Solve : Difficulty with navigation bar? |

Answer» Hello all. I am new here and brand spanking new to web design, but I'm trying to help a family friend set up a more professional looking website for his Hapkido school and I'm writing completely raw HTML (with which I am mostly familiar) and doing some copy/paste CSS (which I am completely new to using). I was given a design by the grand master of the school, because someone else was supposed to have done the website for them months ago and then disappeared. So, the website is, more or less, supposed to look like this: |

Solve : PHP contact form & issues with IE/4:3 ratio resolutions? |
|
Answer» Hello. I am currently working on a new design for a current website and I have a few questions, as I'm really rather new to this. First, I am trying to create a .php sort of contact form so that it will SEND immediately to the email address of the school's owner, however, every tutorial I have tried ends up giving me errors when I put the code into effect. When I try just HTML, an empty email pops up with the information necessary in the body of the email, but that's not what I'm looking for. What am I doing wrong? |

Solve : HTML location? |

Answer» Hello community, --- I know your trying to help, but ususally replies have to have something to do with the question !! Quote from: Lay Berls on May 16, 2011, 04:05:43 AM --- That does not make sense! Removed pointless post from above.I've never done this before, but I would imagine that if the verification is simple you could use a javascript SCRIPT to verify and redirect users to an appropriate page, or if it's a more complex validation you could make the form send the data to a PHP script which would validate and then redirect users BASED on a set of conditions. |

Solve : Page won't display in IE7, but works in Firefox and Chrome? |
|
Answer» I am working on a website and just started checking cross browser compatibility. Most PAGES on the site work just fine across all browsers, but one PAGE (so far) absolutely will not display in IE7. It gives the "can not display webpage" error and suggests that I have a connection problem, but it's clearly NOT a connection problem because I can see the page in other browsers. It would be nice if IE would just spit out a more specific error, but that would be too easy. |

Solve : Favicon shows in Firefox but not in IE8 or Chrome? |
|
Answer» I am making a website and I've DESIGNED a favicon. Code: [Select]<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="favicon.ico" />That should work if the icon is in the same folder as the file it's supposed to appear on. Note, still didn't work. And I've tried using an absolute link to the icon, and still doesn't work. In case there's something wrong with the icon itself, I've attached it to this post. (Remove the GIF extension!) [attachment deleted by admin] Quote (Remove the GIF extension!)That's the problem! What did you use to create it? Paint? Go here: http://www.favicongenerator.com/ Upload the file, and it will convert it to an .ico file. You can then download the proper file. The problem is that you were linking to an .ico file, when in fact the icon was a .gif file. Quote from: kpac on July 28, 2009, 05:37:54 AM That's the problem! It's a valid ICO file, I just added the .GIF extension so I could upload it to the forum. I created the icon file using IcoFX. I tried favicongenerator but when I uploaded a 16x16 PNG file, it just returned a black image file (Not a proper icon), and with a GIF file, it returned an icon but without transparency.Hmm....This is quite strange. How are you looking at the file, i.e. are you viewing it from your PC or is the site on the WEB?The website files are currently local on my PC. I do have a spare page on Freewebs (HTML, not one of their template pages) which I could try the favicon with. Result: It works, IE and Chrome probably have some sort of issue with Favicons used locally. The icon should then work once I've uploaded my page onto the web. Thanks for your HELP kpac. Quote The icon should then work once I've uploaded my page onto the web.Yes, that's what I'm thinking too. I use a testing server here on my own PC, but most of the time the icon doesn't show up until it's on the Web. Maybe that's the case here too. Anyways, I'm glad to help. I am having the exact same problem. Works in FIREFOX but not IE or Chrome. I tried using the favicon generator and no change at all. Also I stupidly overwrote my old favicon with the new one but the old one looked a lot better. It was transparent which looks much nicer than a white background. Can anybody tell me how to fix both of these things? http://www.singledudetravel.com/ is my site. Your favicon is supposed to be at http://www.singledudetravel.com/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/favicon/favicon.ico. Right? That's what your web page file indicates. Yet, the URL for the favicon does not show it. Therefore, you apparently have not uploaded your favicon to that folder on your web server. I was not aware of that because it was working always on Firefox and thats what I used until recently. Doing what you suggested fixed chrome but not IE (at least not the latest version). Does anybody know how to fix IE? What about how to generate my favicon with a transparent background? I know I had it before and I know others have pulled it off like zerohedge.com and elance.com for example. Thank you.If you have Photoshop, here's a reference on creating a transparent favicon: http://mintywhite.com/more/software-more/create-a-transparent-favicon-for-your-website/ I'm not sure about your issue with IE. Great tutorial, thanks a lot. AND doing that fixed the IE problem somehow too! Thanks!Glad to hear it's all sorted. IE does not support some .ico file. It can DISPLAY windows icon file for favicon. |

