HTML - Edit Is Defaulted To Word Instead Of Notepad

removed the message as help is no longer available

I've been writing all of my HTML in notepad since I started, and Id really like to keep it that way, but the browser seems to treat line breaks (in notepad) between elements as a space character in certain instances.

For example, say I have

HTML Code:

<img1><img2>
<img3>
<img4>

in the browser, that will render every image on the same line, but with a physical white space between img2, img3, and img 4

example:
[1][2] [3] [4]

in the past ive just sucked it up and put everything on the same line, but in larger projects that gets messy very quickly...

any input that i'snt "use something better" is appreciated, thanks.

Good day guy's.

Im very new to html programming and scripting, but I was wondering if it would be possabe to insurt a dynamic label field in you body where to content must be fetch from a notepad or wordpad ( /docs/someting.txt )

Thanks

Hi,

I've spend today (9am yesterday till 3am... now) trying to learn my way through HTML from pretty much scratch!

I've been helping out at a Drum Shop who've just got a website made, and they've been offered the chance to do a free e-mail campaign to local students. The shop has been open 40 years, and both the staff have been there since it opened, so entering the 20th century with a website is a major achievement!

Anyway, I've been trying to compose the e-mail in html, and I think I've got something that'll work... but as I'm VERY new to all this I'm worried about whether it'll work in different browsers etc and, well... at all really!

I've attached the txt of the HTML so far.... I've no editor etc, so been using notepad... sorry if it's awkward to read etc.

I'm really just hoping someone will take pity on my poor fried brain and have a look at the page / txt and maybe let me know if there's something wrong with it and, if you're feeling generous, offer some tips and advice on changes... unfortunately, my first ever HTML e-mail will be going to 20,000 people, so I'm rather nervous about getting it right!

Thanks in advance and eh, thanks for the forum... it's been really rather useful whenever I've been stuck / made a mistake!

Steve

PS: The images I'm using at the moment aren't quite right, can't fix them till I get back to work tomorrow morning!

Ok I'm still really new to HTML with no bad habits & would like to use a program that is really easy to use & geared toward function-ability.

I've been using notepad for my HTML

I would prefer to steer away from DreamWeaver as I dont plan on using a WYSIWYG

So what are my other options for great programs to write HTML in?

Thanks

Hi everyone,

I am having a very difficult time trying to locate what I am looking for as I have no idea what it could be called.

Essentially I am looking to add a notepad to my website. It is a logged in portion so only a few people would have access to it.

My first idea was to add a comment box style feature but with that, every time someone writes something, it creates a new "post". I am looking to have a shared text area that everyone can add text to and remove.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Hello all, I'm learning so much studying on a daily basis with html, that I have been making considerable progress, however, if you all could help me "lock" this div layer that I have off to the right of the page from moving that would be grand.

You see all I really want on the site is to have content in the middle move as I update and add to it. However when I subtract content or add more content in the middle div box. the right side box will move up or down depending on whether I have added or subtracted content.

If you visit http://www.trillionaireme.com that is how I want the site to show on all pages when a link is clicked, however when you click on the "How to Get Started" link http://www.trillionaireme.com/howtogetstarted.html, because I have less content in the middle the right div box moves up. I would like it locked and positioned just as it is displayed on the main page http://www.trillionaireme.com

Thank you

I am trying to help a friend with his website after his admin left. The site was set up years ago and was never finished. He had a simple web form that would send an email using the code below. The previous guy had the output going to himself and then he would fwd to the sites owner. Strange but not sure why. I just went in to edit the email address, but now I get a "The requested URL /_derived/nortbots.htm was not found on this server." after hitting submit.

I googled the error and the only thing I can find is that possibly the original page was created in Frontpage and after opening the file in Notepad++ the file lost some FP attribute.

Any ideas what I should try?

Thanks

I have gotten a free template of the internet. And i have know i dea how to edit the content like the bars text and everything in it. I dont have photoshop and was wondering how iam supposed to do this.

Hello, I was wondering how to do to put a background that fits with the screen.
I like code, I simply put background = "image.jpg"

thank you

i know it a n00b question probably answered 1000times but i have search google and cant find any helpful sources.

iv been doing some HTML at collage
and we are using IE 1 and you can just click on view source and then edit the code
in notepad and it edits the page.

but at home i have the latest FF and GC and when ever i open view source it just shows the source and ii cant edit it.

So whats the best thing to do/use?

Hey all.
First post here, but I've been around for a few weeks, just not registered.

Actually I have a problem. I am using Dreamweaver to make a website.
In the News page, I put a scrolling textbox using the div tags and it all worked pretty well, but now I would like to edit that textbox, customize the look of it.

I've seen it done in other sites, but I'm not sure its HTML. Actually what I want to do is change the BG color, change the color and style of the scoll bar (For example a red dot instead of the original blue/grey bar, if its possible). I know I've seen on another site, someone changed the bar, he made it more square and changed the color or opacity, kindda what I want to do. If you have a page will all the codes, which is probably hard to find, that would be the best

Also, I tried adding a border with <div style="overflow=auto [etc] border=3px solid" but it didnt change a thing. Can anyone help me with those problems please?
Thanks

PS: Ill try adding the full code later, but its home and Im at school. Can anyone tell me how to do the thing in which you add the code which looks different from the rest of the text?
