HTML - How Do I Create An Index On A Page?
I'm not sure what to call it, so I'll call it an index.
I want the top of my page to have the links A B C D E F G .... and so on, and I want those to link to other letters further down on the page. I'm making a directory for music reviews I have done. So basically, if you click on 'G' you will be scrolled down to the index of bands with names starting with G. How is this done? Similar TutorialsI think there is a simple fix for this...but I can't think of it. My client has an existing site (not very well designed and no templates) with hundreds of static pages. She wants me to create a new home (index.htm) page that is just a simple landing page where people can choose to enter her website OR visit the store to purchase products. Simple enough...but, now all of the 100's of static pages have the link Home=index.htm on them. I want people to type in the URL: www.mysite.com (for example) and land on the new page to choose to go to the site to learn about her and her music OR go to the store to shop. Once they are in the site, however, and hit the home link, I don't want them to go 'all the way back out' to the new landing page. I want them to go back to the 'old' index.htm page (or her current home page), without having to change the index.htm links on those 100's of pages. Is there an easy fix for this, using a naming convention for the home page? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am a bit stumped on this one. Hey everyone. Wanted your opinions and knowledge on something. I have a friend who is setting up a splash page for her site. However the way her hosting company has things set up she will need to rename her current home page from index.html to something else, and make the splash page the new index.html. She's under the impression that if her current home page is renamed to something other than index it will lose significant value in her website's ranking. I've never heard of that. Her meta tags will be kept intact, and the splash page will have meta tags, and will link to both the home page and sitemap so I don't think search engines will have any problem spidering her site. And I don't really think it will affect her ranking. What do you all think? Am I wrong? Im in the middle of creating a forum which has an "front page". I just cant get it to look right, and was wondering if anyone here can see where i am going wrong? http://newcarnews.slarti3.myfreeforum.org/index.html The image below is how i want it to look. The code i have for the index.html page is Code: <link rel="stylesheet" href="./styles/newcarnews.myfreeforum.org1/theme/stylesheet.css" type="text/css" /> <script type="text/javascript"> <div id="f_11"> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- tmp = 'f_11'; if(GetCookie(tmp) == '2') { ShowHide('f_11', 'f_11_h', 'f_11'); } //--> </script> <div><div class="c-h-l"><div class="c-h-r"><div class="c-h-c"><img style="padding-top:0px;padding-right:8px;float:left;cursor:pointer;" src="" onclick="javascript:ShowHide('f_11','f_11_h','f_11');" alt="" /><div class="c-h-title"><h4><a class="c-h-link" href="./viewforum.php?f=11">New Car News</a></h4></div></div></div></div> <table class="tablebg" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tr> <th width="50" cellpadding="0" align= "left" valign="top"> News </th> </tr> <script language="JavaScript" src="http://feeds.theblogresource.com/feed2js.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Frss.feedsportal.com%2Ffeed%2Fnewcarnet%2Fnews&chan=y&num=3&targ=y&html=a" type="text/javascript"></script> <noscript> <a href="http://feeds.theblogresource.com/feed2js.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Frss.feedsportal.com%2Ffeed%2Fnewcarnet%2Fnews&chan=y&num=3&targ=y&html=y">View RSS feed</a> </noscript> <tr> I have copied bits of the code from various places on my forum but i cant seem to get it right.

I recently updates some things on a very basic page for my wife who is a hair stylist. For whatever reason, the index page will not display in IE or Chrome, but will just fine in Firefox. I've checked everything and just can't find what is causing the issue. http://amyappletonhairdesign.com These pages on the same site display fine if you need a point of reference: http://amyappletonhairdesign.com/services.html http://amyappletonhairdesign.com/contact.html Thank you! Hi, I'm a newbie, and have taught myself from books and the web, so please be patient with me! I have noticed these symbols appear at the bottom left of my index page: My site is http://www.artish.com.au. It doesn't appear when I check the page before uploading it. It only seems to appear in IE (firefox doesn't show it). Just wondering what it is, and how to get rid of it? Thanks in advance for any help offered... Leticia My current web site is at "CAVAglass.com" I created "http://www.cavaglass.com/gallery/1.GORMENGHAST.htm" and want it to be my new Index Page. All the links work fine here. When I rename "http://www.cavaglass.com/gallery/1.GORMENGHAST.htm" as "index.htm", and open my "CAVAglass.com" website this home page looks fine, but no links work. Any suggestions? Best, Joseph When I enter the URL for my website, it does not direct to index.htm (the homepage). It shows what appears to be the same page as the index, but it does not show up in the address bar. I have made edits to the index page and they are not reflected in the homepage. Why is this, and how can I change it? I don't know how it got this way. mikebradleyphoto.com guys, Im hoping someone can help me out. i am a flash designer and my flash movie opens in a 1024 x 680 fixed window but my index page is html ( a page with a picture and an "enter here" button and im trying to get this jpg to fill the full horizontal width of the screen in all resolutions. it looks fine @ 1024 x 768 but of you go higher, obviously you cant make the image wider or it will distort so i think the layout will have to be sectional ( tables perhaps or divs breaking the image into sections or something). i think the jpg has to be chopped up. if you see the picture, you will get the idea. i want it to fill the width of the screen regardless of screen resolution. im not sure what to do, i need so serious design help. I know that some of you can prob do this in 5 minutes but im trying to learn. the problem is that