I would recommend W3Schools to anyone, no matter how much they know about web design.

I second that. Even some of us who have been designing for years use this as a regular reference. Web design is something that is constantly growing, changing, and evolving. I started about 10 years ago and I'm still learning new things on a regular basis. And when you start learning more languages, it becomes even more REWARDING!

Solve : Help with Javascript code!?

Answer»

Well, first of all I noticed a tag problem. You somehow have two "" tags. Your other problem is my fault. The size of the images array should be two, not three. Your current example only has two sets of images and links, but the array is sized at three.Ok, so how do I fix the tag problem? Please give me the exact code how it should appear in my page. Also, how do I make it appear in the green box? Here is the correct code. Of course, you'll have to update the links and images to yours to make it work. Try this code on that test page you used before. If this works I'll tell you how to add the image to the green box.

Code: [Select]<HTML>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function random()
{
//The 2 below can be changed to what ever you want
//depending on the number of images/links you have.
VAR images = new Array(2);
images[0] = new Array(2);
images[0][0] = "image0.jpg";
images[0][1] = "page0.html";
images[1] = new Array(2);
images[1][0] = "IMAGE1.jpg";
images[1][1] = "page1.html";
images[2] = new Array(2);
images[2][0] = "image2.jpg";
images[2][1] = "page2.html";

var index = Math.floor(Math.random() * images.length);

document.getElementById("randomImage").src = images[index][0];
document.getElementById("randomLink").href = images[index][1];
}
</script>
</head>

<body onload="random()">
<a id="randomLink" href=""><img id="randomImage" src="" alt="Random Image" /></a>
</body>
</html>
It does work:

http://www.stringsdepotplus.com/news_01.html

So if you can guide me how to make this work on my homepage that will be great. Also, if possbible how to add the alt text for each image seperately. Place this code between the head tags.

Code: [Select]<script type="text/javascript">
function random()
{
//The 2 below can be changed to what ever you want
//depending on the number of images/links you have.
var images = new Array(2);
images[0] = new Array(2);
images[0][0] = "image0.jpg";
images[0][1] = "page0.html";
images[1] = new Array(2);
images[1][0] = "image1.jpg";
images[1][1] = "page1.html";
images[2] = new Array(2);
images[2][0] = "image2.jpg";
images[2][1] = "page2.html";

var index = Math.floor(Math.random() * images.length);

document.getElementById("randomImage").src = images[index][0];
document.getElementById("randomLink").href = images[index][1];
}
</script>

Add the function call to your body tag.

Code: [Select]<body onload="random()">

And finally, add this code to wherever your green box is.

Code: [Select]<a id="randomLink" href=""><img id="randomImage" src="" alt="Random Image" /></a>
It works!! Here you can see:

http://www.stringsdepotplus.com/index.php


A few questions:

a) How can I add the alt text to each individual image?
b) If I want to add another image to the alternating group, what code do I need to edit?

Thanks!!Quote

a) How can I add the alt text to each individual image?

To add the alt text to each image you can increase the size of the individual arrays inside the main image array to 3. The increased size will give you a place to place the text. You will then have to access the alt attribute of the image tag.

Quote
b) If I want to add another image to the alternating group, what code do I need to edit?

If you want to add another image to the array you must increase the size of the image array.

Code: [Select]<script type="text/javascript">
function random()
{
//The 3 below can be changed to what ever you want
//depending on the number of images/links you have.
var images = new Array(3);

//First image
images[0] = new Array(3);
images[0][0] = "image0.jpg";
images[0][1] = "page0.html";
images[0][2] = "image0";

//Second image
images[1] = new Array(3);
images[1][0] = "image1.jpg";
images[1][1] = "page1.html";
images[1][2] = "image1";

//Third image
images[2] = new Array(3);
images[2][0] = "image2.jpg";
images[2][1] = "page2.html";
images[2][2] = "image2";

var index = Math.floor(Math.random() * images.length);

document.getElementById("randomImage").src = images[index][0];
document.getElementById("randomLink").href = images[index][1];
document.getElementById("randomImage").alt = images[index][2];
}
</script>
It works. Thanks for all the help. No problem. Thats why were here. If you need more help with this or with other Javascript related issues I will be glad to help. I am also pretty GOOD at CSS so if you need help with that I can assist you as well.

Solve : Need help with html?

