HTML - Please Explain This Mystery
Hello,
I put this general question he 1/ I saw a page looking like http://www.site.com/something google toolbar gives no pr indication. 2/ But you can also type http://www.site.com/something/ this time pr is 4. In each case, this brings up the same page. my understanding is case 2/, this is a directory because of the "/"; so there must be an index.html file behind it; case 1/ I do not know what that is, I mean the "something" as I called it does not have a .htm(l) extension, so it is not a page. Can someone please explain: - how this work with or without the "/" - how come one shows pr4 the other pr0; does Google not know what is going on? Similar TutorialsI noticed that recently my home page is spewing out a noxious popup window! I never set up any popup windows in the code and the word "popup" does not exist in the code of the page. There is one Google adsense banner on the page, one Firefox3 advert link, and two affiliate links. My guess is that it's got to be one of the affiliate links. The popup window address always starts with the same IP # so the various popup are originating from the same place. Is there a quick way to find out the origin of the popup window? OK, I have no clue why this is happening: In the following code, the far right-hand column stays bold, even though there is no reference to bold fonts being made. There is no way to turn the bold off, it's just stuck there. Has anyone ever run into this problem before??

I have checked the jpgs, and they are the same in these respects. The codes for each page are identical. Nevertheless, when you toggle back and forth from /bands.html to schoolofrock.html, there is a discernable shift in the placement. What gives? Thanks for your help in advance. Best, Chris. For some reason the text and links on the following page are not working... as in you can't click on them. At first they wouldn't show over the background, and now they do but they don't function. Why? How do I fix that? Also, how do I get the iframe background to be transparent against that image so it all flows together and do I need to do anything to ensure that the iframe comes up? Why doesn't it show?

I must explain what: TABLE, PHP, CSS and DIV is used and what they mean. but I can not find some pages which explain to me what I need, so I would hear about in could help me ... I need: What used (TABLE, PHP, CSS and DIV) to? why use them and nothing else? I was wondering how to get the titles with a plus to the left of them and then when you click on them it extends with more options (like when you are browsing in windows). Any help is appreciated hi! I've been building a website for my dad's little hobby, and it looks pretty oke on most browsers. Still, 1 of the 50 pc's shows the website wrong. The div's are placed very bad in some internet explorer versions, which causes a big white hole in the site. Can anybody look at my code and tell me what could be the problem ? http://www.rdhpage.com/cavia/ I hope somebody can see the code through firefox The css is here : http://www.rdhpage.com/cavia/stylagoutie.css Thanks for the help Code: <?xml version="1.0" ecoding="UTF-8"?> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> Please explain to me those two lines (I did not include the doctype because I can understand what it's for) in a manner easy to understand. I'm not a beginner, but I didn't do those lines very often back then. What do they mean and how do they affect an HTML file? Thank you in advance! I am reading this: Quote: Another important special character you should know about is the & character. If you'd like to have an & in your html content, use the character entity & instead of the & character itself. I don't understand the entire paragraph above, can any give an example of the above or explain in another way please? This is a mixed html, database, and php question. I found this image: http://img.gsmarena.com/vv/pics/sams...eternity-1.jpg And I would like to display it so that the screen part is 240x400 and I would like to run a java app in the screen part. I also want the "?app=whatever" at the end of the url to find the link to "whatever" in a database and use that link for the address to the java app. Finally, I want to set up this database so it contains the name, description, category, link to jad file, and link to jar file of each app. This is my first post here by the way. hi team, just wondering what code i would require to make a text box with a search button next to it and having the following characteristics... * input can be any letter/number (say for eg: 5555) * onclick sends parent window to www.website.com/5555 thus whatever you enter into the box sends you to a website address with the text box entry at the end. this is for an internal webpage at our small business. cheers and any tips appreciated!! THIS PROBLEM IS WITH --IE-- ONLY I have this piece of code that I simplified as much as I could to show a simple example: PHP Code: <table width="50%"> <tr><td colspan="2">short</td></tr> <tr> <td width="128"><img src="" width="110"></td> <td>a<br>a<br>a</td> </tr> </table> <table width="50%"> <tr><td colspan="2">long long long long long long long</td></tr> <tr> <td width="128"><img src="" width="110"></td> <td>a<br>a<br>a</td> </tr> </table> For some reason when long-long-long text is long enough, it pushes a-a-a-a to the right even through one of the cells is limited to 128 pixels.. If I color the backgrounds of the cells in different colors, it is evident that it is the cell pushing, not text-alignment problem Question, why the cell is affected but the upper cell text length even through it is properly col-spanned..? |
