HTML - Date Dependent Formatting
I have a need to be able to compare today's date against a date and if the date is less than today's date then grey the background or text in a row of a table, otherwise leave the row with a white background or black text. It's basically a lazy webmaster's solution to updating the format of a page without having to manually update everytime and event passes. An examle would be as follows:
Row 1 January 5, 2009 7:00 Regular Meeting Row 2 February 3, 2009 7:00 Regular Meeting Row 3 February 20, 2009 6:30 Wine and Cheeze Party at Bill's House For each row I would compare the date (hardcoded not as a variable) against today's date. If today is February 15, 2009, The text on the first two rows would be grey and the text on the third row would be black as shown above. Thanks for any assistance. Mike Similar TutorialsHi there I am an HTML novice that can usually find the answers after some google time, not this time though. I've been searching the web for quite some time to get this done, hopefully one of you can help me out. If so, I will gladly give you credit when my little digital art project is done. Here's what I am trying to do (simplified): - I have image files (.JPGs) named 1200.jpg, 1201.jpg, 1202.jpg, 1203.jpg, 1204.jpg, etc. Each one representing a minute in the day. - Is it possibly to have a browser display 1201.jpg at 12:01, then display 1202.jpg at 12:02 and so on? Reading from the system clock. Hopefully this makes sense. Thanks for your time and, um, keep on HTML-ing. Dorron M email@dorronm.com So, still rather new to writing HTML. I'm looking to put either a text field or drop down box onto the page dependent on a previously defined variable. How do I go about doing that?

Thanks, Hey there just starting to make a new site, and just kinda slowly making pages and trying to get the formatting and looks down first. anyways here is my site: http://uberwalla.com and you may notice depending on the resolution the footer is not at the very bottom its kinda floating high with a gray bottom under it. I am just wondering how i can make it so that no matter what resolution and no matter what browser, that it'll automatically make the footer the very bottom (touching the status bar or past it have to scroll down) no matter the size of the page. thanks in advance, uberwalla Hi everyone.. I;ve just launch my new webiste but IE seems to have messed up some of the formatting. Is there an eastyfix/tool to remedy this? All other browsers see fine. I have tested in Browsershots... Thanks I am a total newbie to this and so I have no idea what is going on. I downloaded a template from a wesite I forget which, but it looks great in IE, and Safari, however in Firefox, or Opera it is all screwed up. The site is www.ottersupport.com would somebody mind look at the code and let me know what i need to fix ? Thanks Alright since you all were so much help with my last question, here's another. if you look at my website ottersupport.com, you will see that the first page is using a template. I downloaded this and it is working/looks correct on this page but if you click the links for "Rates" and " terms" the templates styles are not on the left side like they are on the first page. I don't see any problems with the code, however I really don't know what I am doing. Thanks in advance, James --Come on is there seriously nobody that can answer this ? If I have this in the wrong area let me know or move it. Hi there, HTML noob here trying to edit existing pages in our student information system.

When i preview the page in firefox it has not problems in design layout of the page but when i view it in IE it breaks the design format and is messed up.

Any reason or suggestion as to why it would do this? I would really appreciate any help on this, Thanks, Greetings All, Some background: I'm as green as grass when it comes to html and website design, but that still did not stop me from buying a small website (business) from a desginer on ebay. It did well with some advertising, but recently I have had to change my payment processor because paypal froze my account for something that they have yet to explain to me (apparantly this is common with paypal) In any event, I managed to add the new payment processor to my website, but in the process of doing so, I did something to this page that made it larger and the pics are not in allignment any longer. There are gaps and it looks just plain ugly and unprofessional See for yourself: 1. The website as it should be: http://get-your-ride.com 2. The malfunctioning page: http://get-your-ride.com/join.html Can anyone walk me through on how to fix this? Is there a magic button to push? Or would you prefer I copy and paste the script for your expert eyes,since at this time html is more or less mumbo jumbo to me. Hi Team, I'm having problems formatting images in HTML. Here is my site: http://ledtvprices.org.uk/ I would like to "left align" the merchant logo buttons at the top so that they all sit evenly above the H1 Tag and start from the left to the right, rather than the middle of the page. I'd also like to left align all the tv images and space them all out evenly. How do I achieve this in HTML? Thanks. Sunil. I was wondering if anyone could help me. I have two DIVs. One is 43px high and 100% width. The second I want to be 100% high - 43 px. Is there a way to do this with CSS without resorting to Javascript? Many thanks. Hello, Here is the site I am having difficulty with. http://mysite.verizon.net/ekafrawy/Modern/index.html If you view this page in FF, the formatting is fine, but when you view it in IE, the spacing on the left nav bar is not right. Anyone have some tips on how to correct this? Thanks, Eric Hi, I have an unusual problem. I am linking pages for my website, and I am sure that I have the formatting correct, but for some reason, when I reference my page (which is in a different directory) from a page within my root web folder, the formatting is gone. I am currently using simple html. My reference is as follows from my page within the root directory: <a href="/directory/directory/page.html">Text</a> The page works perfectly fine when it is in the root directory, but as soon as I move it to the other directory "/directory/directory" the background color and header formatting are gone. I still have my tables in place, but everything else is messed up. Ideas? Help? Hello I am hopeless with html.