Answer»

Hello all,
I am fairly new to HTML. I have pretty much self taught myself what I know of HTML (which isn't much )
I have taken over a website for my company, Updating pictures and content, stuff like that.
The website is in bad shape (done very cheaply, and from what I can tell not very decent job).
It has been pieced and bandaged a bunch. (Wish we could have it redone)
Anyway I'm trying to upload some new images and text. What I have been doing is copy and pasting the code from another set of images and text and then changing the image description and desired text. My problem is that when I copy and paste it, it centers everything below it. I looked for any code that might cause it to center but can't seem to find any. Please help.

Here is the code.
This is with the changes I've made.
The centering problem occurs after the two sets of FOUR images.
With only the original set it is fine.
The origanal set is the second one down.

Good idea. It's impossible to read through all that at the moment.Sorry for the long post. I wasn't sure what was needed. Here is the section with the problem.
Everything after this is centered.

Well, by reading this thread, it's OBVIOUS that you have no idea what you're talking about. Personally, I don't think you should even bother with posting at all if you can't help. In fact, I have never seen you actually help with anything. I know that when you're a teenager, it's cool to look like you know everything, but you're not fooling anyone. Maybe you should work on improving your English and wait until you're about halfway through high school before you start worrying about trying to help people. You need to be able to help yourself first.That would be funny if it where true. I'm a COLLAGE sophmore. I'm about twenty so it wouldnt be funny if you read some of my post. Also, I do help people. Just havent had any luck yet, with doing other things an problems that had been resolved I COULD have done.I don't know what kind of school you claim to go to, but most schools around here teach grammar and spelling; you may want to look into that. Although, you did say "collage"...maybe you're just really good at pasting magazine clippings onto posterboards. In that case, I'm very proud of you for reaching a Sophomore level of collage-making!



Quote
I'm about twenty so it wouldn't be funny if you read some of my post.
What post? What in the world are you talking about? I already don't think it's funny to read any of your posts because quite frankly, I find them to be headache-inducing.


You've GOT over 2000 posts and all you have managed to do is confuse people and get in the way. If you have some sort of learning disability, I'm sorry that you have to struggle harder than the rest of us, but it's no excuse to continually muck things up. Despite how it may appear, I'm a very nice guy and I generally like people, so I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. If you truly do know anything about computers and wish to help out, at least hire an interpretor so people can know what you're talking about.To everyone who reads this: I apologize for behaving in such a manner. This sort of discussion isn't meant to be public and I am setting a bad example here. I'm very stressed and tired, and it's making it hard for me to keep things to myself.

And I apologize to you as well, Squall. I'm not going to take back anything I said, but I am going to try to no longer perpetuate this. If I must say something in the future, I will try to be more civil.

I'm going to go ahead and lock this thread so it can eventually drift away...

Solve : screen width problem?

Answer»

I have a problem in webpage that all things are OK in making webpage but there is problem of
screen width. I make a webpage in the formt of 15" inche monitor but when I was open in
17" inches monitor the formating of webpage is disturb. Please help me to solve this problem.I don't know but I think it depends on the resolution of the computer with the 17" monitor.The problem is that you are using an old-fashioned way of designing pages. Instead of setting dimensions with pixels, you should set them with percents. If I were you, I would brush up on HTML design...and while you're at it, you should also learn how to USE CSS.Thank you. I know little about computers. I guess I'll have to get my sister over here again to help me out again. THANKS again - SandiYou have two forum accounts?


In any case...it should be a simple thing to fix. Just toy around with it for a bit. For instance, if something is set to 500px, try setting it to 40% instead. Once you play around with it for awhile, it becomes pretty easy.While Matt makes a point - your mention of ........

Quote

but when I was open in 17" inches monitor the formating of webpage is disturb.

I am thinking in fact you are already in % settings altogether - which means what you set up for full screen 15", this becomeswhen viewed in 17" full screen - everything SEEMS to''stretch'' to fill and so what looked ideal formatting before becomes altered.

Sometimes I do find that it is easier to work to a limiting ''containment'' - in CSS we'd call it a wrapper - or in straight html a fixed size table ..... just under 600 if you want folks on 800x600 not to have scrolling - or a bit under 1024 to suit many who use 1024x768.

Within that containment... you can then use % much as you like within because it will be ''held in''. Many TIMES when image vs text placement is critical then IMO anyways - fixed sizes have their uses.