See here for info on updating VALUES: http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_mysql_update.asp Also, this code is very unsecure and is LIABLE to SQL injection: Code: [Select]$targetID=$_POST['id']; $date=date("Y/n/d"); $id=$_POST['id']; $category=$_POST['category']; $subcategory=$_POST['subcategory']; $date=$_POST['date']; To solve this, do a strip_tags on all these variables.strip_tags? more like mysql_real_escape_string()... or possibly some combination of both.Yeah, I should have said strip_tags to prevent XSS and ESCAPE them to prevent SQLI. |

Solve : Table in HTML? |
|
Answer» Ref: www.fedbens.us please i want some example how i can use css in html table.. You need to start your own thread as hijacking someones elses thread is bad forum etiquetteI think Microsoft Expression Web 4 does well. It has a WYSIWYG editor and a HTML editor (where you can actually edit your HTML code itself) built into one, so you can do both. By the way, it is free if you get it from link I listed above. Also may want to look at this w3school css tutorial part regarding tables, GOOD source for information, if you're willing to look into the actual codings instead of letting an editor do it all for you.The tag defines an HTML table. |

Solve : I can't figure out how to make a box on my webpage? |
|
Answer» Hello, I think you are trying to change the page background color using CSS, that's fine but look to the <body>, the attribute bgcolor is set to #ccc change it or I prefere to remove it and control the color from CSSWhere do you see that in his CSS? I see no INDICATION of that. I've tried changing the color for the bgcolor... but that MAKES the whole page the same color. I want the bg one color and then a white text box I can write in..Start from the beginning. Think of a web page as a series of layers. On the bottom, you have the , which you have at a light pink. What you need to do is add another layer on TOP of the and put your text in that. Here's the code. Code: [Select]<body style="background:pink;"> <DIV style="width:800px; background: #fff"> <!-- content goes here --> </div> </body> You can use either style="whatever" or bgcolor="whatever". Using CSS (style) is probably better nowadays.thanks kpac, that sure gave me a white box to type in, and thats great... however, thats not what I need... if you go to my page and refresh you'll see. What i'm wanting is a pink bg and the whole center of that page to be white... like when you put a pic on construction paper in a frame.. http://sugrbean.com/newlook3.htmli've tried it here also cant get it to work http://sugrbean.com/newlook5.html |

Solve : How to Make Text Flow Around an Image? |
|
Answer» In my content pane, I would like to position an image at the left or right margin and have text flow around it. I'm not an HTML EXPERT by any stretch of the imagination, but I can generally understand and insert HTML code. I created the page in Dreamweaver 4 (running inside a virtual Windows XP partition in Windows 7--didn't want to have to spend big money for a Dreamweaver upgrade), but Dreamweaver does not seem to have a canned way to do what I need. A long time ago, I stumbled across an article that really opened my eyes to the possibilities, wrapping text tightly around an image. The website that carried that article is sadly now deceased, but the page is archived >here< and well worth a look. This is known as the "sandbag" technique.Must say that's a great idea. Never thought of something like that. Quote from: kpac on August 09, 2011, 08:26:37 AM Welcome back Rob. Cheers! |

Quote from: kpac on August 02, 2011, 06:36:07 AM I don't think the dark background goes with the orange to be honest. Also frames are not a good idea.

