HTML Code:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="2.5;URL=http://www.colletts.co.uk/winter/winter_dolomites.html" />

Hello everybody,

maybe someone can help me here - I have a little form on one of my websites where a user is supposed to type in one number in one little textbox. The textbox should be just big enough to contain only one number.

While it is fine in Mozilla it seems to be messed up in Internet Explorer 6.0.

Just two images - this is what it looks like in Mozilla:



and this is what it looks like in IE:




How in earth can I force it to show up in IE as it should, with a small box containing just one number?

Here is the code:

Code:

 <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0">
<TR>
<TD ALIGN="CENTER"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="m1" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="1"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3" WIDTH="1"></TD>
<TD ALIGN="CENTER"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="m2" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="1"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</TD>
<TD VALIGN="TOP"> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0">
<TR>
<TD ALIGN="CENTER"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="d1" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="2"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"></TD>
<TD ALIGN="CENTER"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="d2" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="7"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</TD>
<TD VALIGN="TOP"><TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0">
<TR>
<TD>
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="y1" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="1"
 STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="y2" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="9"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="y3" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="4"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="y4" maxlength="1" SIZE="1" VALUE="2"
STYLE="background-color:#E1CCB3"></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>

I added the maxlength out of sheer despair and now I am at all wits end.

Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?? That would be so great..

Many thanks for reading and sorry if this is a bit bulky with the images. I also have a vague idea that this should probably be in css but then it's still html. I'm not good with css anyway..

Hi all!

My web-site is registered on a free-host. Since the host is free, it has a streak with hypes at the top of the page. It's a frame which opens every sub-pages "under" the frame, so it stays visible whatever you click on. I guess it's familiar for everyone.

So, for example if I make a reference to "gallery.html" with "<a href="gallery.html" target="_blank">" The frame goes away of course, and I can make the streak disappear.

My question is, how can I do this with the index page, so I type my website address: www.whatever.host.com and it opens the index page, with the frame, but with a script it automatically loads into "_blank" only once.

This line reloads the page automatically:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2; url=http://www.whatever.com/">

What tags and how should I add to this, to get it work so it loads into _blank when it gets called. Any solutions are welcomed.

regards,

Adam

Hi all
I am new to html. I came throught tag
<META NAME="Author" CONTENT="text">

I don't see any change in my web page including this tag.
Can u please tell me what's the use of it. How can I see that information in my web page

Ok... I may have posted this in the wrong section but who cares anyway...

I wonder if there is a way to add this <META HTTP-EQUIV="imagetoolbar" CONTENT="no"> "meta-thing" to all my HTML pages in my site. Can you add it to an external file or something??. The main point is that I don't want to include it in every single HTML file.

Iv just created a website using CoffeeCup HTML Editer, but this is the first website which i have created using a HTML Editer instead of a sitebuilder provided by the hosting. In the sitebuilder i used for my old site, it provided what was called"SEO Wizard" which wrote the meta tags in the head for me.

Now im using this HTML Editer, i have to write it myself.. On the template i used to start off, it provided the following as a start for me to enter the rest.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="Description" content="Your Title">
<meta name="author" content="CoffeeCup Software, Inc.">
<meta name="Copyright" content="Copyright (c) 2010 CoffeeCup, all rights reserved.">
<title>Your Title</title>
<style...


I can see myself that i need to add some sort of meta tag for my "Keywords".
Im also not sure if there is any other codes i need to add, or removed if needed.
Could someone help me please? Thanks!

Note: Im not asking someone to add my keywords for me, etc.. lol.
Im just looking for help on how to write it & then i can fill in the "Specific Stuff" for my site.

I'm trying to put a meta tag description on my homepage, but it's not working because when I search for it on google, a different description shows up. This is my head:

<head>
<meta name="description" content="The reviewing site for New York City landlords. Find out if your landlord is a slumlord before you rent from them. ***** and moan about your existing landlord.">
<meta name="Keywords" content="landlord, tenant, landlord tenant, small claims court, new york city, rent, deposit, security deposit, eviction, evict, slumlord, landlord law, tenant law, new york city tenant, rent new york city, landlord new york city, department of housing, sanitation, review, slumlord new york city" />
<title>The Landlord Intelligence Agency</title>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico">
<link rel="icon" type="image/gif" href="animated_favicon1.gif">
<style type="text/css">
a { text-decoration:none }
</style>
</head>

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here?

Code:

<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">

Hi,

I have a website which is in greek. I was making an application to appear in this website but I have a problem with the characters, they appear like ?

I had this problem before but was solved by adding a meta in the head part
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

the files are in utf-8 format and this meta exists in my head part but they still appear like "?"

I would appreciate it if someone could advice me what to check.

I can also provide a link, but I will send it by personal message to the interested.

Thanks in advance,

Dinos

In terms of search engine ranking, is it better for a websites meta tags (title, keywords, and description) to be different on every page of the site?... or is it best to make one really great tag and copy/paste it into every page? I would think the first would be better but then there won't be the constant repetition of good keywords because every pages tags will be different.

Hey!

I have run my site through the W3C validator and have a bunch of errors coming up for problems supposedly within my meta keyword and meta description tags. I've been trying to figure out why it's not liking what i have but can't figure it out.

If anyone could help me out i would really appreciate it! My webpage is paleocookbook.com and the problems i'm having appear when doing a quick validator check at http://validator.w3.org

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi guys, just a quick question regarding meta-data and metatags.

After a recent overhaul of our google adwords campaign its come to light new search options inside of adwords regarding things like;

search - broad search
[search] - exact match
"search" - phrase match
-search - exluding search

etc...

Are meta-tags sensitive to this, and if so would this have an effect on search engine visability levels... now I already know some search engines do not use Meta-data... but for the others that do, it's most likely worth doing...

Any help is much apprciated.

Ben

Hi All,

I know Meta tags aren't a huge thing these days but I still like to use them, just wondering what everyones thoughts were on which ones to use? I think they are way too many, obviously 'description' and 'keywords' would be important... Any others? And anyone know of any good generators?

Thanks!

Can Someone please explain the relevance of using x-meta-robots?
<meta name="robots" content="index,follow" />
Cheers!
