HTML - Simple Question About Forms
I have never designed a form before, I need help with how to get whatever the user submits to display. I want the text that is typed in the "comment box" to be sent to the current page. In other words I want it to work like ebay or amazon where other people can read feedback and comments from others. This is the code I have so far.
<html> <body> <form> First Name: <input type ="text" name="firstname"/> <br/> Last Name: <input type ="text" name="lastname"/> <br/> <br/> Comments orSuggestions: <br/> <textarea rows="10" cols="50"> </textarea> </form> </body> </html> Similar TutorialsI am attempting to create a rather large form for users to fill out. When doing this does each text box have to have it's own form or should there only be 1 form with all the elements in it? Sorry for the basic question. Here is the example of my code: Code: <table width="200" border="1" bordercolor="#000000">
<caption>
Account Information
</caption>
<tr>
<td><form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">
<label>First Name
<input type="text" name="setup" id="setup" />
</label>
</form>
</td>
<td><form id="form2" name="form2" method="post" action="">
<label>Last Name
<input type="text" name="setup2" id="setup2" />
</label>
</form>
</td>
<td><form id="form3" name="form3" method="post" action="">
<label>Address
<input type="text" name="setup3" id="setup3" />
</label>
</form>
</td>
<td><form id="form4" name="form4" method="post" action="">
<label>Zip Code
<input type="text" name="setup4" id="setup4" />
</label>
</form>
</td>
</tr>
This is just a snippet of the code. Should I just have one form tag that is around all the text boxes? Thanks in advance, Scott Hi. I'm extremely new to html (began learning two days ago) and I'm designing a really basic site for an acquaintance of mine. The purpose of this site will be to promote/encourage people to join and or donate to a research project. So here's my question: What I would really like to do is have a form on the site with fields for first and last name, address, and e-mail, and make it so that when someone submits this information, an e-mail is automatically dispatched, and a counter on the site is moved up a notch. What's the best way of going about this? Like I said, I've been at this a very short period and I only know basic html stuff. Thanks a lot in advance for your help. Trying to do something that seem like it should be a piece of cake... I have a website with 6 or so password protected directories for clients. I want to create a one login page for all of them. So UN=bob and PW=1234, would direct to mydomain.com/bob and automatically login. I've never used forms before but it seems like I should be able to grab a "username" variable and a "password" variable from input boxes and then have a "submit" button that goes to http://username:password@mydomain.com/username All without using a database or a server side script. Yes? No? I have both <div id="images"></div> and <form> on the right column of my page. I want to overlap the two of them, because the form is hidden so that when the viewer clicks on "contact us" the images div will disappear then the form appears, through behaviors. But the form is below the images div tag, so when I click on contact us, the images disappear, but the form appears on the bottom of the image div tag, its suppose to take the place of the images div tag instead. _________ hey all, Thanks for looking at my issue, what i am trying to do is as follows! On my page http://cre8tivepixels.com/Quote%20form.html I have a quote form up the top, that works fine, i then added a section where models could send me three photos, when you click on these tabs it loads the photo up, but all i get is an email with the photo names but NO photos? What do i have to put in my script to make it so i recieve there jpegs, and not just the name of the file? Can this even be achieved? Basically i want the photos that a model submits to be delivered in my email address the same as my Quote Form above? Hope that makes sence? Cheers Dan simple question! okay hey guys first time post for me as im banging my head against a wall here. I'm not at all good at html but im changing something on my WoW guilds website. now if you visit it you can see the Nav crumb is aligned to the left, i want it to be centered but everything i have tired fails! www.accidentguild.com heres the code im using at the moment, what would i need to make it center?