my site is complete but i cant launch until my index page is done. i dont know what to do. im new to html but am a flash programmer. i just want a index page to launch my site but have it look ok regardless of screen resolution / size. can someone take a look at this jpg and perhaps show me what to do so that my picture will always be to the far left and the enter button / box it is in will stay to the right. I can really use some help. i am attaching my image and also an example url that shows a site where the intro page does this. the image always stays to the left and everything keeps proper postion. i really can use some helpsample_&_image.zip for an example... I would like to create a link or have a button called dropdown on a page, and once clicked, I would like it to drop down and give a description or show a paragraph or something... I don't want it to show up in another page once I click the link, just show up on the same page, but droped down directly under the link... Does anyone have an Idea what I mean? and how to do this... an easy way to accomplish this? or some nice tutorials? Thanks a lot... I have wrote this <html> <body> <script type="text/javascript"> var w=window.open(); w.document.open(); w.document.write("FirstLine<br>SecondLine<br>"); w.document.close(); </script> </body> </html> This simply creates anew window and outputs text onto it... What I want is for the specified text, to be outputed to a new html file For instance, OutPut1.html or OutPut2.html and so on. And for clarification, I do not want to manually create each new file for html to write to. I want the main html to create these new files Thank you all in Advance for all help given Hey all, Been searching the web for an answer but haven't found anything near! Basically i have a list of pages on a specific web page (list.html) These links then take you to their respective 'detail' pages (separate html files) which essentially contain a single image file within a "content" div. What i want to do is create a "Favourite" button which, when clicked, will add the 'detail' page's href to another list on a separate html page (say, "favourites.html"), which i can the link to from the homepage. How do i do this?? Is there a way of using local storage for this function? (please bear in mind i might need a very simple explanation as I'm by no means familiar with using javascript in detail!! Thanks all att_blue How do I create an entry page that only shows to 1st time visitors, I am creating a forum and would like to have a welcome page that shows when someone 1st visits the site, but after they have entered and registered they no longer see this page if cookies are enabled. Is this possible? I have inherited the responsibility of maintaining our company website. Unfortunately my experience is pretty limited. I have been tasked with adding a Terms of Conditions/Acceptance to the site. The user would need to check some sort of "I Agree" before being allowed to reach or download information from our down load page. I have found one way which would be to create a new page that would then redirect the user to the Download page but I would have to track down every link to the download page, over 1500 pages. Is there a way I can just put some piece of code on the page itself? Thank you, Mike All, I hope I'm in the right forum. I had already downloaded some very simple example of creating web page tabs some time ago, and now CANNOT find it anywhere for the life of me. I don't remember exactly what code language it was, and I don't think it was java. Not even vbscribt /asp. No controls either. I think it was HTML (if possible), but basically it showed Tab1, Tab2, Tab3, with data that said "this is the first tab", "this is the second", etc... I really need to use this example now, but have lost the original, and no example on the internet quite matches it. Can someone provide a very simple method for creating tabs, or relevant link? Thank you so much! Regards, asp_jr I want to create news items in Div tags (just like a table structure) on an HTML page having 7 rows and 3 equal columns. Would be obliged if you can help me sort this simple question. Hi, I have 6 users who need to access a roster on the website. only they are to view the roster can I use a flat file with their usernames and a passwords? Hi, I have a problem creating a Master page in dreamweaver, can anyone help me? I want to change my web layout and affect the rest of the pages. Regards Steve Hello! I'm kinda stuck trying to get this idea on HTML for my web site: www.luzvenidera.com/webnueva/indexinframe.htm This is the thing: I want the content to appear in the main rectangle, and have it resize automatically to the content. I have been able to do this with an inframe and using a specific script. Next to the content there are cells with an image that should go on the top of each cell and a background tiled image that continues the pattern. At least on my computer, the current code works in IE7, but in FF3 the image inside the side cells ends up showing in the middle instead of the top. I have also read that using inframe isn't really a good idea for the main content section of the page, for a variety of reasons including that it's not search engine friendly, so I'm trying to figure out an alternative.. I'm stuck here. If I make an entire frame beneath the navigation bar and just add the content there then the scroll bar would only show up for that frame, that is, beneath the navigation bar. I want the whole page to have the scroll bar, I don't want the header and navigation bar to stay in place while the rest of the content is scrolled as the background in the sides would break. My questions would be: what should I do to make it so I have the content in a frame, having it expand so the content would fit, without screwing up the side bars and making the whole page scrollable to read the content? I really don't want to make an instance of the whole page tailored to each section's content. I'm also getting ActiveX warnings in IE that prevent the inframe to show up unless it's manually permitted.. if I'm forced to use inframe, is there any way to prevent this? I hope I'm being clear, and would really appreciate any advice! I'm new to most of this stuff, and I got a big headache trying to figure this one out! Thanks in advance! |