Yea, but what exactly do you want to do with the language? Game/software creation?It would ALSO be HELPFUL for us to know what you already know?There are tons of different languages...some of them do similar THINGS, some of them do completely different things, and some of them are used together. You sound like you're probably a novice, so I think the best thing for you would be to sign up for some courses at your nearest community college. Or it doesn't even have to be LOCAL. Cerro Coso has many great online courses (so do other schools, of course, but this is one I'm familiar with). This would especially be helpful if you wish do this for a profit. These days, it's very difficult to get work without proper SCHOOLING or a significant amount of prior experience.

Solve : Help with Forms and User-created webpages on my site?

Answer»

Hello, I design simple WEBSITES that look REALLY good. I am not sure how to even ask this question but is it possible to create a website with a form that users can complete to instantly create their own page on my site. Basically a user WOULD go on my site complete a form that then create their page into a set template on my site. Maybe there is software that does this or a website or is this high level programming stuff that I simply couldn't do. What is this called? Thanks all! Yes, that would be fairly advanced.

If you have template designed, it shouldn't be too DIFFICULT, but would need to use PHP or ASP etc.

Solve : uploaded website is text only?

Answer»

i just finished making a website with a downloaded template. I finally uploaded it to bluehost and the only thing on my site is the text. no PICTURES or template at all. the template says that it is xhtml, is there a difference from html and therefore not compatible with bluehost? i made it with kompozer and it has also switched back to text only. a little advice would be appreciated. Can you post a large chunk of text from a smaller page maybe? Might help to see that and include the whole top section with header.

I am assuming you have all your paths correct???this is the filler text from the template. i tried to upload it again exactly as i downloaded it to see if while filling in my text i screwed something up. but it still didn't work.

OK - well - the ref to the template is a path to your C drive. I'd expect that to be pulled up from server, somewhere. Not familiar with those templates but anyways - on the web a link to your hard drive is not gonna do anything - mind you that is before head starts so - maybe just a ref like sometimes there is a ref to a word doc etc. Maybe it doesn't matter.. not seen that one before.

Ok so - you are calling a style sheet - is that present in your web root? It'll have to be there by that name to be loaded and that will PROBABLY do your background color etc as well as various classes and divs.

I see no code referencing images - need to see that.

Solve : Need help to finding a program like this...?

Answer»

Hello i really need a tool that will make it easier for me to paste linked words on a FORUM. Let's give an example:
I am writing about a soccer player called Ronaldinho, Gilardinho and Milan Baros...
So it's like this *on forums that allow you to write GIlardinho and when you click it, it will make you go to another site that contains a picture of him or something* if you paste this on a normal mybb forum it will show you the name of Baros and when you click it, it will take you to a picture of him: http://cache.daylife.com/imageserve/06Os4wY8S62JX/340x.jpg
So yea...
What if i have about 100 links that i want to do and i can't of course be bothered to make these say Baros and then [/url] to all of them... is there a PROGRAM where i can paste all the words that i want it to say and makes a link so others when they click it it will take you to picture of him *of course i will upload the picture and give the url to the program* is there such a thing? Cause it will save me a lot of time... Thank you, and if you didn't understand make sure to ask

P.S: What i mean is that On one side i want to write all the things i want to say and on the other side i want to put all the picture links and then when i press ok or something it automatically sticks both sides together.PLEASE HELP!?you could write a small batch program that has the names and links as inputs and url list as outputs, though with a few hundred links it sounds like you're spamming.

FBi dont see any way of doing that, that makes it any less WORK. it sounds like as much work as you think it is, or maybe more. basically all that data, and the pictures, need be set into a DB, then referenced by script. its certainly doable, although i ADMIT i dont totally follow what you are trying to do

Solve : submit button to act as link?

Answer»

Hi guys,

I have a drop down box via the tag and then a SUBMIT button next to it.

I want it so that if the drop-down shows "page 1" or something and then you hit "submit" it links to page 1. Same for "page 2" etc..

Is this possible, and how can I do it please!

