I have a script that is a counter that keeps track of how much money the city of SF is collecting from parking tickets.  It works just fine with onclick.  However, I would love for it to start counting when the page opens. I would also love it if there could be commas inserted in between every 3rd number.   

The website is www.findingthesweetspot.com, and the counter to which I am referring is at the top right corner of the home page.  There is another site   www.costofwar.com that autostarts and keeps a live count.  This would be the ultimate goal to have a counter like this one, but with different numbers.  Thanks for your help in advance.

Here is the code:

       





var c=959071;
var t;
function timedCount()
{
document.getElementById('txt').value="$102,"+c;
c=c+1;
t=setTimeout("timedCount()",97);
}


Hi,

Just add the onClick code to a javascript tag UNDER the function.


Code: [Select]<div ID="apDiv33"><FORM>
  <input name="BUTTON" type="button" class="style2" style="font-SIZE: 24px; font-weight: bold; color: #F00;" onClick="()" value=".">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<input name="999" type="text" id="txt" style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold;" value="" size="11" maxlength="11">
</form></div>


<script type="text/javascript"style="font-size: 34px; font-weight: NORMAL;">
var c=959071;
var t;
function timedCount()
{
document.getElementById('txt').value="$102,"+c;
c=c+1;
t=setTimeout("timedCount()",97);
}
timedCount();
</script>

It keep on appearing on my website. It keeps on coming back even if i remove from my editor. How can i get rid of this. very annoying!

Please help me.What is Zonelabs?1: Probably Geocities way of getting their ads onto your page. You didn't think you were getting a free lunch now were you?

Simply put, I don't know how to get rid of it but even if I did there would be little point - Geocities will simply shut the site down for breaking their rules.

2: It's a firewall. Get one.i do have a firewall installed in my PC..etrust EZ antivirus. I have a free pop up blocker activated but still.

I searched my files and found zonelabs folder at    c:/windows/system32/..

tried to delete the folder but failed. 1) It is the stuff Geocities puts in to display it's advertising on the top-right-hand PORTION of your site.

2) Zonelabs is the maker of Zone Alarm a firewall app.So how can I get rid of it? Please help....please! please! Get rid of what? I'll give you two answers, because I'm really quite a nice person at heart:

1 - Getting Rid of Zonealarm
Firstly, EZ Antivirus is, funnily enough, an Antivirus program. It is not a firewall. Ditto for your pop-up blocker. If you're trying to get rid of Zonealarm, use the Add/Remove Programs dialog in the Control PANEL - if you want rid of a virus, you use your Antivirus app to sort it. Not difficult.

2 - Getting Rid of The Adverts
My wording wasn't strong enough, was it? Let's see what Geocities have to say:

I have been WORKING with this for hours, and can't seem to fix it!
All it does is remove the text decoration. The links turn out as a normal link with no style, but without an underline.


Code: [Select]#menuNavagationLink {
background: transparent url('../Images/MenuButtonBg.png') left top repeat-x;
height: 44px;
float: left;
font-family:Arial, Verdana;
font-size:15px;
text-decoration:none;
color:white;
padding: 13px 25px 0px 25px;
border-right: 1px solid #000;
}
I tested your code in Firefox and it seems to work (except for the background image which I do not have).

Can you give an example of the links you are trying to style?
Does it work for you in Internet Explorer but not in Firefox?Hey Bannana97, just curious what VERSION of firefox are you using? Do you have any addons installed? (example: webdevelopers toolbar)

I just pass the variable through the url.,

Just put your JavaScript inside PHP and then set a PHP variable inside the JS.

My client wanted a photo album- i built it in PHP and SQL.  It is sweet and small BUT- the administrator at client-side, is uploading photos of about 2MB.   Hence, when a view looks at the photo gallery, the load time is PAINFUL. 

I WOULD like to SOLVE this problem using this approach:
1) Still let users upload these large pictures.
2) Use PHP to shrink the photos down 50% once they are on the server.

I don't know how to reduce and images ACTUAL size.  I don't MEAN Scale, to be clear.
does anyone here know?Have a look at http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.imagecopyresized.php

Hi, I have recently made an Ajax chatroom while discovering how hard it is to MAKE some features.