Solve : Strange question re: trouble viewing specific site? |

Answer» I'm thinking, it may be some DNS issue with a server. ; <<>> DiG 9.3.6-P1-RedHat-9.3.6-4.P1.el5_5.3 <<>> www.hockey4hope.org I'm not experienced with this side of things so I'm not sure if this identifies the problem or not, but I thought the more INFO I could provide the better.I just tried to view the site in IE; it didn't work. So, I'm quite sure I can not view it regardless of what browser I try. Are you affiliated with http://www.hockey4hope.com? http://www.hockey4hope.com already exists and is much more than a single-page website and it is a charity-oriented website. So, why are you developing http://www.hockey4hope.org ? Not that the reasoning behind the site is an issue, but they are different charities. I am only affiliated in the sense that I am the web-designer (and I handle the maintenance of the site). And I know for a fact that just because there is another charity with the same (similar) name, and a .com website with the same address as my .org has nothing to do with why only 2 people can't see the site when everyone else can. And I don't have a problem viewing the site in IE, on a Mac or PC. I'm really confused by this problem.Ok, more research the site does not have a dedicated IP address, but none of my sites do since everything is on the same server, which is my server. Not sure if this helps or explains anything but it's still more info to work with.It must be something on your end (i.e. server). I can't access it either, just get a Server Not Found error.If that's the case why can 90% of people see it and only a handful having a problem? And why can no one have a problem seeing the other sites that are also on that server? Check and see if you can get to some of the others - www.rivercitybats.com www.leddthanperfectsaint.com |

Solve : What do you look for in a good hosting company?? |
|
Answer» So what do you look for in a good hosting company, some people like unmetered and some people like limited specs etc but what do you WANT and for what price??? I want ulimited bandwith, an easy ot use cpanel, intergrated ftp and a basic site maker, lots of storage and all for under £15 a month Quote from: immental1200 on August 01, 2011, 12:12:20 PM I want ulimited bandwith, an easy ot use cpanel, intergrated ftp and a basic site maker, lots of storage and all for under £15 a month Thanks for your sensable commentThere are so many good hosts, it is hard to pick just one. But you need to be suspicious to those who claim they can offer real bargain service and get everything you want. Asking for unlimited anything is not reasonable. Specify want you want an shop PRUDENTLY. Now take a look at this: http://www.1and1affiliate.com/tips/press-affiliate-news/unlimited-traffic/ Do y0u think they could really, really offer unlimited anything? Even with fiber optics, the servers themselves have finite NUMBER of CPUs and a finite bus bandwidth inside the box. And if one has unlimited bandwidth, then why do some customers pay three and fours times as much as what the OP stated, 15 ponds. Dedicated servers lease for about $150 per month, more or less. It GIVES as much bandwidth as nit can. These people want to talk to you first, then tell you want you need: http://www.rackspace.com/hosting_solutions/ But don't let them talk you into want you do not need. In the UK, check out http://34sp.com for competitive prices. And no, I am not part of any of them. Just trying to be helpful. Forgot to mention: http://netobjects.com/ For some, it could be a good choice. Quote from: Geek-9pm on August 08, 2011, 05:14:33 PM There are so many good hosts, it is hard to pick just one. 34sp is alright but for a beginner its ctrl panel isnt the best to get around and thanks for your postYes, 34sp.com has a very spartan control panel. You said you were a beginner. Many hosts offer cpanel, which has most of what you need. Also, Most hosts will let you log directly into the shell if you have a premium account. With you own server, that is what you already have. But you want a GUI that makes things easier to manage - Right? BTW: Many professionals prefer to do the whole site in WordPress. Why? Just because. I really don't know why. They just do. Quote from: joethomas3000 on July 26, 2011, 09:29:38 AM what do you look for in a good hosting companyThe hosting company doesn't upgrade systems or change things arbitrarily... Quote from: Rob Pomeroy on August 11, 2011, 06:20:29 AM The hosting company doesn't upgrade systems or change things arbitrarily... Gotta agree with this .... was using a company recently and they posted notifications about upgrading the other servers. My servers name wasn't listed so I assumed it would be OK, Then when I started getting errors, they told me it was being upgraded... helpful ! Quote from: joethomas3000 on July 26, 2011, 09:29:38 AM So what do you look for in a good hosting companyHow do they provide support to clients? Many low cost hosting services have a support forum and may provide email support. For telephone support, you'll probably have to look at a higher price level. Do they have a setup fee? How does billing work? Can you elect to pay by month or do they lock you in to paying for a year to get started? Do they offer features such as easy forum installation in case you want to have a forum on your website? Reliability. You won't be a happy camper if you find your site down at various times. Back to topic. Here is an item of interest. http://beta.dreamhost.com/ I have no idea of the quality of this company. But what they did right was a very nice professional looking, IMHO, home page. It would appear that they at least spent some time and money on a nice presentation. And they tell you right up front what you get and what it costs.

