HTML - Simple, Stupid Xhtml 1.0 Strict Transitional Hellp
Hello everyone! I've scoured around for a bit looking for an answer to a stupid question without success, so I'll pose it here. Currently I am working on a bit of Java code that prints out a document in XHTML 1.0 Strict Transitional. The document displays a formatted list of stock information. What I want is an <option> drop down list with the days of the week, and upon clicking on one of those days, the page automatically refreshes to show the stocks for that day. So very simple, I need for the page to change to a different .html file in the same directory onmouseup, I believe the action is. Here is my .java code, for those interested:
Code: import java.util.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.text.DecimalFormat;
public class Portfolio
{
public static ArrayList<String> stocks = new ArrayList<String>();
public static DecimalFormat fmt = new DecimalFormat("0.##");
public static int tot = 0;
public Portfolio(){}
public static void main(String[]args) throws IOException
{
stocks.add("APPL 5.67 3");
stocks.add("DFG 54.87 78");
stocks.add("DGSF 93.62 5");
printPortfolio(stocks);
}
public static void printPortfolio(ArrayList<String> strar) throws IOException
{
String stockName = new String();
double stockVal = 0.0;
int numShares = 0;
StringTokenizer st;
stocks = strar;
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter("Portfolio.html");
out.println("<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN");
out.println("http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd\">");
out.println("<html xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">");
out.println("<head>");
out.println("<title>User's JSMS Stock Portfolio</title>");
out.println("</head>");
out.println("<body>");
out.println("<img border=\"0\" src=\"ball16.gif\" width=\"29\" height=\"28\" alt=\"Ball\">");
out.println("<pre>");
out.println("STOCK NAME PRICE SHARES OWNED TOTAL");
out.println("---------- ----- ------------ -----</br>");
for(String str : stocks)
{
st = new StringTokenizer(str);
stockName = st.nextToken();
stockVal = Double.parseDouble(st.nextToken());
numShares = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
if(numShares > 0)
{
String SN = new String();
int nShares = 0;
double price = 0;
st = new StringTokenizer(str);
SN = st.nextToken();
int numS = 25 - SN.length();
out.print(SN);
//inserts # of spaces after data based upon data string length
while(numS > 0)
{
out.print(" ");
numS--;
}
price = Double.parseDouble(st.nextToken());
out.print("$" + price);
double tumS = 18.0 - (Double.toString(price).length());
//inserts # of spaces after data based upon data string length
while(tumS > 0)
{
out.print(" ");
tumS--;
}
nShares = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
out.print(nShares);
numS = 19 - (Integer.toString(nShares).length());
//inserts # of spaces after data based upon data string length
while(numS > 0)
{
out.print(" ");
numS--;
}
out.println("$" + fmt.format(nShares*price) + "</br>");
tot += Double.parseDouble(fmt.format(nShares*price));
}
}
out.println("--------------------------------------------------------------------");
out.println("Stock Portfolio Net Worth : " + "$" + fmt.format(tot) + "</br>");
out.println("</pre>");
out.println("<p>");
out.println("Please Choose a Day:");
out.println("<br /><br />");
out.println("<select name=\"day\">");
out.println("<option selected=\"selected\">Monday</option>");
out.println("<option>Tuesday</option>");
out.println("<option>Wednesday</option>");
out.println("</select>");
out.println("</p>");
out.println("</body>");
out.println("</html>");
out.close();
}
}
At the bottom you can see a simple option list. This is the one that I want to be the day-chooser. In many of the places I've looked it talks about passing the value of the choice to a server. This is not my intention. I am thinking, possibly stupidly, that I can store the value of the choice in a variable and then in javascript have the page refreshed to the corresponding .html file in the directory. If this is the case, example code would be very much appreciated haha. Thank you! Similar TutorialsI have a Web site whose pages are XHTML 1.0 Strict, and the vast majority of them are valid pages, according to the W3C validation page. Some of the pages are not valid, however, as I use some items such as target="_blank" and ol start="26" and items like that. Would any problems develop with indexing (or with anything else) if I decided to make the invalid pages transitional and keep the rest strict? Is it ok to have a mix of XHTML 1.0 Strict and XHTML 1.0 Transitional on a single site? UBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

As I have validated my page using w3c validator it asks to define class for each and every thing like <table class="xx"> .xx {width:40%;} This makes maintainablility easy but if I have to define 20 different widths I cant use class names just for these widths.. Will Transitional doc type support this?? Hi, I'm new to webdesign - the website pages im working on looks strange when viewed in the "cached page" of search engine results for a search on "EcBiz". Here's an example page featuring wii games consoles if you want to go directly to the source. http://www.ecbiz.co.uk/wii-console.htm All comments welcome! A hello, i have tried to validate the line below, which is part of a form. i added selected="selected" rather than just selected, and one error was removed, but - i still get the same error message. the s in front of the sml value is in red indicating it is where the problem is located. <option value=sml_:16.00 selected="selected">S</option> the message ---- Line 442, Column 35: an attribute value specification must be an attribute value literal unless SHORTTAG YES is specified ----- i don't know how to specify SHORTTAG YES in this line of code I am trying to move forward with xhtml, and am declaring the doc type as 1.0 transitional. hope someone will help me with this. weblost - So many of you have tried to help me