Thank you for any replies posted!It is most definitely possible. And it's relatively simple. However, this sort of thing is typically done with PHP. If you would like, I [or another member] can explain how to do it. Or you can use a generator such as this one:
http://www.htmlbasix.com/dropmenu.shtml

(You may need to use Firefox to view that page.)You can also leave the submit button out and use the onChange functionAlso have a look at Dynamic Drive and JavaScript Kit. They have all the JavaScript codes you will ever need.I personally think this is much easier to do with PHP, but I guess we all have to what works best for us.I've known JavaScript for longer.... But PHP is propably easier. I've actually known JavaScript longer as well, but I found it MUCH easier to get into PHP. They're both great, of course, but I think I'm probably a little biased.Something tells me you should create an array, use the onChange function to CHANGE a value, and have the submit button GO to a different place depending on the value --matching the array data.

Solve : Frontpage Help?

Answer»

I know Frontpage was discontinued, but it's what my company provided me with to build a small intranet SITE. The site is currently just a BUNCH of buttons that link to reports all over the public drive. A "centralized reporting website".

If so, can you lead me in the right direction and I can research further?

Solve : banner imagee not showing up?

Answer»

I posted banner on my website for people to put on their pages and included the html code they need to copy in order to post it but when I tested it out only a empty box with a little TRIANGLE design in the upper left corner came up. I tried the url where I have the image at and it showed up with no problems. Heres the code I'm using:

<p><center><img scr=http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e287/throughthefireofrsd/banneranimated.gif" width= "340" border="0" alt="ThroughtheFireofRSD.com" title="Through the Fire of RSD" /></center></p>

and this is my site if you need that at all:
http://www.throughthefireofrsd.org
Its on the "Ways to Help" page.

I'm also having problems making my site accessible for all browsers. I used browsercam to view it w/different screen resolutions/browser combinations and on some, things overlap. I don't know much about html or css and I've tried searching for ways to fix it but no luck YET. Any help is appreciated:) Thank you for your time!

-Tabitha
You're missing a quotation mark...

Code: [Select]<p><center><a href="http://www.throughthefireofrsd.org"><img scr="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e287/throughthefireofrsd/banneranimated.gif" width= "340" border="0" alt="ThroughtheFireofRSD.com" title="Through the Fire of RSD" /></a></center></p>
Does it work if you use this code instead?I agree with Matt - the missing quotes are needed.

But also - suggestion - why not put the image on your server and link relative to that instead of hot linking to photobucket.

Re cross-browser problems .... sorry to say but if you have CSS in there then you will find some hassles with some browsers - the ''box model'' is not consistent. A quick cheat is to use tables for layout and just keep CSS for formatting within those.

Vist - http://www.w3schools.com and check up on some of your html and CSS aspects - much useful info there.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just brought up your site - looking at source I see no external style sheet referenced but in the I see a closing tag for - seems not needed to me. I do tho see many in line style statements ..... including position absolute etc .... much possibility here for cross browser problems. Better would be to use all style statements in an external style sheet and, perhaps cheat a bit by setting up this stuff in tables until you get more familiar with CSS.

One other option with that links setup - make up an image with those links and then map the regions ... as long as you can integrate that within the whole ... there is always more than one way to skin a rabbit!

Sorry to see how much Tabitha has suffered.I totally overlooked the browser question! Chris' suggestion may work (although likely not in Firefox 3), but I always think the best solution is just go out there and actually learn how to do all of this stuff. Personally, I think CSS Mastery by Andy Budd is a great book and it is what I usually suggest to people trying to get into HTML/CSS. And because you already have an idea of how to use HTML/CSS, I think this will be a really good book for you.

Of course, W3Schools is an excellent reference (and it's free!), but I always find that doing this stuff out of a book is much more helpful. It forces you to actually type all of the example codes, which helps you get used to the structure and format.One more thing, but it may be just a TYPING error here:

I'll definitely look up that book Matt.

When I first was trying to post the html for the banner, I had it on my server but I didn't know what the img src would be so I figured with photobucket I would know exactly what to put. I plan on changing it once I get more familiar with all this stuff.

Hi, I'm working on a website for a fire department and I can't get the popup menus on this page to work. The site is not currently up and RUNNING but here is the page that I'm talking about: http://www.gilbertfire.org/test7.html . I created individual popup menus for each of the links on the header in dreamweaver. When you scroll over them they are supposed to drop a blue menu (popup menu) with more links on each. I built the header and the popup menus first and they worked fine, then I added in everything below the header later and the menus stopped working. I can't figure out why it wont work at all. I do have some other layers on the page but i don't think that should affect anything. There may be a javascript error somewhere but i can't seem to find it. If you have any suggestions or ideas I would love to hear it, please help me.

thanks

[email REMOVED to prevent unwanted spam]I am just looking at the source code ........ first thought - tho NOTHING I think to do with the problem ... is, with all those style statements - you could well put them in an external css file and call that.

