HTML - Incorporating Remote Text [file]..? And Overall Assistance Needed For New Website
I don't know if this even belongs in HTML, but my question is whether or not there is any way I can include text seamlessly within a webpage from a remote location, i.e., a text file... I guess... so that it works like an iframe. Or should I just give it up and use an iframe?
The website I'm creating is located he freshsession.net23.net Please take a minute to look through it. I know like half the nav links aren't working; that's because I don't know what I want to do for them yet. I haven't done this in years and I've never been that advanced so I'm really rusty. How should I lay this out? The top is going to be a picture that I'm still working on, so ignore that part (obviously the easiest to ignore). I'm just using divs right now, but what I don't like is having to have the same page for every page. I only want the content to change, but for some reason I'm not feeling iframes. But if that's my only option, I'll sure go with it. For the drawings page, I was going to use a gallery script and have them all right there. I want it to be very minimal and simple. Then for the blog I don't really know what to do, and for the guestbook I don't know what to do. Like I said, I want everything to be really nice and simple and preferably integrated. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated (regarding the layout set up in general, a gallery script, blog, or guestbook, for example). Thanks a lot! Please throw me your tips and ideas! Similar TutorialsI have minimal experience using frames. I would like to design a site with a frame layout very similar to this site: http://watertowine.us/ (the contact page in particular) If you'll notice the scroll bar on the right appears only on half of the page and the top flash header of the page remains constant throughout all pages. It will probably use two pages........like index.htm and indexcontent.htm which is the page that will appear in the frame. However I'm not sure how to set up the size of this frame and also how to call up the page to appear in the frame. Could somebody shed some light on this? thanks in advance. No longer need assistance. I'm writing my web site in Notepad++, using XHTML (source: w3schools tutorial) , and also getting into XML. This is my website. What I want to do is like this: 1) Move all the text content of my website to mywebsite.xml, organized in text blocks corresponding to each web page E.g.: I cut the text content from the HMTL of the "my profile" web page and paste it to the XML file as a text block under a suitable heading. By text content I mean all the text that is viewable, like "Autodidact. Freelance English-Spanish translator and style proofreader..." 2) Mark each text block in the XML E.g.: I mark the above mentioned text block with an id, "profile" 3) Place a link in the page's HTML to the corresponding text block in mywebsite.xml, so it calls the text when the page is loaded E.g.: where the original text content of the "my profile" page was, I place a link to the corresponding text block marked "profile", so the text is called and viewable when the page is loaded That way I'd manage text content more easily. For example, the text of my menu entries is the same in all pages. I want that when I need to modify the text of a menu entry (e.g. replacing "graphic design" by "visual art"), I can just do it in the XML file and that's all, instead of making the change in every web page. Also having all of my website's text content stored in a single file makes it easier to locate and modify strings. How can this be done? I have no clue. Thanks in advance. God bless you. hi this is reddy i want to update the text box values in my website by using any note pad r some other with out updating the whole code in the server every time to change the value help me Right now, working with my website is a bit of a pain in terms of adding content and the way it's displayed on Google looks very unprofessional. I am currently acquiring some assistance so I can get my website back on the road. Please contact me by MSN @ michael40449@gmail.com OR on Steam, my username is soldatboi76 First come, first serve. EDIT: Site is also viewed unaligned with the Internet Explorer browser (Margins) I have a website for my company, and at the bottom I have a clickable button which gives access to "resources" such as manuals and diagrams which is only accessible with a username and password. I would like to add a button that automatically opens the remote desktop connection tool (mstsc) on the users machine, and ideally ammend some of the default settings of this (drives, sounds etc). I have no idea if this is even possible! Any pointers (or a simple NO!) would be great! Hey, I have a few questions.. It might take php, Im not sure. What I am wanting to do is kinda like make 1 page where some one can type in one box then it displays above. View image, It shows what i mean. Ruff example... could any one put this together.. i have tried and tried I get nothing that saves or nothing.. http://i36.tinypic.com/2r7aqo5.png Hi, I'm new here. Nice to meet all of