HTML - Need To Make File Available To Be Downloaded From Site
Hi everyone. I just found this site. I'm a newbie, still stuck in HTML 4.
I have an immediate need to add a powerpoint presentation file to my site so students can download it into their computers. Have tried putting file into root directory, then making tag: <a href="ftp://www.themcmullens.com/test.ppt">Download test</a> Doesn't work. Anyone have any ideas? Similar TutorialsI've been teaching myself html and a little bit of css recently. In doing so I've made a few different websites of bits and pieces that interest me, just for myself. I've attatched the code for a website I started. The thing is I know I'm going about it in a most inefficient way (I have a new table in the html code for every entry), but I don't know how else to go about it. I'd be most interested to know how a professional web developer would go about coding this site (given the design I've done). What technologies would they use, especially what would they use to handle several more entries? And yes, I did steal the design of the site, but I really like it, and it was just for my own learning. Thanks in advance. Hey, I searched the forum and couldn;t find anything. I have a site that has been created out of mostly flash. So all my written content is written in flash. so when someone tries to search something it won;t show cause it's embedded in the flash. Is there an HTML tag out there that will help people find sponsors from my page etc? This website.. has been a pain in the behind. Lately visitations have been falling. I cant get it to be visited that much, the average hits per day fell from 13 / 16 to 2 / 4 per day. It needs help and im clueless. Upgraded the meta data today. But since the site doesnt contain that much articles and headlines im stuck what to do more? Please have a look and do advice if you have some experience? thanks I am new with the whole html, I am trying to build a site using yola.com. The site i am building uses lots of pictures and what i want to do is have them almost as thumbnails but kind of bigger and be able to click on them to make them bigger or hover over them and make them bigger, sort of like how facebook does their pictures in a album. Just a note that yola does not support .html uploading of file onto the file manager without paying and i do not want to pay for anything right now. Is there any kind of code that I can do this with? or any other way i can do this? Thank you. 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! I have a popup on my website, it's a last.fm radio player www.brewrecords.net/shop Is there a way I can set ity up so it loads on the far right of the screen? Preferably stationed neatly in my column_right.php Thanks! if i have a flash site and a non-flash site at the same domain, how does a mac visitor get directed to the correct (non-flash) site? thanks for the newb help! berbes Hello, I kinda new to advanced web coding. I have a question: On my website, I want to make a button. When you click on it, it will pop-up with a frame (It would help if it's an iFrame, from an other HTML document). The frame should dim/gray out the background site. A perfect example would be one on those really annoying website content lockers, that make you complete some scam thing such as sign up for something, or complete a survey, but mine will open from a button, and will have a close box. An other not so perfect example is lightbox, how it open a frame, and greys out the background site. Anyways, In that frame will be an image gallery. It will use lightbox. Since this frame will cover about 90% of the screen (centered), lightbox will still open just in the covering frame. I would really appreciate some advice, or even better, a tutorial or link to one. Thanks in advanced, everybody! P.S. The frame doesn't need any kind of great graphics like how lightbox resizes itself. Hello. I have a question. In order to put an applet in my web page, I have to link to my applet. This works great for normal people viewing my page, and they can use my applet just fine. However, I don't like the idea of people being able to look at the source code, get the link to the applet location, enter it into their browser, and then download my jar file because then they can hack into the jar, decompile, and steal my code (not that it is worth stealing, but still). How can I keep people from being able to download my jar file? My guess is to have the applet some kind of folder options that only allow web-server be able to access it if that is possible. I tried messing with the folder security settings but either the jar was still able to downloaded by entering the link in the browser, or the jar file wasn't able to be read by the web-server. Please help me out. Thank you. hi how can i disable image from my web page.

It has to be easy to edit the text later on his own when the site is done. How would you suggest I build it? (I am familiar with dreamweaver for html) It will also have some flash content. (flash content need not to be editable, only stable so it doesn't change position from page to page. menu will be in flash) Is joomla any good for my client? how should I do it? Thanks a lot for your advice, js. Hi Guys, I have a simple question, I havent done any web/html stuff for a long time, ive totally forgotton how to do everything. At the moment im working on a small project, I was thinking of running it off a database but I think its way to complicated even for that as all I need is a single html page that populates with information that I have when certain inormation is entered. Basically its a contact list, name, number, ID, landline fax number etc. I have a list of about 400 names which I want to be searched by a ID and state, so for example, theres 2 data entry boxes, one is a drop down box of states and the next is a text entry field where you enter the ID (3 digits) once selected, it populates another text field with the information. I want all the info to remain on a single page, or maybe the info on another page and displayed on the main page when the propriate ID number is entered. Id prefer it this way as I can easily edit the page with text. I dont think a database is appropriate, as I need to run this locally. Does anyone have any idea what I need to do to get this done? Id appreciate any help. Thanks alot I am just new, i just started HTML a week ago and pls help me. Can i just place some html in between the head tags or ?? to make the text change to arial for example? http://www.mythlabb.com/ IE displays the top logo just fine. Firefox displays it as a broken image. It's just a .jpg file, nothing special, and it's on the page as a regular image tag right at the top of the Body tag. Am I missing some little Firefox quirk here or something? I removed the text content in the code snippet below but it's enough to get the idea. Code: <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles/mainStyle.css" type="text/css" media="screen" charset="utf-8" /> </head> <body> <center><img src="images\mythLogo.jpg"></center> <center>webdesign - consultation - graphics<br></center><br><br> <div id="topnav">Insert menu here</div> <div id="maintext">Insert text here</div> </body> </html> |
