HTML - Little Help/total Noob...

Ok, newbie here...
I have two questions about background pics...

I downloaded an image which I want to use as a background pic. The pic is located in the same folder as the my html script (Wordpad).
I can get it to display but the pic is "broken up"; the image basically cuts off on the right, and then starts over. How can I fix it?

This is a page for my sister-in-law; I wanted to email her a sample page but when I test-emailed it to myself, the background pic didn't display. I am pretty sure it has to do with the path; any recommendations?

Thanks so much for your help!

Hello,
I am doing a coursework which involves adding sub-totals to a grand total.
<javascript>
function update_total() {
$total = 0;
$total = parseFloat(document.getElementById('adult_single_cost').value) + parseFloat(document.getElementById('adult_return_cost').value) + parseFloat(document.getElementById('adult_allday_cost').value) + parseFloat(document.getElementById('senior_single_cost').value) + parseFloat(document.getElementById('senior_return_cost').value) + parseFloat(document.getElementById('senior_allday_cost').value) + parseFloat(document.getElementById('student_single_cost').value) + parseFloat(document.getElementById('student_return_cost').value) + parseFloat(document.getElementById('student_allday_cost').value) + parseFloat(document.getElementById('child_single_cost').value) + parseFloat(document.getElementById('child_return_cost').value) + parseFloat(document.getElementById('child_allday_cost').value);
document.getElementById('total').value = $total.toFixed(2);
</javascript>

I want to output the grand total on another html page, i have tryed doing this by
<script type="text/JavaScript">
<!--
function MM_popupMsg(msg) {
alert(msg);
}

function MM_goToURL() {
var i, args=MM_goToURL.arguments; document.MM_returnValue = false;
for (i=0; i<(args.length-1); i+=2) eval(args[i]+".location='"+args[i+1]+"'");
}

</script>

<h3>Cost:<? echo$_GET['total']; ?></h3>

If anyone can help me, i will be very greatful.

Thank you, Jeeves.

I'm pretty new at creating websites. This is officially my first "REAL" website. I've tried to set up a kind of "league" for Halo 3 players from Kentucky. There are a couple of things I want to do with this site.

1. Make it possible for members to sign into the site.

2. Have some kind of program that will track stats from games that are played between the teams (I'm hoping for some kind of program that I can manipulate offline, then upload to the site which will automatically update scores/ranks/etc. I realize that this may not be possible. Don't judge me too harshly... I am a noob after all...)

3. A professional "feel" to the site.

I would have the page professionally designed, but the people that do that in my area make horrible looking web pages. I would have it designed by someone on the web, but usually people ask for money that is far outside of my budget.

The work that has been done so far has been done by me during any spare time I have away from my job. If you want to take a look then by all means go to http://www.ekhlonline.com .

Any kind of help that you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ok I know how to create simple html web sites but I want to make my links appear in the following format like in many pages out there - http://www.digitalplayers.org/index....roducts_id=103

instead of showing the actual page like - http://www.digitalplayers.org/main.html
I know it's a stupid question and I'm almost sure it's got something to do with php? can you point me to some sort of tutorial for this?

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

okay, so i'm editing my blog and i want to add my own picture to appear as the wallpaper. the blog doesn't have the option to upload your own picture so i have to modify the html. since i'm a noob at html, i looked up some tutorials, but i didn't quite understand it. could someone please help me?

so, i copied all of my html code from the blog he

http://pastebay.com/103487

so, could anyone tell me where do i need to paste the pic's url to get a wallpaper.

tnx very much!