Now re the MM_ stuff that DW puts in ....... I don't use that any more for scripting but - as I recall when using their rollover principle in past - you should have a load of jscript in your page area ... or even a link to external js file.

Thus far I'd say you have lost your scripting to drive that menu.

One other option for a menu is ..... http://www.yxScripts.com/ - a GUY who WROTE some very handy menu coding - from which by altering the item descriptions and CSS enable you to make all sorts of looks. Freebie BTW - as long as credit link given. See example HERE on one of my sites.Need scripts?

Solve : Iframe height bug in IE?

Answer»

Does anyone know how to get Internet Explorer to render an Iframe's "height" attribute correctly, or is this an INHERENT (stupid) bug in the browser?

If you use "height=100%" (or any percentage), IE shrinks the Iframe to only a few lines tall, and centers it in the area set aside for it. Oddly, the width attribute works normally, but not the height. IE is the only browser I've seen that has this problem.

I've got a workaround in place by assigning a specific height, in PIXELS, to the Iframe, but I'd like make it adapt to the size of the viewer's browser window.

Just wondering if it's possible...Does this help?: http://htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/special/iframe.htmlWhat you could do is display the iframe in a table, and set the height and width of the table, then set the height and width of the iframe to "auto".Quote from: soybean on January 22, 2009, 06:44:33 AM

Does this help?: http://htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/special/iframe.html
Not really. I already know how to adjust height and width using pixel values or percentages. Good tutorial though.


Quote from: kpac on January 23, 2009, 02:18:21 PM
What you could do is display the iframe in a table, and set the height and width of the table, then set the height and width of the iframe to "auto".
Sorry, that's a step in the wrong direction. Apparently "auto" isn't an acceptable value for those attributes. Entering them shrinks the Iframe to about 300x200 pixels on IE and Firefox.

I already have the Iframe embedded in a cell of a table. I'm just wondering why, when you enter something like 100% for the height and width, IE stretches the Iframe's width to fill the available space, but keeps the height at about 300 pixels. Other browsers stretch both dimensions as you'd expect, but not IE. It's very odd...Maybe these links can help you...

This one doesn't apply. I'm not using Iframe to trick anyone into installing anything. I'm using it to display ordinary pages from the same web site, while a nice menu is available outside the Iframe for visitors to navigate the website's contents with.


Quote from: kpac on January 25, 2009, 03:39:38 AM
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-5277.html
This one is really close to the issue. We both have an Iframe inside a table that doesn't automatically expand VERTICALLY to fill the space it is assigned.

There's only one difference: this guys didn't assign a height attribute to the table cell that contains his Iframe. I gave mine a height of 100%.

It seems that the Iframe only expands vertically under two conditions: when I enter a pixel value into the Iframe's height; or when I set the Ifram to 100% tall and give the table cell a pixel value for the height. Omitting either one, or setting both to "100%" RESULTS in IE shrinking the Iframe to only about 200 pixels high. I thought that if it works for width, it would work for height too...but I guess IE treats the two differently (and less intelligently) then other browsers.

Stupid IE... Thanks anyway. That link helped a lot to explain what is going on. Apparently, what I want to do is simply not possible with IE.You could try setting it with JavaScript.

Code: [Select]<script type="text/javascript">
function iframeHeight()
{
document.getElementById('iframe').height="100%";
}
</script>

The above obviously goes into the , and add this to the

Code: [Select]<body onload="iframeHeight()">
<iframe height="100px" id="iframe" src=".../frame.htm"></iframe>
</body>

Does that work?Nope.

Just to add -

Code: [Select]<hr width="100%" height="5px" style="color:yellow;" />

Your width can be a fixed pixel amount or percentage - and if less than page width then you can center it if you wish. To fill across whole page use 100%. Select height to suit taste.

Solve : Resizing Web Page?