Sometimes on other website chatrooms, when someone replies, the tab of the window down at the bottom of your screen (where all your open windows are) FLASH at you (orange on Windows VISTA).

How WOULD I make my window flash in JAVASCRIPT?

Hi guyz.,
  Can someone tell,. why jquery wont work., on a menu within a loop.,

    foreach( $partners as $p_field) {

       print "";
       print  "";
       print  $p_field->name. "[/url]
";
    }

 // script
        $("#showdetails").click(FUNCTION() {
         runEffect();
         return false;
   });

The menu is from the database., I want every time I click a menu,. an effect occur., but my problem is that
the effect works on the first menu only., the and when I click the others menu aside from the first,, they ignore the EFFECTS.,. is there something WRONG with my code???  I already figure it out,,,, I just USE class INSTEAD of id..

I am trying to change the location of the parent window of a window.open-function-made window.

[/code]Save yourself a lot of bother and use the Prototype js library.  Look in the API docs for Ajax.  You'll find lots of other goodies in there too that can make life in javascript a lot less painful.

I'm trying to make it so that there is a form in which a visitor to the web PAGE can input RGB values and click submit to change the background and text colors. This is what I have so far, but when I click submit it reloads to a page with the background color but nothing else. Does anybody know what's wrong with my script? Thank you.

When changing the background color, use the Javascript syntax and not the "document.write()" function.

Use this

I checked it on my test BOARD and it works...hmm, weird, the submit button won't show up. 

Feel free to look at the source code:
[link removed by CrewRite]because it's commented out.

are comments. remove the !-- at the start of the INPUT  tag and the -- at the end.You'll have to add an extra piece of code to get "Submit" button.

Code: [Select]<form name="input" action="html_form_submit.asp" method="get">
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form> K, the script is sorted out now on InternetExplorer and FireFox, but the script won't restrict age.


This is just an example below of what i'd like it to do:

When the USER selects a Birth Date that's considered below 13 years of age or younger, the script pops up a dialog that says:

Sorry, we only allow teens and adults in our site, would you like to exit to Google.com?
[No] [Yes]Anyone, feel like answering? 

Link to site is provided above.  3rd post from this post.

I'll try that script above again, but does not appear to go to any webpage.You'll need to use JS.

Have a look around http://www.dynamicdrive.com/ and http://javascriptkit.com/.

GoogleTried those, including Javascript Internet, but, I won't BOTHER anymore, this age verify thing is not easy to implement.  Discovered that DaniWeb had them.

in my SITE i have a 'news and UPDATES' section, is there a way i can just use CSS FILE to hold the updates and it updates it for every page..so i DONT need to add them to every page..nevermind, fixed it

Hello

Can anyone point me in the right direction on how I can implement a menu which changes the content within a page as apposed to loading a new page please?

Heres an example SITE: http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/

Screenshot:



I'd like to accomplish the same thing (menu on the left (graphic) which changes item/content on right within same page).

I think it's a javascript?

Thanks

The Perl Script is flawless tested, and I have even attempted to run other peoples perl scripts as .cgi or .PL locally on this system to get it working before broadcasting at http://127.0.0.1:80/cgi-bin/test.cgi and same 500 error.


Apache 2.2.8 & Perl 5.10.1.1006 are both INSTALLED on this system with default installation paths and the platform is Windows XP PRO SP3 x86

I am almost wondering if Apache needs a pointer to Perl on how to handle the CGI script or maybe I am off the beaten path. ANYONE have any suggestions?

Hey!!
I'm working on my own website, and since it's a RPG deticated site it's pretty importent to me that a dice roller is added to the PAGE...

I should probably tell that I'm very new to html and I basicly made the site, by using an easy website creation program... allthough I know a bit of html codes and tags, but NOTHING big...

The dice roller should be accesable from the post screen so when you write a post, you can add your rolls message so everybody can see you're not CHEATING...

If anyone could HELP me... it would be great..
But please let a describtion on how this is doen follow, or I'll get lost in it...   You definately won't get it done with HTML. Try using either Flash or Javascript.

www.webmonkey.com may help.

