HTML - I'm New! Simple Help Required. Zero Knowledge.
All,
Sorry if this seems too stupid. This is my first question to the forum. If I use Paypal to create a BuyNow button, I paste the html code into my webpage. When I preview the webpage the link is just dead. Is this normal? How do I know the link works? Any suggestions? Similar TutorialsTake a look at my site. Just in the making. www.ringgoldhs.com I want my navigation bar to be horizantal. It is made of individual "image links" Quick help please? 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! ~Michelle~ 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 all, I noticed there are more than a handful of different scripting languages, markup languages, and many different methods to building a modern day website. If im starting from scratch and I would like to build a professional website such as yahoo (homepage), craigslist, e-commerce, etc... A website that allows users to create their own accounts and such, what should I need to know? Is learning HTML + CSS really a good starting point? Is HTML, CSS, CGI + Perl sufficient to having the tools needed to create a good website? Realisticly, do professional web-designers really sit down and write code to create a website or do they use some fancy third-party application that basically does all the work for them? I have always wondered about these questions any help will be greatly appreciated. Hi guys In an effort to have a div with a semi transparent background, I have made two divs - one with the transparency, and another to place over the top for my content. I can't get my overlay div to position correctly - it seems that ie and FF start off placing the div from different positions. The page is at www.popbeatblues.com.au/rw/artist_1.php Also, making the overlay have an absolute position has chnaged the appearance of it's content divs too. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Cheers Shaun Hi, basically i want to open an online clothing store via bigcartel. If i buy a site they said i can add my own html to change the layout etc. I don't know if it would be best to hire someone, or if i would be able to do it myself. I don't know anything about html etc, are there any websites that i can design a website on and get the code? I want something simple, similar to this http://olivemanna.com/ Thank you! Hi, I have a niggling problem that I can't resolve despite googling it to death. I'm sure that it will be simplicity itself for those of you on the forum, so advice please. I have a page - just a normal .net page - the basic structure looks like this: <html> <body> <form> <div id="my-site"> </div> </form> </body> </html> Both the html and body tags have height set to 100%. The html tag has a tiled background-image #mysite has a fixed width set + margin auto to centre the site I also have another background image (currently applied to the body tag). This repeats horizontally across the entire width og the page. The problem occurs when I zoom using Firefox. The content expands as expected, and the image applied to the html tag expands, but the body image stops short of the right side, leaving a gap. I use a rest on my css so margins are set to 0. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks John Hello everyone, I am attempting to use an <a href=".."></a> tag to access a .htm file.

Hi, I'm fairly new to all this and have never styles a table before. I have a small issue with this table below that I can't resolve as yet. HTML Code: <table bgcolor="Blue" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td valign="top" bgcolor="Yellow" height="150" width="150" style="border-right:solid 1px #d2d2d2;margin-right:10px;padding-right:10px">Image</td> <td valign="top"> <table bgcolor="Aqua" width="400"> <tr><td>This is a title</td></tr> <tr><td>This is a description</td></tr> <tr><td>This is where the additional extras go</td></tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> The issue I have is that the first td should have padding, then border, then margin before the next td. The border is showing but no padding or margin is applied. Whilst I'm here I'd like to ask a couple more questions in relation to the table above. Firstly, I have nested a table inside the table - is this the best way or should I have applied a rowspan to the first td? The reason behinf this is that the 2 first level td's both have independent content - the first one houses an image up to 150px high and the second with the table houses variable text, so either could be the longest. Secondly, is there anything you should always do when playing with tables, for instance resetting certain things? The table is to go inside an email, hence the table and inline styling. Please ingnore the color attributes as they are only there to help me with the construction. Thanks in advance.

My submit page (It's an archive-style site where I encourage people to submit their own stories) seems to have multiple problems, including he simple fact that it doesn't seem to display properly. My main issue, and the one I'm asking about here, is that people keep submitting blank forms and I want to make it so the STORY field is required.

I'm creating a form to file webpage for my work. It's just a simple html form that a user can fill out and once they hit submit, the information is saved to a file to be later converted to a spreadsheet or database or whatever. I have several required fields on this form. I was instructed to add a "." after the "Name" of whatever field I am requiring. They all work except my Radio buttons. Regardless if I make a selection (Yes or No) and hit submit, it still says that I need to fill out this field. Here is my code, I have tried several varieties of it, but none seem to work. I am completely new to Html coding so please bear with me. Thank you in advance! <input type="hidden" name="RequireApprovalYesNo." id="RequireApprovalYesNo." value=""> <input type="radio" name="RequireApprovalYesNo." id="RequireApprovalYesNo." value="Yes">Yes <input type="radio" name="RequireApprovalYesNo." id="RequireApprovalYesNo." value="No">No I have also tried (without the "." in the second and third piece of code): <input type="hidden" name="RequireApprovalYesNo." id="RequireApprovalYesNo." value=""> <input type="radio" name="RequireApprovalYesNo" id="RequireApprovalYesNo." value="Yes">Yes <input type="radio" name="RequireApprovalYesNo" id="RequireApprovalYesNo." value="No">No Hi, Sorry if this is not the right place to put it. My friend asked me to look into his friend small website as he is not searchable via google. I had a look at his website and seen that he has been using a "VistaPrint SiteBuilder v20.5" to build his website. His website looked like it was redirecting from a different website address. Inside his code he had the normal links with index.html and products.html etc without the full address but i could see on the bottom of the browser that the address has a subdomain and different address (like URL address bingo.website) once i roll over the links. So i persume he is redirecting the whole website from that address. Also, once i click on the other links his address stays the same as his main index address. e.g (URL address mydomain) (once i click on products it stays the same without the products.html added onto the end). Never seen this before. Is that what that sitebuilder does? Is this a problem for google.....would they blacklist it for that reason. However, when i did the sitemap am i allowed to add the index page as the website address he wants searchable and the other links as subdomain and different address e.g (URL address bingo.website) or i'll just have to use index page alone? |
