HTML - Advice On Editing Html Via Ftp
Hey people,
First post here and I hope you guys can help me. I'm currently helping out a family friend's company with general IT stuff, wether it be designing things for them or website stuff. Now I am by no means an experienced web designer, hence why I came here. They asked me today if I can make some changes to one of the sites they run, really simple ones at that. All I need to do is update some of the text on the site, change the dates etc. I have access to the ftp, using filezilla, and for the life of me I cannot find the html files I need to change. Now I obviously don't expect you guys to tell me where they are, but is there a method you would use to track them down? Right now there seems to be a ridiculous amount a folders and files for what seems to be a relatively simple site! I hope someone can point me in the right direction, for reference this is the website I need to make changes to http://kcsfireworks.co.uk/ Hope you guys can help point me in the right direction! Cheers Similar TutorialsHi need some help this is my poker blog http://mrcea.blogspot.com/ its currently set as a 2 tier which is 2 sections, my friend also has a poker blog which is a 3 tier (3 sections) here it is http://amatay.blogspot.com/ The only way to change it is to edit the html and make my blog a 3 tier Can someone help please??? Thanks C. I'm editing a map and want to change the size of the box that appears when I mouse over an object. The code for the entire map is <table width="550" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td><img src="img/map_top.gif" width="464" height="222" usemap="#projects" border="0" name="Image1"> <map name="projects"> <area shape="circle" coords="254,167,16" href="#" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('no_box','','img/hiv_label.gif',1)"> <area shape="circle" coords="158,183,16" href="#" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('no_box','','img/hiv_label.gif',1)"> <area shape="circle" coords="141,151,16" href="#" onMouseOut="" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('no_box','','img/css_label.gif',1)"> <area shape="circle" coords="81,120,7" href="/science/phs/cprp/projects/whiscc.html" target="/science/phs/cprp/projects/whiscc.html" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('no_box','','img/whi_label.gif',1)" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()"> </map> <br> <img src="img/map_bottom_left.gif" width="221" height="38"><img src="img/no_box.gif" width="243" height="38" name="no_box"> <br> </td> </tr> </table> To pick one specific example that I want to edit, I want the circle produced by <area shape="circle" coords="141,151,16" href="#" onMouseOut="" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('no_box','','img/css_label.gif',1)"> to produce a larger box (the css_label image gets compressed and make the words hard to read.) How do I increase the size of the css_label.gif so it is readable? Thanks, Kevin. Hi, I wish to know how to edit or remove any unwanted comments being posted in the comment box of my created website. Kindly suggest the html code to delete it from my website. Thanks in advance. Once the web page, still under construction, has taken shape and is going through font styling etc, is it normal just to open the html in IE and change the contents from View/Source or should I always edit the file in Notepad and then save back to html? Hi everyone, Good day to you.

I am sorry for posted this queries to you as this is my first time to carry out this task. Thank you. Manicui Hi, Found these forums on google whilst searching for the answer to my question. I currently have a site with 320+ pages and have recently come to a point where I need to change a section of code which is identical on every page, does anyone know of an editor or program where it is possible to edit this section of code on all of the pages at once or am I going to have to edit each page one by one? Ive used a meta tag editor which has a similar function to what I require but im yet to find a HTML editor which can do this. Any help appreciated Hi all! I'm new to this forum. I'm not very tech savvy so this is probably why I'm about to lose my mind trying to figure out the solution to my problem.... I would like a good software program where I can create templates in html format so that I can email for marketing purposes. I've tried a few online services and their limitations have me beating my head against the wall. I don't know html code. And I don't need to build a website. And I don't want to spend an outrageous amount of money. But I do want to create a template that will get to someones inbox, not junk mail, and arrive without attachments. I need the software to be user friendly & have an easy interface where I can easily edit using a visual editing tool. Does that exist? Any advice would be very much appreciated Hello all, I really want to revamp my theme that I use on my Tumblr blog and I figured you'd be the ones to help. I'm computer literate, both Mac and PC, but I know nothing of coding. I ashamed to say this, but nevertheless I'm willing to learn a little if any of you will hold my hand through some changes I'd like to make to my Tumblr theme. Here's a link to my Tumblr page. As you can see, it's a default theme. The list of things I'd like to do is a little jagged, but I really want all my pictures to have a limit to their size and how much space they can take up. Also, I'd to know how to remove the visual tags on the left hand side. As if that's not enough adding a display of how may "notes" (for those who are tumblr literate) my posts have. Font too. How do I even begin changing these things? There are no options in the simple customize pane displayed at the top. But, I can edit the HTML... so what do I do? Please tell me if you need any information, I really want this to work. Thanks everyone. Connor Flynn