HTML - Detecting Adobe Reader On Client Computer
I've got a website under construction at www.banffridgeestates.com. On the design plans page (www.banffridgeestates.com/design_plans.htm), I've got 9 thumbs for the user to click on and a PDF file opens in Adobe Reader. But just in case the user doesn't have Adobe Reader or some other PDF viewing application, is there a way for me to program the link so that it detects whether the user has such an application, and to open a JPEG if he doesn't have one?

As some of you may or may not know I'm still fairly new in web designing. Recently I started making a small website for my friend who wanted a homepage for his small gaming community. While making this webpage I kept checking the validators (for css and markup) and it all came up fine. I read the sticky on validators and since I have no frames or anything my best bet was to use the (x)html transitional one: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> Now as i stated before everything was coming up validated until I added a javascript code from rssfeedreader.com. I wanted to display some "latest news" from the news blog I set up and I don't know much about stylizing and displaying rss (even after reading a few pages) so i used that website. After I added it in it came up with a bunch of errors (mostly the ampersand error and the "language=javascript" error). I wanted to know if there was a possible way to fix this? I tried changing the "language=javascript" part into "type=javascript" but the feed stops displaying if i do that.. Anyone know of an inexpensive and SEO friendly way to display book pages in an online html reader? I am developing a bookstore website where people can read the entire book online before buying, and the option of using an online flash-based PDF reader doesn't work for SEO. In the html format, the books would have to be displayed page by page so people couldn't steal and distribute the entire book easily. Is the only way to do this by programming every page or is there a program, script or compiler that is good for SEO and will do the job cheaply? There are many online libraries that have hundreds of thousands of pages readable online, so how do they do it cheaply? Thanks. What is the best or rather easiest way to learn how to use Photoshop?

My current Major is Integrative Media which web design falls under but none of my professors know anything about coding. I've probaly wasted 10 hours alone on trying to center the page with the drop down menu's. I am searching for an experienced person in Adobe, HTML and a few other codes to help me(Small reward might be given out ^_^). I've spent like 50 hours on this and gotten nowhere. I've searched the internet indepth for answers but I've had 0 success. Here are the lists of problems I have. I made drop down menus in Fireworks. This has been effecting how I can center my whole webpage. <Div Takes aren't working> Ive trade Align="center" in the DIV tag. Styles Margin Left Auto and Margin Right Auto didn't work. Even if I could center the page it wouldn't help cause I don't know how to center the JSS file with the page. I'm trying to find an easy way to move around flash tables. I don't wanna use padding(for reasons I can explain). The only way I've seen is to cut your webpage up in photoshop and leave spaces for the Tables. I am wondering if there are any other ways. I'm also trying to make news bars that Call titles from my sites forum. 0 Idea how to do this. I have more questions but don't feel like ranting. If an experienced web designer could help me I would greatly appreciate it. Please be good with Adobe Products and HTML thanks Hi all. I'm new here and relatively new to web design and am now looking to take my skills onto a new level. As a budding new web designer, I'm now considering which software is best. My assumption was that I'd have to go with Adobe. However, after reading a few comments on here, there are some who consider it to be too expensive given that there are other options out there which could also be better. I was hoping for advice from experienced people who could let me know if you think Adobe is the way to go or recommend any other software. Thank you and grateful in advance As you know, people use adobe dreamweaver to create their websites from scratch or editing. The problem is in my situation is that when I put in a code in the CODE and it comes out in the DESIGN, it's screwed up. But when I view it in IE or FF, it's how I want it. That being said, I have to deal with dreamweaver not looking what I'm looking for but when I view it in IE or FF, it's how I want it. Help? Hello there, I am wondering if there is a free alternative to Adobe InContext Editing out there. One that people have had experience with and believe to be credible. I would really appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction. Thanks for your time. How do I get rid of my automatic golive meta description and write my own?
