HTML - Create Template?
Hi All,
I'm a co-founder of an organization by the name of CLEAN Education, I am responsible for the web site because I'm pretty tech savvy. The site is he www.cleaneducation.org I'm currently cleaning the website to try to make it much more functional for me to update and make it consistent on multiple browsers. Question: How can I make a template? Currently when I want to alter part of the non individual page specific parts (such as the right column that is for recent news) I have to go through each and every page to alter it. Can I make a a template that has everything other than the center white part that is page specific and then somehow call on the content for the page specific part for each page? Altering 10-15 pages on a weekly basis is becoming tedious. Thanks all Similar Tutorialshere is the template. it's coded badly since I used photoshop and dreamweaver since I dont really know how to code. the only thing I need to do is add a div tag in the body thats white and another div tag for the footer with that color. ive been messing with it but i cant get it. i end up messing the whole template up. could someone please help me with those 2 spots please? Hey there. I have a blog. its called reign of uncertainty, and the url is www.confusedforeternity.blogspot.com i am using a zigmag remedy template. i am trying to put links in the bar, where it says "home, about me, art....". but the template automatically prefixes the blog url before the link. if i put www.deviantart.com in the xml code, it automatically becomes http://www.confusedforeternity.blogs...deviantart.com. i am not the good at coding and i dont know why its happening. the xml template is available he http://www.mediafire.com/?tz3mzcgntmt A solution will be appreciated. Hey everyone, First of all, I don't know any HTML, I'll be following a tutorial later this week to learn it, yet I decided to give website lay-outs, a go. Here's what I got so far. Now my questions are, do I have to add the text on there now? Or will I add it with HTML later on? And my other question is, how exactly does the slice tool work? Do I just have to slice it all in pieces? Or do I have to add the URL to it too? (If you double-click a slice you can enter a URL, how can I know the URL if I don't even have a site yet?) Thanks a lot! How would you add a template to your site with HTML. This concept is getting very annoying and I have started arguing with someone on this subject. Please if you know how to do this please don't hesitate to tell me. Thanks in advance!! -Levi Hi, this may not be even a HTML question but... I was wondering if there was a way to create some kind of website template, so if I wanted to add a banner or something to a page I don't have to go into each individual html file and put it in. Something like a css that everything references to and making a change in that changes all. THX. Hi guys.I have very little html experience so I decided to work from a template. Problem is, I didn't even know how to add some of the simple stuff. I was able to figure out how to add: a) the background b) the main header(banner) and c) a few normal pictures I have no idea however how to add the: sidebar, menubar (where about us, etc is), or the footer. I don't know where the programming for them starts or how to add so that the show up. In the following post I'll add my website name and code: I have an older template that has a stylesheet and iframes.html I am wanting to put this into it and just havent had any luck. <!-- MLCALC BEGIN --> <script type="text/javascript"><!-- mlcalc_default_calculator = 'loan'; mlcalc_currency_code = 'usd'; mlcalc_amortization = 'year_nc'; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mlcalc.com/jquery.js"></script><div style="font-weight:normal;font-size:9px;font-family:Tahoma;padding:0;margin:0;border:0;background:transparent;color:#E5E5E5;width:300px;text-align:right;padding-right:10px;" id="mlcalcWidgetHolder"><script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mlcalc.com/widget-wide.js"></script>Powered by <a href="http://www.mlcalc.com/" style="color:#E5E5E5;text-decoration:none">Mortgage Calculator</a></div> <!-- MLCALC END --> I have been able to muddle it into the page but get script error. I am sure I need to provide more information. The tables on the page are just to confusing for me to work this in. Just thought I would start off with the problem. Wasnt sure what forum to put this in either thanks in advance for any input. Well okay it's me again. I'm making another template. How do I get this: Image To look like this: Image And then let me add text? Codes: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Apateezer - Home</title> <link rel=stylesheet href="style.css" type="text/css" media=screen> </head> <body> <div id="page"> <div id="Header"> </div> <div id="linkbar"> <div id="page"> <p>test</p> </div> <div id="footer"> <p>Copyright (c) 2008 Apateezer.com <br/> All Rights Reserved.</p> </div> </div> </body> </html> Code: body { background-color:#000000; margin:0; padding:0; text-align:center; font-family:Trebuchet MS Bold; font-size:16px; color:#ffffff; } #page { width:960px; margin:auto; padding:auto; background-image:url(images/page.png); text-align:center; } #header { width:780px; height:123px; background-image:url(images/header.png); clear:both; } #linkbar { width:780px; height:66px; background-image:url(images/linkbar.png); clear:both; } #footer { width:780px; height:51px; background-image:url(images/footer.png); clear:both; } PLease help. HI Guys, I am making a template using Web 2.0. Everything was alright but when I opened the html files in Dreamweaver again for work. One div in the middle it showed white space. When I viewed it in firefox, it viewed completely and there was no white space. The text was there , everything was there. I dont get it, where did the white space came from. Also, if I view the code view, that specific div is highlighted with yellow color. Also the yellow highlighted div is showing in the design view. I am attaching the screenshots. Kindly help with this Regards, a2usmani I'm trying to make a template for e-bay using Dreamweaver. When I use CSS, it applies everything to the whole auction, so even the e-bay things have the font as orange. I went in and changed everything to html and things look better, but I'm having a problem with the border around my images. I would like it to be the color in the background instead of black. Here is a screenshot of what I am talking about. http://s132.photobucket.com/albums/q...screenshot.jpg Here is the code I currently have: <img src="http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q14/littlestinkerstore/SSTemplate/ssimagej.jpg" width="288" height="288" border="9"></p> <p align="center"> </p> <p align="center"><img src="http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q14/littlestinkerstore/SSTemplate/ssdescriptionj.jpg" width="450" height="225" border="2"></p> What I would REALLY like is a border around the image that is another image, a pattern used in the background, but I will be happy with a color that matches!! Thanks! Hi, total newbie to website design and I need help in getting rid of a template. I think for now all i want is to go to cPanel, then right to a HTML editor, but every choice seems to leave me with some sort of forced template. I just switched from Sitebuilder to RVsitebuilder and was a little happier with the 'build your own' template... but still there is a template. I want to learn to design my own header, not have some preset thing.... Should I just keep messing with different builders? Try wordpress? (it's Not like i can ruin anything, there is no content up yet to worry about overwriting) Hoping someone feels like answering this tonight I will start off by saying that I do not know HTML, but I am able to mess around with stuff already there to get my desired results fairly often. I am trying to set up a blog template for Blogger, and I am have trouble with the sidebar. A large space appears that pushes down all the widgets under my Links list to the bottom of the posts in the main area of the page. In the HTML of the template, I found this code which I assume is the problem: <!-- spacer for skins that want sidebar and main to be the same height--> <div class='clear'> </div> </div> <!-- end content-wrapper --> Everything I do to that code either has no noticable affect or brings up an error when I try to preview the changes. Does anyone know what I should change? Here's a link to my blog so you can see the problem. It's in the sidebar on the right. http://hobsonsbuffet.blogspot.com Can someone please recommend to me a good site(s) where I can get free HTML templates for websites? i have absolutely no room on my comuter, not even enought to download a template and i just need the template code and then you can delete it, so can someone just download it and then give me the .html code? here is the template, thanks in advance! http://www.tunedstudios.com/comments/template/0/10/ I am creating a blog, and I went on a blog skin website and downloaded a couple of templates. i signed up to start my blog on blogspot.com. anyway, when i tried to customize and upload my downloaded templates, it had some errors. i'll try to give anyone the html codes...i can't make an attachment with the files on the first template i got the following error: "Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed.
