HTML - Website Updates - Little Problem
Similar TutorialsI had this problem before with the Firefox coding incompatibility.. On my website, I post updates for all of the changes I make about each month. I tried to post an update today and I noticed that it wasn't showing up in Firefox. I brought my page up on Internet Explorer and it shows up just fine. Point and case, there's something wonky with my coding again that is angering Firefox and its refusing to show my updates. Here's the code. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> <title>Natalie's Cosplay</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" charset="utf-8" /> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <h1></h1> <div id="head-1" style="WIDTH: 401px; HEIGHT: 386px"></div> <div id="nav"> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm//index.htm"><font size="1">HOME</font></a></li> <li><font color="#000000" size="1"><a href="http://www.geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm/Aboutme.html">ABOUT ME</font></a></li> <li><font color="#000000" size="1"><a href="http://www.geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm/completed.html">COMPLETED COSTUMES</font></a></li> <li><a href="http://www.geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm/inprogress.html"><font color="#000000" size="1">IN</font><font color="#000000" size=1>-PROGRESS COSTUMES</a></font> </li> <li><font color="#000000" size="1"><a href="http://www.ultraguest.com/view/1180720057">GUESTBOOK</font></a></li> <li><font color="#000000" size="1"><a href="http://www.geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm/links.html">RECOMMENDED SITES</font></a></li> <li class="last"><a href="MAILTO:Chinesefightinyo@aol.com"><font color="#000000" size="1">CONTACT ME</font></a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="body-left"> <h2><font color="#000000"><em><font color=#000000>G</font></em>al</font>lery</h2><br> Newest Costume: Songmage Rikku! <div id="gallery"> <div class="gal" id="gzero"><a href="http://geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm/songmage.html"><img height="163" alt="Latest Costume: Songmage Rikku from Final Fantasy X-2/Original Artist Concept" src="bigsong.jpg" width="221" ></a></div> <div class="gal" id="gone"><img height="41" src="song1.jpg" width =57 ></a></div> <div class="gal" id="gtwo"><img height="41" src="song2.jpg" width =57 ></a></div> <div class="gal" id="gthree"><img height="41" src="song3.jpg" width =57 ></a></div> <div class="clear"></div> </div> <table width="133" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" align="center"><tr><td align="middle"><a href="http://www.website-hit-counters.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.website-hit-counters.com/cgi-bin/image.pl?URL=8421-4416" alt="free website hit counters service" border="0" ></a></td></tr><tr><td align="middle"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 9px; COLOR: #24092c; FONT-FAMILY: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; TEXT-DECORATION: none">Get a <a href="http://www.website-hit-counters.com" target="_blank" style="FONT-SIZE: 9px; COLOR: #444444; FONT-FAMILY: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; TEXT-DECORATION: none" title="free website hit counter">free website hit counter</a> .</font></td></tr></table> </div> <div id="body-right"> <h2 align="left"><font color=#000000>W</font>elcome!</h2> <p align="center"> <br><font color="#000000" size="1">Please don't use any of my photos without asking!

