HTML - Help Setting Up The Main Layout Of My Website
hello,
I want to figure out a way to make the layout of my website fixed, depending on the screen resolution and browser of the person that is viewing my site. I would like a layout with three rows (Header, content, Footer). the Content row should be 2 columns. i would specifically like the Header and Footer rows to be Fixed. and the right column in the content row to have a scroll bar, so that the content in it is the only thing I can scroll while my top banner and footer stay put. Can anyone orient me towards tutorials or any sort of information that might help me solve this? Thank you! Similar TutorialsI'm getting rid of my index.html file, and replacing it with a brand new index.php file. But I have a problem... I have a forum which has an index.php file... If I rename my websites index.php file to homepage.php, am I able to have that page load up when someone visits my website, or does it have to be named index.php? I know I'm probably going to get ridiculed for this being my first post, but I can't seem to find any help elsewhere. I browsed the forum a bit before posting but didn't really know what to look for. OK so this the first website I've ever made and I only have limited html knowledge but so far this is what I have. www.freewebs.com/maurerrj Here is the html: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

Anyway, onto the point... I want to make an area to put all of my content like text and images and what not in that main area but I don't really have any idea how to do it. Also the background image isn't showing up in firefox, so if you have any idea how to fix that let me know. But for now I guess you have to look at it in IE. Also, I will be having galleries under the evergreen, perennials, etc. tabs, and I think I want to use lightbox, but I don't know much about it. So any tips with that would help. The lightbox website is http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/ Any help you can give me is TRULY appreciated. Hi, I am new to HTML and want to set the layout for my page as follows:- (1) The complete page size for my webpage is 1024x768. (2) I want to set a top Banner starting from left with width= 824 and Height = 180. (3) Then I want to have a skyscrapper Banner starting exactly where the above top banner ends and has width = 200 and height = 768. (4) Just below the top banner(as stated in point2) I will have the logo and below that all the products. I am using Front Page 2000. Please help me get started with putting up this layout. Thanks very much. Best Regards, Gagan Hi Guys, To begin with, i'm not a coder, but understand basic HTML and CSS codes. I can work with codes, to edit some and make a coherent page. The question relates to me wanting to build a webcomic site, but not knowing how to (and being too skint to pay anyone for it) I'm open to working with templates, however the webcomic homepage needs to be 'dynamic', i mean i need to be able to upload new comics to the server and have the homepage display the most recent one. Can someone tell me what a simple way to do this would be? The page i'm looking at is simply a homepage with the most recent comic, and navigation bar to allow users to click on 'previous', 'next', 'first' and 'latest' to move around. I'm talking about something like XKCD. I notice the page doesn't have any javascript (as i would have suspected) to accomplish this. Absolutely any help would be appreciated. I realise i haven't explained the problem in detail, but i don't really know what detail would be required. Post questions and i'll get back asap. Thanks again! Hi all, I just learn html+css and now I'm building my first website - http://www.bcichemical.com. My website look fine on IE but it doesnt look right on Mozilla, Can someone guide me on this matter. Thanks I am making a website and my layout changes from computer to computer. What i mean is, on my computer the layout looks fine, on another one the layout is distorted. www.mlbmotors.com Hi all, hopefully I'm posting this in the right spot. I'm in the process of designing the layout for a new website, but I'd like some input as far as your recommended method for programming the skeleton of the attached image. I'd like to keep the look similar to this. Your recommended coding samples would be GREATLY appreciated! I am not sure whether or not this is the right category to put this in but hopefully you lot wont mind... I just wanted to know that if i wanted to make a layout of any shape or design that I wanted, would I first have to make the layout on photoshop or fireworks and then import the picture onto dreamweaver, then use div tags to layer things and such? just wanting to know becuase I'm starting to try and make more cutting edge websites even though I have made a few with flash and such Thanks for your time Sam I am making my band a website. I have all the graphics i need (as in the menu and background), but I don't know how to put it all together and make it good looking. here is a picture of the general idea. That would go all the way to the bottom of the page and all the rest of the space would just be black. Now of course, thats not how it would exactly look, that was just a map out that I made in two seconds. I need just the area where people read all the info and such to scroll alone, and to have nothing else to do so. Just in case anyone doesn't know what i mean by "put it all together" I mean to get the top thing where it says band name on, and have the menu on the side, the place where everyone reads next to it, a bit of space below the area where people read, and the whole left be just black. thanks in advance EDIT- I realized i also should probably say this too. There is a graphic that runs through the entire page (band name area, menu, and place where people read). The band name area is a jpg, menu is a flash file, and then the place where people read is just regualr. Hi, I am trying to create a liquid website. I have drawn up a prototype on paint and the image is attached. Can anyone help me to turn the prototype into a website? Thanks, Is it wrong to use tables to build your website's layout? For example, on one column you'd have the navigation, and on the other column you'd have the main website content. Is this method wrong? well im creating a new website layout but its being an ass...or its just me well its like 5am here in the UK now which is probebly the reason for the problem but ah well i need it sorting asap and i cant work it out. my website is http://www.rharris28.com so you can see for yourself. basicly everything apart from the bar at the bottom should be on one line, but it just wont do it. i refuse to use tables as ive broken that habbit and want to stear clear of tables at all costs. so its all div's and css work. my html is HTML Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

