I am currently deployed to Afghanistan and part of my job requires me to convert times from the local Afghanistan time to Zulu time. Normally this would be easy but Afghanistan is one of the handful of countries that are off set from zulu (GMT) by 4 hours and 30 minutes. I end up spending a lot of time second guessing my calculations therefore wasting my time when there is a better way to make sure they are right. Here is what I am looking to do: I would like to create a very simple calculator that allows the user to put in a time and click a button and it will kick out the results. I would like to make it so that it will calculate both to zulu (GMT) and from zulu to local time. Something that I would like to do with this but isn't really required is that I would like to put a drop-down list that would have all of the different time offsets listed and that way you could select the offset and it would calculate the time for anywhere in the world. I really have no idea where to start with this project. I would prefer this calculator to align to the top left side of a page so that it will fit on the page that I plan on putting it on. Any help that anyone could be able to give would be awesome. I have been searching the internet for the information and I haven't been able to find much of anything. Hello! I've found on w3schools.com an example on creating simple animations, using xhtml: (3 lines of text appear and disappear continuously) Code: <html xmlns:t="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:time"> <head> <?import namespace="t" implementation="#default#time2"> <style>.t {behavior: url(#default#time2)}</style> </head> <body> <t:seq repeatCount="indefinite"> <h2 class="t" dur="1s">I will display for one second</h2> <h2 class="t" dur="2s">I will display for two seconds</h2> <h2 class="t" dur="3s">I will display for three seconds</h2> </t:seq> </body> </html> If I try this code with Internet Explorer, under Windows XP it works, but if I try it under Linux(Ubuntu 9.04), with FireFox or Opera, it does not. Should I install something or activate an option? and, furthermore, is there anything to be used as a time namespace instead of urn:schemas-microsoft-com:time? something not from microsoft, beacause that may be the problem... thank you in advance! okay so i have tables built with images set as the background property of the table sections to created a rounded graphical appearance to the tables. the problem is that when the page loads without being cached on the clients end for the first time it builds the site in a choppy method. you see each image come up one at a time and it builds the tables, after its cached that goes away until you dump your cache in your browser. so what im wanting to know is, is there a way (other than server side compression) to reduce or remove this choppy load time, so its just like.. blank page then BAM! full page, like a way to force precaching or make it so fast that you cant visually see the tables being built before they are cached? www.wiffleague.com/main.php so heres some things i tried: - making the images as small as i know how (they could be smaller i guess, im not sure how to do that though) - reducing the amount of images to the bare minimum required to render the tables properly - removing redundant html code from the tables such as 'width="100%"' from some of the td fields when a prior row already has the width set properly, thus the columns still align properly but there is less code to process some things that are not suitable solutions: - get a faster server - put less content data on the page - only use _____ browser - use apache's gzip compression to force the images even smaller than they already are during transmission then the browser decompresses and renders them Hello, I am designing a site for a friend at: www.vintageparlor.com I am fairly new to HTML, but I know FTP and how hosting works. Something I have noticed is that the site seems to load a bit sluggish... I am guessing that this is due to the images on the page, specifically the background image. What should I do? Or is that not the problem? Thanks! -Jordan I was wondering if there was a simple way or script out there that anyone knows that can change a picture at a certian time? I am doing a website for a diner and they close at 3:00pm and I was thinking about putting a sign on the website that would simply say "Open" when the diner is open and "Closed" when its obviously closed. Thanks in advanced OK this is the first time I've tried playing around with HTML, and obviously my first time using an HTML forum. If I mess this post up please understand. Basically I have text that is being cut off early (white text on blue, blue ends and white text is lost in the white next to it) and I wanted to know if there is a way to get the text to move to a new line instead of being cut off early. This way it will remain in the blue background. I have removed what I believe is the important stuff Basically it looks like this: Code: <body background="path_to_background.jpg"> <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td><div class="wh">Some_Sort_of_Title</div></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="100" valign="top"> <br><font color="white">THIS IS THE TEXT THAT GETS CUT OFF AND THAT I NEED TO FIX BECAUSE IT IS TOO LONG </font> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> <some unimportant stuff for downloading a pdf a></a> </td> </tr> </table> </body> So as you can see it is that <font> </font> section that I'm trying to rectify as my background is not the width of a full page. Even if you just refer me to a beginners guide of some sort that could help me out that would be awesome. Thanks guys Hello All- I'd like to add a user registration and login to my website. So that an individual may log in and be brought to a customized personal screen. Obviously this is some in-depth stuff but I'd like to know how to go about learning how to do such a thing. Any thoughts? thanks! hello, I'm having a little trouble trying to find a solution, maybe I'm just searching the wrong key words as ive spent a hours trying to work this out, what I'm after is a way that once I have created a website, I can add some form of coding or