Hi, I'll go straight to the point. my problem is that I need a text box to have a scroll bar and a fixed size, preferably in a "div" layer. On a more complicated note, I would really like my website not to refresh itself when you click on a menu button. The changing information should be all in the same layer. And, last but not least, and even more complicated, Is there any methods to keep the website updating from being super complicated, as in "I write stuff in any program or text box, and this text goes in that box", Blog or loggin style. Help is greatly appreciated. Thanks. I feel really dumb asking so elementary a question, but ya' gotta start somewhere. I'm trying to format a blog site for my coworkers. It's been a few years since I have done any web work. Anyway, I wrote up a very simple little HTML doc, but when I open it in my browsers, I just see code. The code is below. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head><title>BSGoad's Blog</title></head> <h2>Thoughts on the Day</h2> <body> <p align="center">Walking down the street today I met a man selling the <i>Spare Change</i> newspaper. I gave him a couple of bucks for a paper and, unprompted, he proceeded to tell me all that had happened with him in the past week. He had spent some time in New York with an old friend (maybe a relative, I'm not entirely sure), and had just returned to Boston. I was struck the immediacy of his comfort with me. He had nothing to hide. He had nothing of which to be ashamed. He just wanted someone with whom to share, who would listen. <br> Unfortunately, I was on the phone with my mom. I was hardly attentive. Not impolite, just distracted. Later I felt bad. I could have called mom back. I could talk with her anytime. instead I turned my ear back to my phone and bade the man a good day. I was reminded today of the prayer of St. Ignatius in dedication of the day:</p> <blockquote align="center"> Father, I dedicate this new day to you;<br> as I go about my work.<br> I ask you to bless those with whom I come in contact.<br> <p> Lord, I pray for all men and women<br> who work to earn their living;<br> give them satisfaction in what they do.<br> <p> Spirit of God,<br> comfort the unemployed and their families;<br> they are your children and my brothers and sisters.<br> I ask you to help them find work soon.<br> <p> - St. Ignatius Loyola </blockquote> </body> </html> There ya' go. What'm I doing wrong? Brandon Very simple question here. I'm pretty inexperienced with html, past the basics. I have copied the source code of a webpage into a text file and alltered it. I would like to open the file in Firefox and view this as it would appear as a web page. How would this be done? I have tried opening it as an html file, but the text only appears as the source code. Hi, When writing something on the internet, say a paragraph that has a URL in the middle of the paragraph, can the URL be hidden until someone clicks on it? How does one do that. Simple html, no java please. Thanks. goodness, been a couple months since ive done html, but im back and I got a question... So how do you put text in an image because I have a background color, and I have an image that's a different color, but I want to put text in the image, so how do i do that??? Thx I am trying to get the copyright symbol into my web pages. It works fine in the HTML program but in firefox it becomes a '?' and in ie it becomes a square. The method I tried was using '©'. Can anyone help me out? First is i'm new at this, not doing this for fun am a college student studying computer and this is my project (to make a site) i know its bad to rely on someone but I've given up, i tried almost everything the professor thought me. So here's my question I have table of thumbnail images and i want to put a message (using font) on the left side of the thumbnail image table i want it aligned but the message is pushing the table down i want them to be aligned Tried using <left></left> on the message and <right></right> on the thumbnail Here's my page http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/4396/54815352.jpg Here's my code Quote: <center> <font color="EEEEEE" size="6" face="Tempus Sans ITC">Mythological Gods and Goddesses</font> </center> <font> The Olympian gods were the main deities in Ancient Greece.

I have been learning HTML and other web languages for a couple weeks now and one thing is bothering me. I noticed that sometimes when I am reading tutorials and such they put in a /> instead of just a > . So my question is why do I need a / in front of a > sometimes and sometimes I just put a >. I hope my question is clear Hi. In a table data I have four lines of text each line separated by a <br> The text are different font sizes. The issue I am having is that the lines have space between them above and below. How do I get the lines of text closer together using simple html? text line 1 | (this space) | text line 2 Hello all, I Just have a basic question here, it goes like this, when i make HTML Tables, how do i make it so that when i put stuff in a column, the column beside it doesn't stretch? For example take this: HTML Code: <table border="1"> <tr> <td>row 1, cell 1</td> <td>row 1, cell 2</td> </tr> <tr> <td>row 2, cell 1</td> <td></td> </tr> </table> Then if i change this: HTML Code: <td>row 2, cell 1</td> <td>fff<br> ffff<br></td> Then "row 2 cell 1" would have also gone down 2 lines, you with me? Basically what i am trying to say is, how do i add text to a column without the corresponding column beside it stretching? I Want them to be independent of one another. Thanks. I've decided to make a personal photography portfolio on my computer, and have thought that the best way to do this would be HTML. My problem: See the above image? The items in red circles are just copied and pasted from the original in the top-left. What I want to know is how do I actually get them there in HTML? I think it's something to do with tables, but as I'm practically brand new to HTML I'm not sure. I have a ZIP file below with all the necessary files, just unzip the online folder and edit the 'index.htm' file if you want to do it all yourself for me. Otherwise, you can use it to have a look at the coding I've used (partly taken from a free HTML template website, I admit ). Thanks very much in advance for help. Ok so this is simple and i want to know if anyone could do it or can show me how... So this is what we are working with. http://thequestways.com/blog.htm Thats plain but I want to know if i can make some changes. I want a fixed navbar, and the iframe the main scroll. These page is set up with tables if that helps. Anything would help, links, tips, ANYTHING. |
