Like the ones on this site. http://www.newvolleyball.com/news.php Any help will be appreciated. Thanks Kris I'm trying to create a page where I can submit a form and have it appear on my home page, similar to a blog. I'm trying to keep this simple, just one page to type things, and have it appear on another page. This is for my band's website and I need a simple way for all of us to post to our news section on the home page. (I've tried to use wordpress, blogger, etc. I don't think trying to post blogs on a blogging site and have it transfer to my site is going to work. I've had to many problems getting it to work.) Hi peeps, I apologise if this is in the wrong section, if so, please move to appropriate category. I have a basic understanding of HTML coding and I am attempting to learn new skills and tricks to help me in my development. I am currently in the process of developing a new site for myself and on this site I will have a news page, which I update weekly with news from the industry. I was wondering what is the best way of going about new news articles (written by myself, not taken from external sources) and also how to automatically update the 'news' snippet on the homepage when I add a new news article? Any advice or pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks hi. first thread on this forum so be nice to me aight? anyways, im working on a website, and ive got a small question for ya. Ive got my site set up with buttons and flashy graphics made in photoshop, but on my Index site i want to have a news window in the center of the screen. ive poked around the source code of various sites with the thing i want (like www.mordi.net, norwegian site) and ive figured out how it works and how i edit it. i just need to know how i make it stick to that little area of my screen ive designated for it. (ive sliced up the area i want it to use in photoshop, like i did with my buttons) if ive been unclear on anything or you want any other information, please speak up. thanks for your time I have icons I made that I want to use for the nav bar, and I made a background image that I want to use, but I cant get it up properly. How do I make my nav bar scrollable and link it to other pages, and create those pages o.0? So far the code looks like this: <!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> <title>Saad Ismail Digital Artist</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css"/> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <style type="text/css"> body { background-image: url(homepage.gif); } </style> </head> <body <h1 align="center"> </h1> <h1 align="center">Saad</h1> <p align="center">Digital Artist</p> <p align="center"> </p> <p align="center"> </p> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="inner"> <div id="header"> </div> <div id="navbar"> <ul id="nav"> <li> <div align="center"><a id="nav1" href="../website/About me.html">About me</a> <a id="nav2" href="../website/Illustrations.html">Illustrations</a> <a id="nav3"href="../website/Videos.html">videos</a> <a id="nav4"href="../website/Animation.html">Animation</a> <a id="nav5"href="../website/Photography.html">Photography</a></div> </li> </ul> </div> <div id="content"></div> </div> </div> </body> </html> </body> </html> Hello I'm trying to create a page, when its someone's first time opening the web site they get asked if they are under 18 or not and if they are over 18 and enter the site, and the next time they come to the site, it would by pass the age page. Is there anything that I can read that would help me create it? Please give me any suggestion that you have. Thank You Can somebody give me a code for close to the code on http://www.psp-hacks.com/ for news, and people leaving comments! Thanks in advance ps: my site is http://www1.webng.com/steer/index.htm and you see the background... I drew those two separator lines (they are not straight) is there any other way to do it? Here is the fresh background image a guy i know who runs a website had archieved news on his website without cutenews can someone please tell me the code for this...i cannot get my cutenews to work for some strange reason...thank alot everyone I want to set up a news section on my website from my forums. Like I have an announcement section that I wanted to link to. How do I do that. Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this. I want to be able to generate a RSS news feed from my website with latest news etc, but I really haven't a clue where to start. Would anyone of the experts on this forum be able to advise me of where to start and what is the best way to go about it? I hope you can help. Thanks Simon Hi there. I currently use a news feed widget from BlastCasta.com on a website for a leading gymnast, however i notice sometimes the news feed covers stories about someone with the same name (ie, they are not relevent to the gymnast at all!) Is there any way at all of using something else/something better? I am completely ignorant when it comes to News feeds/widgets and how to implement them. Any advice would be fantastic. See the current news feed page at http://www.bethtweddle.com/news.html How would I get a scrolling news bar in my webpage? I am extremely new, so please post code. Thanks Can someone help me create a scrolling news ticker in HTML code? I want to put rss feed into this scrolling ticker from an rss feed like yahoo news etc. It would be greatly appreciated if someone can help or give me the code. Ill be glad to put your name in the code. THanks. Ok so Im not sure what exactly what its called but I was wondering where I could get the code that would allow me to make my own news marque/feed/slideshow..thing An example of what Im talking about can be found on the yahoo.com main page...right in the middle of the page where it says TODAY How would I go about making one of those that I can put my own news articles in? Does is