HTML - Keeping A Slow Loading Page Connection Alive
Greetings,
I have a script that needs to load a ~250Mb file from an FTP server in order to function. During this 20+ minute process, the connection between the server and client is lost; is there a header I can use to make sure the connection does not timeout? Thank you and Godspeed! Similar TutorialsHi, I've just put some of the finishing touches to www.oisinmcgann.com which works just fine in IE7, Firefox, Safari and every other browser I've checked. Except IE6 (of course), where some of the pages just hang loading one of the background images. There's a lot of CSS and some transparent PNGs involved, but I've followed tutorials and tips on-line and think everything should be technically alright. More annoying is that there are three layouts involved. The one on the home page seems to work fine, while if you check out the books>Mad Grandad or books>Forbidden Files IE6 just gives up after putting in the CSS menus and the text. Could any give me some pointers on what I can do here? (Aside from ask everyone visiting the site to upgrade...) Cheers, M Hi There, First post Ive just redesigned my site in HTML and uploaded it to www.sibarber.co.uk Occasionally I find the front page (index) taking nearly a minute to load which is obviously far too long. Im at a loss to understand why. I use a fowarding source (Freeparking) to redirect visitors to my 'true' web address which is http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~sibarber/ . Maybe this is part of the problem but my previous site at this was fine. Im not particularly HTML savvy, so if anyone can throw some light on the issue I would appreciate it. S Hi, adding rows with the clear:both; attribute causes a huge slow-down and I need an alternative or a solution. I'm composing a friend's resume in html. I'm using nested divs to create a two column format. Each row is a div block that contains two smaller divs--one for each column. Each row uses the attribute clear:both; so that the next row will form cleanly beneath it. I am getting the desired format, but as I add more and more rows, the web browser becomes dramatically slower. 20 rows will make the page un-loadable and the browser crashes. Am I doing something wrong or is there another way to do this? Hello, I have a simple html form drop down list as a quick reference and link to pages on my site. It is not nested with subcategories, however there are still hundreds of options in the list, and it is causing the page load time to slow considerably. When the list is created dynamically it is painfully slow. I tried to speed things up by making a static html file of the code and using INSERTFILE on my pages. This helped a little, but not enough to suit me. Is there a way to cache this code snippet, or something like that, to speed up the load time? Thanks! Hello, I am having a bit of a problem with a website I just started. I am currently on a resolution of 1280x1024 and I want it work for 1024x768. Well, I want it to work for any resolution, really. In fact, I noticed the problem exists when I go from maximizing the browser window to minimizing it. Here is what it looks like at 1280x1024 with the browser window maximized. Here is what it looks like at 1024x768 or when the browser window is less than maximized. See the problem? The two background images to either side of the banner image are lessening, as the resolution decreases or the browser window is decreases. Yet, the banner image remains unaffected. How can I make sure that the html is proportional to resolution, such that the background image on either side of the banner image remain unaffected in the manner in which they are currently? Thank you. Here is the HTML: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <table border="2"> <!-- table 1 --> <tbody> <tr> <td width="10%" style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(pictures\BG.jpg)"><!-- col 1 --> </td> <td width="80%"><!-- col 2 --> <table border="4"> <!-- Table 2 --> <tbody> <tr> <td><img src="pictures/banner.jpg"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>More stuff goes here</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </td> <td width="10%" style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(pictures\BG.jpg)"><!-- col 3 --> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <!-- table 1 --> </body> </html> Hiyas, well I am trying to make an html website, and I got two things I trie to add to my page. One is a shoutbox using direct link code, and in the preview it displays fine, and works fine. Another is a teamspeak launcher I made, just a link and an image. I align one to the right the other to the left, and that works. The problem is, that the one on the right is level with the bottom of the shoutbox on the left, whereas I want them to be a part of two side columns eventually, where they are both the same length etc, not all uneven. Here is my preview page: http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o...Untitled-1.gif I hope you see what I mean. Please help me, as I need this website online ASAP cos me and my clan are going to some tournaments and seriously need this online. Thanks in advance, Ferinos Does the order of laoding HTML,CSS,javascript files etc depends upon the rendering engine ? or they generally