HTML - Need Help With Linking Index.html Files
Hello,
I have the page "index.html" in my root folder, as well as another "index.html" page in a subdirectory. I feel like a moron for not being able to figure this out on my own, but here goes: How do I create a link from my subdirectory index.html page to the one in my root folder? Any help is much appreciated. Similar TutorialsHi, I was wondering how i can link to my script file instead of having it stored in the head. At the moment i am only using javascript and i dont like it in the head because it looks messy. My site has 2 columns and the script simply makes sure colum 1 and column 2 always have the same height to retain the layout because i'm using background images. I have saved the script in as scripts.js and it looks like this. Code: function fixH(one,two) {
if (document.getElementById(one)) {
var lh=document.getElementById(one).offsetHeight;
var rh=document.getElementById(two).offsetHeight;
var nh = Math.max(lh, rh);
document.getElementById(one).style.height=nh+"px";
document.getElementById(two).style.height=nh+"px";
}
}
window.onload=function(){
fixH('column1','column2');
}
Ok now back in my html head where i would usually put the actual script i have put: Code: <script src="scripts.js" type="text/JavaScript"></script> I was hoping this would work but it doesn't seem to be working. When i preview the page locally in IE6 it pops up to say something has been blocked which i guess is the javasript. Maybe i need to upload to web server and test but wanted to post here to see if i did it correct in the first place. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Rick Hello, I'm trying to create a little page that auto updates itself whenever new files are added. The system is layered such that I have the top level index.html file, then in the same directory, I can add new folders that contain other index.html files. What I want to do is have the top level index.html file pick up every sub directory, grab the name from the directory, and then create a link to that directory's index.html file and then display it in the top level index.html file. So what I have right now is this: HTML Code: <body> <a href="myFirstDirectory/index.html">myFirstDirectory.html</a> </body> There is other stuff, but this is the part I need help with. As you can see, I also want the name that is displayed to be the same name as the directory. I do not know how to automate this if I have other folders in there like directory2, directory3, etc. Can anyone show me an example of how to do this or walk me through it? Thanks in advance. Open Mozilla Firefox and go to this site: http://www.mm-theory.com Scroll down a bit until you see a table titled "Download PDFs" on the left-hand side. Click any one of them. Does anything happen, or do you get what I get: a blank window? Explorer doesn't seem to have this problem. I click on any of the links, I get the option to either open the PDF file in the browser or download it. If I choose to open in the browser, it does just that. Why would it not do the same in Firefox? The code for the links are as follows: Code: ... <tr><td class="PDFs"><a class="PDFs" href="../PDFs/Website Introduction.pdf">Website Introduction</a></td></tr> <tr><td class="PDFs"><a class="PDFs" href="../PDFs/Preliminary Concepts.pdf">Preliminary Concepts</a></td></tr> ... Thanks for any forthcoming help. I'm currently trying to make a website that uses paypal. Here's what I have so far. 1 - User Clicks "buy now" button 2- User is redirected to paypal 3-User completes payment 4- User is SUPPOSED to be redirected to my site. Since I am hoping to test this page offline, I have my site in a local file. I need to use the return command on the "buy now" button so that paypal returns the user to my site, however, since I am just testing (using paypal's sandbox) I want it to return me to a local file on my hard drive. Apparently Firefox has a security feature that will not allow you to link to local files, but I was hoping to bypass this feature. Is there anyway I can do this? I have firefox 2.0. Thanks! I use a program (Guardian) to send me notifications when an error occurs on my site (404, 403 etc.) These notices contain the URL causing the error and the referring URL. Lately I have been getting numerous notifications with URLs to directories without index files (On a side note, these URLs also contain within them, urls to other sites. I assume this is some spammer technique and I am not too concerned about this in this post but if someone can shed some light on how/why they (the spammers) do this I would appreciate it.) My purpose in posting here is to find out about the use of index files in directories. I have read that this is a good idea, but I have yet to hear why except that in case someone navigates to the URL of the directory rather than the actual page URL, then they will not get a 403 error message, but this seems like a rather weak reason to me. Is there another reason? SEO reason? Technical reason? If I find good reason to do this, is it enough to just put a blank index file in each directory? If so why? What purpose does it serve (aside from thwarting the spammers doing what I described above.) Thanks in advance for your help. OK it said be specific so here it is. I am a first time html'er infact I am just now in an html/css class, the downside is my honors organization wanted a website this week. I was able to build something novice like @ http://www.asu-bap.com what I noticed is when I use images or a css stylesheet on the index page everything works grandiose. However, when I reference the same style sheet on other pages such as join.html or announcements.html it would not use the style sheet. I got really irritated and just embedded the css into each page individually. Think that my code was just that bad and i had nowhere to go for help. Then... I tried to do an image on my calendar.html, and i had the same issue... I even tried (as I had with the css file) to create a brand new directory called calendar and putting the img in there. To no avail, it still would not pull up the image. I am like 90% sure my code is right for the image so then I found this website and decided to try to get help here. Here is my code for the calendar (its a word doc converted I just added links and img), I have everything uploaded to root directory. Please help. And if you fix what could have been my css referencing issue, I wills end you cookies! Code: <STYLE TYPE="text/css" MEDIA=screen>

