HTML - Stupid Newb Question
Hi.
I was wondering if there were any generous souls in this forum that could help me out? I am new to HTML (et al) and am trying to test something here at work. I need to try and identify all the tags\attributes that might contain a URL (absolute path - Eg. http://mycompany.com ...). I am aware that links in HTML contain an href attribute. So I think I am all set there. However, there are other attributes that I might not be aware of. For example, an external javascript file etc. I believe that CSS, XML (et al ???) might also contain absolute URLs. I am just not sure if that's true or not. Would anybody be able to come up with a list of of languages and tags\attributes that might contain a URL. Or point me to a source that would have a consise list (versus having me spend a week researching all the possibilities). Thanks in advance. Sorry if this is a major PITA. Similar Tutorialsok so lets say i get one of these free css/xhtml templates that have columns. And i have link on the left: home about us contact us blah blah blah.... and in cpanel i have index.html which is the first page. (home page) now, for contact us, do i created a new file in cpanel and call it contactus.html and just copy paste everything and change the body to our phone numbers and emails? or is there an easier way to accompish this? If the explanation is too long, my aim is pballa818, so IM me and we can talk there. Thanks for all your help guys!! Hi all, first time poster. I'm taking an html/css class and have gotten a little stuck on one of the assignments. The instructions say to "Style the address element to display as bold and Arial text. The text should be all uppercase letters as white text on a navy background. Make sure the background color does not extend from the left edge of the screen to the right edge of the screen." The bolded part is where im having trouble. Everything else is fine but the backgorund color is extending all the ti the left, and I can't figure out how to make it be only the background of the text. I styled the address tag in a css sheet. Here is the css code: address{ font-style: bold; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-seriff; text-transform: uppercase; color: white; background-color: navy; } And here is the html code: <address>Women's Council on Entrepreneurship in the Americas <br />23 Butler Blvd. <br />Suite 400B <br />Hamilton Creek, NJ 35688</address> Sorry for the long post. Any help would be much appreciated. Greetings to all! I am in the HTML & CSS game for about a week now.. I been looking at online Tutorials for days and trying to understand everything...I am not a Book learner...More of someone trying to show how to..I guess I pick up on that way easier...lol My Question is I need to learn how to do Internal links!!..I am making my first website...I do not understand how to set-up the code in HTML to connect pages together... My co-worker was working on it before I took over this is what they put: <div id="MainPageNavigation"> <!-- HINT: Set the class of any menu link below to "active" to make it appear active --> <ul> <li><a href="#">HOME</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="active">ABOUT US</a></li> <li><a href="#">SALES</a></li> <li><a href="#">QUALITY</a></li> <li><a style="background-image: none;" href="#">CONTACT US</a></li> </ul> I have created a new page for the "sales" page and saved as a JPG File...How do I go about making it a clickable link now from the home page to the "sales" page?? Sorry for asking a dumb question too...LoL! I see this in other pages <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> What is it and do I need it in mine? OK, have made websites before, but NEVER used frames . The website looks and works great in the "Preview in Browser" view. It has 3 frames. A header (top), navigation (left) and content (right). The navigation properly shows content on the right content side. My problem is this: When uploaded, the page (index2.html) is only showing ONE of the three frames (it varies which one shows, but typically the header), and it changes the name of the page in the browswer to header.html (or whichever frame it chooses to show). How do I fix this to where ALL THREE frames show at once? Sorry for the stupid question--the part I thought would be the simplest has turned out to be the biggest pain in the butt! I've juggled code and tried using Inline Frames--same problem. This has been going on for three days now! SO FRUSTRATING! Clearly, it's just a mental block and I am probably missing something really simple. If someone could help me, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks, Melanie Can anyone tell me why the first link works and the second one doesn't? The second link has been working fine for several years until today. http://www.tcm.com/schedule/index.js...zone=CST&cid=N http://www.tcm.com/schedule/index.js...zone=CST&cid=N Yes, I realize the first link has today's date. However, in the past, the second link has taken me straight to the correct page. Now I get the following message: Bad Gateway The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server. Did the site change a setting on their software? Any information or guidance you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Tom I am very new to using HTML, I have looked everywhere for a way to make an icon change when you roll over it with you mouse but I could find nothing by Google it. I pieced this code together <a rel="nofollow" href="http://signup.getfreepsncardcodes.com/" target="_blank"><img title="Sign Up" onmouseover="this.src='http://www.weebly.com/uploads/6/0/4/2/6042957/custom_themes/887654571988508086/files/8.png?95150';" onmouseout="this.src='http://www.weebly.com/uploads/6/0/4/2/6042957/custom_themes/887654571988508086/files/9.png?69287';" src="http://www.weebly.com/uploads/6/0/4/2/6042957/custom_themes/887654571988508086/files/9.png?69287" alt="" width="124" height="30" /></a> But