HTML - Pre Tags In Html.... Help Required

Hi
I need some help please. I am very un-educted person when it comes to anything www related but could design a bridge from scratch....:
I have selected view source from a website and had a look at the HTML that makes it all tick. I have changed a few things (text size and colour) and would like to preview it and see if I have managed to change anything and see if I understand the basics of html. My problem is I copied the source file and pasted in into word from where I changed it. Can one preview the site with any word function or would I require other software?? When I select the "webpage preview" it still comes in html formatt.

Could someone please explain (IN PLAIN ENGLISH) how to go about this.....

Thanks

Hello, just joined what looks like a great resource for HTML help.

I am looking to have a form with two actions, "save as draft" and "do your thing". Both buttons would go to different scripts in the background which would perform different tasks, ie one saving the form data somewhere, and the other doing the work required.

My understanding of HTML forms is that you can only have one submit action, but I am no expert.

Has anyone had any experience of doing something similar? If so what would you recommend?

Any suggested reading much appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

I'm brand-new to the forum, and brand-new to html. I'm attempting to modify a form on my website.

I had hoped I could avoid learning html by having someone else design my website, but it's becoming increasingly frustrating to go through him for every minor change (not to mention expensive).

So, I'm basically learning html while changing this form, and I know it's not a real pretty script, but I just need it to do its job.

After 5 hours of work on it, I thought it was just perfect. Every time I made one or two change, I uploaded it, and tested the form before saving it and moving on. It was going fine, until the last changes (removing the required validation on several fields)--now the form submits even when not a single field is filled in. Even undoing the changes and going back to the previous version doesn't help...

Here's the original: http://www.cbellisfunding.com/capital_request_form.html

And here's my edited version: http://www.cbellisfunding.com/capita...0modified.html

Feel free to try the form out; I don't mind the docs in my inbox if it helps troubleshoot.

I would greatly appreciate any constructive input!
Thank you!

oh, by the way, I ran the html validation software and it came up with 193 errors (!). All of them were my programmer's, not mine. (I change only a few very specific things) Many were closing code, and I hand-fixed those. The rest I haven't a clue how important they are to repair, since the web form has worked with them so far...

Hello Im new to html and css. Im creating a menu using a css using the <a> tag. when I use the <a> tag later in my code it uses the css. How do I uses the <a> tag in multiple places on the page and without using the css?

Here is an example of the css code used.

HTML Code:

a:link,a:visited
			{
	display:block;
	font-weight:bold;
	color:#FF0;
	background-color:#03F;
	text-align:center;
	padding:12px;
	text-decoration:none;
	text-transform:uppercase;
			}
a:hover,a:active
			{
	background-color:#FF0;
	color:#03f;				
			}

I have gone back from scratch in HTML but this time creating my own tutorial as I go along and have covered a few items before right here on this forum before and now I just can't seem to remember and understand the bleepety-bleep-bleep-BLEEP things no matter how many tutorials I read a million times on the net, so really freaking frustrating, my head is about to explode, sorry got to vent somewhere before I run amok!

Ok, [I'm taking a few deep breaths here......], let me start with "linking to a location on the same page", I see the anchors

Quote:
<a href="#myanchor">Go to anchor</a>
<a name="myanchor">My Anchor</a>
Using my text here as an example, I want to use the word in the first line "gone" to link directly to the word "million" in the 5th line from the top, how do I do this please?

I am using
the following css

<style type="text/css">
#testbar{
position:absolute;
background-color: transparent;
width: 730px;
height: 94px;
visibility: hidden;
z-index: 100;
}
</style>

then some java script

then Html div tag to show the id

<div id="testbar">
<a>Close</a>
<script src="/testjs.js"></script>
</div>

The <a>close</a> following the code as i give in js
but the testjs.js is not following the specifications produced by that some java script i used

this one working in IE but not in firefox3.5
what might be the problem?
can u give the solution

Hello Everyone,

I have just started learning html and I am facing a problem. I have wrote the following code in notepad:

Code:

<h3> HTML Images - The <img> Tag and the Src Attribute </h3>
<p> The <img> tag is empty, which means that it contains attributes only, and has no closing tag.<b/><br/>

When I open this html file in browser, text "<img>" does not display correctly. Please help me asap.

Thanks!

Hello
Are there any valid HTML tags that you can embed in a page that do not display content on the page?

I am looking to store data that a RSS feed can retrieve on a news page, but I don't want the content to display on the news page, only be pulled for the RSS feed.

I know that notepad is effective for using HTML tages and save notepad as [save as: name.html] and then it appears like a webpage.

I don't know how to do the same with (wordpad, microsoft office word)
When I add HTML tages to wordpad or microsoft office word and [save as :name.HTML]
it doesn't appear as webpage,

when I write an ordinary content in wordpad or microsoft office word how to open and edite the content with HTML tages

For as long as I've been validating web pages, I never realized that the closing </head> tag was optional in HTML. I feel as if I've missed the boat at times.

While I'm all for trimming excess code, I just cannot for the life of me strip out closing tags because they are optional in HTML. I'd be concerned that something, somewhere would not parse the document correctly if I removed the closing </head> element.

Are my concerns unfounded?

I work as a product manager for a company and one of my responsibilities is to update pricing on our website and I've just recently taken to making cool tables to reference similar products on select product pages. However, with each reference in a description field, the more search results get convoluted and the harder it is to get what you are searching for the come up because our website search tool lists searches alphabetically rather than by relevance.

So my question is this: are there any HTML tags that bypass the way search tools organize its listings and let the webmaster specify, "I want this product to show up first in a search." For example, one of our product numbers is P992. We sell similar products, like P993, P994, etc. and I reference P992 on each of these other product pages, but with each product I mention P992 on, that product shows up when you search for P992 on our site, as well. Most of the time the actual product that is searched for is buried somewhere in the middle, depending on where it stands alphabetically, and I can't figure out how to get it to show up at the top of the page.

Anyone have any suggestions? I'd rather not spend money on a more advanced search tool and would much rather manually tell our search engine to list the actual product, P992, first and then all other products that mention P992 in their description field to be listed after that.

Thanks for any help.