Answer»

Ok so I'm pretty new to web design but I'm starting to get the hang of it. I have a problem tho when I start making tables and pictures and links on my web page they look just fine work well and everything. Then I shrink the web page down everything is all squished TOGETHER and I mean really I'd like to know how you set up a web page so when you resize the page everything stays put on the screen?Try using Height and Width attributes, especially Width, in your table tags to make your tables a fixed width. Apparently, you aren't doing that, which is why your pages are shifting things AROUND. When you are using height and width, you should nearly always use percentage values, unless you have them set to about 800px or less (the minimum size of most browsers).

If you have your website "online", go to BROWSER Shots, where you can see what your website looks like in different browsers.

Have a look at W3Schools for more information.Quote from: rockstar4cs on September 11, 2008, 09:07:38 PM

Solve : Xampp - Port 80 problem?

When I try to get to my webserver from the internet I'm getting timeout errors have doubled checked everything at my end and its all working fine. Also checked my domain FORWARDING - Fine so the only option now is that the ISP has blocked port 80.

In Xampp is there anyway of changing the port number from 80 to say 82 ?

(No worries the ISP is about to lose £28 a month now !)

Regards
KateAre you sure that your ISP has done this? Changing to a different port is not a good solution, since incoming requests are most likely to be on port 80 anyway. Generally people won't understand about typing in the EXTRA ":82" into a web address.

To diagnose your connection problem, go to a command prompt and type "telnet x.x.x.x 80", replacing x.x.x.x with your external IP address. Post the results here.

More than likely because they run their own server. If you have your own server, you could do it too. Any big SITES like MySpace, Facebook, or other social sites nearly all run on their own server, so it is set up the way they want it.

httpd.conf is the configuration file for Apache, and it needs to be edited to allow PHP to create subdomains. However, normal users on a shared server will not have access to this file for security reasons, obviously.

Solve : Trouble of share my flash movie on website?

Answer»

I’ve an avi video about my summer vacation and I CONVERTED it to flv with Video4Web Converter , the program is great, I added many special effects with it. But how can I share my video with my FRIENDS. Someone told me that I could upload it to my personal website. Can anyone kindly enough to tell me how to put it into my personal website? And will the special effects INFLUNCE the quality? Thank you.You'd need to upload the .flv file to your personal website and then within a web page of yours add code similar to the below example (replacing myflash.flv with the name of your file).

Code: [Select]<embed width="60" height="60" src="myflash.flv"><noembed>You need to get the Flash plug-in!</noembed>
Or an easier and my recommended solution would be to GO to http://www.youtube.com, create a YouTube account and upload the file there, they'll place it on their server, and properly encode it for all users to view. In addition once uploaded they'll have code that you can copy and paste onto your site to share.

As far as the special effects influencing the quality of the video that really depends on the program used and how it was SAVED after those changes. However, if any influence it's likely it'd be minimal.

Okay, I've done what you said, it works, thanks.

Solve : Ask a Question, Get an Answer!?

Answer»

Hello. MANY of you may have questions on something about web design. You can ask a question here, and get an answer from another person. Please do not abuse the forum rules, sense we are still in a forum post. The example below might help you understand how this is done:


Question:

Hello, I was wondering if anyone KNOWS how to center a text, image, or something. And Also make it where everything in the page doesnt center.

----------------------------------------------------

Answer:

[ Quote ]
Hello. I can help you with this problem.
To center an Item, place a "" statement before the text/image, or thing you want to center. Then at the end, place a "" to stop the centering.

How?

If somebody has a question on web design, they make a new TOPIC IN the web design forum. I don't see how having all the questions and answers in one thread streamlines the process, which can get especially confusing if the question's take more then one or two posts to answer. Not there are countless numbers of discussions going on in one thread, all possibly unrelated. This is why each question is supposed to be given another thread.Quote

im making one for my site and all i can do is make alert promptsSo what exactly do you want help with? okay so here is the html for it
ONCLICK = "alert('TEST sucessfull')")>
test[/url]



see where it says alert what else can i put there?That code doesn't work... Does it?

Try this:
&LT;a href="#" onclick="alert('Test successfull.');">Test[/url]

And when you say "What else can I put there"... That's a bit too BROAD. What have you got in mind?whe the "alert" pops up i dont want that exclaimation piont thereWell, there are three types of alerts with JavaScript...

Alert box - Alerts user to something
Confirm box - If user clicks "Yes" one thing is done, if "No", something else is done
Prompt box - Asks for something to be typed, like a WORD, and if it matches a string, it executes some code.