I'm looking for a good book to read for web designers. Mostly programming books

useful books for things I might need for building my own web site. I'm good with HTML

and CSS so I was THINKING about some programming books maybe. I've been teaching

myself basic things using w3schools.com , and was wondering if ANYONE knew any good

books for further my education. Right now I'm working on making a cross browser

mouseover menu, but every book I look at doesn't explain very well what each part of

 their code does. If anyone knew of any good books web sites ect that would help

me please post thanks.I'm not sure if you are interested in learning PHP, but this is a great site that I have FOUND for that!

Right now I'm working on making a cross browser

mouseover menu, ...

We need a program that will remind users when they log in to the high school's website they need to fill out a certain form.  Parents need to fill out forms on line and we need a program that will make sure they do.  I've seen these on other sites, just don't know what the program is called.  The user can bypass the form by indicating "remind me later" until a certain date and then must fill out the form to proceed.  Recommendations on specific software would also be appreciated.

Parents need to fill out forms on line and we need a program that will make sure they do.

For some REASON, this changes the "input" values, but does not move the DIV.

Code: [Select]<BODY>

<form name="SHOW">
X <input type="text" name="MouseX" value="0" size="4"><br>
Y <input type="text" name="MouseY" value="0" size="4"><br>
</form>

<script language="JavaScript1.2">
<!-- Begin
var IE = document.all?true:false;
if (!IE) document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEMOVE)
document.onmousemove = getMouseXY;
var tempX = 0;
var tempY = 0;
function getMouseXY(e) {
if (IE) { // grab the x-y pos.s if browser is IE
tempX = event.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft;
tempY = event.clientY + document.body.scrollTop;
}
ELSE {  // grab the x-y pos.s if browser is NS
tempX = e.pageX;
tempY = e.pageY;
} 
if (tempX < 0){tempX = 0;}
if (tempY < 0){tempY = 0;} 
document.Show.MouseX.value = tempX;
document.Show.MouseY.value = tempY;
xmla.style.position.top = tempY;
xmla.style.position.left = tempX;
return true;
}
//  End -->
</script>


<div id="xmla" style="border: 1px black dashed; POSITION:absolute;">
Moving..
</div>These lines:

Code: [Select]xmla.style.position.top = tempY;
xmla.style.position.left = tempX;
should READ:

Code: [Select]xmla.style.top = tempY;
xmla.style.left = tempX;

Ive started this PHP/MYSQL TUTORIAL. I know a little bit about PHP because i looked at the tutorial on this site about it and APARENTLY that should be enough for me to know...

on this tutorial: http://www.freewebmasterhelp.com/tutorials/phpmysql/2

im stuck on the HEADING 'Creating The Table In PHP', i'm not 100% sure what my username,password and database name is because there is so many users and passes on this host...

also i want to know if i just put that straight into a NOTEPAD then save as 'name.php'?

I said IF it works, not try and MAKE it work (lol), but it gives me Warnings anyways:


if(!include("docs/function.list.php")) {
include("../docs/function.list.php");
}Don't know too much about PHP, but LOOKS to me as THOUGH you're just TRYING to loop docs/function.list.php until it works, and obviously, that's erroneous in PHP programming.use file_exists() rather then using include the first time:

CODE: [Select]
if(file_exists("docs/function.list.php"))
{

include("docs/function.list.php");
}
else
{
include("../docs/function.list.php");

}

Yeah I found that out 5 minutes after this thread. . . .

Hi,

I am trying to start a new session of ms dos under windows xp,. and I do not know where to PUT the config.sys file in order for the windows to read it...

Please help ASAP

thanks in advanceGood grief.  How is this related to Web Design?  Post your question in Dos or Windows.Wow - what a project.    XP does not have Dos, just an emulator.   What version of Dos are you trying to run and what makes you think Windows XP will read a config.sys file?   What changes are you trying to MAKE to the configuration which was SET up at boot time?