please help...many thanks Hello there. Firstly, thank you for any and all help here. I am no web developer, but I have done some for my degree and other various bits/bobs. I produced a very simplistic website for a client, however the website is showing up different, on different PC's and I cannot get to the bottom of it. Now, I know this is down to my own inexperience in coding, but I followed various books, online suggestions for layout (relative, margin) positioning techniques, and the website looks fine on my PC, on my mrs work PC, even on the clients PC in his office (this is a mixture of IE8 - Win7, XP). However, I get an email from the client, and his understudy, last night saying the website looks terrible. All the text the 3rd column looks out of line (maybe because I used line:height?). As you can see, without having a clear understanding of the backbone of HTML coding, I am going to suffer. The CSS validates, the HTML validates with W3c. The website is: http://www.fpcuk.co.uk The issue is with IE7 and IE8. I coded the website in IE8, but it looks different on IE7. Could you have a look at it for me, and let me know where I have gone wrong. or give me some tips on making it compatible with both IE7 / IE8. There is only about 20 lines of code. It is mainly the right-hand column. Here 's a few images: IE7 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...sueWithIE7.png IE8 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/Jertsy/IE8.png I have nothing but respect for Web Developers, having to build websites for different browsers versions, damn.. So, after looking at my code - can you see any glaring issues that will cause it to distort the layout in different versions. Thank you very much. Spencer K EDIT: FFS!!! I'm tearing my hair out with this. I just cannot get the website to look right in IE7 and IE8 - its driving me fking crazy.. Even adding; Code: <meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=EmulateIE7″ /> To the top of the page, hoping this will force IE8 to be compatible with IE7 does not work. How on earth am I supposed to figure this out. Everything I try looks different, everything. Not much help here either. Hey all, I'm new here, and I love the layout of this website! I like the bright colors! Anyway... I created a website layout/site in Photoshop CS 5. The website: www.thegarbagedump.net I saved it as a html & images.. The issue I am having is when you click one of the bottons I want it to open the html document and display it within that square area with the border around it. I know I probably need a frame to do this, however I dont know how to add a frame, and it appears photoshop saved it in tables.. Could you please review the html source, and tell me how/where to add a frame, and make the Home, About, Domains button appear within that square area with the border? Thank You, Justin Hey all (And thanks to all who helped in my last post).. http://wessell.net/david/project/newdesign/index.php I'd like to put a shadow around the left and the right, of the entire box (Including headers and footers).. But I'm at a tad of a loss. I'm finding a lot of information on shadows on pictures, using CSS.. I'd be interested in any suggestionons as to which way to go.. Thanks! David I am attempting to use google analytics on a website someone else developed. I am now in charge of updating this site but am having a problem finding the home page so I may add a google meta tag which would verify me as site owner. The site is at http://www.vandam.com However when I look at the directory on my ftp site and open the file labeled main.html, it looks nothing like the source code I see via the web. What is going on with this. Which file should I be looking for? Delete This Plz Hi, I am trying to figure out how to restrict users (guests) from browsing straight to a page within my site. I would like to ensure that all users must access the site via www.mysite.com Example: User- browses to www.mysite.com/pages/interestingpage.php (or .htm) I would prefer to force the "User" to click their manually via the links on my main page. I imagine some sort of session would be required for this. However I do not wish to require users to log in. I've heard that .htaccess or Apache's config file can be used but so far I have not been successful. I do have full access to the server/configuration. Hoping someone can assist. Examples would be most ideal. Thanks! Hi All, I am missing the "about us" button on the end of the main css menu www.rangeford.com.au. It is missing on every page which makes me believe css issue but have stared at both the html and css for days and cannot see any issue /* about */ a.nav-aboutR1, a.nav-aboutR3 { width:104px; background: url(../img/nav-about-R1.gif) no-repeat 0 0; } a:hover.nav-aboutR1 { background-position: 0 -33px; } a.nav-aboutR3 { background-position: 0 -66px; } /* span */ The background image is definately present and in the correct folder if any one could point me in the right direction i would be very grateful Cheers Mark I had a guy helping me fix my flyout menu and now my content that is under my div content is at the bottom of my page instead of at the bottom. I am not sure what to do to get it back to the top. Any help or ideas, I have been messing with this for hours. http://www.mesquitechristmas.com/index.html If you need me to post some code just let me know what code to post, or you can just view the source code.... -Thanks |