software that allows the website owner/end user to change the content or add pictures easily with out the need to have any knowledge in HTML etc. I know this should be possible as many website company's offer this service and it's also used on the web site building software offered by most hosting providers. If someone could point me in the right direction or just what this type of service is called I would be very greatful. Many thanks Julian I am working on a page at the moment and I am trying to figure out the best way to let the user know what page they are on. For example... if they click services... maybe the leftnav would go Bold or I could write services on the Top of the page? I was wondering if I could edit the CSS to automate this? I doubt you can do this but just in case here is my css Code: body { margin:10px; background-color:#f0f0f0; font-family:verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:18px; } #container { width:776px; margin:auto; background-image:url(../images/container-white-bg.png); box-shadow:#333 15px 15px 30px; } #banner { display:block; width:760px; height:120px; padding:8px 8px 0 8px; background-color:#066; } #top-nav { width:768px; height:81px; padding:8px 0 8px 8px; margin:0; list-style-type:none; background-color:#066; } #top-nav li { float:left; margin-right:8px; } #top-nav a,#top-nav span { position:relative; display:block; width:120px; height:81px; } #top-nav span { position:absolute; top:0; left:0; background-image:url(../images/gallery-banner.png); } #mcad {background-position:-8px -8px;} #nios {background-position:-134px -8px;} #moad {background-position:-260px -8px;} #scad {background-position:-386px -8px;} #clou {background-position:-512px -8px;} #what {background-position:-638px -8px;} #nav { float:left; width:120px; padding:0 8px; margin:0; list-style-type:none; background-color:#066; } #nav li { margin-bottom:2px; } #nav a { display:block; width:120px; padding:30px 0; font-family:arial,sans-serif; font-size:90%; font-weight:bold; color:#033; text-align:center; background-color:#699; } #nav a:visited { color:#000; } #nav a:hover { color:#fff; } #content { float:left; width:610px; padding:25px 15px 10px 15px; } #content p { margin:0 0 10px; font-size:90%; color:#000; } #services { font-size:110%; color:#000; } .text-indent { text-indent:20px; } .padding-bottom { padding-bottom:16px; } #footer { clear:both; line-height:30px; color:#000000; text-align:center; background-color:#066; } and here is an example page Contact us Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta name="language" content="english"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css"> <title>MESH, Inc. - Contact us</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/main.css"> </head> <body> <div id="container"> <img id="banner" src="images/topbanner.png" alt="top banner"> <ul id="top-nav"> <li><a href="mcad_project.html">mcad<span id="mcad"></span></a></li> <li><a href="niosh_project.html">niosh<span id="nios"></span></a></li> <li><a href="mcad_project.html">mcad<span id="moad"></span></a></li> <li><a href="mcad_project.html">mcad<span id="scad"></span></a></li> <li><a href="cloud_mapping.html">cloud<span id="clou"></span></a></li> <li><a href="#">what<span id="what"></span></a></li> </ul> <ul id="nav"> <li><a href="home.html">Home</a></li> <li><a href="products.html">Products</a></li> <li><a href="services.html">Engineering Services</a></li> <li><a href="projects.html">Projects</a></li> <li><a href="publications.html">Publications</a></li> <li><a href="contact_us.html">Contact Us</a></li> <li><a href="about_us.html">About Us</a></li> </ul> <div id="content"> <p>If you would like to get in touch with us about the services we can offer, please email us</p> <p> </p> <p>For general enquiry <a href="mailto:info@meshoxford.com">info@meshoxford.com</a></p> <p> </p> <p>For business development <a href="mailto:meshengineering@meshoxford.com">meshengineering@meshoxford.com</a></p> <p>or call us at 610-932-7754 </p> <p>MESH is located on 114 Barnsley Road, Oxford , PA 19363</p> <p> </p> </div><!-- end #content --> <div id="footer">Contact Us via phone 610-932-7754 or email <a href="mailto:info@meshoxford.com">info@meshoxford.com</a></div> </div><!-- end #container --> </body> </html> Thank you in advance M This might have already been answered but I need html code for this. "User input field" redirects to www.website.com/"user input".aspx Simple I think but I am going crazy trying to get it to work. I would like it to open to the page not a frame. Thanks Pete Hi, is possible to differentiate css code depending on the operating system of the customers ? for example fonts look different in Firefox using Windows and Firefox using Safari thanks Hey guys very new, have this cool idea for a site and would like to go with it. How can I get a map like this sites. www.skatespots.net Where users can post on the map for others to see. Thank you Sorry if this isn't in the right place. i have a windows live website, its the free basic version, the purpose of the site is to display minutes from meetings and other general info, however i would like to make the info private and was wondering if it would be possible to do this with html/xhml, i have the form script to login from the homepage but am unsure how to procceed with creating the users id's and passwords any help for a novice would be appreciated regards and thanks john www.erctrw.com Is there a code that only first time visitors can see (it can tell by tracking cookies?) and that can show a delete-able message? If there is one, can you share it with me (is there any CSS involved?). Also, if you don't know of such a code, please tell me so I don't waste my time searching . hmm is there a way to do this so i have a text link <input type=button onClick="show()" value="hide"> when the user clicks on the button it calls some javascript which shows a div (not relevant!!). is there a way so that you click on the same button again it calls some different javascript e.g. hide() ?? I know about onFocus, onBlur etc but this is not what i need. I am trying to create a simple html page that when opened and whilst viewing has a running clock...is that possible..? If so, what coding is required...? |