Hey guys!! I am a newbie at the whole HTML thing so looking here for some advice from you experts! I am looking for a simple way of making small buttons for people to post on either their website or social media. Like you know those sites where they ask you to give them a free link if they provide a free service for you? does anyone know of any good software or a really easy way of making a picture button like this? Thanks in advance for your help!! Cheers .................... "This will help immensely when you 1) rewrite all your pages and can use a script to replace one set of standard text with another set of standard text instead of doing all the changes by hand and 2) when someone else tries to modify or add to your collection of web pages. " I am basically teaching myself html web-design and am trying to understand what is meant by the first piece of advice... can someone explain what is meant by this in a languge that someone who is still trying to understand the basics of html would understand? Any clarification will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Hi people, hopefully you can help. I've made a website for a artist-run collective here in Edinburgh, Scotland and everything is getting under way. I had a few questions with some issues I have been encountering and perhaps you could send me some information on if there is anyway to fix this. http://www.modular9.co.uk/ That's the site. Some things aren't up yet but you get the idea. The main issue is with the index page anyway. I have used a collection of image paths and rollovers and if you take a look at the source you'll see my very basic, yet required, html/css. One of the issues is the delay in rollover. I understand it is because it is loading a whole image each time you rollover the tally marks, but is there any way to speed this up? Or use a script that isn't as ineffective as javascript? I don't mind the delay but I know that the rollover is meant to exist so I give it a second or two, but people coming to the site for the first time might not notice the navigation and leave :/ Also, on some of my friend's computers at college, when they click on, artists, or the about section, or contact, for example, the background doesn't show up as the colours I put down. Is this because I used css to do so? Are there actually some browsers that can't take css yet? I know it's a bit vague and a general query but any tips and things would be great to make the site more effective and smooth running. Hope you are all well. Rich Hello all. I am still new to HTML coding. I come from the dark side (flash) and am seeing the light anyway I am building a "flash alt" site and I am building it around the Cargocollective.com platform. and I DESPERATELY need a HTML or JAVA or some other iphone / ipad friendly music player for the site. I have been searching for weeks but all I keep finding are the same flash plugs that make the whole concept redundant. any help, guidance, or advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated.... thanks On a phpbb3 style i want to add another href to the main menu across the top menu but i dont know what to do to change it, i know a bit of HTML but the way this is written i dont know what to do. this is what i think is the main menu on the overal_header.html Code: <table width="100%" cellspacing="0">

My forum if needed its Simply Shelby Cheers if someone can solve this problem for me, if theres anything else you need to know please just ask Jake Iv got this code which is on one of my pages for a contact form, which is then emailed to me using a portal system on the server. I'm just wondering if i can edit this code somehow so that if a certain option is picked then more boxes get added to the form? The code i have is; Code: <form action="feedback.html" method="post">
<table width="797" height="410" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" align="center">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<h3 style="border-bottom: 1px solid black;">Contact Us</h3>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label style="float: left; width: 140px;" for="YourName">Your Name:</label><input type="text" style="width: 200px;" maxlength="" value="" id="YourName" name="YourName" />
<div style="clear: left; height: 20px;"> </div>
<label style="float: left; width: 140px;" for="YourEmail">Your Email:</label><input type="text" style="width: 200px;" maxlength="" value="" id="YourEmail" name="YourEmail" />
<div style="clear: left; height: 20px;"> </div>
<label for="HearAboutUs" style="float: left; width: 140px;">What is the nature of your enquiry?</label><select id="Nature" name="Nature of Enquiry">
<option value="Advertising">Advertising</option>
<option value="Site Feedback">Site Feedback</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option>
</select>
<div style="clear: left; height: 20px;"> </div>
<label style="display: block; margin-bottom: 5px;" for="MessageComments">Message/Comments:</label><textarea style="width: 400px; height: 100px;" maxlength="" id="MessageComments" name="MessageComments"></textarea>
<div style="clear: left; height: 20px;"> </div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="left"><input type="submit" value=" Submit " /> <input type="reset" value=" Reset " /></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</form>
Its not set up for me yet but i want it so that if someone selects the advertising enquiry option then more boxes appear for their site URL and image URL to be put. I guess this would be done using an IF command, but how? I hope this makes sense. Thanks Jake A client needs to edit one page of their site remotely using a browser. I'm not sure how to proceed. Do they need a page with form fields that are password protected so only they can provide content? Is there another way to edit wysiwyg text online without using a separate application? Any help would be appreciated. |
