HTML - Browse Button Validation

So I'd like to have a 160*600 box with hyperlinks displaying only a headlines I select. I would like the bottom of the box to have arrows for navigating between sections of links that fit in the box with a place to enter a page number in between them. I would like it to begin with displaying the most recently posted links starting on the last page number with that being the first page it displays.

I want the bottom of the box to include below the browsing chronological browsing feature an arrow facing left with the word "search" that would open a box with a place to type in text for it to search link headlines. At the bottom of the search box I would like an arrow facing down with the words "search by label". Yes, I would like to not only select a headline for each link but also categorically label them.

If I could also select images for it to automatically fill the empty space with when a new page number is started that would be great, even better if it selects ones that fill the most depending on how long the headlines are. If it repeated headlines in extra page space instead of showing images that would be cool too.

I'd also like it to automatically expand in height past 160*600 to make a new page number just for a headline that doesn't fit in 160*600.

I need this in HTML.

Hey guys, I'm pretty new to this whole html/web developing community and I got a few questions. My most important question is:

1. Would it be possible to have a button(like a type=file) that browses directories only, but instead of uploading them, just displaying the path as a text, so when my script picks it up, it just reads the text?
EDIT:
What I'm talking about is very similar to this thread, but i just want them to upload path so when the script emails the data, its just a link to the path on the local server




and my other question is:

2. If a user enters data in a text area, like i am writing in this, when my script picks it up, it does not seem to get the newlines at the end and just displays it all on one line, is there a way i can go about fixing it so that it gets passed(or even converted) to exactly how the user entered it?
EDIT: I've tried using wrap="physical" tag but I've been reading and some people say that it doesn't work..any suggestions?




Thanks a bunch for your help

Hi all,

How to change caption "Browse.." of file field?

I am creating a website that has a search button with an image. I would like to know if there is some simple code that I can include that would display the same basic image with a different color when the user mouses over the button.

Here is the code:

<FORM name="searchform"
onSubmit="return validateSearch();"
METHOD="POST"
ACTION="search_results_lt.asp">

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Search" VALUE="" SIZE="20" >&nbsp;

<INPUT TYPE=IMAGE SRC="images/search_button.gif" Name="SearchButton" Value="Submit">

</FORM>

Thanks for your help,

Can you please help me? I am making a website in MS SharePonit designer 2007. The site will be in 2 languages, Croatian and English. On the home page of the site I have put two radio buttons to give the choice to go to English version or Croatian version. And below those 2 radio buttons i want to put a button with text "ENTER SITE". But I don't know how to do this: If the Croatian radio button is checked, a click on the "ENTER SITE" must take you to the Croatian version of the site, and if English radio button is checked, click on "ENTER SITE" must take you to the English version. Can you please tell me how to do that?

I need html code of an ad with close button and I also need html code of floating ad with close button.If someone knows how to do it , please post html.

Validation - Just how far should you go?

I've sat and started the seemingly longwinded process of validation (xhtml & css) - once you get going it's not as bad as it looks!

My question is - just how far should you go? Site Check lists a million things to look at... just where do you stop? is W3C enough?

Also how much attention should you be paying to IE's 'Done but with errors on the page' - see attached picture

My validated xhtml

My validated CSS

My Page

I'm trying to validate my html (I've already validated my css), and I keep getting these two errors:

there is no attribute "target".

...ref="http://www.freewebs.com" target="_blank">freewebs</a>

AND:

document type does not allow element "hr" here; missing one of "object", "ins", "del", "map", "button" start-tag.

The Navigation: Yay! <br /><hr /><br />

I really don't understand the target="_blank" issue, and I don't know enough about hr's to complain about the second one, so does anyone care to explain?

seriously i thought i was pretty decent at html but ive barely done much in recent months/years.

http://validator.w3.org/#validate_by_uri

and then type:

http://www.numyspace.co.uk/~unn_s014557/index.htm

i have no idea why there are so many errors. i primarily used dreamweaver for the code so i thought there wouldnt be many problems.

Hi!

I really need some help trying to figure out why these are errors my website looks perfect, and how can i resolve those errors.
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.combbat21.com%2Fnoindex.php&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=In line&group=0

Thanks!!!

My web site main page is basically www.website.com/index.php. I am told that I can validate a php file. So I went to validator.w3.org, plugged in my url and got the error:

No DOCTYPE found, and unknown root element. Aborting validation.

So I added "<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN' 'http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd'>
<html xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml' xml:lang='en-us' lang='en-us'>"

to the top of my php file and got errors. In a php forum I was tolf to put the <session_start();> at the begining of the file. This took care of the php errors, but still the validator shows

No DOCTYPE found, and unknown root element. Aborting validation.

Can someone please help me with validation? Here is what the php file looks like now, thanks:

Code:

<session_start();> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN' 'http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd'>
<html xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml' xml:lang='en-us' lang='en-us'>
<?php

/**
*   @file: 			index.php
*   @author  
*   @description:	main page
*/


	include_once "db_config.php";
	include_once "classes/system.php";
	include_once "classes/main_menu.php";
	include_once "classes/tools.php";

	$command = tools::get_field_value("command");
	$param 	 = tools::get_field_value("param");

	$main_menu = new main_menu($system);

	$content	 = $main_menu->parse_command($command,$param);

	echo $content;
	?>

I am doing a slow process after each section I add make sure it validates, however despite all that it claims

Sorry, I am unable to validate this document because its content type is application/octet-stream, which is not currently supported by this service.

The Content-Type header is sent by your web server (or web browser if you use the file upload interface) and depends on its configuration. Commonly, web servers will have a mapping of filename extensions (such as ".html") to MIME Content-Type values (such as text/html).

That you received this message can mean that your server is not configured correctly, that your file does not have the correct filename extension, or that you are attempting to validate a file type that we do not support yet. In the latter case you should let us know that you need us to support that content type (please include all relevant details, including the URL to the standards document defining the content type) using the instructions on the Feedback Page.


However my code shows

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
	<meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
	<meta name="author" content="Mordecai" />

	<title>Rigganmore - Land of a Thousand Dreams</title>
	<meta name="author" content="Mordecai" />
	<title>Rigganmore - Land of a Thousand Dreams</title>
	<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheet/general.css" />
	<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheet/default.css" />
</head>
<body>
	<div id="wrapper">
		<div id="header">
		
		
		</div>
	</div>
</body>
</html>

Note: the Mime shows text/html not "application/octet-stream" as it claims and charset is there also.

Please can someone help me?

Hello,
I am finally getting around the topping off the cake if you will and validating my site. I am having trouble understanding some of the validation errors. What I'll do is link you to the validation and then tell you which ones I am having trouble understanding. http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.scubatoo.net%2Findex.php&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inlin e&group=0 And the ones I am having trouble with and can't quite figure out how to fix are,

Actually on second thought, I don't quite understand a majority of them. Is there a way I can refrence these problems on a website?

Thanks,

Ryan
