HTML - Bit Confused As To Where To Start...
So first off, I am looking to build a website that will incorporate a CMS. Do you have to use certain type of code types so that it will work with different CMS's?
Read somewhere that certain dropdown menu's and such only worked with certain CMS... So I guess, if I am looking to build a site, do I need to know what CMS I am going to use from the start? Similar TutorialsCan someone tell me why this wont validate as strict. Thanks Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"

I'm wanting to create a div, which will contain 4 sections, but i've tried to make it and failed. I know I could use tables, but I want to style the div. I have an example of what i'm after. If you look at this website: http://www.bigw.com.au/bigw/home If you look at the bottom of the page and find 'In store this week', that is what i'm wanting to make. I'm just wondering, how would I go about making something like that, to have it span multiple times across a single div? I am trying to flush out somethings on a website... I have a marquee code and everytime I put something after it, that code, and everything proceeding that code, completely disappears. Here is the code... can someone please correct me, or tell me what I'm doing wrong? <b><font color="#0000FF" size="5"> <marquee behavior=alternate direction=up scrolldelay=30 height=50><center>TEXT</center> </font></b> Thank you. Hello all So i am trying to build a simple order form for my job where users fill out the data on a basic form on our infosite and the data is then emailed to us for processing. The idea is basically the same system as ordering pizza online. I have built the site itself and even the email link is working. The problem is none of the data is being transferred to the email so when submit is clicked my email window pops up empty. The subject line reads what i want it too but nothing else registers. Could someone please at least point me in the right direction. I am entirely self taught and ANY help would be excellent. Thank-you Hi, Fairly new to website designing etc, used Wordpress in the past but wanted to have a go doing my own from scratch. www.flobbadobba.co.uk that what i have so far. I am finding it annoying though having to change each page when i add a new one in so that it shows on the menu down the left. Is there a way of making the change once and having it reflect on all the pages? Any help greatly received. Simon Hi everyone ive been following this guide : http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_css.asp this is the stage im also at im very confused about how CSS works? im not sure if this should be in HTML or CSS section but im wondering if i could have a more clear understanding of CSS ? Okay, so I made a website for my work. I uploaded all the files to the host, all the pages were working fine, then all of a sudden two of the pages (The index and another page i had made) just were blank when they were loaded. Whenever this happened i checked the other pages, and they both worked fine. I was using IE so i decided to open it up in firefox and see if it worked, and it did. So all I have gathered so far is that two of the pages don't work in ie, but the other two do, and all four work on other browsers. any help?!?! I am for all intensive purposes a complete novice at website building, as this is my first website i have ever made from scratch, so please anybody who can help, DO! By the way, I made the website in photoshop, sliced it, and then used dreamweaver. All for pages were made exactly the same way, nothing was changed. If that in any way helps.... Pages that don't work in IE... www.napolisrestaurant.com/index.html www.napolisrestaurant.cm/pizza.html Pages that seem to work on all browsers... www.napolisrestaurant.com/pasta.html www.napolisrestaurant.com/misc.html HI I AM TOTALY NEW TO ALL THIS AND REALLY NEED SOME HELP I have made some html code for my website to display a form, i used w3schools.com for guidance. The form is to be filled in on my web page and then emailed to me. I am using mailmyform.com for email proccesing. Below is the html can anyone show me what is wrong with it???? <form method="post" action="http://submit.mailmyform.com" name="mailmyform_form" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="hidden" name="mailmyform_username" value="sano1"> <form> <p><font size="2" face="tahoma" color="DimGray"> <b> Your Name: <br> <input type="text" name="Your Name"> <br> Your E-mail Address: <br> <input type="text" name="Your E-mail Address"> <br> Your Telephone Number: <br> <input type="text" name="Your Telephone Number"> <br> Your Enquiry: <br> <textarea rows="8" cols="30"> </textarea> <br> How would you like us to reply? <br> <form action=""> <select name="How would you like us to reply?"> <option value="telephone">Telephone</option> <option value="e-mail">E-mail</option> </select> <br> How did you find us? <br> <form action=""> <select name="How did you find us?"> <option value="you were recommended to me">You were recommended to me</option> <option value="google search">Google search</option> <option value="yahoo search">Yahoo search</option> <option value="another search engine">Another search engine</option> </select> </b> </font></p> </form> <form action=""> <input type="button" value="Click here to submit"> </form> </body> </html> </form> THANKS TO ANYONE WHO REPLYS Hi all, I have a slight problem with homework, I am supposed to edit my html file, which I did then up load t to the webspace. For some reason I can't get the logo to work and I don't know how to upload it to the webspace correctly so you'll see the work I did. I also have a index.htm file they had me to use.