Please get back & let us know

Thanks Quote

Hello

Been at this for an hour now but can't seem to get an image to align properly inside a table cell:



As you can see, I'm getting a large MARGIN above/below the cell where I've entered the image, if I remove the image the cell is perfect (like the cells below)

HTML I'm using:

Code: [Select]<td class="gridflag"&GT; <img width="15" height="10" align="left" valign="middle" src="img/flags/euro.gif" /> <p style="color:#FFFFFF; text-align:left">9</p></td>
CSS:

Code: [Select].gridflag {
background: #0E0E0E;
border: SOLID 1px #1D1D1D;
padding: 1px;
margin: 0px;
font-size: x-small;
font-family: TAHOMA;
vertical-align: middle;
letter-spacing: normal;
text-align: center;
line-height: 9px;
text-indent: 1px;}
Please help  Only taken a quick look but - if image 10px high and you have css saying 1px padding then - is this just too much for the cell to hold without expanding vertically?  Plus you have font x-small too.

Just wondering if making image smaller might help or enlarge font size.  Not sure right now if line-height is another factor - but too late in day to GO any further!

In the past I have used a Form with mailto: to pass the data to me from my website from people entering information via e-mail.

I took courses in HTML, but the courses never covered Forms passing data to a database etc. One drawback to the local community college instructing HTML1 and HTML2 is the lack of showing integration with real life data systems such as Forms to MYSQL Database.

Any suggestions on where I can learn step-by-step how to set up a Form that passes data to a database such as MYSQL? All I have found is info on MYSQL and info on Forms, but nothing showing an integration of both to set one up and build from.

As far as databases go I am hip on Access 97 and 2000, but understand that I will need to also learn MYSQL which I have one of those Teach Yourself MYSQL in 24 hrs books as well as I grabbed a SQL book in case MYSQL wont do, but I heard it should do just about everything that SQL does.Sorry Dave - there's one more essential piece in this jigsaw.  You'll be passing data from the server end of the CONNECTION, so you need a server-side programming language.  Your options are PHP, Python, Ruby, Perl, ASP and a host of other lesser-knowns.  I would go for PHP because of the overwhelmingly good documentation and shallow learning curve.  You really need a PHP+MySQL book/tutorial - then you'll be all set.Hey ROB... Thanks!

I will go to borders tonight and see if they have one to dig into.

I am familiar with Perl, but will check into PHP if that is better documented and easier to FOLLOW. Once understanding PHP and MySQL then I can play with Perl etc to expand on that.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction once again   Although Perl is excellent, I would go for PHP personally.  You won't FIND the transition difficult, and the support for PHP in a hosted environment is so much better than for Perl.

I designed the site with FrontPage (the Kurdish language ) and when do I offer to Internet Explorer, no problem. But when do I offer to Firefox. Lines appear overlapping. And I have ANOTHER problem. For example, wrote a sentence at the top of the page. When do I have on offer. Firefox appears bottom of the page or to the RIGHT or LEFT of the page What is the problemWelcome to the *censored* that is trying to support multiple browsers. Pages might work in one, but totally go crazy in another.

Can't do a lot from this end unless we can LOOK at the source. Basically, you have to design your site for Firefox and then design it for Internet Explorer.  But I have never used FrontPage, so I don't know if it has an easy way for you to do this.Frontpage is like a terd on a tree stump in the distance. From afar it looks like a tasty morsel of fine belgian chocolate, but as you get closer to it you realize that it's just a terd on a stump. an old, rotting stump and a freshly deposited turd, that almost metaphorically taunts you, because you wasted your time walking over to the stump.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is FrontPage is more or less catered to Internet Explorer... which isn't surprising given they are both MS products.I've never used FrontPage, but the thing you describe is a common problem with cross browsing. Use CSS and with enough practice you'll be OK. If you need any particular help with some page you'd do better posting source as well as the decription

I'm trying to UPLOAD a video through CPANEL into my file MANAGER area.  It uploads, but it isn't a video when it uploads.  Cpanel changes it to a text file.  How do I upload a video so that I can use code to make it viewable on my website?  I don't want to use a third PARTY service like you tube either.

How do you know cPanel changes it to a text file?  Is it readable? What coding are you using in your web page to embed the video in the page?