Are they necessary? I'm afraid that if I delete a few of them where I don't think they are needed I'll have some more problems. ugh. how can i create a script/code to allow users to enter there email adress and that email address be saved to my yahoo adress book? I was wondering if it's possible to automatically copy a file to a website from another site. The reason I ask, is the company I work for wishes to show the newsletters from their partner company but doesn't want to update their website after each letter. So, I know I can create a link to their site rather easily, but I'm wondering if it's possible to actually copy the files that are stored in .pdf format. Hi everyone, I have a website that I update a lot. Most browsers though, remember the contents of the page for fast viewing next time. My problem is that there are a lot of people who go to my site, and think there is nothing new, becasuse they are really seeing the unupdated version of the site... and they don't refresh. I know about the auto-refresh HTML code... but I don't think that would be the right way to go here. Does anyone know of anything else I could do? Thanks. Hi there, Sorry if this is the wrong forum but I wasn't really sure where else to put it. Basically, I've been making an awful lot of websites lately for final year art students as a portfolio of their work. The majority of them want something extremely simple, typically with a collection of thumbnails linking to larger versions of work, a page of links, an about page etc.. The issue is, unless they're proficient with HTML and FTP, they can't update them that easily by themselves. So, on a hosting package without PHP, what's the best way I can automate the process of them being able to update their sites? Are there any good CMS platforms that don't require PHP? Thanks in advance, Jez Hey guys, I'm trying to convert a website I work on www.darkregions.com so that certain sections (such as the news and new books sections) can be updated dynamically using an easy to use interface. The reason I'm doing this is because the owner of the business wants to be able to do some of the updates himself. What's a system/tool that I could achieve this with? I know it will require PHP/MySQL. Let me know what you guys think. I have a site that is rather large with several pages and files. It is an internal site for the company I work for. Some of the people who send me content to put on the site want to be able to make these updates themselves. None of them know much, if any, HTML or CSS. Is there any tool out there that can make it possible for them to updtate the site without adding a bunch of unecessary code to what is already there? I was looking into CMS applications (this was suggested to me last time I posted about this), but they seem to be applications that you have to build the site with, rather than take a site that already exists and modify. Thanks for any help! Hello again, I have posted previously on a few occasions and had some things fixed with my website. Everything was working fine until just a couple of days ago I noticed something. One of the problems I had was I wanted the images on my pages to load before an swf file, so I got assistance with that and it worked great. I have now noticed that my website once again doesn't load in the order I want AND I have noticed that one of my swf files no longer loads in IE. It does work in Firefox though. I have checked this on two different computers and it definately doesnt work in IE. I haven't made any changes that would stop the page from loading how I wanted it and I have no idea why the swf no longer works in IE. My website URL is ozlotteriesonline.net and the swf file that doesnt work is on /business.html I'd also like to note that the swf file on my homepage still works, it just loads out of sequence. Thanks in advance....again Hello everybody. I was recently working on my website and I was looking at a game that was not coming up properly. The game was coming but the format of the page was for some reason not appearing properly. I tried almost everything I could. Could you guys take a look at it. Thanks. I put a link on the bottom. http://umgames.co.cc/bikemania5.php Hi, I have my website all set up and I added a picture of my free report on the close to the bottom. Im my html editor of my file manager in cpanel it comes out right no problems. But when I type in the website in my browser the jpg image has a x in the left hand corner where the image should be.. Does anybody have any solutions or ideas to fix this problem..?? Thanks Jay Morrison www.provenweightlosssecrets.com Hey guys im sure this question has been answered, but having tried a large majority of the answers none seem to work. I have been building websites using my laptop (15 inch screen) after upgrading to a 17 inch screen im getting problems with the web page. It now has a horizontal scroll bar which i find rather annoying as do many other people that visit my sites. This is what it looks like at the moment on larger screens what i need to find out is how to make it so the page fits within the parameters of the screen without a horizontal scroll bar. this is the code that i used to make on of my sites, if possible could some one tell me where to maybe edit the string of html to get it to fit all screens? <html> <head> <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="content-type"> <title></title> </head> <body style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51); background-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" alink="#ffff33" link="#ffff33" vlink="#ffff33"><div style="text-align: center;"><img style="width: 750px; height: 225px;" alt="" src="http://i488.photobucket.com/albums/rr248/kingofkingspoker/PCKBIGBANER-1.png"><br> <big><br> Home | Investigations | Gallery | Locations | The Team | Methods | Contact us<br> <br> </big> <table style="width: 800px; text-align: left; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="text-align: center;"> <div align="center"><font color="#000000" size="+1"> <marquee bgcolor="#FF0000" direction="left" loop="99999" width="75%"><strong>We are accepting private bookings.