Does anybody have any idea why this site is not working!! Please help. Thank you. This is my site: http://www.waynerooneyonline.com I moved my wordpress blog to the root yesterday after finishing it. The problem is that if you click on the left menu, any other page that isn't the index has the old menu with links that don't work. The thing I don't get is that the menu is in an include file, so should all be the same!! Also there is one file in the wordpress template for the left cloumn, so it should be the same througout the site. Can anyone help? thanks ok first off... I looked at every site I could find to help me with this, but none of it helps out at all! Let me first also say that I have a site where I store my Fanfictions that I write myself. What I would like to do is to create something where the people that read the stories can review it on my site.( meaning to comment on it and even rate it) Here is the Site: http://annsanime.awardspace.com/YaoiFanfictions.html But here's the thing... I'm so confused about it... all the tutorials are not really clear on some things like what files to use or Exactly how to edit the forms or even how to put what file where or what to name it or to put in it.... it's all confusing to me.... I know how to make a form but that's about all.... other than that... I'm totally stumped! please someone help me! ~Ann What up Everyone!

Hello, I am learning HTML coding from a lynda.com video class and I am a little confused. The instructor keeps saying that different browsers don't support all the tags in the same way. This makes no sense to me. The whole reason that we had the desktop publishing revolution with standardized page layout and fonts (Postscript) was so that anything printed anywhere would look the same. Now, I'm learning that this is not the case with browsers. Isn't this like 2 steps forward and 1 back? I'm befuddled... Any insight into this lack of compatibility would be welcome. I mean even OpenOffice will read Word documents. Why can't we all just agree on the same standards for our browsers? Thanks for your input! ~Antonio I've created a sample website here and cannot figure out where the whitespace between images is coming from! It doesn't appear in Dreamweaver, but does in both Firefox and IE6. I've tried editing the border, padding and spacing properties of the table, rows and images to no avail. I've also tried to change these properties in CSS with no results. Any ideas? Josh Dear friends: May I ask for your help in resolving thorny HTML issues on my frameset site at: Contemporary Russian Poetry http://www.newpoetryreview.com/RusPoet/ username: Russian password: Poetry What I did was to duplicate the frame structure of this site by modifying an earlier site that I created some years ago at. Unfortunately, this site is private and password protected, so I can't give you the URL. The link "frameset" brings up two error messages: it asks for IDENTITY. That is the name of the folder in the old version and has been renamed by "RusPoet". Secondly, it asks for "challenge.html" This has been renamed "intro.html" and, finally, it says that it can't find TOC.htm. This file has been renamed TOC.html. I simply replaced the contents of one by the other. But still, after hours of frustration, I can't seem to make the site work properly. Please note that the home page of my site is NOT a frame site. I have a link at the bottom of the page (NEXT) that takes you to my frameset1.html. The reason is that I want my readers to be able to bookmark the site and the first standard HTML home page allows them to do this. By the way, I use Dreamweaver 7 as my HTML editor. I would really appreciate your help. Looking forward to hear from you. Thank you. Benjamin Hi all , I am kind of new to HTML, MHTML & Dreamweaver. I know the basics.... How to make this sort of a website .. http://www.keen.com/details/Spirited...nships/1205476 I mean what she has done in the red, green and pink part. I know how to create a website ...but how to make such a thing and post it in a website as profile. After I make the website in Dreamweaver should I save it as HTML or MHTML ? Also this is the web where i wd post it ( see attached pic ) ....now shd i post the source script from dreamweaver after i make the website ?? what i confused is , after i post only the script in the Describe your service area ( see pic ) ...wont it look for the source files, i mean the jpgs, gifs, mid etc etc ... I wd be thankful if someone can guide me on this .... Thanks Amlan Hi, I'm not too sure if this is the right section for this, so forgive me if it's not... I am about to embark on designing a new site, I have some experience of HTML and general design, but not too much beyond that. The site I am aiming to develop is to be a lot more dynamic than anything I have done in the past. I am not too sure on the best methods for acheiving what I want, so I will list the desired features. It would be really helpful if someone could tell me which languages I need to look at. I am prepared to learn for this (already started looking into very basic xml and php), but the main goal is an easy to use, well presented site in a relatively short time. The features I require are as follows: 1. A news/post section for only selected members to log in and add content (including the odd graphic). It would be useful if each post could exist as an independent 'module' and, for instance, appear on its own embedded on another site. 2. A music player (probably flash, this on itself is not an issue) that can also be embedded in another site. 3. A user forum (I have a MySQL database, but have no real experience of using it) - possibly using PHPBB?. 4. A number of linear comments sections that can exist below posts and other items (that does not necessarily require login, but can include a name and comment). 5. A site design which remains the same page for page but where the content can be entirely different (so the title and links etc. remain the same). Once again, I am not looking for detailed instructions on how to acheive this, just what I need to start looking at and any tips or problems I am likely to run into. I would be extremely grateful if someone would take the time to indulge me. Thanks in advance! Hi, please tell me what should I start learning to create an interactive website like facebook.com and photobucket.com . I have good knowledge in HTML and CSS but I want a website where people could register, have profiles, upload pictures, post comments to others etc. Just don't know how to start and what to read Please help Thank you |