I'm using Amaya to write some really simple HTML. If I insert any characters in the range 128-255 (e.g. the degree symbol, 176, or non-breaking space, 160) then instead of embedding '&nbsp;' or '&deg;' into the document it actually puts in the byte sequence 0 194 0 176 (degree symbol) or 0 194 0 160 (non-breaking space). In hex these sequences look like 00 C2 00 B0 or 00 C2 00 A0. So it appears that 194 (xC2) is some kind of escape character. However I can find no documentation anywhere which mentions that this is valid HTML - can anyone point me at some?

hi guys, I have this code he

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1251" />
<title>Under construction</title>
</head>

<body style="background-color:#121212">
<div style="background: url(under_construction.jpg) no-repeat center top ;
    height: 1024px;
    margin: auto;">
</div>
</body>
</html>

the image under_construction.jpg is basically the page itself, it has a size of 1680x1024. As of right now the page doesn't adjust automatically to the users screen. Please help me change the code so that it'll adjust automatically to the user screen

I am trying to run HTML code from my Mac. i have it coded in textedit, and when I try to open in Safari or Chrome, I see the actual code itself.. Instead of the content is suposed to display.

Thank you in advance for your help

Hello all!!
Well I'm new to the HTML thing and I just started my first page. I have a few specific questions that i'll list below. I'll end with the source code for everyone to see how the design works and feel free to let me know if something is wrong. I'm open to all comments, positive or negative, but I'd like everyone to keep in mind that this is my first site so be nice.. I'm shy and I have a fragile ego... lol...
Desired Appearance


View Larger


1.) The spacers between the buttons match up perfectly and the beveled look is preserved.
2.) The excess space continues to the bottom of the page.
3.) A list of links also appear at the bottom of the page. I have the links already created but I'm not sure how to force the text to the bottom.

Browser Appearance


View Larger

1.) The top and left side of the table seems to have a margin of 10px. How do I get rid of this or am I, by using a table, causing it to do this?
2.) I created a table inside a table to provide correct alignment, however, a single pixel still remains for each of the table column borders. If you look closely you can see how this ruins the look of the design for the section.
3.) I'd like for the bottom row of the table to align with the bottom of the page. I may use either a scrolling section in the text area or leave it as a full page but I'd like the bottom row on the bottom.

Greetings.

My name is Sodredge and recently I have become the largest humbled webmaster out
here. All of my forms have taken a dump and it has been so long since I have written a real one out that I have forgotten most of the process. As odd as that sounds. I am looking for some general help. I have looked on the net though can not seem to find a page where someone has taken a form from start to finish.

I can write a form no problem though I am unable to make it work when posting.
I recall I need a "handler" I have that written out, in an ending tag or .cgi also .pl
and my HTML form co insides with that written out handler. I have placed the
.cgi and .pl files into my cgi-bin folder on my server and posted my forms though when the submit button is hit all I get it the "Forbidden & Not Authorized" responses.

I really need help, can anyone recommend a site or some links or anywhere I can go to relearn the back end of forms ? I am so lost and this is so humbling. I do not want
to go and dust off my Front Page, because that just seems more trouble then it is worth.

Any takers ???

Okay well the way i have done my website is quite simple i made the site in photoshop and the sliced it up and used dreamweaver to do the whole html thing, but in the main page i have the box for news and do not know how to make it so i can have it like scrolling because the way it's now is just a grey box.

this is the site; Da-nexgen.com

If there is a site or something that teaches you better how to make a site from photoshop please let me know.

Hello everyone, I have got a very noob questions which I tried to look for an answer from the internet but I couldnt get a result from the search engine. I hope u guys here around are professional and could be able to help me out with it.

I want to know if I could hyperlink multi-areas on only one file. For example, I have an JPEG image which has couple of pictures on there, and would like to hyperlink each of the photos into different links. If yes, how to do, any specific site that teaches this techique. I needed it so badly and really hope u guys can help out.

THanks alot in advance!

Is it possible to loginto this site by using the url?

Like the same way you can turn this:

Into this:

You know what I mean? Been tryin to figure this out for hours

What Im trying to do is create boxes with curved corners. I can't see to figure out why the top left corner is not showing up, or the gaps in the border along the sides. I tried posting for help in the CSS forum but didn't get any response.

what Im not understanding is how the code knows what graphic to pull from the sprpanelcrns.png file for the various corners. So if someone could explain it to me or provide me with a link or url that has an explanation I would greatly appreciate it.