I have read that Google will drop your ranking on them if you have bad coding on your site. I am just wondering if this is an OK code to use, and if not is there a better way to do this. It is working on my site the way I wanted it to so I am hoping it is OKO to use. Any and all help is appreciated BTW this is the site so you can see how the icon looks http://www.getfreepsncardcodes.com/ Hi folks, I was wondering if any of you kind folks might be able to assist. This code was written with seamonkey, composer. I am dammed if I can get the table to center, on the page. Hope you folks can help. see attached Hello I'm assuming I'm in the right area for this. http://hiatus.5u.com/index.html I'm wanting to position a box on this website with HTTP links that open a new browser. I've tried using custom drawn boxes, but my website doesn't like it, it's chewing up the links and wont link them. If you look at the website link there I posted, to the right side of the page there is a box that is empty, below it says something like "links will open a new browser" I want to set links there. I don't know what style of scripting I need to accomplish that. I'm starting to feel like html isn't cutting the mustard. And frontpage isn't cutting the mustard over there. I also have another question, about setting up an html password. I have this setup here ~ Code: <input type="password" name="time23" size="10"><INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="cgiemail_required" VALUE="time23: Please supply the correct Password."> <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="cgiemail_error" VALUE="error_enlistment.html"> I want it to work like this, if you put in a password and it's incorrect, it'll send you to an error page. This somewhat works, however not accurately enough. If you leave it blank it will spit out an error site. But if you put any random thing, as long as the box isn't empty it will work. I don't mind if the password is in the page source code, that's not a big deal. Most people I know don't have a clue you can even look at source code. So as long as I can ring a few in doing it this way I'm fine. Website is Here Ok, so I'm trying to get the text near the picture with the old guy with the roses padded a little. I tried adding "padding: 2px;" to the css but that doesnt work...Can someone look at my css and figure it out? Im stuck! -Thanks h1.ripway.com/heerog I just started and am already having a problem...The image 'top.jpg' isn't repeating along the x-axis...Need help URGENTLY- tyvm peoples So my post got deleted.... If you post something not up to standards do they just take it off? Im guessing this one lasts 2 minutes ok i'm abit confused on y my link works in IE but not firefox. i went to validate my code and it is valid. http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...sasylum.com%2F http://necrosasylum.com <<< thats the page Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" > <title>Necro's Asylum</title> <style type="text/css"> body {margin:0px; color:#000; font-weight:bold;} #bg_image { width: 100%; height: 100%; left: 0px; top: 0px; position: absolute; z-index: 0; } #contents { width: 100%; height: 100%; z-index: 1; position: absolute; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="contents"> <center> <form method="get" action="http://www.google.com/search"> <input type="text" name="q" size="22" maxlength="255"><input type="submit" value="Google Search"> </form> </center> </div> <div id="bg_image"> <a href="http://necrosasylum.com/Asylum/news.php/"><img src="enter.gif" alt="Necro's Asylum" border="0" style="width: 100%; height: 100%;"></a> </div> </body> </html> anyone got any idea why it don't work in firefox? ive done it now nvm, google ftw OK this is by no means a major problem. It's more of an annoyance. On my login script I have a basic form for logging in. Fire fox and IE will keep my login information for me when I get to the login page. The issue is that when the page loads my user name field will be blank however my email and password fields will have my info in it. On any other site I use, I would get the user name and email fields with my info and the password field blank. That's the way it should be. Below you will find a snipit of the code, There has to be something I'm missing. Thanks for your help! Code: <form action="index.php" method="post" name="user_login"> <tr> <td class="formNames" align="right" valign="middle" width="50%"> User Name: </td> <td align="left" valign="middle" width="50%"> <input class="formText" name="user_name" type="text" size="20" maxlength="35" value="<?php echo $user_name; ?>" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="formNames" align="right" valign="middle"> Email Address: </td> <td align="left" valign="middle"> <input class="formText" name="email" type="text" size="20" maxlength="35" value="<?php echo $email; ?>" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="formNames" align="right" valign="middle"> Password: </td> <td align="left" valign="middle"> <input class="formText" name="password" type="password" size="20" maxlength="25" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" align="center"> <input class="submitButton" type="submit" value="Submit" name="enter" /> </form> </td> </tr> Thanks again!! Regards Guyzer nevermind i found out why Hello, I am facing a weird problem in IE which is not happening with other browsers. Open the following website: http://www.clinicasdefertilidadenlima.pe/ You will see 3 combo boxes on this page displaying "Lima". Click on any combo and select any other value like Lima or Arequipa. Page will refresh but now combo will not show selected value which should always be "Lima" (I have hard coded it) If you take a look at the HTML source then it's a simple combo box and I have even defined selected="selected" for "Lima" value but in IE it only displays selected value when you open home page. After that it doesn't show value when you select value from combo box. I am using IE9. Here is the combo box I am talking about: HTML Code: <select id="city_id" name="city_id" class="f2_city" onchange="redirect(this.form)"> <option value="" selected="selected">LIMA</option> <option value="LIMA">LIMA</option> <option value="Arequipa">Arequipa</option> </select> Thanks Hello everyone, I've been racing to learn html/css in the past couple weeks to throw up a website, and so far so good. But: I've searched the internet and I cannot find an answer to my questions. The page in question is: http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/jonmille/projects.html style sheet (relevant section is in the "Programming: List Settings" section) http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/jonmille/style.css You can see that the gray borders under the text/images have a small break in them. I assume it has something to do with the fact that I'm using two columns. How do I fix this and make a solid border (in a non hackish way)? Note: if you say "use css/divs," I wrestled with those for about two hours before I gave up and made a table. Secondly, in IE7, all the images/text are completely flushed left, ignoring the table padding. How can I fix this? Note, I've never checked this site in IE6 or below, and never will, so if it looks wrong in IE6, then the user doesn't deserve to see my site anyway. Thanks for your time! Jon Hello everyone! I've scoured around for a bit looking for an answer to a stupid question without success, so I'll pose it here. Currently I am working on a bit of Java code that prints out a document in XHTML 1.0 Strict Transitional. The document displays a formatted list of stock information. What I want is an <option> drop down list with the days of the week, and upon clicking on one of those days, the page automatically refreshes to show the stocks for that day. So very simple, I need for the page to change to a different .html file in the same directory onmouseup, I believe the action is. Here is my .java code, for those interested: Code: import java.util.*; import java.lang.*; import java.io.*; import java.text.DecimalFormat; public class Portfolio { public static ArrayList<String> stocks = new ArrayList<String>(); public static DecimalFormat fmt = new DecimalFormat("0.##"); public static int tot = 0; public Portfolio(){} public static void main(String[]args) throws IOException { stocks.add("APPL 5.67 3"); stocks.add("DFG 54.87 78"); stocks.add("DGSF 93.62 5"); printPortfolio(stocks); } public static void printPortfolio(ArrayList<String> strar) throws IOException { String stockName = new String(); double stockVal = 0.0; int numShares = 0; StringTokenizer st; stocks = strar; PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter("Portfolio.html"); out.println("<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"); out.println("http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd\">"); out.println("<html xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">"); out.println("<head>"); out.println("<title>User's JSMS Stock Portfolio</title>"); out.println("</head>"); out.println("<body>"); out.println("<img border=\"0\" src=\"ball16.gif\" width=\"29\" height=\"28\" alt=\"Ball\">"); out.println("<pre>"); out.println("STOCK NAME PRICE SHARES OWNED TOTAL"); out.println("---------- ----- ------------ -----</br>"); for(String str : stocks) { st = new StringTokenizer(str); stockName = st.nextToken(); stockVal = Double.parseDouble(st.nextToken()); numShares = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken()); if(numShares > 0) { String SN = new String(); int nShares = 0; double price = 0; st = new StringTokenizer(str); SN = st.nextToken(); int numS = 25 - SN.length(); out.print(SN); //inserts # of spaces after data based upon data string length while(numS > 0) { out.print(" "); numS--; } price = Double.parseDouble(st.nextToken()); out.print("$" + price); double tumS = 18.0 - (Double.toString(price).length()); //inserts # of spaces after data based upon data string length while(tumS > 0) { out.print(" "); tumS--; } nShares = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken()); out.print(nShares); numS = 19 - (Integer.toString(nShares).length()); //inserts # of spaces after data based upon data string length while(numS > 0) { out.print(" "); numS--; } out.println("$" + fmt.format(nShares*price) + "</br>"); tot += Double.parseDouble(fmt.format(nShares*price)); } } out.println("--------------------------------------------------------------------"); out.println("Stock Portfolio Net Worth : " + "$" + fmt.format(tot) + "</br>"); out.println("</pre>"); out.println("<p>"); out.println("Please Choose a Day:"); out.println("<br /><br />"); out.println("<select name=\"day\">"); out.println("<option selected=\"selected\">Monday</option>"); out.println("<option>Tuesday</option>"); out.println("<option>Wednesday</option>"); out.println("</select>"); out.println("</p>"); out.println("</body>"); out.println("</html>"); out.close(); } } At the bottom you can see a simple option list. This is the one that I want to be the day-chooser. In many of the places I've looked it talks about passing the value of the choice to a server. This is not my intention. I am thinking, possibly stupidly, that I can store the value of the choice in a variable and then in javascript have the page refreshed to the corresponding .html file in the directory. If this is the case, example code would be very much appreciated haha. Thank you! |