This may help: http://www.w3schools.com/flash/flash_inhtml.aspFirst get it to work in a HTML page on your local machine.

Can you CONNECT a Website on a Host to a MYSQL database from a database?? i am trying to use a register form and it DOESNT work when its on my host, but when i use that register form on my PC it works (the database is hosted on my pc)Yes you can remotely connect to a database- IF YOUR HOST ALLOWS IT.  otherwise you're SOL.  My host is netfimirms they give me the option to allow remote connections.  Of course, when you connect remotely the name 'LocalHost' will no LONGER be enough, you will require the name of the databse you are connecting to and it's IP.  ask your hosting company for these things.

Need an explanation of "document type declaration".  I have had about 70-80 html pages on the internet in 3 different websites, all without a document type declaration.  I don't"
1)understand the function/purpose of such a declaration and
2)don't know how to DETERMINE which of the following ones APPLY to me:
--- for HTML 4.01 Strict documents, http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> should be the first line.

--- For HTML 4.01 Transitional documents, the first line should be http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">.

--- For HTML 4.01 Frameset documents, the first line should be http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd">.  Thanks


I Is this homework?
The topic "document type declaration" with reference to HTML has to do with the evolution of HTML over the past few YEARS. HTML is supposed to be a standard now. Or soon will be. Real soon. Maybe.

Quote

HTML 4.01 Strict does not allow presentational markup with the ARGUMENT that Cascading Style Sheets should be used for that instead

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

<form action="MAILTO:<yourcensoredemailaddress&GT;" method="POST" enctype="text/plain">


The code is right, your problem is the following:
Quote

That's so easy; what could possibly be wrong with it? What's wrong is that it makes assumptions that may not be valid and, as a result, it is very unreliable.. It assumes that:

    * The user's browser knows what to do with a mailto link
    * The user has e-mail client software INSTALLED and properly configured
    * The user's e-mail software knows what to do with a mailto url
    * The user's security settings allow this to happen without PROMPTING with a security alert

Let's consider some of the things that can go wrong:

    * The user uses a webmail service, like hotmail
    * The user is using a public computer at a library or Internet cafe
    * The user uses a browser or e-mail software that doesn't recognize the mailto
    * The user's security settings cause a prompt, alerting the user of a potential security problem

If none of those apply, your form results will be sent like you wanted.

While I AGREE that it may be the most TECHNICALLY REWARDING way, it is not ALWAYS the most expedient.true

hello i have a very SIMPLE web server running at my house and have written most of the html from scratch, yes I do mean notepad =).  my question: is there anyway i can list the file contents inside a folder without typing out a new link everytime? any help would be greatly appreciated, thanksBest way to do it is using PHP. I'm not going to go into detail (too much info), but you can do it with PHP. www.php.net
well, i've tried looking for what i WANT but can't find it.. so LINKS to a site where i have to go find exactly what im looking for is kinda of pointless for me.. which is basically why im here.. kind of a "all else failed" type situation.

maybe "detail" would be nice.okay, check out this link....
http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.readdir.php
I think that's the php function you would want to use. It retrieves a list of files in a directory and inserts it into an array. Then, you will have to make the php script walk through the array, PRINTING each element as it goes.

If you look through www.phpbuilder.net, you may be able to find a FULL script already written that you can just copy and paste.

i was wondering if there is any way to get the window dimensions right as SOMEONE opens a window. maybe not, but i thought maybe i could use the Code: [Select]<body background="/bg.jpg" bgproperties="fixed" width="+width_of_window+" height="+height_of_window+"> so that the background picture will fill up the background without having to repeat it.
and if theres a way to ACHIEVE this affect, please let me knowYes, you get Javascripts to do such a task (normally it's in the guise of a screen resolution detector) but I'm not liking you're plan of action.

Personally, I wouldn't do it because it sounds like a very tacky effect (unless you can somehow pull it off, which -no offence - is not likely). But if I did want to do it, I'd get a few background images to cope with the different RESOLUTIONS, and use a bit of javascript or another scripting language to pick the appropriate file.

