HTML - Good In Ie, Bad In Firefox. Also Xhtml Vs. Html

Could anyone please help me?
I created a login form. And when it is alone on a web page it displays properly in all browsers: IE , Opera and Firefox:
http://www.gpftt.com/a/html/
But when I insert it into a html template it remains good in IE but becomes wrong in Opera and Firefox:
http://www.gpftt.com/a/html/ind.html

I have tried everything I could - html and css editing. I removed all styles from the web page but it still remains wrong. I spent a whole day over it and still couldn't get it working.
Can anybody tell me wtf???

My website is: www.gstteam.co.nr

My main problem is the Rosters. If I open the Rosters in IE7 it looks good but when I open it on Firefox it looks terrible, the images are all over the place and cant even see some of the text that I have under the images. I am using PageBreeze (Free Version). Can somebody please help me how I can fix the problem, I will greatly appreciate it. Thanks

REally, I don't have that much time to be an expert at HTML or CSS - but was wondering what CMS' are quick to learn that has a lot of templates. I know WordPress is one - just wondering if there are anymore...I'm sure there is.

Kindly let me know if I can get professional templates which can be amended according to one's needs.

Does anybody here have any examples of websites constructed ONLY using HTML/CSS?

I would like to look at the source code and the files, and see how it's been made.

Hello..Just to describe my situation to you.
I am new and don't know how to create webistes, and I have no shame in that. I am fairly familiar with computers as I spend about 4 hours a day on computer. I have always wanted to know how to create webistes and create one of my won. I don't want to use geocities or freewebs, since that's not creating websites..there's no skill in that..I want to learn the hardcore html. I am sure it's not hard once u get the hang of it but I have no clue.

What I am asking of you pros on this site is:
1) suggest a good html creating software..somthing easy to understand and use for a beginner.
2) suggest some websites which give free megabites for you to start your site. Somthing I can practice html on.
3) If yuo are going to use html terminology..plz explain

Thank You..Any help would be greatly appreciated..doesn't have to be much

P.S. I know how to use utorrent well..so any program you suggest to me won't be a problem to find for me.
TY

I m wondering which hmtl editors everyone here prefers. I have downloaded HTML-Kit & Page Breeze but I am not the sharpest tool & I end up getting frustrated as I need a more user friendly editor. Something for the ADHD adult I really won't be using advanced things like media for now, only basic HTML & CSS. What I am trying to accomplish is to get a website done without media or movable images.

Also, someone told me that there are some editors which come with ready made commands, for e.g maybe such as creating a table by just clicking anywhere. Of course, I will have to specify other things.

Are there any editors which automate a lot of your work & save time?

Thanks a lot.

Everybody knows that HTML is very useful language for a site development and i have a knowledge about HTML language but i don't have no knowledge about XHTML. So what is the different between HTML and XHTML? If you know than please reply me.

What is the major difference between HTML / XHTML?

If yes, please could some1 point me in the right direction on how to go about this

Thanks, jackie xxx

I read somewhere that HTML 4.00/1 has been "replaced" by XHTML (which I assume is XHTML 1.0). Is this true? Should we be switching to XHTML 1.0 ?

This tutorial from http://library-cafe.com

If someone just says that this is the high time when you should convert your site from HTML to XHTML - you can halt or not. But if he can say this with proper logic then you must be going through his decision - adaptibility is another thing. So at first you must know basically what XHTML is. XHTML is really more similar to HTML than it is different. The "changes" aren't really changes, but just a set of stricter standards to obey. XHTML stands for Extensible HyperText Markup Language. XHTML is a cross between HTML and XML. Any XHTML document will be valid HTML and valid XML, which means it can be opened in any XML editor.

Why the need for XHTML?

* XML allows the developer to add new tags whenever they want, allowing for more flexibility and creativity.
* XHTML can be mixed with XML to provide easy updatable websites.
* New ways of accessing the Internet are being created every day. XML/XHTML is a common standard for all these browsers/clients, which stops different standards being created for each of these methods.
* XHTML is going to replace HTML in the near future so it will be useful if you already use it, as you will have one over on everyone who has stuck to using HTML.

New Doctype Declaration

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/">

And the tag becomes:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/" xml:lang="en" lang="en">

Just Some Rules

1. In the <head> tag the <title>Title here</title> tag must be first, nothing else

2. All tags must be lowercase, so no <TITLE> it must be <title>.

3. Any tag that doesn't have an ending tag, like <br>, must have a space and forward slash before the end like this: <br />.

4. All tag attributes must be surrounded by quotes, so replace <p align=center> with <p align="center">.

5. No attribute can have no value, so, for example, when using the <input> tag with checked at the end, you must change it to checked="checked".

6. All XHTML documents have to be well formed, so each file must have a html, head, title and body set of tags.

7. All documents must have a doctype, see above to find out the best one to use when you are new to XHTML.

I am a relative novice, so I'd appreciate help please - I have searched the web and other forums, but most answers are too complicated for me.

When I started coding a year ago, I used a template file and just worked things out as I went. It happened to have a XHTML 1.1 DTD, but since I didn't even know what a DTD was, I didn't care. It is only recently that I discovered that (1) when I tried to validate I had numerous errors, and (2) virtually non-one uses XHTML 1.1.

So now I am considering what Doctype I should use. There seem to be two opinions "out there".

I checked out the source code for about 20-30 popular sites and found XHTML 1.0 was used more than twice as often as HTML 4. Many people say XHTML is the way of the future, and requires tighter code, so why not use it? The free WYSIWYG editor I use (NVU) codes in XHTML as default.

However others say that some browsers don't handle XHTML well, and unless you need the extra features (and if you don't know what they are then you don't need them - my situation), then HTML 4 is still best - this seems to be the view taken in the excellent "Doctype and validation" topic on this forum. Some people go on to suggest taking a strict line on some of the optional coding rules (e.g. closing all tags) is a good practice, helps prepare you for XHTML, but is still good in HTML.

So, what is the common opinion here - HTML4 for "dummies" like me? Thanks.

Hey,

So its another on of them questions

So i want to know what would be best for me? ive never built a website and i havent learnt HMTL or XHTML or the many languages that there are.

i know its going to be a long process and i am happy to learn it as i want my company to have a really good site.

Thats the thing i run a production company and when someone checks out my site i want them to see how professional it is and also that they want my company to work for them!!!

So what would be better to start off with? HTML or XHTML? ive read a little about both and have a little understanding.

so as a novice would i need to learn HTML before i could even start to use XHTML?

i read this thread and the last post says use whatever? so the question that i have is which one would be better for me and better for my site? considering i dont know any languages!
