Here's an example page featuring wii games consoles if you want to go directly to the source. http://www.ecbiz.co.uk/wii-console.htm All comments welcome! A I have a Web site whose pages are XHTML 1.0 Strict, and the vast majority of them are valid pages, according to the W3C validation page. Some of the pages are not valid, however, as I use some items such as target="_blank" and ol start="26" and items like that. Would any problems develop with indexing (or with anything else) if I decided to make the invalid pages transitional and keep the rest strict? Is it ok to have a mix of XHTML 1.0 Strict and XHTML 1.0 Transitional on a single site? Hello everyone! I've scoured around for a bit looking for an answer to a stupid question without success, so I'll pose it here. Currently I am working on a bit of Java code that prints out a document in XHTML 1.0 Strict Transitional. The document displays a formatted list of stock information. What I want is an <option> drop down list with the days of the week, and upon clicking on one of those days, the page automatically refreshes to show the stocks for that day. So very simple, I need for the page to change to a different .html file in the same directory onmouseup, I believe the action is. Here is my .java code, for those interested: Code: import java.util.*; import java.lang.*; import java.io.*; import java.text.DecimalFormat; public class Portfolio { public static ArrayList<String> stocks = new ArrayList<String>(); public static DecimalFormat fmt = new DecimalFormat("0.##"); public static int tot = 0; public Portfolio(){} public static void main(String[]args) throws IOException { stocks.add("APPL 5.67 3"); stocks.add("DFG 54.87 78"); stocks.add("DGSF 93.62 5"); printPortfolio(stocks); } public static void printPortfolio(ArrayList<String> strar) throws IOException { String stockName = new String(); double stockVal = 0.0; int numShares = 0; StringTokenizer st; stocks = strar; PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter("Portfolio.html"); out.println("<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"); out.println("http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd\">"); out.println("<html xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">"); out.println("<head>"); out.println("<title>User's JSMS Stock Portfolio</title>"); out.println("</head>"); out.println("<body>"); out.println("<img border=\"0\" src=\"ball16.gif\" width=\"29\" height=\"28\" alt=\"Ball\">"); out.println("<pre>"); out.println("STOCK NAME PRICE SHARES OWNED TOTAL"); out.println("---------- ----- ------------ -----</br>"); for(String str : stocks) { st = new StringTokenizer(str); stockName = st.nextToken(); stockVal = Double.parseDouble(st.nextToken()); numShares = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken()); if(numShares > 0) { String SN = new String(); int nShares = 0; double price = 0; st = new StringTokenizer(str); SN = st.nextToken(); int numS = 25 - SN.length(); out.print(SN); //inserts # of spaces after data based upon data string length while(numS > 0) { out.print(" "); numS--; } price = Double.parseDouble(st.nextToken()); out.print("$" + price); double tumS = 18.0 - (Double.toString(price).length()); //inserts # of spaces after data based upon data string length while(tumS > 0) { out.print(" "); tumS--; } nShares = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken()); out.print(nShares); numS = 19 - (Integer.toString(nShares).length()); //inserts # of spaces after data based upon data string length while(numS > 0) { out.print(" "); numS--; } out.println("$" + fmt.format(nShares*price) + "</br>"); tot += Double.parseDouble(fmt.format(nShares*price)); } } out.println("--------------------------------------------------------------------"); out.println("Stock Portfolio Net Worth : " + "$" + fmt.format(tot) + "</br>"); out.println("</pre>"); out.println("<p>"); out.println("Please Choose a Day:"); out.println("<br /><br />"); out.println("<select name=\"day\">"); out.println("<option selected=\"selected\">Monday</option>"); out.println("<option>Tuesday</option>"); out.println("<option>Wednesday</option>"); out.println("</select>"); out.println("</p>"); out.println("</body>"); out.println("</html>"); out.close(); } } At the bottom you can see a simple option list. This is the one that I want to be the day-chooser. In many of the places I've looked it talks about passing the value of the choice to a server. This is not my intention. I am thinking, possibly stupidly, that I can store the value of the choice in a variable and then in javascript have the page refreshed to the corresponding .html file in the directory. If this is the case, example code would be very much appreciated haha. Thank you! Hi there, I m using dom with css in my web page. Using the document type <!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"> My dom effect is not visible in mozilla 2.0. In stead if I am using the document type <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> the dom effect is visible. Is this vaild using w3c standards? Any help in this issue would be appreciable. Thanks in advance Hi there, I m using dom with css in my web page.