But that's just me. This site offers a script you might like (you may need to adapt it slightly):
http://www.pageresource.com/jscript/jscreen.htm

Alternatively, you could use CSS to centre the background image. Obviously you'll have the white background showing through at the edges but if it doesn't affect your design too much...I wouldn't do that - to much work. What I would suggest is to make a new layer which you make 100% wide and tall. Then put the picture in it also 100% wide and tall. Finally you need to put the layer to the background by setting the z-order to -1.

That's it. Works in IE, dunno about other browsers

I have this done in my website: http://bots.sscentral.com/mavRead the post that you made on the other board..... It can't be possible...

[glb]Flame[/glb]Actually Flame, I think BJ (If that's your real name, I sure feel sorry for you - you must have SUFFERED years of torment in school for those INITIALS ) wants to get the screen resolution so that he can get a background picture - stored on the server locally - to fill the screen, not the desktop-background problem.

I'd like to put a [graphic] frame AROUND a photo, and then post the photo on a web page. Does anybody KNOW someplace on the web i could look, or suggest a program that will do that [put the frame on the photo]? Or any other advice TOWARDS that? 

Thanks in advance.    TRY Jalbum.CSS borders could also do the trick, but would be a bit more difficult.Thanks Rob, Ill take a look.

And yes, I heard about them there CSS thangs. Guess I gotta actually learn what they are, eh? I'll look in to it.

Thanks both.rob jalbum is an album maker. no photo manipulation. I NEED a software that can add frames and then add the altered picture to a websiteOh, okay - I misunderstood your needs, sorry.  You could do this kind of thing with something like Macromedia Fireworks.  It's a nice program, but a little expensive.  I'm not sure of any free/cheap alternatives I'm afraid.

Title is wrong , correct one should be :
Do you use MIN/MAX-WIDTH and MIN/MAX-HEIGHT ??


I am building a liquid layout with percentage and wonder if I have to use MIN/MAX-WIDTH and MIN/MAX-HEIGHT , knowing that IE 6 and earlier versions do not support it.
Do you use them ?
Is there any rule available to avoid the bug ?
Nightmare area of browser incompatibility.  There are LOTS of hacks out there DESIGNED to get around this PROBLEM.  For example:

http://perishablepress.com/press/2008/05/19/css-hackz-series-minimum-width-maximum-width-for-internet-explorer-6/
http://www.cssplay.co.uk/boxes/minwidth.html

I'm sure you can find more...Yes I still use those. You can avoid the bug by ADDING an empty(but with an   ) div with a fixed size(e.g. 150px) to the container which has a min width/height and set the container to 100%. The container will be 100% or 150px(which ever is larger). For the maximum width/height there will PROBABLY be a similar solution but I never use max, I use just fixed sizes for that.
I use min-height all the time, still.

to make it work in IE 6/7/8, and Firefox (and all other recent browsers), use this:

min-height: 150px;
height: auto !important;
height: 150px;

It simply WORKS. Perfectly.

As for max-height or min/max width..... why bother? There are ways to make min-width with percentages but are you really that concerned?[link Removed]

how to disable save option in file menu of the browser?If this is to prevent your copyright-protected material from being downloaded, then the only reliable way of doing this is to not upload it in the first place. No matter how you try to protect it, there will be a way to get the content. Even if it's just copying and PASTING the text off your page.

Basically, don't expect miracles, because you sure ain't gonna get one.

That said, I think I may have a solution. I've never SEEN ANYTHING that could specifically disable the Save option - at LEAST without having you go round to the person's house and install software on their machine before they visit the site - but I do know of a Javascript which will open up a pop-up window without some of the browser chrome (ie the toolbars, scrollbars, status BARS etc).

I think this link will explain all (it's actually a part of a much larger tutorial, which may also be of use):

http://www.devshed.com/c/a/JavaScript/Controlling-Browser-Properties-with-JavaScript/1/

Being Javascript, however, it is easily disabled. Told you not to expect miracles.yup exactly

thats the most you can do.

However people can still get the name of the page you are opening into the popup window (not to mention IE blocks popups) and open the page in a normal window - unless you scramble the javascript.