So, take your pick. sorry i got to go but please email me at [emailprotected]Woah, please modify your post.

Solve : opening pictures in perl?

I have finally FIGURED out how to OPEN pics in perl but the only PROBLEM is is if I have 2 pics in a row, then it races through the 1st pic and within seconds opens the 2nd pic. No one can even see the 1st picture--much less research it (that's what the picture is USED for, in this instance).

You are MISSING a type attribute and "link" should be "src". It should be:

<script src="http://www.herbertsworld.com/scriptholder.html">
</script>

I'm not SURE if that will work as it is a HTML file...No that isnt the problem, It works for all my other pages.

The login keeps saying Login Incorrect even with the correct info.I'd say the problem is that your running the 'if (done==0) { alert("Invalid login!"); }' script on the same level as 'var done=0;' so it's immediately activating. I'm not good with JAVASCRIPT, but a tabbed Code: [Select]else if () command might work.Quote from: EchoLdrWolf316 on January 19, 2009, 07:51:21 PM

Yes, this could be the problem.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!-- Begin
function Login(){
var done=0;
var username=document.login.username.value;
username=username.toLowerCase();
var password=document.login.password.value;
password=password.toLowerCase();
if (username=="Bannana97" && password=="se5asokn1") { window.location="userbailey451497529.html"; done=1; }
elseif (username=="micky" && password=="bailey") { window.location="usermicky00000191.html"; done=1; }
elseif (username=="apple202" && password=="passlolword") { window.location="userapple202ifsdhgio.html"; done=1; }
else { done==0; alert("Invalid login!"); }
}
// End -->
</SCRIPT>

You might also have a problem with the username and password variables. To me, you are defining the same variables twice.

var username=document.login.username.value;
username=username.toLowerCase();
var password=document.login.password.value;
password=password.toLowerCase();

Might be something like this:

var user=document.login.username.value;
username=user.toLowerCase();
var pass=document.login.password.value;
password=pass.toLowerCase();Quote from: Bannana97 on January 19, 2009, 03:37:23 PM
No that isnt the problem, It works for all my other pages.

The login keeps saying Login Incorrect even with the correct info.

yeah, it's not a problem that your using attributes that don't exist.

Solve : Need help with placing text image on header.?

Answer»

How do I put a smaller image on top of a larger image? In this case, it's a text image on top of a header graphic. Both are jpgs. Can I actually position the smaller image?

ThxYou can open the large image in mspaint and copy and paste it into mspaint.
From there, you can move the smaller image around, and then save it.Is this HTML we're talking about?
OOPS. Should have mentioned. Yes it is htmlQuote from: ajsmith100 on September 23, 2008, 12:38:52 PM
Oops. Should have mentioned. Yes it is html

No worries.

Do you have any code already? Can you post it?
Is there any (seperate) text in the header?
I'll post it when I get home.

ThanksOne option which will give you some room for manipulation is to use absolute positioning in CSS.

The smaller pic will need a higher value Z index so it will be on a layer - then you can move it where you want.


Kpac, I've uploaded the images, as we discussed. Thanks for taking a look.

Carbon, not sure what you mean

You can use tables for that. Just set the background of the table to the background image, and putting the other image inside the table:

Code: [Select]<table border="0">

When I click calculate combat it does nothing, help is appreciated please.
I would also like it to be a JavaScript alert to pop-up with your combat level.
All help is appreciated.
Thanks.Woah, that's a complicated script you got there...

What is combat.php?combat.php is the webpage (the second code).Shucks! yep a good size chunk of code there. Most interesting.

Sadly my JScript skills are well below this level but I'll see if I can follow the flow. At the moment I am looking for a call to combat.js in the html head - and only see a CSS call plus favicon, tho I see a call for it in the body. Would a call from be better?

I assume no eror messages but - have you done a debug on it? Always so aware that the smallest syntax error can screw things up totally.

The js content itself is right now a bit deep for me.I appreciate your help anyway.
And I need a call from the button to display an alert with the combat level.I this script supposed to redirect to combat.php? Is that where a user calculates his/her combat level? Just for clarification, does the hit points button work? Most of the time it SEEMS when a button does nothing, it is usually because of a misspelling. Do you get any errors when you click the combat button?Yes hitpoints work
And there is no error on combat.
Instead of refreshing how would i make it display the combat level in an alert?