you, and thank you for bearing with me. I found a free flash panorama viewer, pan0, that I am using to view my own panoramas. The code looks like this (please ignore the emoticon, it came up because a colon and capital D are next to each other in the code): <object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0" width="100%" height="100%" title="Hello, Panorama"> <embed src="pan0.swf?panoSrc=sample_full.jpg" allowFullScreen="true" width="100%" height="100%" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" bgcolor="#DDDDDD"> </embed> </object> My problem is that I want to use this on blogger, but can't store sample_full.jpg locally on Google. I tried substituting https://path/to/where/my/image/is/stored/on/picasa for sample_full.jpg, but it doesn't work. Is there a way to get this to work on blogger? I see that there are commercial programs that create standalone flash panoramas, but I am not that heavily into it to spend the money. I'd like to create a standalone flash application on my own, if that's possible, or find a workaround. I'm a Linux user, if that matters. Thanks for your help. Hi I am building a website with a great number of very similar webpages which all share a common link list running down one side of the page containing 500 links. though this list will only start with one link it will grow over time. updating this list will become increasingly difficult as it grows due to the vast number of pages it will be on. my question is can i create this list in a single location,like in a text or second htm file and request on each of the 500 pages to reference this single location when the page loads. the list links are a standard web link, as such, here followed by the many ghost buttons whioch will over time become real links <a href="001.htm">001</a>: <br> <a href="002.htm">002</a>: <br> <u>003</u>:<br> <u>004</u>:<br> <u>005</u>:<br> <u>006</u>:<br> <u>007</u>:<br> <u>008</u>:<br> <u>009</u>:<br> and so on... so what i expect i need is the code to draw the list from the single source and place this info on each of the 500 pages. Thanks for your time =) I want to load a local html file in an IFrame. The main page is loaded from a remote site (http://www.mysite.com). How can I do that if I don't have a web server installed on the local machine? Is there any workaround? Thank you! I am in the process of modifying my website and one area has me stumped. There is a command on my page that when I select a thumbnail on my page it creates a larger image of that image. Here is the syntax: <div id="picBox" style="position:absolute; right:140px; top:125px; visibility:hidden;"> </div> When this page was originally created I only had one row (table) of images. Now I have numerous rows (tables) of images, but when I select a thumbnail, the enlargement-image does not 'follow' the scroll-bar. (in other words it stays within the constraints of the picBox command, 125 pixels from the top). I suspect that I have to have a picBox defined for every table (row) of images but I am very much a newbie with HTML and I do not know how to write the code for that -- so I'm looking to you guys for some advice. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I know this can be done easily by JavaScript or CSS, but want to to keep it as simple as possible and without security warnings. I want to make a web form which will take the number that is supplied by the user in a text field and will add it to the end of below hyperlink: http://apps.facebook.com/inthemafia/...vite.php?from= so the form action will generate this: http://apps.facebook.com/inthemafia/...vite.php?from=[text field contents] without the brackets I have tried many parameters but did not get it to work Any help is welcome, and if you know of a simpler way of doing this, I would really appreciate it Code copied below: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Mafia Wars Invite Tool</title> </head> <body> <form action="http://apps.facebook.com/inthemafia/status_invite.php?from=" method="get" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="form1" target="_blank" id="form1"> http://apps.facebook.com/inthemafia/status_invite.php?from= <input type="text" name="textfield" id="textfield" /> <input type="submit" name="send" id="send" value="Send" /> </form> </body> </html> Hi all, Please excuse all of my ignorance. I am teaching myself (and being taught by nice people like yourselves) on html and website building. Mods, I was unsure as to where to put this and apologize if I am in the wrong section. This will be a semi long post as I have lots of questions for all of you. I will organize it into sections in hopes to get a more detailed response. The Background I have experience with basic html and have (until now) only used free web servers with web site building tools and just used html for templates and buttons etc. I run my own fish/aquarium supply business and wanted my own .com name instead of a sub-domain. So my better half bought me a a domain and basic hosting package from godaddy.com -I am running OS X on a powerbook via safari and firefox. -My host is at godaddy.com -I am confused and in need of help. The Problem