follow a common order. What is the best place to link a javascript file ? I am having issues with this page loading: http://www.avidcat.com/Submit-Site.htm Sometimes it loads fine on my screen and other times it locks up after loading just the header. Does anyone here have any problems opening this page? I am trying to determine if the problem is a conflict with the new shopping cart we are using. Thanks removed thank you Hello, I am new to the forum and html in general... I came across this website: http://ricardovilloria.com/ and what i like about it that pages of work load without re-loading the whole page again. It is really simply done - yet I cannot see how. I don't understand what is: http://ricardovilloria.com/work/03 is it a folder? how come it doesn't have .html extension? I tried downloading it - it seems that there is an index.hml that has elements on the page/website that are always stay, in this case header and the list of links on the right. But how the other pages load into this one with only a click? the website is clearly not a php website...? how is this done? I appreciate any help thanks alimdar The main index page on my site takes FOREVER to load up. I thought maybe it was a problem with the server or my DSL, but all the other pages within the domain load fine. There are quite a few images, but they are extremely small sizes and not anymore than any other web site. http://moviepatron.com For some reason, the Google adsense loads right away, but the rest of the page takes literally minutes to apprear. Anyone have any thoughts as to the cause? Thanks! Hi, I hope someone can help. I have a conservation website and one of the pages is linked to a large mysql database which pulls out stat data. I can take a while to load so I wanted to have an ' loading page ' that displayed while the page was loading in in the background. It would also be great if it could display a message saying something like ' Extracting database entries ' with a progress bar below. Would it be possible for someone to help me with the code to do this? Many thanks Simon hi, is there any tool to slowdown the page loading in my browser in order to see the behavior of my website when the bandwith is low ? thanks I have an iframe arrangement with a horizontal navigation bar at the top of the screen that loads one of seven different pages under that nav bar at the iframe point. The pages take around 15 secs to load, so I tried to use the onload=document.location=pagename.htm on the body tag to show a page loading please wait message. This works just fine on the initial page that contains the iframe. BUT, when a choice on the nav bar is clicked, the page loading please wait gif does not show up at the iframe point. Instead, the target page appears after 10-15 secs. Any advice, please? I have 40 .jpg picures/photos that I want to display on a web page. They have all been through the thumbnail process, and none is larger than 25k. However, when trying to open the page on a dial up connection, the process stops (times out) before all the pictures can be completely displayed. Is there some remedy for this? Is there a way to download them in groups of, say, 10, so the browser can catch up and complete the displays? I don't really have a clue... Thanks... Hi, I just edited my index page but when i type the name to the website it still shows the older version of the index page... how do i change this? Pleasee heeelllpppppppppppppp Hi, I have made an ubuntu server (11.10) and I have made a site on this IP number: 188.177.104.174. When I load the site from a non-local location the site looks strange... The whole setup is missing... I guess its a very basic configuration issue!? Can you help? Frank The page in question is - suspicious link removed; may be added to another post once the virus has been removed - I changed some images on the page several days ago and all seemed fine. Today the page has stopped loading. Any help would be a blessing for sure. Front Page is the problem and I am doing my best to get away from the program but it is hard to teach an old dog new tricks sometimes. Please be gentle I know it is a mess......Thank You! Hello, I consider this an HTML problem but I could be wrong. Not much of a coder myself I have been sticking bits here and there from all over the web. I have managed to integrate a percentage load meter on my site but it loads after the images have -defeating the purpose- I was hoping somebody could tell me where I'm going wrong. The % meter is pretty, and that's why I like it, but I don't think its accurate? I got it from the link below: http://www.bram.us/projects/js_bramu...rhandler/#what Here is my site so far, I would like to pre-load the .png %bar images so it makes some sense and then get rid of the bar when the page has loaded. I especially need this as java disappears when a page is scrolled and being positioned behind the java applet it would be seen. http://lovelago.googlepages.com/flow4f.html Many thanks. When I go to certain pages on my website, i get this error: Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site http://<Web site>.com. Operation aborted. What does this mean and how do I fix it, I have read that google API can cause it but I have tried those fixes, then sitemeter.com additions to the restricted zones.
