HTML - Automatic Updates?
I was wondering if it's possible to automatically copy a file to a website from another site. The reason I ask, is the company I work for wishes to show the newsletters from their partner company but doesn't want to update their website after each letter. So, I know I can create a link to their site rather easily, but I'm wondering if it's possible to actually copy the files that are stored in .pdf format.
Similar TutorialsHi everyone, I have a website that I update a lot. Most browsers though, remember the contents of the page for fast viewing next time. My problem is that there are a lot of people who go to my site, and think there is nothing new, becasuse they are really seeing the unupdated version of the site... and they don't refresh. I know about the auto-refresh HTML code... but I don't think that would be the right way to go here. Does anyone know of anything else I could do? Thanks. how can i create a script/code to allow users to enter there email adress and that email address be saved to my yahoo adress book? Hi there, Sorry if this is the wrong forum but I wasn't really sure where else to put it. Basically, I've been making an awful lot of websites lately for final year art students as a portfolio of their work. The majority of them want something extremely simple, typically with a collection of thumbnails linking to larger versions of work, a page of links, an about page etc.. The issue is, unless they're proficient with HTML and FTP, they can't update them that easily by themselves. So, on a hosting package without PHP, what's the best way I can automate the process of them being able to update their sites? Are there any good CMS platforms that don't require PHP? Thanks in advance, Jez I had this problem before with the Firefox coding incompatibility.. On my website, I post updates for all of the changes I make about each month. I tried to post an update today and I noticed that it wasn't showing up in Firefox. I brought my page up on Internet Explorer and it shows up just fine. Point and case, there's something wonky with my coding again that is angering Firefox and its refusing to show my updates. Here's the 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=utf-8"/> <title>Natalie's Cosplay</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" charset="utf-8" /> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <h1></h1> <div id="head-1" style="WIDTH: 401px; HEIGHT: 386px"></div> <div id="nav"> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm//index.htm"><font size="1">HOME</font></a></li> <li><font color="#000000" size="1"><a href="http://www.geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm/Aboutme.html">ABOUT ME</font></a></li> <li><font color="#000000" size="1"><a href="http://www.geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm/completed.html">COMPLETED COSTUMES</font></a></li> <li><a href="http://www.geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm/inprogress.html"><font color="#000000" size="1">IN</font><font color="#000000" size=1>-PROGRESS COSTUMES</a></font> </li> <li><font color="#000000" size="1"><a href="http://www.ultraguest.com/view/1180720057">GUESTBOOK</font></a></li> <li><font color="#000000" size="1"><a href="http://www.geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm/links.html">RECOMMENDED SITES</font></a></li> <li class="last"><a href="MAILTO:Chinesefightinyo@aol.com"><font color="#000000" size="1">CONTACT ME</font></a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="body-left"> <h2><font color="#000000"><em><font color=#000000>G</font></em>al</font>lery</h2><br> Newest Costume: Songmage Rikku! <div id="gallery"> <div class="gal" id="gzero"><a href="http://geocities.com/lnyworikkukenm/songmage.html"><img height="163" alt="Latest Costume: Songmage Rikku from Final Fantasy X-2/Original Artist Concept" src="bigsong.jpg" width="221" ></a></div> <div class="gal" id="gone"><img height="41" src="song1.jpg" width =57 ></a></div> <div class="gal" id="gtwo"><img height="41" src="song2.jpg" width =57 ></a></div> <div class="gal" id="gthree"><img height="41" src="song3.jpg" width =57 ></a></div> <div class="clear"></div> </div> <table width="133" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" align="center"><tr><td align="middle"><a href="http://www.website-hit-counters.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.website-hit-counters.com/cgi-bin/image.pl?URL=8421-4416" alt="free website hit counters service" border="0" ></a></td></tr><tr><td align="middle"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 9px; COLOR: #24092c; FONT-FAMILY: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; TEXT-DECORATION: none">Get a <a href="http://www.website-hit-counters.com" target="_blank" style="FONT-SIZE: 9px; COLOR: #444444; FONT-FAMILY: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; TEXT-DECORATION: none" title="free website hit counter">free website hit counter</a> .</font></td></tr></table> </div> <div id="body-right"> <h2 align="left"><font color=#000000>W</font>elcome!</h2> <p align="center"> <br><font color="#000000" size="1">Please don't use any of my photos without asking!

