HTML - Help Me With My Dictionary Like Site Please
Hi,
I'm somewhat new to html but am relatively familiar with dreamweaver. So far I have only made straightforward html pages with no CSS but Im a fast learner. Anyways I am creating a dictionary-like site which uses a similar concept to Urbandictionary.com: user submitted content, that I hope I could just approve and add to a folder, and not have to manually change each one. I was wondering how best to do the definitions so that they can be searchable, and just show up on the formatted page. Does each definition have to be a separate html file? should I use php or something else? I know that each definition is essentially just a link and some text as well as some keywords... Once I know which would be best to use I'm sure I can figure out how to implement it, I'm just not sure how this sort of site is created.. Similar TutorialsI am wondering if it is possible to create an INDEX.HTML to redirect to another website? I would like it to display the redirected site, but if possible keep to the original address.. e.g. A site named www.mysite.com, with an INDEX.HTML to redirect to www.othersite.com, which displays OTHERSITE with www.mysite.com in the address bar. Hope I explained ok, any responce would be much appricated! Thanks! Hi I am currently working on a site on webnode. I am trying to make a site where users can submit game links that they like so it will be like a compilation of user contributed link data system. I just want them to be able to post website links that show up on my site automatically. I also need this to be alphabetized. So basically every letter will have a submit option where they can submit the name and link of this game they are trying to share. I pretty much need an embedded code to use on this site that will do this. Can anyone help me with this? I will offer a little bit of money if necessary! Hi, Please help. I'm new to web design and have kinda cobbled my site together from various templates, etc. Problem is my site appears in Firefox, but comes up blank in IE and Safari. I'm pretty sure it's something stupid I've missed. The url is http://artheat.net Could anyone give me some advice?

First of all, my website is http://explosions.us.to Right now, whenever you click on something from the "nav" the links stay in the same place like they should.

Hey guys, I have designed my site using firefox as my default browser. My site looks exactly as I want in all of the following; Firefox, Chrome and Safari but IE 8 shifts my navigation links. My site: http://for-rent-nerja.co.uk The code that positions the js: http://www.for-rent-nerja.co.uk/hvmenu/exmplmenu_var.js this part positions left ' var StartLeft=-8; ' - if I set that to ' var StartLeft=0; ' that aligns it in IE8 but knocks it out of line in the other 3. HELP I've tried all but everything and I can find no way to get it to align in all! Thanks guys! Jamie the site http://www.googtwo.tk (my site) is attempting to put a garfield comic for the day by an iframe. if you look at the code, you'll see some irrelavent code, ignore it. but the iframe, isn't goign to the size i want it to, and therefore you can't see the comic. ??? and when i go on google and put the name of my site in i get this message.. Quote: Temporary holding page. This domain has been registered by registron.co.uk on behalf of a client. where as other sites have say for example Quote: The local version of this pre-eminent search engine, offering UK-specific pages as well as world results. www.google.co.uk/ - 4k im holding out to unveil my page Thanks Hi well i am finally getting read to put my site together this weekend and i just have a few questions. my site has been designed by a designer who has mocked it up in photoshop, illustrator etc. so the question that i have is how do i translate that into HTML? here are a few screen shots of what my site will look like. also i'll be taking them down in a couple of days. so here they are... Thanks does anyone knows a code or how to put a log in to a site? like i want before going in the site, before anything comes up in the screen a box with a log in.. could someone explain me hi there www.brewrecords.net everyone can see my site but me! all i can see is 'this domain has just been registered' i delete my cookies and cache in internet explorer, still nothing. can anyone shed some light on this? thanks.

Hi there all, this looks like a great place to get answers. I'm trying to make a site which is "centered" but I need to add a vertical scrolling text box on top of one of the graphics. You can see what I mean at Http://www.Senor-Dicks.co.uk/tester.html I can get the box up but it has an absolute position and won't stay in the right place. I'm using Dreamweaver and any help would be appreciated. It's been driving me nuts for about 3 weeks now. Thanks in advance. Hello there. I am new to this forum. I used to be big into HTML, etc, got busy for a couple years you can say, and well, now I am back and lost in some ways! With that said, I hope someone here can assist me for what I am after. I am making a site for a photographer friend of mine. Here is it so far ... not yet done ... http://starverse.ca/sam/index2.html I want to make it so when you say update the photo area EX: http://starverse.ca/sam/center.html it will ONLY update that and I won't have to do anything to all the other items on the left/rights sites. I guess like a site within a site. I have been reading about using codes, such as : <!--#include virtual="path to file/include-file.html" --> <div id="nav"> <a href="...">...</a> ... </div> <? require("/path/to/file.html"); ?> etc. Nothing seems to work on my site. What in the wide world of sports am I doing wrong??? Howdie! I created my first homepage - real easy. What are the next steps? I cant understand why people make such a big deal about it. I found it easy. Here it is http://supanerd.blog.homepagenow.com/ Now I want to do one of those great moving cursors with my name rotating around. How can I fix this up?