there an html gen for this? Thanks! Is there a plugin or anything that would allow me to setup specific sections of a website where certain users can update with news? I hope I'm being clear, but this is what I want to do: There's a news section of my page, and currently I'm working with people who don't know a lick of HTML. They want to be able to add news articles without having to go through me. Is there a service or plugin or anything that will allow this to happen? Thanks in advance for any help! Hi all, Just signed up. I dabble occasionally with coding and would appreciate your help on a slight problem. I'm thinking of putting in a scrolling ticker with links to files on site so this is what I've put in (link removed): <marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" bgcolor="#192025" onmouseover="this.stop()" onmouseout="this.start()" scrollamount="4"><a href="link">Text</a></marquee> This is where my problem starts. The text is by default set to be black, therefore I can't see the text as the background colour is a shade of black. How do I change the text colour to white for this one bit? That's the first problem, I then tried to manually change it by adding some codes like this, which is messy: <marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" bgcolor="#192025" onmouseover="this.stop()" onmouseout="this.start()" scrollamount="4"><a href="link"><font size="3" face="Yanone Kaffeesatz" color="white"> Text</a></font> </marquee> It is now white text but the problem is that it appears in Times New Roman I think. I then tried deleting the face=Yanone Kaffeesatz strand but it does not work. Thing is, with the first <marquee> example in my post, it defaults to the Yanone Kaffeesatz font with no mention of it (as that is what I use on my site), but it's in black. When I add the other string in the second example I get it in white but not in the font I want. Any help would be much appreciated. Ok here's the low-down - I'm trying to find a better way to post news items on a large intranet - currently we have to post the same news on twenty different servers, which drives me barmy. The big issues are we can only get client-side access (no asp, php etc) although on the upside all the users are IE6 - so in a way some things like data islands become available. So I was thinking we could have a central xml file that we could update and each page would be set to show certain categories or something. first of all is this possible at all?! And if so - any help/pointers would be appreciated! You'll see below where I've got to - so it's displaying the first news item dynamically so I guess there's two questions - one hopefully fairly easy and the second for a resident-genius type: 1) How can I get it to display the 'first five records' rather than just the first one - I know you can fudge it with tables, but I'm trying to keep it as proper as possible and I know tables aren't really the best for this sort of thing. 2) Is there any way I can add 'markers' to the xml file that are checked - ie so the xml file could have items like: <item> <title> The title of this article</title> <markers> <political>Yes</political> <sport>No</sport> <technology>Yes</technology> </markers> <content>blah blah</content> </item> This'd then let me specify an article as both political and technology and thus on the political and technology pages it'd appear if it was one of the five most recent valid articles, but not on the sport pages. Any ideas?! Code below if it helps...

The 'text' for this news letter 'page' will be taken from a database and will be planted in this scrollable block, and will have a text title and an author and a 'last edit date'. Any first thoughts on how to set up the basic markup for this scrollable block of text please ?? Thank you ! -Mel Smith Mesa, Arizona Ok, this is a long post and is a big request so if you dont want to read alot of text or dont give out freebies, I would advice you going away now if you dont want to waste any time. Ok, anyhow, hi. This is my first post ad its a biggy. As an overall summary, I need to create a form which can be filled out that posts the information onto 1 page, but also creates another page automatically with it on. Now the detail. I run a site which uses phpbb user as the main site profile. I have intergrated into my homepage so you can log in there and see the info. What i need is a form which can be filled out by an admin with specific fields that would add a news segment onto the homepage. What I can do of this is if the admin wants to post a news segment on the homepage, they can click a link that will lead them to a conformation page that asks for thier details again and then checks thier phpb usergroup to see if they are an admin or not. I can also make it so once they have conformed it, they have access to the form. Now the form is a bit complicated. First off it needs these fields: Title Home Segment Article Segment The title is self explanitary. It is the main title of the news segment itself. The home segment is a small description of the actual segment itself. Article segment is the tricky bit. I need it to create a new page within a specific folder and it be domain.com/folder/title.php . I would also like it to post the date within the tags below. Oh and there needs to be a readmore link created with a link to the article The actual html for the segments would be: <a name="title of segment"></a> <h2>title of segment</h2> <p>homepage desc for homepage of full desc for article </p> <p class="post-footer align-right"> <a href="article link" class="readmore">Read more</a><span class="date">check system date</span></p> <br /> If you need more info, which you probably do, dont hesitate to ask. My site homepage is this : http://theholostudios.co.uk . This is if you want to see the layout. Oh and sorry if this sounds quite nooby, i am still learning all this stuff. |
