HTML - Using Sitetools To Update Header On Every Page
I want to update the header/footer on each page of the site I'm working on without having to manually edit every single page. So I've been told to use sitetools - in that folder is a file called "makesite" in which I input all the pages that I want these changes to be on. Then I login thru PuTTy, an SSH client, and type in these commands: "cd sitetools" and then "makesite." Except when I type in "makesite," it says "Command not found."
I've never dealt with sitetools before - I just took over the webmaster job for my professor as a (VERY) part-time gig so all I ever do is edit, I don't know a whole lot beyond basic HTML. If anyone can offer me any guidance, I'd really appreciate it! Similar TutorialsHello, Can you tell me what the best way would be to update a WEB page with simple date content please? We have a page that shows when certain production jobs have run and the last time i had to update it i had to actually change the HTML code and that was a pain. Is there an easier way to maintain this HTML page? I'd like to work with something like WORD where i just deal with the content on the WORD page and let WORD generate the HTML, but this particular HTML page has custom layout, but i'm figuring since WORD can do it there must be another tool that can handle this custom layout and content like a WORD HTML page? Thanks very much for any insights! BobK HI I have a .htm file in which i dynmically insert the data.

It is in a div. the main part of my page is also in a div. Using the Z-index parameters and the position parameters on each div, I have the main part of the page scroll underneath the banner. I have a link at the top of the page, <a href="#mondaymtgs">Meetings on Monday</a> Which points to a name anchor on the page. When the link is clicked, it goes to (or scrolls to) The named anchor: <a name="mondaymtgs">Meetings that are on Monday.</a> The problem is this, when it does scroll to the named anchor, It does it such that, the named anchor is at the top of the page, Underneath the banner. I suppose I could just keep moving the named anchor up a little at a time, each time when I move it up, testing the link to see if the page scrolls such that, the point I want I to scroll to appears just below the banner. I am going to have numerous links at the top of the page, pointing To various places on the page. I hate to have to do this for each link. I would rather just put the named anchor where I want it to page to, and have that line show just under the banner. Is there any way to do this? Thanks in advance. Laurence I have a web page that has a gap between the main content page (lower) and the header piece(upper) and I can't figure out how to close this gap. If you're interested in taking a look at it.

When navigating to other Subpages, everything is fine; So, the problem is with the Homepage. http://www.khaus.com/sites/Asongo/html/ (click on About Us, then back to Home, and you'll see the 'jump') It must be in the code of the Homepage, so I've tried: - attaching the javascript - all the code for the top parts of the page are the same - rebuilding the page, with one of the interior pages format. Any help or suggestions, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Reply With Quote Hi all, How do I force a single web page to update to its most recent content? This file is being loaded from a frameset and when I load it in IE it doesn't update, I have to wipe all the temporary IE files in order to see the updated content. Thanks in advanced. When I view my main page, it looks fine. It is centered on the screen with some background space between the top of the screen and the top of the web page. And has background space to the left and right. But when I select the sign-up link which is basically: http://www.website.com/index.php?command=signup_page When the sign-up page is viewed, it has moved up to the top of the screen and loses the top part of the header border. How can I get it to view exactly like the home page? To experiment I went to the css file and changed the top margin from 50px to 500px. It only effected the home page, didn't effect the sign-up page at all. Code: body { background-color: #6B6B6B; text-align: left; margin-top: 500px; What do you suggest I do to keep the top of the sign-up page from being cut off? Thanks. Hi, This is my site: http://www.theticketsguide.com I want to know how to add text, buttons, images, etc to my home page header without adding it to my header on all other pages of my site. So, something similar to this: http://www.coveractionpro.com I'm using Wordpress's Thesis theme. Thank you very much, Brandon My current web site is at "CAVAglass.com" I created "http://www.cavaglass.com/gallery/1.GORMENGHAST.htm" and want it to be my new Index Page. All the links work fine here. When I rename "http://www.cavaglass.com/gallery/1.GORMENGHAST.htm" as "index.htm", and open my "CAVAglass.com" website this home page looks fine, but no links work. Any suggestions? Best, Joseph I've seen (and cannot find again) a header piece of artwork that was justified a percentage distance from the left of the page. Another plain slither of header artwork was repeated seamlessly across the total width of the page. It went 'behind' the prime piece of artwork and reappeared. The 'joins' were invisible. The header seemed / appeared to be one piece of artwork that went across the page regardless of how wide the page was with the piece of artwork always remaining between the centre of the page and the left hand edge of the page. The distance of the piece of artwork got nearer to the left hand edge of the page the narrower the page got. How does one achieve that? Both images were hosted by ImageShack. I barely understand all that myself! My knowledgebase is a little above zero. Thanks in advance, MD. Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, i have a feeling it is. So you create a site for a client and that client has to update the page with whatever area they work in, maybe they work in real estate and have a new house on the market to add to the site etc.. Well i could easily write a php script that would add their content to the site, but i can image there could be errors somewhere down the line, what happens then, they phone you up to complan etc...? So what content modifying tools/script do you use? Hi guys, Is there a way I can have a page of links sat in a directory which I can call from via other pages on the server? I think I'm thinking of something that can be done with PHP, but the idea is: On main page, for example, links: 1 2 3 All call to 'links.html' Which has a list of page URL's, each with their own ID. So the links on the main page call to the ID's, which extracts the link listed at that moment in time. So if I later want to change the link, I have only to change the link.html and not every related link on the site. I know I could maybe use inline frames, but the layout I have makes that not possible, and it's still not a great solution. I'm sure someone must know what I'm talking about. Sorry if it sounds confusing! Cheers! Hi, I have a project that I am working on, where I have a Default page where I have links to various pages which contain various product information for products which I QA. I have on the default page a link to a master sheet where a person could see the information from all of the sections on one page. What I would like to be able to do is update the various sections and then be able to click the link for the Master sheet and see the updated information. Is this possible?

My site http://www.prized4you.com Thanks in advanced Hi guys, I've done design work before, but the website I just finished is my first stab at doing html & css by myself and I just have one problem that isn't working. There is a gap a few pixels high between the top images in my header and the bottom of the header where the navigation is. This gap doesn't appear in Firefox or Safari, only IE. Does anyone know how to fix this. The site can be seen on my company's test server at www.worthy-llc.com/pfpk. Thanks so much, it's a charity site and I want to make sure it gets done correctly.
