HTML - How To Handle Cached Documents
I am trying to find a way for users to download up to date document file on a webpage. Many users click on the link to a document file and open rather than save the file to a specific location.
In the future, the document file gets updated and if the user clicks on the link and open the document file, a browser brings up old document file that has been saved before in temporary files directory instead of opening up updated document. I know that I can tell users to save the document to a specific location on their machine, but I want to know if there is a way to avoid this issue using a script if there is any. Similar Tutorialshi all, i have created a website presentation for my project with about 1000 pictures with only simple html. The website will not be online and is intended to be use only offline from local disc. I don't know why but the pictures are not cached. Is that a limitation to offline websites? Also when I create simple code with only one picture in it, it's not cached. A I doing something wrong? I'm using IE6. Thanks Boris I need to get some HTML from my old profile on Vampirefreaks, as I kinda deleted it all. So I found the cached page on google, but I want the code for the profile. ut no the whole page like the home link etc. Can anyone help? Hi, I'm having a probably unusual problem with my website. It contains html pages, but also documents & PDFs for downloading. People are making links directly to these documents, but as these documents are in a separate directory, they cannot find the original page which lists all these documents. Is there any way that when someone follows a link to a document in a specific directory, that I can redirect them to a html page instead Many thanks, Rudy what i would like to do is have certain documents either in PDF or.dox format available for download from my site, can anyone point me in the direction of a good tutorial for how to do this im not finding anyhting except third part services that upload the document to their server and then you just link to them.. Hi, I'm a noob at HTML, and I've learned a lot, but I can't seem to get this right. I want to divide all my HTML documents into 3 sections, without frames. I want the middle to be 800px, and on its left and right 200px(separately). However, I can't seem to get it right, I want to divide it so that the code in each division doesn't affect what's in the middle9vaguely speaking of course). Any help is appreciated. I hope this is posted in the right section. If not, I would appreciate some advice as to which forum section to post in. I'm after code / software that can automatically detect the number of words in a range of different document formats. It's for a proofreading website so has to be reliable. Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated. Louis. I want to embed (not hyperlink) a sub-document into a master. The specifications for HTML 4.01 at paragraph 13.5 provide the following simple example: <OBJECT data="embed_me.html"> Warning: embed_me.html could not be embedded. </OBJECT> (the Warning message displays in case the agent fails to load the embedded document) However I have not been able to make this feature work. If you open the master file with Internet Explorer 7, you obtain the Warning message, hence IE7 is not capable to load the embedded document. At the same time the bar saying that pop-ups have been blocked shows, but even allowing the pop-up nothing changes. I tried to add information, such as: <OBJECT data="embed_me.html" type="text/html"> ... with no result. Why is the tag OBJECT not working as expected? What have I done wrong? Thanks a lot. Hi All, I am building a intranet site which is totally internal, the records I'm saving have physical paths to documents I want to link to, which can be anywhere on our network. These paths have to be physical. But I'm having a problem trying to get the link to work, an example link is below. <a target="_blank" href="m:\docs\conference.doc">m:\docs\conference.doc</a> Maybe it's not possible at all with HTML on it own I may need to get scripting involved. Any help appreciated Hello all, I'm wanting to put a print button on a web page that when clicked will print multiple documents/pages. I have tried doing this but have failed several times, does anyone know what the code is that i should be using? Thanks Mini Which document type is easy and most used either Transitional or Strict? As I have validated my page using w3c validator it asks to define class for each and every thing like <table class="xx"> .xx {width:40%;} This makes maintainablility easy but if I have to define 20 different widths I cant use class names just for these widths.. Will Transitional doc type support this?? Hi All This is my first post so i hope I provide all the info you need, to be able to help.
