HTML - Strange Characters In Middle Of A Word
I'm getting strange characters right in the middle of a word. The character looks like a rectangle with an X in it in my browser Safari. At a PC at a university the character was different, dots, I think.
Here is the code for the relavent line: <LI><U> La Primavera: Music for voice, lute, viola da gamba and recorder from the English Renaissance</U> You can listen to the whole CD at Magnatune Records and it is also available <A HREF="luteCD.html#Total running time: 59:22"> <strong> here </strong></A>). Played lute as well as produced and arranged music from the late Renaissance featuring lute songs and instrumentals <BR> <align = 'right'> <a href = "mainpage.htm#Why">Back to Home Page</a> </right> Strange. The characters appear in the preview window for this message but not the window I'm typing in now. If you see the characters, there is no need to visit my page, but here is the link to the page. The troublesome line is at the bottom. http://www9.plala.or.jp/edurbrow/personalhistory.html TIA Similar TutorialsHi, I'm a newbie, and have taught myself from books and the web, so please be patient with me! I have noticed these symbols appear at the bottom left of my index page: My site is http://www.artish.com.au. It doesn't appear when I check the page before uploading it. It only seems to appear in IE (firefox doesn't show it). Just wondering what it is, and how to get rid of it? Thanks in advance for any help offered...

I'm creating a new instant messenger program and can't get the tables to stretch properly. Firstoff, when the messenger loads, you will not see the address bar, status bar, menu bar, etc. I want to be able to resize the browser (messenger) window to any size, just like you would with msn for example. I have 3 tables. 1) The first one will contain all the header graphics etc and I want this table to stay aligned to the TOP of the browser window. 2) The middle table is where the chat conversation text will go. The chat text will be aligned to the top of this window. This is the window that I need to stretch to vertically automatically when you resize the browser window. 3) The last table is where the message entry box will be. I want this to stay aligned to the BOTTOM of the browser window. Right now, my MAIN TABLE which contains all of the messenger content does stretch to fit the screen, but how the heck do I get the three tables inside it to be aligned how i need them??? Here is the basic code that I'm working with: <html> <head> <title>Site Title</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css"> </head> <body> <table id="fullheight" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%"> <tr> <td> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="100%"> <tr> <td width="100%">Header goes here - Stays aligned to the top of the browser window</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="100%">Middle chat content - automatically stretches vertically when the browser window is resized</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="100%">Message entry box section - stays aligned to the bottom of the browser window</td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> This is the CSS code that I'm using which makes the MAIN table expand to fit the entire browser window: html, body { margin:0; padding:0; height:100%; border:none } #fullheight{height:100%} Can anyone please help me out? Thanks! Hey guys! On the site I'm working on, I have made overflow:hidden, scrollbars:none, and body scroll=no. It works fine. But when I press and hold the scroll wheel on my mouse to scroll left and right (Middle Click Scrolling), it actually scrolls. How do I disable middle click scrolling? This is my first post here so I apologize if I've done something wrong. Thank you! EDIT: It also scrolls when I use the arrow keys! Help Help, Can anyone tell me why my website is splitting down the middle. In other words when I scroll down it looks like the left half and right half don't match. It happens on all computers. And, how do I fix it? The url is www.gotobreakingthrough.com Thanks how do you make it so the video is displayed in the middle of the browser? (I already got it in the center but I want it in the middle of the browser as well) Thanks. <center> <OBJECT ID="MediaPlayer" WIDTH="100" HEIGHT="100" CLASSID="CLSID:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95" STANDBY="Loading Windows Media Player components..."

