HTML - Pages Outside Of Index Wont Reference Files
OK it said be specific so here it is. I am a first time html'er infact I am just now in an html/css class, the downside is my honors organization wanted a website this week. I was able to build something novice like @ http://www.asu-bap.com what I noticed is when I use images or a css stylesheet on the index page everything works grandiose. However, when I reference the same style sheet on other pages such as join.html or announcements.html it would not use the style sheet. I got really irritated and just embedded the css into each page individually. Think that my code was just that bad and i had nowhere to go for help.
Then... I tried to do an image on my calendar.html, and i had the same issue... I even tried (as I had with the css file) to create a brand new directory called calendar and putting the img in there. To no avail, it still would not pull up the image. I am like 90% sure my code is right for the image so then I found this website and decided to try to get help here. Here is my code for the calendar (its a word doc converted I just added links and img), I have everything uploaded to root directory. Please help. And if you fix what could have been my css referencing issue, I wills end you cookies! Code: <STYLE TYPE="text/css" MEDIA=screen> <!-- body { padding-left: 11em;} ul.navbar { list-style-type: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; position: absolute; top: 2em; left: 1em; width: 9em } ul.navbar li { background: white; margin: 0.5em 0; padding: 0.3em; } ul.navbar a { text-decoration: none } a:link { color: blue } a:visited { color: purple } address { margin-top: 1em; padding-top: 1em; border-top: thin dotted } --> </STYLE> <!-- Site navigation menu --> <div class="style1"> <ul class="navbar"> <li><a href="http://www.asu-bap.com/">Home</a> <li><a href="http://www.asu-bap.com/forums/">Forums</a> <li><a href="http://www.asu-bap.com/announcements.html/">Announcements</a> <li><a href="http://www.asu-bap.com/join.html/">How to Join Beta Alpha Psi</a> <li><a href="http://www.asu-bap.com/calendar.html/">Calendar of Events</a> </ul> <img src="1_BAP_color.jpeg" /> Similar TutorialsI have my main website called index.html, but since i've added php into the code, i've renamed it to index.php. But I also have a forum, which includes another index.php. I'm wanting to have my index.php page to be the page that people see when they come to my website. Is there anyway that it could happen? I use a program (Guardian) to send me notifications when an error occurs on my site (404, 403 etc.) These notices contain the URL causing the error and the referring URL. Lately I have been getting numerous notifications with URLs to directories without index files (On a side note, these URLs also contain within them, urls to other sites. I assume this is some spammer technique and I am not too concerned about this in this post but if someone can shed some light on how/why they (the spammers) do this I would appreciate it.) My purpose in posting here is to find out about the use of index files in directories. I have read that this is a good idea, but I have yet to hear why except that in case someone navigates to the URL of the directory rather than the actual page URL, then they will not get a 403 error message, but this seems like a rather weak reason to me. Is there another reason? SEO reason? Technical reason? If I find good reason to do this, is it enough to just put a blank index file in each directory? If so why? What purpose does it serve (aside from thwarting the spammers doing what I described above.) Thanks in advance for your help. Hope I am in the right area. I just joined. I did search for display pdf files in web pages and did not see a clear response. I would like a simple script to display a pdf file. I did try <A href="data.pdf">Print Data list</A> and does not work. Please help. Hello, I have the page "index.html" in my root folder, as well as another "index.html" page in a subdirectory. I feel like a moron for not being able to figure this out on my own, but here goes: How do I create a link from my subdirectory index.html page to the one in my root folder? Any help is much appreciated. Hello, I'm trying to create a little page that auto updates itself whenever new files are added. The system is layered such that I have the top level index.html file, then in the same directory, I can add new folders that contain other index.html files. What I want to do is have the top level index.html file pick up every sub directory, grab the name from the directory, and then create a link to that directory's index.html file and then display it in the top level index.html file. So what I have right now is this: HTML Code: <body> <a href="myFirstDirectory/index.html">myFirstDirectory.html</a> </body> There is other stuff, but this is the part I need help with. As you can see, I also want the name that is displayed to be the same name as the directory. I do not know how to automate this if I have other folders in there like directory2, directory3, etc. Can anyone show me an example of how to do this or walk me through it? Thanks in advance. I am still new to the web page world, but the website I originally created (in japanese) was passed on to a programmer. He did a lot of "upgrades" to the site so he says, but he left. Now I am in charge again of re-modeling the site. The problem is I am trying to figure out why there are so many dead links. I have looked up and down the server, but can't find anything. Ok before I confuse anyone else here is what I am talking about. For example this page that I originally made : Code: http://www.discoveryfirm.com/tokushu/index.html cannot be found but if I take of the end: http://www.discoveryfirm.com/tokushu/ the page is there. Now I am trying to fix a lot of dead links, but I cannot figure out what the programmer did to the site. I am still new to all the high-tech features in the web world. Could somebody please explain. I finally