HTML - Dreamweaver Site And Ie Problems!
I have read various post all over the net about site problems in IE but ok in Firefox, Safari etc. Well, I have that problem too and have failed to identify the problem within my site. I am a novice websiter - relying on DW to do most of it for me!
So any help would be appreciated. see www.nailseachoral.org.uk the navigation bar should not have a box around the words (present, future, gallery etc) and the home button should not have a purple box around it! Looks ok in Firefox and Safari. I am suspecting the image sizing code could be a factor? Any suggestions would be appreciated and thanks, Similar TutorialsI just finished with basic index.html page for my website. It will have 20 or more subpages - they will all use same design. I don't want manually change all the links on every page if one day I add menu link or something like that So any ideas how to do that automatically in Dreamweaver CS3? ---------- Hi everyone. A friend of mine designed his website in Dreamweaver. He wanted to change a lot of things about his website, but could not do it himself. For the past few weeks, he'd tell me what he wanted to change, and I changed it (via HTML, not Dreamweaver). He recently mentioned that he can no longer edit the files from Dreamweaver the way he used to. When he tries to add line breaks, all he gets are indentations. When he tries to format text, things don't always work right. It doesn't seem WYSIWYG anymore. Obviously, it must have something to do with my hand-coding vs. Dreamweaver's style of coding. But I don't even have a copy of Dreamweaver and I don't know where to start debugging. Does this issue stand out to anyone? Is anyone thinking, "Oh! I know exactly why that's happening?" If so, please let me know! Maybe it's the inline CSS I'm using? On the other hand, it looked like a lot of the issues concentrated around Dreamweaver's use of <dd>, <dt>, and <dl>. (I don't know whether it's Dreamweaver or my friend, but a lot of the layout uses these tags.) What can I do? The title says it all, my site just doesn't properly work in safari. heres the link www.royaltee-design.com help would really be appreciated thanks H'i, I am a new member but have several years' experience writing my own straightforward websites in HTML. About a year ago, I changed my old tower computer operating on XP for an HP Compaq 610 operating on Windows 7 and since then my problems have started. I have one web site on Freeservers (apparently unaffected by this problem), and three on Bravehost - these are now giving me serious problems after functioning well for 6 years in one case and 3-4 years in the remaining two sites. 1. When I open my website I find a string of unrelated coded script across the top of one of the pages and in many places where <p> exists normally in the HTML script, I have a "/p" appearing ON THE WEB PAGE! There is no evidence of either of these anomalies in the HTML script itself. 2. When I try to edit an error and go back on line to view my change, I find that in place of - perhaps - a one-letter corrected spelling, I have a string of totally unrelated letters and symbols. I have not checked every page of every site but it does seem to be a general problem. Are there known issues with Windows 7 in this area? I usually edit using Notepad and my preferred FTP is Leapware. I can offer a URL if required for viewing. Can anyone help? Thank you, Selwyn. Hi all! This is my first post at the html forums, and I'm quite new with coding in general, so please don't scream at me for being such a noob. I've been planning this site for quite a long while, and only just got into creating it within the last 2 months. It's called star-files.net. In case it's what your thinking, no, this is not a site about celebrities. The "star" is just a catchy phrase to go along with the rest of the domain name. Thus far, I've been creating it using a mixture of notepad (for the html coding that I actually have the knowledge to accomplish), and dreamweaver v8 (for the stuff I need help with or just don't have a clue about, like CSS and java). The forum won't let me include the html in this post, so I'll stick it in the next one. Just look at the source for now. If you have any suggestions for the source code, please let me know. I want to have this improved as much as possible. Anyway, the reason I'm posting this thread in the first place is that IE is giving me problems. Both v6 and v7, and I can easily guess that users with IE v5, 4, 3, 2, and probably 1 are not going to be happy with the way it looks. Straight and simple, the file "BGfade.png" (BG stands for backround) is stretching too far in width. I have it set to stretch to 100% width of the available space between the main table and and the side of the window. Instead, It stretches farther, causing a horizontal scroll bar to appear. Anyone know why this happens, and better, how to fix it? Lastly, I have another problem, but I know that fixing it will probably require CSS or java... It's the "transparent-pngs-in-ie" problem. BGfade.png is supposed to be transparent, to show the image being it, SFgrid.(jpg or png, but I can't remember which.). IE has difficulties with this, I know, so I'm trying to find a solution. If anyone has an idea, I'll be most grateful. Thanks! Ok. Im starting a site for the games/apps that iv'e been making. Here is what I have: Code: <HTML> <head> <title>Lithium Games Home</title> </head> <body> <body bgcolor="Silver"> </body> <p style="text-align: center;"> <img src="http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/3710/lglogoxf4.gif" border="0" alt="Lithium Games Logo"/> <br /> <img src= http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/703/linesmy2.gif /> <br /> <a href="http://imageshack.us"><img src="http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/7977/homebuttonun3.gif" border="0" alt="Lithium Games Home"/></a> <a href="http://imageshack.us"><img src="http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1559/gamesbuttondp4.gif" border="0" alt="Download Games"/></a> <a href="http://imageshack.us"><img src="http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/8550/appsbuttones9.gif" border="0" alt="Download Applications"/></a> <br /> <img src= http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/703/linesmy2.gif /> </p> </body> </HTML> Yaa. Heres what it makes: ... Questions: 1.How do I make the secont line image scoot up closer to the link/images? 