with my website http://webtvdeluxe.com/home.php . Someone was kind enough to make a css version of it with no tables. However, I couldn't get the newsboard to work with it because of the difference in coding. So I started from square one and decided to try xhtml because it is not much different from html and I'm trying to get my webpage xhtml strict validated. Have one problem I can't figure out. If you look at my page, some of the images are broken away from the tables. In transitional mode, my page looks fine. But in strict mode it does that. I know you can't use the align attribute in strict so that why I attempted to make the td and table values in CSS instead. I put every value I could think of and none of them are working. Anyone know how to fix this? I know that I have been a pain because I've been asking a lot of questions. I really do appreciate all the help that you all have been giving me. It's probably something silly but I guess I'm too frustrated to figure out what it is. I'm currently in the process of updating my site from very old html to xhtml 1.0 strict standards. I've bought myself a good book and looked quite a bit on the web, but unfortunately I haven't found the answer to this question: With the extinction of frames, how do I create a 'navigation bar' at the top of my pages without putting the same code into each document and having to update a multitude of files each time I change the location of one document being referenced by the navigation controls? I'm using external CSS files for my presentation control. Currently, I am using a single xhtml 1.0 frameset file to set-up the frames, then using xhtml 1.0 strict for the main files. The navigation file, however, is using xhtml 1.0 transitional simply because I don't know how to mimic the "target" attribute in the <a> element to target the main frame. I know I can use the 'onclick' and 'onkeypress' event activators in the <a> element to open a new window [window.open(this.href); return false;], but how can I apply that to target a frame and not a window? Of course, that may become a moot point if there's a way to get rid of the frames altogether... Douglas --- http://www.SilverThumbStudios.com/xhtml I'm sure people will think this has been answered a million times before, but unless I'm completely blind, I've not seen a single piece of XHTML that does this. This is a screen layout that I have to create under XHTML strict specification: Code: <window, not scrolling> <site header: must always show at the top of window, fixed pixel height, not scrolling /> <container: not scrolling, fills the window height> <left sidebar: must always show on the left, fixed pixel width, full height, not scrolling /> <container P: not scrolling, variable size, fills available width and height > <page header: must always show at at the top of container P, fixed height, not scrolling /> <page content: the only scrolling area, variable size, fills available width and height in container P /> <page footer: must always show at at the bottom of containerP, fixed height, not scrolling /> </container P> <right sidebar: must always show on the right, fixed pixel width, full height, not scrolling /> </container> <site footer: must always show at at the bottom of window, fixed pixel height, not scrolling /> </window> any ideas? I don't want to use script, just css. Width seems no problem but height is a heck of a problem. The only way I've managed it so far is using a table layout which works for Safari but not in IE8 or Mozilla. I am searching for freeware PHP shopping carts uses div XHTML 1.0 strict. Unfortunately i found only Quick.Cart: http://opensolution.org/?p=Quick.Cart I found more like Zen-Cart, CubeCart but this carts use XHTML 1.0 transitional and use to much table's. Please help and give some shopping carts whit XHTML 1.0, 1.1 but without tables as a basic construct. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I'm writing a news script in PHP and I want to make 'skin-ability' to be one of its best features. Yet, I'm also aiming for strict xhtml complaint code. The news script will act as a 'plug-in' within a page; not a separate entity. For skinning purposes, I need to create an external css file under my skins directory. The issue is when the script is called, it will pull the css file & embed it somewhere in the <body> tag (wherever the webmaster wants to display news). I know a link tag inside the body is not strict xhtml. Also, I cannot embed styles within each tag. This will turn people away from designing new skins. I want the skinning process to be almost seamless; I'm stuck dealing with validation errors or having no styles. Not sure how to get around this. Anyone have an idea? Hi, I have read that strict xhtml are better for viewing the web for the visually impaired but can anyone tell me what is better and how it compares to transitional.

Any help in this issue would be appreciable. Thanks in advance I have virtually no understanding of doctype. I've never used it before, and I've never noticed a difference on any of my sites between different browsers or old and new browsers. But, recently, I've been trying to get up to standards on everything. All the tutorials and forums I've read about it say to use Transitional if you're not sure, and then they go on to say stuff about which version of HTML you're using. I really don't know exactly what XHTML is, but I do know (or at least think I know) that I always close out everything proper (<br /> instead of <br>, <img src="..." /> instead of <img src="...">, etc.), I always keep everything in lower case, and I always put properties in quotes. Is that the ONLY difference between HTML and XHTML? If so, should I use a Strict doctype instead of Transitional? My site looks fine on Mozilla, IE, Safari, and Opera, but w3.org keeps saying my pages are invalid, and it always points out my closing tags. Here's what I'm working on, in case anyone wants to see it http://www.gizburgduck.com/main/index.html nevermind, problem solved |