I finally figured out how to add text to my index and now I have another question. In my website template There is Heading 1 and a Heading 2 so my question is how do I delete any sections or headings that I don't need to make it go away on my home page. There is so much and I don't think I need all of it..... Thanks in advance First off, I would classify myself as having a basic working knowledge of HTML, but I'm far from experienced. I use Expressions (I know, first mistake), and do at least 50% of the work in the code view window. I'm having a problem right now linking a PPS document. I made the PPT and saved it as a PPS, and linked it using <a href="images/anamaited.pps" target="_blank"> When I preview the website on my computer and click the link the document opens in a new explorer window as a PPS, but when I publish the site and click the link it downloads the document and opens PPT. I don't want visitors opening my presentation in PPT, is there anyway to have the pps display in a browser window or do I have to convert the PPS into flash? If I need to display it as a different file type, I need to do it for free, any suggestions? -edit- wanted to clairfy when I click the link on the live site, it actually opens MS PowerPoint, not a new browser window as the tag specifies. I am currently working on a webpage that will primarily be viewed on an Ipad. I am currently linking images with the following code. <a href="images/why/photo_large.jpg"><img src="images/photo_thumb.jpg" width="139" height="92" border="0" /></a> This links the tumbnails to a larger image in the same window. Currently the only way to go back to the original page is to click the back arrow in the corner of the image. Is there someway to make it so the new image is a back arrow? I would like the user to be able to click anywhere on the new image and it take them back to the original page. If this is possible any help you guys can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Luke I guess the first thing to do is give you a link to my site: http://theinstinct.net. Now if you notice, on the left hand side we have a Navigation Bar and a few other small things. Lately we've (myself and a friend work on the site) been editing and updating it a lot and we realized that we'd have to make the same changes on every single page. So my question for you is, is there a way to execute a separate HTML file inside another? Like you can link to a CSS file or to a JavaScript file, can you do that with an HTML file? Thanks for the help! I am fairly new to HTML and servers and such. I have a ftp server hosting my website which is very basic, the link is ftp.Marmatote.hostchick.co.uk/public_html/index.html That works, but im uploading another page, links.html and i do not know understand how to link my first index page to my links.html page. Do i have to name it something certain? or do i have to upload it somewhere certain or what? Code: <a href="marmatote.hostchick.co.uk/public_html/Links.html">Links</a> i have no idea. Please help, additional information can be supplied on request. display html code without creating an actual link? I am writing an instruction manual an am having problems showing the html code without it becoming a link. I am still new to the web page world, but the website I originally created (in japanese) was passed on to a programmer. He did a lot of "upgrades" to the site so he says, but he left. Now I am in charge again of re-modeling the site. The problem is I am trying to figure out why there are so many dead links. I have looked up and down the server, but can't find anything. Ok before I confuse anyone else here is what I am talking about. For example this page that I originally made : Code: http://www.discoveryfirm.com/tokushu/index.html cannot be found but if I take of the end: http://www.discoveryfirm.com/tokushu/ the page is there. Now I am trying to fix a lot of dead links, but I cannot figure out what the programmer did to the site. I am still new to all the high-tech features in the web world. Could somebody please explain. i just started working on addicted2ally.com, and for some reason, my index.html is showing the text of the html instead of well, doing it lol helppp!? Do possible somehow open folder/archive were is a index.html. I wan't to run auto index.html or any default .html .php... I want open folder and browse from files. ??? Does anyone know how to use z-index? I would like to know where to use it! Is it in the css file or in the html page? If anyone as any examples that would be great.

I want to edit and add my text by default... Sorry for maybe bad english ;/ I have a web page, index.html. In IE it renders as I expect in terms of size of elements. It renders elements smaller in Firefox if called index.html but If I rename it to index 2.html it renders correctly in firefox.
