HTML - Alt Tags For Links?

i have a problem about using div tags in general and positioning layers on a page. i'm a beginner so forgive my way of asking but i would appreciate any help i could get in understanding it.

I was doing reading and practicing at the w3 site and came along the <pre>/</pre> tag section.
I find it easier using these tags instead of the <p>/<p> tags as you don't have to insert <br> tags everytime you want to start a new sentence within your paragraph.
Does it really matter as far as coding goes if you use this or is it just considered not
proper coding techiques?



Note:
Also,i added a paragraph at the very end of my test page just using the <pre>/</pre> tags and the "Style/Type Attributes" did not apply to it.Why is this?

Kindly,
Texan

First post on here, but I'm not really new to HTML. I just have a problem with the placing of a picture on a page.

My website is www.fcumania.co.uk, which was created mainly with the use of a website designer - though these days I just edit it through Notepad. I have a problem whereby I need to add a small picture in the box where the crude "Hi-Resolution pictures" form is located. I can't seem to be able to edit the code, and the div tags in order to do this.

I know it has something to do with the CSS, and so presuming you can view the source code on the main site, the CSS files are located he

www.fcumania.co.uk/index_p.css
www.fcumania.co.uk/index_g.css

I'm sure all of you on here will be able to resolve this, and TIA if you can.

Who can HELP ME with divs

Hello there, I need some help with my DIV tag as it isnt doing what I tell it to do.


Heres a screenshot of it:



And here is the CSS code:
Code:

body{
	background-image: url(img/bg.gif);
	font-family: verdana, arial;
	font-size: 12px;
	color: black;
}
#content{
	height: 100%;
	width: 750px;
        background-color: #afafaf;
	margin-left: auto;
	margin-right: auto;
	border: medium;
	border-color: red;
	border-style: solid;
	padding-left: 5px;
	padding-top: 5px;
}
#copyright{
	height: 20px;
	width: 740px;
	background-color: #9f9f9f;
	margin-left: auto;
	margin-right: auto;
	padding-left: 5px;
	padding-bottom: 15px;
	border: medium;
	border-color: black;
	border-style: solid;
}

Its the "copyright" one that is messing with me, as you can see the red border is there.
But the small div tag wont center in the div tag.



I hope you understand what I mean

Hi all,

I'm working on a wordpress site with nextgen plugin (not really important)
My problem is this:
Let's say i have this structu
HTML Code:

<p>
  <a href="">
    <img src="" />
  </a>
</p>

Now if my img is 100px height, the <p> still stays 0px, and i think that's because of the <a> tag.
But the <p> has to adjust its height to whatever height the <img> is.
How can i achieve this?

I hope you understand what i mean here
Thanks already.

Should be something simple to figure out, I know... but I'm having some trouble with the div tags in a section of my site.

What I'm trying to do is place a few images side by side, 160 pixels from the top and center alignment.
It places the images 160px from top but not in the center...

This is the code I'm using:
<div
style="
top: 160;
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
visibility: show;
align: center; ">

Why won't it work???

Hi I'm currenty learning how to use div tags
I was wondering if anyone had any resources on the attributes of the div tag, havent came across anything that relates to the code i am currently working on.

HTML Code:

  <div style = "z-index:2;left:40px;top:100px;position:absolute;color:red;text:white;font-size:30pt;border:groove">
      <p> Division 1 </p>
    </div>

    <div style = "z-index:2;left:00px;top:250px;position:absolute;color:red;text:white;font-size:30pt;border:groove">

    </div>

Does div tags generally just handle borders or can u fill a division with colour as in make a rectangle or whatever?
Heres some code i have been presented by my lecturer, I can read the attributes well i think but if someone could explain it i would be greatfull just to check my understanding

Thanks CW

Hi,

" SPRAY TAGS" I've noticed this on CS source.
Does anyone what exactly it is and know how to do them?

I understand that there should only be one H1 tag in a document, but what about H2, H3 etc.

For example if I had a page listing products I would apply the H1 tag to the category, but I think the products in the list would be of equal importance, so would it be semantically correct to apply H2 tags to the products?

And to take it a bit further, if each of the product had options (i.e. sub-products), would it be correct to apply H3 tags to the options?

e.g.

<h1>Dogs</h1>
<h2>Labrador</h2>
<h3>Golden</h3>
<h3>Chocolate</h3>
<h3>Black</h3>
<h2>Collie</h2>
<h3>Border</h3>
<h3>Rough</h3>
<h3>Bearded</h3>
<h2>Boxer</h2>
<h2>Retreiver</h2>
<h3>Golden</h3>
<h3>Flat coat</h3>

Thanks

I've encountered what to me seems a strange HTML quirk problem (though I'm very amateur so may not be a quirk at all).

I recently used a free online tool to create the code for an image map linking to my social networking sights. It can be seen on the right hand side of my pages: www.zorandesigns.com

What keeps happening now is every time I go to edit pages, the <area></area> tags keep duplicating exponentially. So any time I do any editing I have to make sure I redelete the duplicates. Even when I do when I resave 3 new tags will appear again. Next time I go to edit there are 6 tags and if I forget to delete them there will be 12 next time, then 24 and so on. At first I didn't realize this was happening and I had hundreds of duplicate area tags.

I use go daddy html file editor to edit the pages. The section of troublesome code is below. Would appreciate any insight on how to resolve this problem as simply deleting clearly hasn't worked.

<div style="text-align:center; width:189px; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;"><img usemap="#Image-Maps_6201201241459158" height="63" width="189" src="images/social networking icons.gif" border="0" id="Image-Maps_6201201241459158" />