I am feeling really stupid right now that I can't get it. I've tried a few different things and it's not budging!!!! Please help - thanks! 1st time post and an amatuer with no formal teaching of html. I have placed an image on my web page and i want the text i enter to center itself next to the image. I have used align="Center" or Align="middle" and it does that perfectly for the 1st line of text. The issue is when the text spills over to the next line it goes under the image. I have tried a <br /> after the last word of the lines and that did nothing. How can I get all the lines to be centered? Centered meaning from top to bottom not side to side. Thanks, Cardgunner I know "<br>" causes a line break outside of a string, but how can I insert one INSIDE a string? Ex: <textarea value="" > example text <LINE BREAK> more example text </textarea> First off I want to say that I'm new to this forum. Thanks in advance for the help you can give to a noobie. Here's the "dummy page" I put up: http://www.mrcrepe.com/work.html The table I made in dreamweaver. I put it as 900px wide with 1 row and 2 columns. The border color I made a redish/pinkish color as you can see on the outsides, but how do I make that "separater border" into the same color? Right now it's just that silver line. Thanks in advance. -Brian Hi, I have problem with XHTML CSS vertical align middle. It works with Firefox but not with IE6. Many people has IE6 still so I need to get it to work. HTML Code: <div style="height: 128px;">text</div> How would I middle vertical align the text? HTML Code: <div id="table_small"><div id="table_vm">Special Offer</div></div> HTML Code: #table_small { background-image: url('images/table.jpg'); width: 128px; height: 22px; border: 1px solid #5a5a5a; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10px; color: #e0e0e0; text-align: center; display: table; } #table_vm { display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; } Hi everyone, I'm trying to work out how to have a left and right side "column" both resize when the window is resized. An example of what I am after is : http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/0,,,00.html. I played with margin-left and -right but don't think it is quite what I am after. Thanks. How do I make the content of my page be in a box in the center? Like, erm, lemme find an example. Like this kinda. See how all the stuff is in the middle, and there are two border type things on the outside? Sorry for sounding like such a beginner or whatever, but I have no idea how to explain this. Hi, In WordPerfect, I could point to a blank part of the page and start typing. Can Word do that? I'm having a really bizarre problem on my site here http://www.onlykitchens-almunecar.co...signvisit.html On this particular page I have a form that is working fine in firefox but the page won't load in IE only from today and I don't think I have changed anything The form is working fine in firefox and posting ok and returning errors as i am using this form validation script Code: <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- /*********************************************** * Required field(s) validation v1.10- By NavSurf * Visit Nav Surf at http://navsurf.com * Visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com/ for full source code ***********************************************/ function formCheck(formobj){ // Enter name of mandatory fields var fieldRequired = Array("Name", "Surname", "Address", "Town", "Province", "Post Code", "Telephone", "Email", "Selection", "Details"); // Enter field description to appear in the dialog box var fieldDescription = Array("Name", "Surname", "Address", "Town", "Province", "Post Code", "Telephone", "Email", "Selection", "Details"); // dialog message var alertMsg = "Please complete the following fields:\n"; var l_Msg = alertMsg.length; for (var i = 0; i < fieldRequired.length; i++){ var obj = formobj.elements[fieldRequired[i]]; if (obj){ switch(obj.type){ case "select-one": if (obj.selectedIndex == -1 || obj.options[obj.selectedIndex].text == ""){ alertMsg += " - " + fieldDescription[i] + "\n"; } break; case "select-multiple": if (obj.selectedIndex == -1){ alertMsg += " - " + fieldDescription[i] + "\n"; } break; case "text": case "textarea": if (obj.value == "" || obj.value == null){ alertMsg += " - " + fieldDescription[i] + "\n"; } break; default: } if (obj.type == undefined){ var blnchecked = false; for (var j = 0; j < obj.length; j++){ if (obj[j].checked){ blnchecked = true; } } if (!blnchecked){ alertMsg += " - " + fieldDescription[i] + "\n"; } } } } if (alertMsg.length == l_Msg){ return true; }else{ alert(alertMsg); return false; } } // --> </script> The weird thing is if i take this code out it loads in IE and when I put it back in it don't. Its been working fine in IE with it in up until today. I need this validation script, and as i said its been working in IE for weeks with it in in. So I suppose what I am trying to get to the bottom of is why it is working in firefox but not in IE? If anyone could help i'd greatly appreciate it! |