Any help in this issue would be appreciable. Thanks in advance I am trying to make my contact page pass the W3C validation test. I have tried putting the form names (your name, your email and subject) in a p class with a defined font family and size because I think this is what W3C is telling me what to do but I still get lots of errors.. This is my form: HTML Code: <form method="post" action="contact.php">your name:<br /> <input type="text" name="name" size="19"><br />your email:<br /> <input type="text" name="email" size="19"><br />subject:<br /> <textarea rows="5" name="message" cols="30"></textarea> <br /> <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit"> </form> Please can someone shed some light onto this? Which document type is easy and most used either Transitional or Strict? As I have validated my page using w3c validator it asks to define class for each and every thing like <table class="xx"> .xx {width:40%;} This makes maintainablility easy but if I have to define 20 different widths I cant use class names just for these widths.. Will Transitional doc type support this?? Which one is better? XHTML STRICT 1.0 or XHTML 1.1 can make dynamic website in xhtml hello friends , I want to know that what is what is XHTML ? plz anybody help me . I want to know about this . Thankx ==== Please anybody tell me about the XHTML. What is the difference between HTML and XHTML? What are the benefits and is it worth learning? Thanx 4 the help! Hi. I *hate* I.E. I'm usually browsing websites in Google Chrome - & sometimes Mozilla / Opera. Ive designed a website (not public as yet), & it does validate for XHTML - it looks perfect on Opera / Mozilla & Chrome. But IE messes it up. Basically it uses Divs, & has a left menu, & the main content is a Google map. Also, top menu / banner & a footer at the bottom.. on IE7, the google map is UNDER the list of cities etc (left menu), instead of in the middle / right of the left menu.. Can anyone advise a website listing common IE problems & how web designers can fix it.. hi and goodafternoon i run wapsites and i want to convert the wml scripts to xhtml all my scripts are php based which i know will work in xhtml too. i also use mysql coding for database side of things . here is one of my smaller scripts . <?php <wml> <card title="sitename"> <p align="center"> <img src="logo.gif" alt="logo"/><br/> Welcome!!<br/><br/><a href="login.php"><img src="login.gif" alt="Login"/></a><br/><a href="terms.php"><img src="register.gif" alt="Register"/></a><br/> <br/> <big><b><a href="terms.php">Terms of use!</a></b></big> <br/> You are here with<br/> END; print 'Browser:'; $browser = explode ('/', $HTTP_USER_AGENT); print $browser[0]; print '<br/>'; print "IP-Adress: $REMOTE_ADDR<br/>\n"; print <<<END ---<br/> </p> </card> </wml> END; ?> how would i convert that to xhtml . and if its just a case of changing the tags then would it work on the rest of the scripts with sql coding in too . nclemale@hotmail.com or post your replies here thanks in advance Tell me..... I am reading about XHTML now and noticed that it is really no different than HTML. The only difference(s) are, correct me if I'm wrong, that XHTML is more strict with the rules. Lowered-cased letters, properly closed tags, etc, all that mumbo jumbo. If I'm already doing that with HTML, must I need to worry about XHTML? I'm pretty new to XHTML and I see that to properly close a br tag (and others), you usually put a space, then a slash, then a closing chevron, a la <br />. But I was wondering if there is anything fundamentally wrong with eliminating the space before the slash. It seems to work in my browser either way, and I think it makes the code a little easier to read and type. Thanks! so xhtml elements should always be in lowercase how does this extend to the case in css. for example if im using a xhtml doctype should i be using lower case color values like color:#ffffff vs color:#FFFFFF. I know as per a hexidecimal value "ffffff" is the same as "FFFFFF" and the same as "fFfFfF". they are all equal to the same value so it really doesn't matter but does the xhtml doctype dictate that these values should be in lowercase? |
