Similar TutorialsI have icons I made that I want to use for the nav bar, and I made a background image that I want to use, but I cant get it up properly. How do I make my nav bar scrollable and link it to other pages, and create those pages o.0? So far the code looks like this: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>Saad Ismail Digital Artist</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css"/> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <style type="text/css"> body { background-image: url(homepage.gif); } </style> </head> <body <h1 align="center"> </h1> <h1 align="center">Saad</h1> <p align="center">Digital Artist</p> <p align="center"> </p> <p align="center"> </p> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="inner"> <div id="header"> </div> <div id="navbar"> <ul id="nav"> <li> <div align="center"><a id="nav1" href="../website/About me.html">About me</a> <a id="nav2" href="../website/Illustrations.html">Illustrations</a> <a id="nav3"href="../website/Videos.html">videos</a> <a id="nav4"href="../website/Animation.html">Animation</a> <a id="nav5"href="../website/Photography.html">Photography</a></div> </li> </ul> </div> <div id="content"></div> </div> </div> </body> </html> </body> </html> Ive been asked to fix up an old webpage. The old web master is a bit senile and can not complete the page. I had created a php page but the server is so old that it doesnt support php. I want a page with a simple leftnav and I need to add a photogallery with thumbnails... anyone have any advice for me? Are there any good free templates out there that could do all this for me? Or maybe some good tools? Thanks in advance Hi all, Basically, I'm an amatuer at this. I have created several websites, but most of them are through templates being edited on the likes of Dreamweaver. I have been creating my template, and I have finished the banner, then all the buttons directly underneith it. I have a background colour... and now I'm up to the the area the text is supposed to go into, directly under the buttons (home, contact, forums etc). I want this to be a different colour to the background colour, and for it to just be a box, 950pix wide, and go as high/low as I want it to depending on how much text is going on that particular page. I hope you all understand what I mean... I've got a feeling there is a possibility this might be a CSS issue, but I'm not 100% sure, so I didn't know which topic to put it under. Can anyone please help me? It would be much appreciated. I have been trying to figure this out on my own for hours now (I'm the type of person who doesn't like to ask for help ) I'm not sure if this is in the correct section, but what is the use of a template in PSD form with all the layers in it? Hi, not sure whether I'm in the right section but I have downloaded a template from a website which is the form of a e-commerce website, most of the files in the zip file that I downloaded were in php format. I downloaded this via FTP to my hosting file database but when I try going to the link of my doman it comes up with an error? Am I uploading the files properly or do they need to be done in a certain way? Thanks for any help In my website I want to show several art projects. Each project page should look exactly the same, however have different pictures and text. Therefore is it possible to create some sort of html template which takes 4 pictures and some text and will output the right format. The reason for this is that if i decide I want to change the format of the project page, I only have to edit one template instead of several project pages. Thanks in advance Calypso Can any one direct me to a tutorial on coding xhtml editable templates. ( or give me advice) I used to use dreamweaver to build templates but I haven't bothered to up date it instead I am using HTML-kit. What I liked about dreamweaver was that you could build a template and apply it to every page so you only had to alter the template not every page. I am fine using css for style. its building a template for the repeating elements of each page like links etc and then adding editable regions. I would would like the freedom to build my own rather than use pre made ones. Thanks does anyone know of any nice HTML/CSS templates that I could use for my ecommerce website? or would anyone like to help me design a nice layout? I would be most appreciative I have tried searching but unable to find anything nice. So I really am at the end of the barrel. Thank-you for your help. okay so i dont have dreamweaver or nething like that. i made a website template that is the home page. i want all the other pages to look like that as well except with different writing which i will want to edit with html when i want to my problem is im not sure how to make my template work and upload it to the web. i can do it as a jpeg but not as an actual template. if some one can help me i would greatly appreciate it thanks Hi. I need to find a way of displaying some thumbnail photos in a table cell across a bunch of different tempates. I put a new thumbnail in the group about once a week, but I dont want to edit every template I have. Is is possible to have code in the table cell that say's get thumbnails.htm and put them in this cell That way I can just edit thumbnails.htm and it will show up on all the templatess/pages I'm sure it can be done, but I'm not sure how to go about it. Thanks Leroy Hows it goin everybody.. I'm just starting to get involved in web design. I have a quick question. I have the template and have modified it to fit my needs. I understand it uses the images from the pack/bundle I D/L'd. I want to load it into geocities and I copied and pasted the code over , but it comes up with just blank with text and a grey screen. I loaded the images into my yahoo account but its not sourcing them. i believe they still have the path that was on my comp. What path would I use to load them off off a remote server (i.e. yahoo) ??? Thanks in advance. I'm sure this could of been worded more efficiently but I'm still very new to this. I'm trying to put together a website to sell my Wedding products...does anybody know of a website where I can find free wedding templates? I need some button templates, i will be changeing the color, i just need some becic stuff. How can I reuse templates to build my web site instead of copy paste the top in each single page ? Is it possible only using an authoring software such as dreamweaver ? thanks Hiya, I'm developing a free website for someone. Wondered if anyone knew of any good sites that offer free templates that aren't too bland. Cheers, James I am having some problems with my template, I have to upload it a few times before it work. Seems like when I've edited and upload it, it doesn't change the files link to it. This can't be due to me linking them wrongly, cause they used to work before after a few tries. But i've been trying for a few days with no success. Any advice? Thanks ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nevermind i managed to solve it, I have to click save instead of letting dreamweaver do it automatically before it automatically updates the rest of the link file. Does anyone use Use.com for their templates? I'm trying to post an image template in my blog but blogger just shows the html and not the actual images. Hi, I'm looking at creating a website for a university assignment, and am not allowed to create the code in Dreamweaver. Is there any way to store the constant layout components in one file, referenced by each separate page in the site, so I wouldn't need to go through each page to edit the design after I've built it? Put another way, is it possible to use template-style files to apply to HTML pages, without using the Dreamweaver's built-in varieties? If this is possible in JavaScript or PHP instead of HTML, please let me know. Thanks for your help, Christian |