Can anyone help...? Thanks, Spedman975 P.S. Sorry if this isn't where I should post this but I'm new to this! Hey guys, im not sure if anyone has this problem but i have it and im pissing off because of it. I worked on it for over 4 hours to no avail so i decided to get some professional opinion here. I designed my website using Photoshop and save for web and devices, giving me the HTML codes and the entire site is done in tables. I had no problems for buttons whatsoever, i found a way to insert flash banner was by creating a slice and deleting it afterwards to insert my flash banner. The problem: All text, headings, contents appear as image and i would have to reslice the entire website just to change the content and i cant use cutenews etc. So i tried draw ap div, but it is not resolution dependent, it distorts at all kind of resolutions... I tried using Fireworks but to no avail too.. I cant really think of anything else. Something that allows me to do editable content. Please email me if you do not understand what i mean i can show you. molehetoe@live.com or add me in MSN Hi everyone, new to HTMLforums and HTML in general. I am seeking help with this problem : Currently i am trying to create a simple website that could contain pictures and possibly videos that i would upload every few days. It would have these sections - intro, pictures, videos , contact info. I have already purchased a domain name and a webhost. I have read that to create the website and upload the pictures, you need to have some kind of HTML editor like microsoft front page to "write" the pages. I would like to know if there are any free HTML editors that i can download off the internet to write my website. And also, once you have the editor, how do you "link" it to your website so that when you write code, the page appears. Sorry if questions sounds noobish, this is my first time setting up website. Thanks alot. Victor Hello everyone! I am so grateful that there are sites like this to help those like me. I'm ready to be hit by rotten tomatoes because my method for building my first site probably breaks tons of rules. I used Photoshop to create a webpage by slicing a single image with the intention of laying it out in a table. When I first sliced the image and simply set each image using "img src=" in each Table Data cell, it came together fine and looked perfect. The problem happened when I made one of my images the background image for the cell. The reason I did this is because this is going to be my main "Content" area and I want to be able to enter content over the image. For some reason, right when I made this change, the cell directly to the left of my "main content cell" is pushing to the right and creating unwanted blank space...and I can't for the life of me figure out why. I'm pulling my hair out and I'll probably cry myself to sleep tonight. I thought it was my HTML and found a tiny bit of CSS to help, but the problem remains. Thanks so much in advance for any assistance you can provide. The site is here (I added red borders to the table for assistance with review): http://www.geocities.com/mena_beena/Rosco.html Here is my HTML: Code: <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="rosco.css" /> </head> <body bgcolor=black> <table bordercolor=red border=1 cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td colspan=3><img src="Template4_01.jpg"></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan=2><img src="Template4_02.jpg"></td> <td><img src="Template4_03.jpg"><br><img src="Template4_04.jpg"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><img src="Template4_05.jpg"></td> <td class="bg">asdfasdf</td> <td><img src="Template4_07.jpg"><br><img src="Template4_08.jpg"><br> <img src="Template4_09.jpg"><br><img src="Template4_10.jpg"></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Here is my CSS Stylesheet: Code: td.bg{ background: url(Template4_06.jpg); } woops terribly sorry guys for my first post being a false alarm, i experimented a bit and fixed it. Hi, I have an image "m1" set as the background of a table on my website. The table is set to the width of the image "340". However, when I add text it pushes the border and the image repeats/cuts off. http://www.monkeygambling.com/newpage.htm This problem only happens in IE, not in opera. Can anyone help? thanks Hi all, I've just set up my website but there's a small problem when it's viewed in Internet Explorer. The address is http://www.angelsmithphotography.com.au When it's viewed in Internet Explorer, there's a small (approx 3-4 pixel height) black strip between the header image and the text below. I designed the site in Mozilla Firefox and so far, when viewing in that browser, this issue isn't there. I know my HTML is probably riddled with other issues (a legacy of learning HTML seven years ago and never bothering to update my knowledge much) but for now my primary focus is this one issue. I have had a poke around in the HTML and usually I would eventually find (or fluke) the solution, but I'm currently running out of time and patience and so hoped somebody else could help me! Thanks very much. Hello everyone. I recently finished a game website and while I was observing the website I noticed a game that was not working. I don't know how or why it is not working so I came here. I don't know if this is the place to post this problem so I guessed. Anyways here is the URLhttp://umgames.co.cc/evilnights.php Thanks in advance. |
