HTML - Absolute Positioning Help!!!! (novice)

Hi,
Ive spent hours upon hours painfully sculpting this website and i can't for the love of gaaawd get the positioning of my element standard throughout the website.

The home page and the watercolour-classes page have the bottom graphics bar in the same position But different from all the other pages. All i want it to do is be the same throughout and its only out by about 10px.

why oh why

Ive been struggling for days and weeks with this problem and cant work it out. Im sure its something simple but as a self taught web designer i dont know it all.... far from it.

Any ideas or suggestions Please.

The website is http://www.miriartist.co.uk

Any help or light on the matter would be great THANKS

I'm new here so forgive me if I've posted in the wrong place.

I'm working with HTML. My goal is to use an image as a link but I also need to use absolute positioning for the image as well.

Is there a code that combines absolute positioning of an image where the image is also a link?

I've attempted to combine : <IMG STYLE="position:absolute; TOP:35px; LEFT:170px; WIDTH:50px; HEIGHT:50px" SRC="---THE URL OF MY HOSTED IMAGE---"> with:

<p align="center"><a href="---the URL of the link---" class="fw_link_page"></p>

But I simply don't know how to do this. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I want to use my images as links, but I also want them absolutely positioned relative to their parent div. However I have come across a problem, to make them links I need to wrap <a>s around them which then means their positioning becomes relative to the anchor tag.

Can anyone suggest anything to counteract this problem? I do need them absolutely positioned. The only alternative is an image map, but I'm reluctant to do that because of the slow load time for the whole image, plus all the extra co-ordinate coding I'd have to do.

The problematic page has this url:

http://geosci.uchicago.edu/~moyer/Mo...GroupPage.html

It shows up in firefox the way I want it to. The pictures enlarge right on top of their thumbnail accompaniments. The enlarged images are absolutely positioned. However, in chrome, internet explorer and safari, they enlarge several hundred pixels left of where I want them to. Is there a way I can have the enlarged images positioned relative to the thumbnails? Or can I add a margin to the code that only firefox will recognize?
I can send you the code if you need it to figure out the problem. It is just long and confusing, because I was modifying somebody else's code and I am a newbie.

hey!
i wonder if any one can help me out?
scroll a little way down this page www.myspace.com/tonyvincent and on the left you will see 4 (clickable) album covers with their 'buy now' and 'itunes' buttons underneath each one. what i want to do is to make it so that the album covers (and their buttons) (instead of being listed one under another) form a box / square type shape. two colums with two in each if you like. can anyone help me code this? i've no idea how to line images up side by side

many thanks in advance for any guidance

Hiya

I am designing my first website for a charity. I have learnt simple HTML but not that good yet so I am confused on two things:

1. Why can't I see my images, I have been building my site offline and linked to where the images are saved. The other day I could view them and today I can't, I have checked several times that the file route is correct and it is. So why do they just come up with a box and small red x?

2. How do you make words (such as menu navigation) change colour and pop out when you hover over them?

I hope I have posted this in the correct place, forgive me if I haven't but I did not know where else these questions should do.

Any help you can give and also sites that have cool example codes would be great.

Thank you in advance
Michaela

I am running into a wall trying to add a sidebar to my tumblr blog.
muttonpizza.com
I could play with the html code enough to tweak my blog (mostly through trial and error and picking things up on w3schools.com). But I want to add a top left sidebar with the "About this Blog" box I now have at the bottom of my page. And maybe a right sidebar with links. I've done a lot of Googling for help and trying different codes I've found to get this but I just don't have the code right and I cannot figure out where to place it in the code page. I do not have a sidebar at present.

I know this should be easy (everything is easy when you know how:-) But I just can't get it to work.

First, please tell me how to post my code here. (Could not find it in FAQ)

Ok, so I need help coding a mouseover feature for a few graphics

ANY help developing a code would be GREATLY apreciated, Thanks!