Uh ... bad link Or the sites down :L Quote from: immental1200 on August 16, 2011, 02:58:36 PM Uh ... bad link LOL The site is down! Well, mark that none off.The problem with hosts that offer cheap services and unlimited everything is that they oversell a lot. It's not worth it to go with a cheap host that will disappoint you. Choose a host that has a great reputation. I've been using WestHost for 3 or 4 years and I've always loved it. |

Answer» I am trying to put a Weather widget on the HOME page. I got it centered ( i know easy) but i would like to have it to the right SIDE of the page and down about a 1/3 of the way. Can someone explain to me how i do that? Make a table. Argh! >This page< deals nicely with two issues: the best way to centre items horizontally and why vertical positioning of the type suggested is a pain in the neck. It can be done, but it's usually a trick involving either javascript or Flash. Accessibility is my number one reason why not to use tables for layout, but there are many others. Quote from: Geek-9pm on August 24, 2011, 11:16:14 PM Make a table. Put transparent GIF in the table.Yeah that would totally be a stylistically acceptable and often used method. ... If it was 1996. |

Solve : The Biggest Web Design Trends of 2011? |

Answer» 1. Less Use of Flash It is not the fact that Flash is not a great technology...(when used appropriately it is)...but in the past year or so it has been over used, misused, abused to the point that it has developed a bad reputation. Certainly, the ongoing shenanigans between Adobe (creator of Flash) and Apple (iPhone and iPad) are not helping the situation. Today, websites need to have a clean, uncluttered design, fast loading and above all must be Search Engine friendly. This is a problem for Flash and now with the coming of the new web coding languages of HTML5 and CSS3, together with the explosive growth of web surfing on mobile devices perhaps it is the beginning of the end of Flash in web design. I heard somewhere that flash is not recommended by SEO experts .If it is true then why thousands of website are using Flash. IMHO... 1. People like "rich content" (little videos). 2. Flash as a format has become widespread on the desktop market; one estimate is that 95% of PCs have it, while Adobe claims that 98 percent of U.S. web users and 99.3 percent of all Internet desktop users have installed the Flash Player, with 92 to 95% (depending on region) having the latest version. 3. Whether Flash is SEO suicide depends on which "SEO expert" you're listening to. Certainly Flash has had a bad rep with search engine operators because of its use for cloaking and spamming and because of lazy or careless site design, but if alternative content is a faithful representation of the Flash content then SEO need not be a problem, I have "heard somewhere". 4. SEO isn't everything. 1. Is "the new web coding languages of HTML5 and CSS3" really going to replace Flash for the vast amount of streaming media now on the web? I'll have to see it to believe it. 4. This seems to conflict with #2 and #3. How would large photographic images be effectively used in web content for small mobile devices? Even, for PCs, this notion of Large Photographic Backgrounds would still be huge waste of bandwidth. Many newer web developers have drifted away from the practice of optimizing graphics for the web, that was much more common in the days of widespread dailup Internet access, due to the growth of broadband Internet access. But, even with my DSL connection, I sometimes encounter a website where I need to wait for images on the page to download. This is usually the result of total ignorance of the web developer regarding image optimization. They'll take a photo from ... what? ... a recent model digital camera, which nowadays can mean something in the range of 10MP or higher resolution photos - just one photo may be 2 -3 MB and over 2K pixels in width - and then they put that photo on a webpage where they're forcing the browser to display it at much smaller dimensions. What they should be doing is resizing the photo BEFORE using it on the web. But, ignorance or laziness gets in the way. So, I think we'll have to wait and see for the FINAL verdict on the use of Large Photographic Backgrounds. I agree with this 5 posted trends ideas, just wondering if its your personal opinion/observation or from a survey or anything. thanks. |

