HTML - Text Links

When I place links on my bands myspace page the link text displays on the page vertically instead of horizontally on some computers. It displayed correctly (Horizontally) on the PC I created it on, but when i view it on other PCs the text was vertical.

Here is the page. It's the white text near the top. (Add To Friends, Send Message etc.)

Here is the code for the links.
I am a beginner with HTML.

Thanks,

I just need a basic code for this. For what I presume is basic anyway.

On MySpace, I'll insert links, and MySpace will automatically make it a hyperlink, but won't allow you to visit certain links that you click on. How do you prevent it from being a link and so that it's just text? I thought <nohtml> worked, but apparently it doesn't exist.

Would help me out loads, thanks,

Sam/.

I'm trying to position text, links and pictures to follow one after the other, but it doesn't work.


I want to see

"Homepage" on the left corner of my webpage
"Next" on the right corner of my webpage

Unfortunately this command doesn't work properly.

<div style="text-align:left;solid 2px #ff0000;"><a href="F:\Webcomic\Website Folder\NWvisuals-Index.html"> Home</a> <p align=right><a href="F:\Webcomic\TheEyeoftheWorld3.html">Next</a></div></p>

It makes the "Next" go down a line, instead of being in the same line of the "Homepage".



Also, on that vein, is there any way I can align images and text on the same line without using spaces*?

As in:

<p align="left">Hello</p> <p align="center">Hello</p> <p align="right">Hello</p>

But they all should stay on the same line. Any guides, or even links to tutorial about my issue would be appreciated. I've been trying to google for a while, it's becoming frustrating.


*I think the problem with spaces is that people with different resolution would see the text in different places than I want them to see.

Hello again, I did this site in Dreamweaver, looked fine in my dreamweaver editor, uploaded it and voila everything goes nuts.

List of Problems: The Links are not positioned properly, not big enough plus the drop downs to the bottom and not to the right. That was properly my fault since I just copied a suckerfish method... But can someone help with this.

If you study the News Header in the CSS, it says it has a background image, how ever it doesn't show when I uploaded it. I know the url and the pic is correct cause it worked in Dreamweaver...

The background for "welcome" is all the way up there which isn't supposed to happen, it supposed to be right on top of the Hello text but that isn't happening either.

The hello and welcome are supposed to be aligned to the left of the right header.

Thats about it, please can someone help me. I've changed the format of this like 3 times just to get it correctly done, but nothings working.

Thank you

And don't worry I got it all validated and what not

I have several websites that I maintain and update. A lot of them are just textual changes and I would think my customers can do these themselves by editing a simple .txt file.

I was hoping my choices are avalable so that I can just insert this tag into my web pages and then give them login info to their edit page or show them how to upload the .txt file.

I hope this is an easy one with several answers.

Is it possible these tags could discipline your rankings in the search engines?

Thanks,
Jason

Hi All,
I am new to this forum and is expecting an answer for this question. I have implemented a facebook type search to the database which displays the familiar text saved in the database when I type some text in the database. My issue is after I have used the search box for a couple of time the text box starts displaying a similar dropdown from its history which hides my database search. Does anyone know how to disable it using html or css. See the attached Image if my question is not clear.
http://www.htmlforums.com/attachment...1&d=1306715905

here is the (ineffective) code currently:

<img style="float: left; width: 169px; height: 73px;" src="img/logo1.png" alt="" />
<h1 style="text-align: center;">random text</h1>

the image shifts the left margin such that the text is centered as though the page width was 169px less than it really is.

i'm not debating the code itself; the code above behaves as its meant to. aka no surprises. i just cant figure out the appropriate code to center the text across the entire real width of the page as though there was no image.

i've tried div tags & all the things google hunting advised. no luck. other than finding this forum, which seems like it'll be a boon!

thanx in advance for advise/comments/feedback/help.

How do I Link text in a div, h1, h2, p to an external text file or xml file - I don't really know how to ask the question. I think I need an xml file that can be easily edited by a user saved to the server to update an xhtml page text without the user getting bogged down in html.

I don't want to use joomla or cms.

<Any ideas />?

Best wishes,
mas

i have a lot of text files(2-400) all have quite alot of text inside them so is there some software that can help me convert it all into html pages??

somthing that i am doing right now is: copied all of my text files pasted them into other location and editing each file and giving extention html/htm.

now can u tell somthing better??

all the files will open in same frame(obviously one at a time), all have styling n everything same.

The problem with having only a nominal knowledge is that everything you want to do ends up taking hours because you can't figure out what it's called so you don't know how to search for it!

I'm trying to have a left sidebar where when you hover over it, a new menu of links appears. Here are a few examples of what I'm looking for:

Amazon. When you hover over the books or other links to the right, it gives you more options: http://www.amazon.com/

PBS. If you hover over Episodes it gives you more options. I want a left justified thing, but it's the same idea, I think: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episo...oduction/3153/

Or even something as simple as this. Hover over "Club Events." http://www.springfieldkennelclub.org/

Thanks!

Hi,

I'm new at this and was wondering if anyone could help me with the Html syntax so that when i click on <a href> link instead of going to a new page it simply either drops down or pops out with a number of other links which actually bring you to pages??

Something like the main link it "options" and the sub link are "sounds" and "view".

Thanks for your help!!!!

I am building a Website for my Web Design class in school. I am using Dreamweaver CS4 at home. What the problem is that I have linked my Myspace, my Youtube, and my Twitter on the site I am making. When I test out the links on the web what happens is that it uses the Web address I am at and the Web address I clicked and adds it together. For Example,

Lets say I have linked my myspace on my youtube. It would look like this,


www.youtube.com/www.myspace.com. Why does it do this.

Anything helps. Thank you.

does anyone know how to create a link that brings you down to a lower part of the page?

Can someone look at this page for me and tell me why some of my links change color after being visited but not all of them i am stumped.