I'm sure that title was kinda confusing, but what I meant was how is this achieved?
Typing this into your address bar and opening:
www.mywebpage.com/about/

This doesn't work for me; I don't know how to do it. I have tried putting a index.html in the /about sub folder, but it still doesn't work. I apologize if I have not explained this sufficiently.

Hello, im working on a small website project for me and my coworkers, none of us are very good with HTML and i'm trying to figure out something that I am sure is probably a simple thing to people that know this stuff. I have two forms, "box1" and "box 2", and I want both of the inputs to save to a text file when the person entering hits "submit". I'd also like the "submit" button to redirect to another page following the saving of the inputs to the text file... i'd apprecate any help you can give me Ive been searching google for a while but its just confusing me.

Hey guys:
I am new to this and have been catching on real quick. This is for my final project for college and i have one minor issue i have been looking into for the past 20 minutes now. I cannot get the nav bar on the left to align to the top near the banner i had created. Very simple for some but an issue for me. Sorry to bother you guys, and i did search for this issue. Thanks in advanced,

Oh and heres the site:

How do I figure out the lenght of the page (content, not browser window) so that I can make all of my regions line up at the bottom? I noticed that % in the height attribute is related to the window not content. I have also tried auto, but that is different for different content. My page has an outside region, a left nav bar and a content region, and I don't know how to make the bottom line up without tables.

Sorry if this is confusing. Thanks in advance.

Hello all! This is my first post here and after getting little to no help from Yahoo answers I decided to go where the pros are. I want to thank everybody in advance for taking the time to read my question and offer any help. I also want to say that I am not looking for somebody to do the work for me...just point me in the right direction to get started on figuring it out myself.
You know...give a man a fish....blah blah blah.

Now for my question:
I am building a simple HTML template for a friend to use on an auction site. My friend has absolutely no idea of how to edit HTML so to make it easier for her, I want to add forms that will allow her to input her information (item description, shipping and payment terms) and have it applied to the template in the correct place.

I had already received a snippet of code from a helpful fellow that will turn anything typed into the fields into HTML for her to copy and paste. The problem with it though is that it has no format and I cannot figure how to get it to display the code inside of the template I made.

I did a little tweaking of what I had to get the basic setup of the forms and such, but cannot figure out how to place the information from each textarea into the template.

I have done a few hours of research trying to find the answer, but keep coming up empty handed because I have no idea where to even start looking for the answer. Can it be done with HTML or will I have to use another language? (This will be done from her computer so from my understanding php and any other server side stuff will not work.)

The code I'm wanting to use (if possible) is attached as "Formcode.txt". The template I want to use it in is attached as "Template v1.3.txt". The forms do not necessarily need to be placed at those locations but the output needs to be there.

Thank you all so much for taking the time to help!

BTW, I know that there are tons of free WYSIWYG editors out there that she could download and use but this has bugged me to the point that I have to find the solution.

Morning all,
I am workign on a small intranet for my department at work. In creating it, this project has slowly snowballed into a larger project. Like most anything we do in life
The issue I am having, in the front screen, they would like to show our monitoring software, so at first glance you can tell if any servers are up or not etc. using iframes in design mode, it looks great. But when I view the page, the website I am calling in the iframe takes over the whole page. Below is the code, is there any fix or even so a better way of doing this?

Code:

table border="0" width="97%" id="table1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
	<tr>
		<td width="1063">

<table border="0" cellspacing="5" cellpadding="5" align="left" style="border-left-width: 0; border-top-width: 0; border-bottom-width: 0; width: 74%;" id="table2" height="412">
	<tr>
		<td style="border-right-style: solid; border-right-width: 1; border-left-style:none; border-left-width:medium; border-top-style:none; border-top-width:medium; border-bottom-style:none; border-bottom-width:medium; width: 90%;" valign="top">
		<p class="MsoNormal" align="left">&nbsp;
		<iframe src="https://btdhcp" height="400" width="800" frameborder="0" scrolling="yes"></iframe></p></td>
	</tr>
	</table>

Any assistance or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