Hey guys, I'm trying to convert a website I work on www.darkregions.com so that certain sections (such as the news and new books sections) can be updated dynamically using an easy to use interface. The reason I'm doing this is because the owner of the business wants to be able to do some of the updates himself. What's a system/tool that I could achieve this with? I know it will require PHP/MySQL. Let me know what you guys think. I have a site that is rather large with several pages and files. It is an internal site for the company I work for. Some of the people who send me content to put on the site want to be able to make these updates themselves. None of them know much, if any, HTML or CSS. Is there any tool out there that can make it possible for them to updtate the site without adding a bunch of unecessary code to what is already there? I was looking into CMS applications (this was suggested to me last time I posted about this), but they seem to be applications that you have to build the site with, rather than take a site that already exists and modify. Thanks for any help! Ok so I am extremely new to coding and am setting up a small website. Everything I use right now is based off of a few excel spreadsheets and the site I'm making I want some of that info in a more public format rather than sharing a bunch of spreadsheets. One spreadsheet I have imports the html tables from another website and puts it into a google docs spreadsheet. So whenever the source code is changed on the original website it is also changed on my spreadsheet. Now, is it possible to reference a specific spreadsheet cell(s) (instead of the specific data in the cells) so that when the data is changed on the spreadsheet it is also changed on my website. The way I have it now it only shows what was on the spreadsheet at the time the code was entered. So if cell A1 said apples and then a day later cell A1 changed to bananas, my website still shows apples since that was what was originally entered even though the spreadsheet changed to bananas. I'm not sure if I'm too clear on what I'm asking...I tried. If you have a vague answer or a starting point where I should start looking that would be good too. Thanks. hey all, working on some simple coding that is giving me trouble. here is what i have so far: HTML Code: <div style = 'position:absolute; width:auto; background-color:#DFD2FC;padding:10px;'> <div style = 'position:relative; background-color:#B6FCCC;'> <p>pair</p> <div style = 'position:relative; float:left; background-color:#FCE4B6; margin:5px; padding:5px;'> <p style = 'align-text:left'>1<br>2<br>moo<br>meow</p> </div> <div style = 'position:relative; float:left; background-color:#FCE4B6; margin:5px; padding:5px;'> <p style = 'align-text:left'>3<br>4<br>sdf<br>asdf<br>sdf</p> </div> </div> </div> however, it's not behaving correctly. i'd like the 'green' div to change in size according to the text within the 'yellow' divs. and then the 'purple' div should change size compared to the size of the 'green' div. i hope that's clear... any help? Hi there I use www.webnode.com to build & maintain the website for our children's orchestra. On my website we have a page were every kid's name, photo and age is showed. I was wondering if there was an automatic age changer system code, so I would not have to check every day if there are birthdays and having to change them manually. Something like this; Name, <age>, photo. That age would be calculated by putting in the birth date. Is that possible? Thx in advance! Martino Hi, this is my first post and I'm pretty new at HTML. Ok, I have been making a script and it works fine, but there's a problem. Most websites I visit (including this one) when you make the window smaller, the stuff you covered up simply goes off screen, but in my script, when you cover it up most stuff shifts down a line and is still visible. This look very messy having things constantly shifting around! : I was wondering if there was some tag or something that causes everything to freeze in place no matter how small the window gets. -Thanks i have created a web page using MS front page and i folder nme midi containing 600 midi files and uploaded both at a free web hosting service no i need to know that is there any way that the names of all files in folder MIDI automatically appears on my web page i dont want to type names of files and then create there hyperlinks it may take lot of time i have to submit nearly 2000 files . How does one enable automatic re-sizing of a web page based of the viewers resolution and browser? I'm making an HTML-based text editor for Windows PCs. The editor needs to have some special functions, and one of them is the automatic colouring of certain keywords. Here's the situation. (Apologies if little of the following is relevant, but I can't be sure.) The editor is part of a program. When the user wants to write something, the editor is created (an instance of the Windows WebBrowser) and custom HTML is loaded into it. So it's displaying a spontaneously-created HTML page. This page includes a section marked contenteditable=true, and that's where the user types. When the user is finished writing, they press a button, the current HTML in the browser is read and the text is extracted from it and saved, and the browser is destroyed. All that works fine. However, I'm having trouble building in some special functions. Namely keyword colouring. The host program allows the user to set a number of keywords, and a colour for each one. The idea is that when the user is typing in the editor, keywords will be detected and coloured. This colouring process needs to happen in realtime. As an amateur, I naively thought it would suffice to just read the HTML intermittently, scan for the keywords and add tags to each one, like this: Code: <SPAN style=text-colour:#FF00FF>thekeyword</SPAN> But there are several problems with this method. Every time the HTML is revised and reloaded into the browser, the "page" is scrolled back to the top. (As an aside, if anyone knows a method for getting and setting the caret position in an HTML page, I'd be grateful to know it too!) The second problem is that if the user types in the middle of a keyword, the new text inherits the colour. So obviously the tags method isn't going to be sophisticated enough. What I need is a smart way to detect and recolour keywords on the fly. Some form of syntax highlighting, I suppose. Does anybody know any tricks for doing this? JavaScript perhaps? Below is an example of what I want to achieve. As you can see, the caret is in the middle of a keyword. If the user pressed the spacebar, the editor would immediately look like the second image. What do you think? Is it possible? Thanks for reading, Seymour. Hi, i am sure you's are all familiar with photobucket, well i was wonderig if anyone knows the code to automatically highlight and copy to the clipboard information in a box when it is just simply clicked like it does with the ht code, image url, etc next to your picture on photobucket. thanks, karl Is there a way to automatically login to a website that requires http authentication? I am especially talking about an image that has a src field that contains a protected image. In some browsers, for example, this works: Code: <img src="http://username:password@website.com/image.jpg"> But, this inclusion of the username/password isn't supported by all browsers I've tested it on, nor is it standard. Is there any way to do this in html or javascript? Thanks so much! Hello. I am quite new to this kind of page work so I am looking for some help. I am trying to have my page show listed items by letter and, with each letter, a number of results per a page. For example. I would like to add "Abacus" to to "A", but "A" has 20 items already. How would I make it so that "Abacus" pushes the list down and a second page is created? I am hoping for a script because I plan to add new items regularly. It would be tedious to manually create a new page and to sort every item down one. Hi guys I was hoping someone could help. We have a screen in IT at work and would like to setup a simple webpage which cycles through a number of other webpages showing content. What im trying to find is a simple way to do this but also add a fade out fade in effect. Can anyone help? Hi! I need help! How can I copy a html table row when updated? The table is not in my site! I know the name and where it is! I prefer not to copy data manualy because it's not updated reguraly and I've not so much time! If I can automaticaly insert it in a mysql database is perfect!!! Can someone help me?!? Thanks! |