Solve : Help pls..Numbers into words? |

Answer» Hello I want to change it in to a java code instead so it can work on internet explorer page. Also, post the code you have at the moment.Ok Well I'm new to coding so I guess javascript My Programming Code Is...... /* * Function: number_to_words * Description: recursive numerics to words function * Converts a given integer (in range [0..1T-1], inclusive) into * alphabetical format ("one", "two", etc.) * int * return string */ function number_to_words($number) { if (($number < 0) || ($number > 999999999)) { throw new Exception("Number is out of range"); } $Gn = floor($number / 1000000); /* Millions (giga) */ $number -= $Gn * 1000000; $kn = floor($number / 1000); /* Thousands (kilo) */ $number -= $kn * 1000; $Hn = floor($number / 100); /* Hundreds (hecto) */ $number -= $Hn * 100; $Dn = floor($number / 10); /* Tens (deca) */ $n = $number % 10; /* ONES */ $result = ""; if ($Gn) { $result .= number_to_words($Gn) . " Million"; } if ($kn) { $result .= (empty($result) ? "" : " ") . number_to_words($kn) . " Thousand"; } if ($Hn) { $result .= (empty($result) ? "" : " ") . number_to_words($Hn) . " Hundred"; } $ones = array("", "One", "Two", "Three", "Four", "Five", "Six", "Seven", "Eight", "Nine", "Ten", "Eleven", "Twelve", "THIRTEEN", "Fourteen", "Fifteen", "Sixteen", "Seventeen", "Eightteen", "Nineteen"); $tens = array("", "", "Twenty", "Thirty", "Fourty", "Fifty", "Sixty", "Seventy", "Eigthy", "Ninety"); if ($Dn || $n) { if (!empty($result)) { $result .= " and "; } if ($Dn < 2) { $result .= $ones[$Dn * 10 + $n]; } ELSE { $result .= $tens[$Dn]; if ($n) { $result .= "-" . $ones[$n]; } } } if (empty($result)) { $result = "zero"; } return $result; } That's PHP. All you do is called the number_to_words function, i.e. Code: [Select]<?php number_to_words(560); ?>...should return "five hundred and sixty".yea but What I mean Is, I've opened up text Document and TYPED in the html,head,script,body & html the Basic stuff and I've placed it in between the Placed it here and when I open It it doesn't do anything just shows me the code. I don't know anything about php. Quote I've opened up text Document and typed in the html,head,script,body & html the Basic stuff and I've placed it in between the <script>Placed it here</script> and when I open It it doesn't do anything just shows me the code.That's the problem. Here: http://javascript.about.com/library/bltoword.htm More: Goooooogleyea I was hoping to change 1-24 into words that I type in ie:- 1 = pasta 2 = chips 3 = pie 4 = soup 5 = shreddies etc etc Say I type 24 words and it changes all my numbers into those words To be honest, all the hard work has been done for you. Converting the code from PHP to javascript is not that difficult. Do you want someone to do the whole exercise for you? You might be interested in trying http://www.vworker.com/ - there are coders in India that would do something like this for $5 or so. |

Answer» can any one please tell me all additional softwares i NEED to download before installing joomla.Is there any special way of installing it?I think its better than writing series of html codesJoomla is just one of many free systems to organize your web page design. Joomla is a free and open source content management system (CMS) for publishing content on the WORLD Wide Web and intranets and a model–view–controller (MVC) Web application framework that can also be used independently. But you could have found that with a Google search. Do you have any idea of how deep this goes? Do you understand what PHP is? Do you have an idea of what SQL is? Have you unwritten any amount of HTML code? With CSS? To test your code you will need either a remote server, or else the equivalent on you local system. Not TRYING to discourage you or anything like that. Your name indicates this is NEW stuff for you. But hang on. There are many here who will help you with your goal to learn how to design web pages.You might ask in http://forum.joomla.org/ |
