HTML - Changind Default Form Buttons

Hey there,

I registered in hope of getting some help
I'm creating this bulletin board in our intranet and I really need to add couple of buttons which would help our users with posting their stuff. The board obviously understands HTML and this is what I want to do:

I need to have a button that adds html tags into the textfield when clicked. For example if I wanted to add <br> in the post, I just would have to press a button to do it.

Hope you understand what I mean and hope you can help me, I'm such a newbie when it comes to this

Cheers!

is it possible to change the form buttons to links ??

for example if i have a picture i can only add a link to it
i want to replace the form button with this pic so it still submits or does the action of the button

some might ask why wud i do that but i want to do it coz in these pictures i can customize my own and add my own graphics

sum might tell me to add a background to the button but nope
coz for a windows XP and a windows Vista and a windows 2000 for example
the button takes the shape from the windows theme
so u find XP the XP button
and Vista the new button
and for 2000 the old button
which the background wont work with so well

u know what i mean?

thanx alot

Bye

Hi,

I have one form for searching with 2 buttons, 'Search Site' and 'Search Web'. If possible I'd like the 'Search Site' to just stay in the same window when submitted (with the information from the search text field) and the same with the 'Search Web' button except I'd like it to open in a new window.

Here's what I have:

Code:

<table cellspacing="3" cellpadding="0" align="center">
<tr>
<form name="search" action="/search.php" onSubmit="return checkform()">
<td>
<b class="f14"><a href="/search/" class="nol">Search</a>:</b>&nbsp;
</td>
<td>
<input type="text" name="search" id="search" value="<? echo $search ?>" />
</td>
<td>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" id="Submit" value="Search Site" />
</td>
<td>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" id="Submit" value="Search Web" />
</td>
</form>
</tr>
</table>

Any ideas?

Hi all,

sorry I am pretty new with this so I hope I can explain what it is I am trying to do here.

I've recently been tasked with creating a 'note taking' html template at work, to assist with note taking for operators in a call center. I was selected due to nobody else having any understanding of how computers work beyond using microsoft office, go figure : /

Anyway. Basically what I am trying to do is be able to create a basic htlm template which has a text box, and some 'radio' buttons and check boxes which assign text when selected.

Example, we take down notes when clients call up and speak with someone. We would have say 2 check boxes to cover things like "Full name of client confirmed, confirmed clients details". If the phone operator clicked these 2 buttons, it would copy that exact text into the text box. If they clicked one, it would only copy that.

There would also be a 'radio' button, "Transferred client directly to desired party, transferred client to extension without employee contact" would be the options for example. Basically only 1 option can be selected, and that option would populate the text box if selected.

I'm also looking at hwo to create a button with a 'reset' feature to basically wipe everything clean so it can be started over once the operator takes another call.

So far I am able to create a form with the text box and buttons, but I don't know what code I need to look at to assign text to those buttons.

It's an easy idea, just need to get my foot in the door as I haven't really touched html since I was finishing high school year ago. Anyone able to assist, i would imagine it's not as difficult as I am makign it out to be

Hello All,
I'm creating a form which has got several parts, divided by tables, which are radio buttons, check boxes etc. All the radio button tables work well with the exception of one where it lets you choose all three options or two, as if they were checkboxes.

The code is:
PHP Code:
<div class="roundedcornrboxorange">
   <div class="roundedcornrtoporange"><div></div></div>
      <div class="roundedcornrcontentorange">
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td colspan="3"><h3>Which level do you think you're currently are?</h3></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="30%"><input type="radio" name="level[beginner]" id="beginner" value="1"/> Beginner</td>
<td width="30%"><input type="radio" name="level[intermediate]" id="intermediate" value="1"/> Intermediate</td>
<td width="30%"><input type="radio" name="level[advanced]" id="advanced" value="1"/> Advanced</td>
</tr>
</table>

      </div>
   <div class="roundedcornrbottomorange"><div></div></div>
</div> 


Does anyone have an idea what could be going wrong?