Well, so far for me being "good" with websites what a joke that was. Without a web site editor software like the free sub-domains come with I am lost. I understand a html editor would be the best and easiest way to make pages for my site? -My main problem is I cannot get html documents onto my website. I understand I should be using FTP? I have tried with no success, I am unsure as to which folder to even move the page to, I dont even know which one is my home page *Blushes* -I am very new to FTP and would like some advice for the best way to transfer HTML to a site. -I also dont know how to name the page i.e.: mypage.com/AboutUs.html (How do call the page "about us") -I have tried looking around on go daddy for some answers and havent found much info besides it telling me to use FTP to upload files. I must not have done it right because i am still getting the "oops this site isnt up yet" message. If you couldnt tell I need a lot of help. I really just need to know how to get my first few pages up and running....I just dont know how to get the files from where they are on my computer to my site, since the package I have doesnt have a website builder/software. If your willing to educate me, Im willing to learn. All help is appreciated and feel free to laugh at my ignorance. Im doing my best. Drew P.s. Do you need the name of my site in order to help me? If so, Am I allowed to even post the name of my site for reference purposes? Hi everyone, I am sorry to come here and being lame asking a question that specific but since i was late to do my wedding website, i am having a hard time finishing it! I would like to ask if someone could show/explain to me how to have a list with items price and number of items! A first submit button which would give the total and the next one send the form! here's what i would like to have at the end: http://www.ornella.be/pages/mariage.php then choose a couple and you'll have their weeding list and that's what i'd like to have with the total button and send the information I thank you in advance and i am very sorry to ask like that but it would be true help thanks again dave Using the meta http-equiv="refresh"... code I'm having my website slide through each page of my website. Is there any way I can have the user STOP the refresh onclick? So that if t hey want to stay on that page they can instead of being redirected to the next? Thanks Hi. I currently working on a site that displays furniture (how exciting). My client wants to just have lots of pages with the photo and description of the item on the page. The juts have <<< Previous || Next >>> buttons on the bottom of the page. That not a problem. The problem I've got is that when the client adds new furniture he wants the latest as the first page. This means that everytime I add a new page, I have to rename all the other pages too. i.e. furniture01.htm will then become furniture02.htm and I will have to change all the links on the Previous and Next Buttons. Is there a way of me not have to rename all the pages everytime I add a new page. Please Help. Leroy Ok, I don't have a way to show you how it's not working, but I would like to put text boxes under each comment picture on my comments page (much like you see on comment sites for MySpace and other networking sites), where the user may copy and paste the code into their own pages and use the images I provide. I found out how to do a basic 'form' with the name being "blank" and the value being the link to my desired image in my FTP, with the "ftp://ftp." taken out and replaced with "http://". So far, all attempts have been futile, and I'm not sure just what I'm doing right or wrong anymore...can anyone help me out? Please note that I'm vision impaired, and it may be somthing as small as me not seeing a particular tag or something, but I doubt it, as I've used my screen reader to read th ecode for me both when inputting it and reading it. I also note that my posts are in larger font so I can read them easier, I'm not telling anyone to do this, only asking, to please reply in size 3-4 for me please...and th kindly Here is an example of what I've done, which didn't work: <form> <input type="text" name="blank" value="<center><a href="http://silverwolfden.com"><img src="http://silverwolfden.com/images/comments/compliments/great_pic/great_pic_10_1_sw.gif" alt="Silver Wolf Den" border="0"></a><br><a href="http://www.silverwolfden.com" maxlength=30 maxheight= 5></a></center>"> </form> If you'd like to see my website (even though there's no way to see what the problem is I noticed ppl were asking to have ppl post the sites they work on it's http://www.silverwolfden.com --deleted-- I have several websites that I maintain and update. A lot of them are just textual changes and I would think my customers can do these themselves by editing a simple .txt file. I was hoping my choices are avalable so that I can just insert this tag into my web pages and then give them login info to their edit page or show them how to upload the .txt file. I hope this is an easy one with several answers. Is it possible these tags could discipline your rankings in the search engines? Thanks, Jason |
