HTML - Folder Vs File Naming Standards

Hi everyone!

I've been away for quite a while and I'm very happy to see things are still up and running around here

It's been a fairly long time since I've focused on website development. However I find myself back in the saddle and ready to shine away my rustyness


Over the past several months I have noticed many sites around the world changing their website designs to a more image oriented design and with eye-pleasing results to many of their visitors.

Does anybody know if there is some sort of "website design standards" that came out detailing these new kinds of websites?

@Scoutt: I bet you know right off the top of your head

Hi i need help i need to make a webpage that lists folders and subfolders within a folder and it needs to automaticaly update when a new folder is added Please help

Hallo,

I am very much a beginner with HTML and need some help. I have a very big photo gallery. What I want to do is make a link on an HTML page that will open up the folder so that you can browse through the photos.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I have been following advice that I have read elsewhere to restructure my site to reflect the different parts, so splitting up images and html files into subfolders to make it all more manageable with regard to quickly identifying pages/images etc that relate to different parts of the site. Previously I have kept all html pages in public_html and all images in a folder public_html/img.

If I split them up as I have started to do, the only thing is I cannot see is how I can then link back from html pages in folders lower than the root back to the html pages actually in the root folder.

To explain what I mean: If some of my html pages are in subfolders of public_html but they all contain the links on the main 'tabs' of my site (home, contact, about etc) that reside in the public_html, how do I link back to the main pages from the pages stored lower down the structure?

Have I interpreted advice on folder structure incorrectly or am is there something I don't know?

Thanks

Ive got a url address connecting to a shared offline drive, for some reason it doesnt work when i put it into a link, although when i paste the address into a browser it works fine.

The link is '<A HREF="file://atlefs0027/dept$/Supply_Management/01 Bids JTB &amp; WB &amp; BB">Access Supply Management Drive</A>'

When i click on the link, the link removes the 'file://' and goes to 'atlefs0027/dept$/Supply_Management/01 Bids JTB &amp; WB &amp; BB'. Which ofcourse doesnt work.

How do i keep the 'file' part of the link?

Hi,
This is jyothi, i am creating tree folders in html but i don't know the correct script. Can anyone please help me.

EDIT: Sorry, found the answer. No need to give me a solution.

I've decided to create a photo album in HTML (and Flash and CSS) using a nifty little Flash thing called SimpleViewer. However, I want multiple galleries, each within their own folder within the main photo gallery parent folder. How can I link something from one HTML file in a gallery's folder to the parent folder and then into another HTML file in another gallery's folder? Or if there's a way, directly to the other gallery's HTML file?

Note I'm keeping this gallery offline for now, I'm only using it to show family and friends and for myself as it's much less cumbersome than using software or the standard Windows XP folder structure.

Sorry if this is confusing, please say so if it is. Thanks in advance for all help, it's really appreciated.

Does anybody know how to make a HTML page that shows an overview of the contents of one of my web folders? Like an ftp-page but with the possibillity to add css-style to the page...?

I mean, of course, one of the folders on the server in wich my web site is uploaded.

Example: I have 10 PDF-files in the folder "PDFs" on my server. I do not want to make links to the files, but I want the files (not the content of the files, but the filenames) to be viewed direcly in a HTML file.

Is this a java-script job, or can i do it in another way?

Hope you guys out there can help me..

This is probably a newb question but i want to point a domain directly to a folder on my server without forwarding. I guess using DNS. How do I do that? Currently I have www.utinternationals.org and it is forwarded to utinternationals.com but the issue is that the domain host puts a banner at the bottom and I want to point it to a folder on my server with a redirect to the website to lose the banner. Any Ideas?

Hi, I am building the download centre of http://www.i-conica.net
I have a directory structure similar to the image in this thread.
http://forum.i-conica.net/cgi-bin/fo...?m-1207092405/

The bottom image, my plan is to have the download page, with continually updated information on the new versions of software, put the software files in a separate folder and link to the folder, i thought if there were only one file in there ending .exe it would download it?
It doesn't it just displays the directory.
I wanted to be able to just throw the files in their own folder and not have to worry about changing links to the file. because the folder would remain the same.

Is this possible?
Thanks.

Hi all,
I am trying to get the faveicon on my webpage. I have read some places that IE needs the image to be in the root folder of the web server. Is this true? Has anyone got it to work with the image in a different folder?

The reason I ask is because I have some trouble accessing files in the root folder. If it is possible not to use it I would prefer to.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Jehan

At present i am creating a knowledge base at work and have an admin access link that goes to a folder on a server.

What i want is client or server side html to request a password when this link is clicked and if the password is not correct then a message box shows that says the password is incorrect.

Can anyone help?

I have a PHP application that our company uses for basically everything. Now I'm needing to add hyperlinks to folders on the shared drive on the server, since this is now where everyone will be storing the files they work on. The map drive is on the same server as the website but so far I have been unable to figure out the syntax for the hyperlink in order to be able to open the folder contents. Any ideas on how I could do this?