The css (in case it helps) is:

PHP Code:
.roundedcornrboxorange {
margin: 5px 0 0 0;
width: 800px;
clear: both;
   background: #ff7b06 url(../images/roundedcornr190406grad.gif) repeat-x top left;
}
.roundedcornrtoporange div {
   background: url(../images/roundedcornr190406tl.gif) no-repeat top left;
}
.roundedcornrtoporange {
   background: transparent url(../images/roundedcornr190406tr.gif) no-repeat top right;
}
.roundedcornrbottomorange div {
   background: url(../images/roundedcornr190406bl.gif) no-repeat bottom left;
}
.roundedcornrbottomorange {
   background: transparent url(../images/roundedcornr190406br.gif) no-repeat bottom right;
}

.roundedcornrtoporange div, .roundedcornrtoporange,
.roundedcornrbottomorange div, .roundedcornrbottomorange {
   width: 100%;
   height: 10px;
   font-size: 1px;
}
.roundedcornrcontentorange { margin: 0 10px; } 


Many thanks in advance

I know this is probably a strange request but I'm trying to figure out how to use an area tag to define a form submit button (or the equivalent of that). Does anyone know if this can be done?

In a form, how do I define a radiobutton so that when it is selected additional form fields ara loaded onto the same page holding the text in other fields?

I am using Frontpage 2003 to build my site.

Hope someone can help me. I've got a html page set up so that my clients can type in their name, choose several options via radio buttons, an option to clear the form, then submit the form.

What I'm having trouble with is how to obtain the information from the form. I think I would prefer this to be retrieved via email. Is there a way I can:

1. Have the subject of the email be the name of the client (whatever they type in)
2. The results of the form sent to my email (let's say it's myemail@university.edu)

Thanks in advance!

Here is the html code I have:

Hi
Hope someone can help.
I am new to HTML and i am a bit stuck.
I have written a Java script to populate a text box with the contents of a directory and what I want to do is to display a gif or picture whilst the data is getting retrieved.

My code is (it is in a grid)
<TD><textarea name="files" cols="50" rows="20">test</textarea></TD>

What I want is to have the box show a pic as default until the script loads the data.

Thanks
Paul

I'm trying to put default values in my Input fields, which are text fields, of course, but I have numeric input values so I want them on the right. Is there any way to do this?

here's a snippet of my code so's you can see what I mean:

<form action="" id="calculate_form">
<div>
<table style="width: 937px; height: 438px;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
&nbsp; &nbsp;Height: (Metres) </td>
<td style="text-align: center; vertical-align: top;">
<p><input value="0" name="height"
id="height" />&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
</td>
<td>
Cement Price/20kg Bag<br />
</td>
<td><input value="7" name="cementprice"
id="cementprice" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Breadth: (Metres)</td>
<td style="text-align: center; vertical-align: middle;">
<p><input value="0" name="breadth"
id="breadth" />&nbsp;

and so on...........

Perhaps it can't be done in HTML? In that case, what could it be done in? i've got a javascript script on this page, to do the calcs.

I have a document with objects positioned with Absolute values. I want to center the page vertically and horizontally. Is there any way to change the default X and Y, so that the page will display where I want it to?

Thank so much.
Rick

Is this code necessary if I only need zero for all of these, in any given table? Is zero the default setting if none is set? Can I just eliminate this code? FYI (It came as part of a table template.)

border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 style="margin-top:0;"

Hi Guys,
I need to display a default image if a user doesn't upload one eg:
:::::::::Current Code:::::::
<img src="{src}" {width} {height} border="0" hspace="0" alt="{alt}"> //shows the image if a user uploads one

How can i alter the code so that if a user doesnt upload one it defaults to images/default.gif

Thanks

I've got a website here that's split into two frames. The top frame is the header and the bottom frame is the page body. When I print, it only seems to print the header. How can I get it to print the body by default (i.e. without clicking on the body first)?