figured out how to add text to my index and now I have another question. In my website template There is Heading 1 and a Heading 2 so my question is how do I delete any sections or headings that I don't need to make it go away on my home page. There is so much and I don't think I need all of it..... Thanks in advance Hi, I want to use a text link in order add a certain page in my website, to the favorites list. But I want it to be added with a reference, so later on I will be able to see ( with the statistics program of my site) , how many times people entered This page through their favorites list. Right now I use this code, which does the job but without the reference: <p><u><span style="CURSOR: hand; COLOR: blue" onclick="window.external.AddFavorite(location.href, document.title);">Add to favorites </span></u></p> For example: If the page is http://www.help.com/me_please.html I would like the url that is added to the favorites list to be: http://www.help.com/me_please.html&ref=favorites Any help would be most appreciated Thanx Niv is it possible to link html code from a seperate external html file. example, the footer and header is always the same and the content changes. can i create a header.html and a footer.html and have my content pages link to the header.html and footer.html. so if i ever need to update the header or footer, i have to do it once. I tried to look on the net but don't know what key words to look under. thanks., Hi dudes, I am having a value in the hidden field of the form and i need to use the value of the hidden field as the source for the anchor tag href. How could this be possible. Suggest me a solution as quick as possible. Thanks & regards, Muthuselvan.N The tutorials on this site are geared toward the newcomer. However, the reference guide provides useful information that would be useful to anyone. http://www.halshtmlschool.com/ i want to show '<' on my web page, but when I type in '<' i get '<' and when I use '<code><</code>' or <pre><</pre> -- i still get '<' on the webpage. the only way that i can display '<' is to use '&lt; is there another way So here's the sitch: Our website, Watershedpdx.com, works from its outside IP address UNLESS you are inside our local area network. It's a Comcast issue, and their router seems unable to rout internal requests for our own IP from the internal and around to the router. I know I could modify the .hosts file on every computer and such, but for now, I've opted for a slightly different solution: If I'm inside the building, I check our own website with it's local IP: http://10.1.10.197 Now, the issue comes up because I'm streaming video to the web at http://10.1.10.197:8079 and http://10.1.10.197:8078 Is there a way to reference this in the code without the IP address? For this to be visible to the internet, I link it in the code as http://watershedpdx.com:8078 - but then the computers in the building can't see it. Is there a reference like http://..:8078 that would work? All the books I've seen are targeted at either newbies, experienced, or expert users. All I want is a reference that shows all the tags and all the formatting options. For example: Table <table></table> Table options <table style class height width border colspacing padding> Table row <tr></tr> Table row options <tr ..... > Table data <td></td> Table data options <td ..... > See? For every avaliable tag. I just need a reference, not code, nor how to's. Just a reference to the tags and parms they can take. If you know of a book title that covers this, please indicate. Thanks! This will be hard for me to explain so I will add an image: http://img75.imageshack.us/my.php?image=examplexu6.gif How do I go about loading a page within a page. For example, in the pic, if you clicked Cost it would load a page within the loading area without taking off to another location. I seen it on a site before, i remember the links were something like "/?p=cost" or something like that. And the page appeared to not navigate elsewhere, the cost page was just loaded within the page i was on. hope that makes sense, if so any examples on this? is it hard to do? messy? safe with most browsers? thanks Well i am creating a website for a college assignment and i need some help please. I want a div (or anything else that might work) to go in the space shown in the pic. I have tryed aligning a div right but it doesnt go into the gap i want it to, also normal text wont go there eithe. Here's my code: Code: <div align="center" style="background-color:#4D4D4D;width:1000px;height:30px;border:1px solid #00137F;filter:progid:DXImageTransform. Microsoft.Glow(color=#00137F)"> I can't get the DIV to change size. I know I haven't put 'Width="" height="" ' but that doesn't work. It's strange because usually I would've thought that would work. please bear with me. i had been out of touch with web design for a while. well, a long while actually. last time i designed a website css wasn't the standards. ================================================== have a look at the site below: http://amarssadal.com/pp/ now above the video, between the video and the frame outlining it you can see a gap. now i cant for the love of god figure out what the hell went wrong there. ny ideas. ny suggestions. what could be wrong? ================================================== also. to manage this website and one other website, i want to give the client the freedom to add and remove and make changes to the content. now as i understand there are CMS to do just that. but how do i apply them. could you help me or guide me to a very layman's tutorial or something on CMS.

If you want me to post my CSS or attach a copy of my website, just say so Thanks again, Chris This problem is pretty self explanatory, please have a look here. It shows a slideshow that is almost working, but the moment i add the images they just stack up... not hidden, and not animated. I think ive missed out on something. No idea where to pinpoint it.. thank u for looking into this. |
