HTML - Couple Of Question

So I'm fairly new to Web Development, but I know a few other languages (C++, C (of course), and a bit of Java). I've been digging around the web for some information about having permanent pages inside pages, but turned up little result. What I mean by this is having some sort of fixed page, that wont be reloaded upon clicking local links (Home, etc.)... For example, I stream over Justin.tv, and they have an option to embed your stream to a website. I would like to have this stream embedded on a fixed page so that when users click links to surf the site, it wont keep loading and reloading. Also, the stream will always be in view of the user. In a nutshell, I would like to have a header for the navigation links and banner, a fixed sidebar with the embedded stream, and a content part that would show the rest of the content for the site.

I hope this isn't too confusing to understand, haha.. I tried to make it as easy to understand as I can, but I don't know all of the fancy web development lingo to simplify it.

On my website http://www.ultdmovies.com.

How do I change the height/width of the buttons that say home, contact us, movies, etc.?

How can I add a seperate border under the video like the one under the "mission statement" so I can have other things down on the bottom?

How can I add a colored border around Mission statement and the stuff below it?

Im a very green newbie to html and could use a few pointers. I'm starting with the basics and writing out out the html manually in notepad, and using chrome as the browser to view it. i have a couple of (probably basic) questions which i need help with, so if your not busy any help would be greatly appreciated!

1. how do i use images from my own computer in html? I am currently using images which i have uploaded to dropbox and using the url's as the image source.

2. Im having trouble with image maps. I am trying to use one image to display two links. below is a copy of the code I've written;


<img src="https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Public/IMG_0016.jpg?w=e566152f" height="250" width="400" usemap="#kyandnod" />

<map name="kyandnod" />

<area shape="rect" coords="0,200,250,0" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9U8zzj314AU/SUp0H-R3K2I/AAAAAAAAAEE/S2loVa1eX3I/s400/heaven.jpg" />
<area shape="rect" coords="200,400,250,0" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_MDH7QEZTFE8/TE3feptOxXI/AAAAAAAABG8/eapY9eS6m20/s1600/hell.gif" />

</map>



the first area shape clinks to the correct link, however the second area shape clicks to another link that is further up the page. I am at a loss as to how to correct this and i cant seem to find the answers in the usual places online.

any answers would be of great use and I don't want to move onto the next stage of my html learning until I've nailed this one!

thanks

So, I'm redesigning my website to conform with all W3C html/css standards as well as following all the suggested ways of doing it, and thus, I have a question or two I would like some comments on.

1.

Say I want a line of text: Filed in Information, Monday 1st. Oct. 2007
And "Filed in" should be red, "information" black and the date light gray.

I tried doing <font class="f1">Filed in</font> and then apply the style in the css sheet, but this didn't work. Is this an illegal syntax for HTML? (evidently, as it didn't work) And if it is, what would actually be the best way of doing this? Since <H#> tags create paragraph spacing...

2.


To import the css style sheet into my page I have been using <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> But then someone mentioned the @import method. Is there a practical of technical difference to the way I am doing it now?

Thanks.

Hi All,
I was told to correct some basic mistakes and if I still needed help, to ask for help.

Well, 1 month later I was able to correct some errors and now 5 from the 8 Options Choices are working. NEED HELP WITH THE DEFAULT/WHEN TYPING THE URL AND 2 MORE OPTIONS WHICH DOESN'T WORK.

I am a beginner, so I believe that the intermediates and experts can help me.

The site works fine from here, since it filter errors. Actually it works with all browsers except Internet explorer 7-9.

Hello, I'm new here, so like, hi and all that good stuff, hope everyone is well!

So, my question.

When you type into your browser, cnn.com and it resolves to http://www.cnn.com, is that done via the .htaccess file? Type cnn.com into your address field in your browser to see what I mean if you don't get what I mean.

Some sites don't resolve to the www, like gizmodo.com (type that into your browser to see what I mean).

I've got two parties saying different things, one says it's DNS, one says it's .htaccess.

HELP?

Thank you!

Hello, I am WGAnubis. I'm fairly new to the world of HTML, having taken a class on it last spring semester. Lately I have been designing sites for the group of online video gamers I run with and have come up with a rather cool looking demo of the site. We all like it but im not entirely sure on how to impliment the design in the way it looks. Im fairly certain I need to use frames but I dont think it would be able to retain the "connections" found in the following image:



As you can see, each "window" is connected to each other by what looks like steel connectors. I'd really like to have the website look exactly or close to the demo, but if I use frames im not sure how that would be possible. Is their another way I can go about doing this or do I have to rethink the demo?

Hey guys sorry to post another question so fast I just am kind of lost with this whole html thing but I'm learning fast =). Ryschwith was more then helpful with my last one so hats off to him. Here is my next problem. A lady here at the company wants me to add a link into our site that says "Job Application Form" and when you click it you download a .XLS file for vendors and customers to fill out. I know this is probably a pretty easy thing but I have no clue on how to position it in a place I want or where to store the file itself and how to point to it. I have googled a couple things but they were honestly above my head and seemed way too complicated for what I was trying to do. Is there a simple method for this? you can look at our site at www.qcrepro.com. Also i am using pagebreeze right now because they won't purchase me any decent software, is there a better free program to use? Thanks alot for helping out.

-Joe

Hello,
I have a small customer list, maybe 70 customers, and i want to display on my website in a table with hyperlinks to their website and i want to sort them alphabetically. I entered all the information in MS excel, but when i import the data into dreamweaver cs3 i only get the names and not the hyperlink. Any ideas on how i can do this?

I also don't have much knowledge on databasing, so i don't think thats an option unless its the only way, then i'll have to learn it.

Thanks

On my website, all of the images I've posted, have been created using Photoshop. How is it possible, in order to create clickable links on top of existing images? For instance scattered around the existing image? I guess that this is possible using Dreamweaver CS3, although I am hand-coding, therefore I was wondering if there was another way, and if so, how?
Thanks a lot guys.

What exactly is XHTML. how much different from HTML is it? and, do I have to re-learn a whole bunch of stuff to write valid code with it?

Is there anything wrong with thia code?

<h1><font color="000000"><em>Recycle With Us</em></font></h1><br clear="all" />

Shouldn't the <h1> tag be closed last?

Thanks, Karen

Hi,

I can't believe I joined here in 2005 haha.

I hope someone can help me with this. I'm not sure whether this is done with html or CSS but how do I achieve what's done on this page:

http://www.slashthree.com/artpacks/view/1572/

So, any sort of navigation menu is on top and when you scroll up and down the content moves but the menu does not.

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

is it possible to create a DTD for a xml-file, which can have a structure like any other xml but if in a node a attribut x appears in combination with an attribut y there are some rules which attributs have to appear in that node too.

Thanks...