2.Is there any way to make a line of text that automaticly jumps tp the botem center of the page? ... Thanks. Hi: I'm having problems with IE viewing my site. Unfortunately a lot of my viewers still use IE, but the way the design was made (Open Source design), the right side is in the first part of the file (<div id="content">) and the left side is afterwards (<div id="left">). It was working fine in IE for a while but then just suddenly stopped working after I was editing. Not sure what I did. Site demo: www.neptuneware.com Username: gametest Password: penguins When prompted. Could anyone please look at it in IE and tell me why it's not working. All HTML is in the source code (nothing's hidden), but here is the CSS file: Code: /*
** BLUE:SKY - main stylesheet
** This CSS file makes the webpage look pretty ;-)
**
** March 5, 2006 - (version 1.0)
**
** this is a part of the open source layout by
** Jonas John (www.jonasjohn.de) ~ made for gameindicator.com
** GAMEINDICATOR.COM using OPEN SOURCE WEB DESIGN (OSWD.ORG)
** GameIndicator thanks OSWD and Jonas John for our website design.

I have two similar links into my site that act very differently. One is mydomain.com/link1 and the other is mydomain.com/link2. There is a link1.htm file in my root and a link2.htm file in my root. When I enter "mydomain.com/link1" in my browser, I see the page. When I enter "mydomain.com/link2" in my browser, I get a 404. I do see link2 if I enter "mydomain.com/link2.htm" Is there a secret to making this type of link work? I don't remember doing anything special for link1. Maybe b/c it's Friday I can't get my brain around this one. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I dont know what the solution is but almost everry site that I create doesnt work in internet explorer! the links are wax-bar.ca and imagearts.ryerson.ca/nsahota It just shows a blank screen! I would really appreciate any help with this. Thanks in advance! Hey everyone, Working on a site for this church. The site is www.graceheritagechurch.com . I have a few problems that I want to touch up: 1)First, I have it on the home and about us pages where the td extends 100% so if there is scrolling, it is using the right scrollbar and not a scrollbar inside the i-frame. If you look at the Our Beliefs section, I can't say the same for that. What code do I need so the only scrolling is on the right side and it just extends until all the text is done? 2)Lastly, If you go to the home page and make the text size a good bit bigger, the horizontal scroll will appear in the iframe. I don't want this, and I know most people don't use font size that big, but the preacher I'm making this site for does and it's important that I can get it off there. Any help with these two basic questions is greatly appreciated. Help ASAP! Thanks, Kyle Hello. I have problem with creating a website for my Counter-Strike team. When I trying to write match info, and insert there a little flag, it always goes below map picture. It goes there everyway... with FrontPage, with PageBreeze, even with a WordPad, then i tried to edit HTML code manualy. Here is a screenshot: I realy need this problem to be solved. Sorry for my english. Hey guys, Im workign with a new client and she had a previous designer do her site. Problem is it was done in Frontpage has a referenced .dwt file and Im trying to edit this. I generally work with puremarkup but have dreamweaver to get an instant visual change as I do this. My problem is as i'm trying to change stuff its not allowing me to do this. Also in the directory there are tons of _vti directories. There is a form on her site which was done in ASP so in general I'm slightly confused as to the best way to edit her site. I even just copied the code and pasted it into a new window and its giving me hangups about this. I think the way Frontpage generated the code is wonky. The site URL is alongcamemary.biz Can you guys make some suggestions on the best way to approach this. Thanks, Richard When you are using dream weaver for a website, do you have to install it onto the server I was going to use it because I think it's a nice layout for HTML coding. can you please give a site or link where can I download dreamweaver? I have heard is good to build web pages and learn html. Thanks! In the site: www.eldon.com see those little dotted lines in the page? I couldn't figure out how they did this to save my life... Thanks... I have a site and the spry menu bar won't go all the way across the screen. anyone know why? I'm starting a new website on Dreamweaver. Can't remember how I did this the first time: I need some jpg images to go into my images folder. I created a folder for my website on my hard disk (local root folder)...and I defined my site on Dreamweaver, with an image folder....but when I try to add images to the folder, it won't accept them on Dreamweaver. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? Hello every1, I'm using adobe cs3 now, but i seem to be having a little bit of a problem. When i come to type in the html code: <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> wmode="transparent" The code does not seem to work now. What is the new code that i will need to enter? Or do you have to do something in flash? Thanks for the info? |
