HTML - Creating An Easily Updated Website
Hello I'm not sure if this is in the right section, but I'm trying to figure out how to make my website more easily maintainable.
EG On my site there is a bar on every page with my "latest updates", every time I want to add an update I have to add it to every page which is tiresome. I was wondering if I can just have this bar point to a text file on every page so I can just update this one file and it will be displayed on all pages. Hopefully this isn't too difficult, thanks.

Hello All, I am looking to create a website very similar to this http://www.loserstatus.com/ that is my friends site and I currently have this www.canapictures.com . I like how simple his layout is but it looks sooo much better than mine lol. He hired someone to build it so he has no idea how it was made. Does anyone know if there is a template or something I can use to make something similar, I mainly just want the scrolling box with pictures that are linked to videos like he has on the top of the page below the banner. This will be my first website, aside of simple projects from my school class. A friend of mine has a website that is currently already up an running. He would like the site completely re-done, as he moved his company, has new offers, etc. Is the best way to do it, to re-write/edit from scratch, or to use a free website builder? I have beginners html/css/Javascript writing knowledge, and have been searching online when I need help. Let's say he already has a website called www.5star.com If I use a free website builder, will I be able to transfer all that to his domain name he already has so it doesnt become something like www.freewebsite/hostme/5star.com ? He is getting the FTP info from the guy who originally made his site. Thank you. (I have been working it from scratch and have a lot done, but want it to look great, and not just a plain static site). Hey everyone! I don't know much about HTML so please be gentle in responding. I'm setting up a form for online donations for the organization I work for and we're using Paypal to receive the donations. The problem is that I need to be able to let people designate their donations to specific projects and such but Paypal won't do that. I know that I can set up a form on our website that allows them to select the different projects, put in the amounts and then have a box at the bottom giving the total donation. The problem I have is that whenever they fill out this form and move on to the Paypal payment page, they have to re-enter the total donation on the Paypal payment page. I want to eliminate this step, if possible. My question is this: Is there a way to have the total donation amount copied and pasted onto the Paypal payment page so they wouldn't have to re-enter it? Thanks for your help in this matter! Jason Hi, I'm looking to create a simple booking form on a html website.

I am pretty good with HTML, and know quite alot. But when it comes to finding somewhere to place all the code, it confuses the hell out of me lol. So, a few questions. - What programme is the best for writing your code into? - Once I have saved the code in this programme, how do I upload it through the FTP? (like, where do I place it?) - Is that it, or is there more to it? Cheers guys, Preemo Ive been asked to fix up an old webpage. The old web master is a bit senile and can not complete the page. I had created a php page but the server is so old that it doesnt support php. I want a page with a simple leftnav and I need to add a photogallery with thumbnails... anyone have any advice for me?

Hi, I was wondering if i could receive some help creating a blog-type website. With on the sidebar: archive, calender, recent posts etc. Posts: read more button, todays date, author (posted by) etc. Facebook share button, twitter etc. Flash banner with a picture slider add own logo, slogan, footer etc. I tried wordpress but the themes are not that great and it wont let you do a lot. Is there an app or software that will make this easy? Thank you, W. Hi people! I am semi-new to html, and have tried to figure this one out on myself, but it just doesn't seem to work! So I am trying to create a layout for my photo blog, with these standards: * images that I post auto-resize to squares [100*100] * when you click on the image it will show you the full sized version optional: * on the homepage you get the option to click on 'ANALOG' and 'DIGITAL' That's all! It can't be that hard right, am I over-seeing something? I want to use this layout on tumblr, blogger, wordpress, or any other free platform! I have a link right here to give you an idea of what I'm talking about: http://www.oscaralexander.com/lomo/lowlands-08-08/html/ [they aren't squares, I know] I am working on a website that deals with a form for an electronic check. I pretty much know how to do the code for getting the values, etc, I just do not know how to create the actual forms. I have to create the pages in Visual Studio 2008. Here is what I have to create: The first image explains what is supposed to be in each field of the form. The second image is what it is supposed to look like after the user inputs information to the form. And here is what the result is supposed to be after the user clicks the preview button: So like I said, I know how to do most of the coding, I just have no idea how to manipulate Visual Studio to make the forms look like, or at least similar to, the pictures I posted. I have experience in html and css and some in javascript. So that is not really the issue. I just do not know Visual Studio too well. It seems like there is something easy and/or obvious that I am missing. I played around with VS for several hours earlier and I could not make anything that looked similar the images. Any help is greatly appreciated. Well Iam a Owner of RsIllusion The next Biggest Rs Fansite/help Community Forum Iam trying to Host a Easy and Free Website that Allow me to Add Runescape Price Checker ( a tools that let people put in Rs item and it tell you how much it cost At the moment) like the one in Zybez.com and a Tools helping people Design a Rs Signature and Treasure Trail Locator I wonder if there any Html Code that is Fully Work For Runescape Price Checker ( like Zybez) Runescape Quest ( like Tip.it) Treasure Trail Locator Anything that Good for a Rs Help Site Thanks if you know please reply My webpage has become very long. The scrollbar goes on and on, which is perfectly OK. The problem is maintaining the code! In order to show all the data that is displayed, I need one .html page. There are about 10 distinctly different sections, each within their own <div> tag. Each section contains ~1000-10000 lines of code to show all the data. Yes, the page can take a while to load, depending on connection speed but this is how it must be...for now. So, my thought is that I would have something like a "div_section1name.txt" file. The contents of the file would start and end with <div></div> tags. The html document would use this file as if it were in the page, but NOT like a <frame>. I have external .css and .js files for this page. Can I create an external file (extension unknown) that contains only portions of the html, then linked to just like the .css file, for example? Is there a valid mime type for <link> to make this work? How else could I do this? BTW, I'm pretty sure I could not database this. Many, many thanks in advance! So I've got this .png file that's being updated and re-saved every second or so (its a graph of time vs temperature) and I'm trying to look at the damn thing on a browser. I've got the REFRESH thingy reloading the page every 5 seconds or so, but it'll only display the graph that it opens on (not the one that reflects the last couple of seconds). If I actually go and hit the reload button (I'm on Safari) the current graph'll come up, and then (this is weird) the next time the page refreshes it'll actually pull up that current graph, but all further refresh cycles don't do anything...what's going on here?

Hi How to add a website counter to my website. So that when ever a visitor visits the website I want the counter to increase say from 101 to 102 and then for a new visitor it should be 103 and then again for the next visitor 104 and so on..... I want to know the code. There are number of websites that are offering this but they put their advertisement which I don't want I have some links (in the header, the SUPPORTERS) to different websites, but when I click on them the address in the address bar does not change to the address of the website that I clicked. How do I make it show the address that I clicked on? Thanks. http://www.ac.wwu.edu/~fencing/ I am a total noob but volunteered to administrate the website, because there was no one else to do it. |
