HTML - Fixed Area On Web Page While While Main Text Are Scrolls?
HI
Im making a site at the mo and im looking to keep the menu and a picture stay in the same position constantly. So when then user moves the scoll wheel only the text are will scroll. I dont want there to be any border or scroll bars around the text, so the only visable scroll bar will be the browsers... any ideas? Similar TutorialsI know I'm probably going to get ridiculed for this being my first post, but I can't seem to find any help elsewhere. I browsed the forum a bit before posting but didn't really know what to look for. OK so this the first website I've ever made and I only have limited html knowledge but so far this is what I have. www.freewebs.com/maurerrj Here is the html: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html> <!-- Created with the CoffeeCup HTML Editor 2007 --> <!-- http://www.coffeecup.com/ --> <!-- Brewed on 1/15/2007 4:28:49 PM --> <head> <title></title> <style type="text/css"> <!-- .{background: #D6D3C0;}.{background-image: url(http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/3373/newbackground4qp5.jpg);background-repeat: repeat-y;background-position: center;} --> </style> </head> </style><body topmargin="0"> <div align="center"> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr><td colspan="0" width="750"><img height="223" src="http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/7681/banner5im9.jpg" width="724"><td></td> <tr><td colspan="0" width="750"><img height="19" src="http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/7290/fillervh5.jpg" width="724" border="0"><td></td> <tr height="0"><td colspan="0" width="750"><img height="11" src="http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/3912/spacer1hs9.jpg" width="724"><td></td> <tr><td valign="top" width="153"><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="153"> <tr><td><img height="36" src="http://img260.imageshack.us/img260/1838/filler2qj3.jpg" width="153" border="0"></td></tr> <tr><td><a href="#"><img height="22" src="http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/9990/home1pp8.jpg" width="153" border="0"></a></td></tr> <tr><td><a href="#"><img height="22" src="http://img92.imageshack.us/img92/8751/conifersls9.jpg" width="153" border="0"></a></td></tr> <tr><td><a href="#"><img height="22" src="http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/7016/grassesbf3.jpg" width="153" border="0"></a></td></tr> <tr><td><a href="#"><img height="22" src="http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/5920/shrubsvf9.jpg" width="153" border="0"></a></td></tr> <tr><td><a href="#"><img height="22" src="http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/2730/perennialszy4.jpg" width="153" border="0"></a></td></tr> <tr><td><a href="#"><img height="22" src="http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/4079/troughgardenskr9.jpg" width="153" border="0"></a></td></tr> <tr><td><a href="#"><img height="22" src="http://img91.imageshack.us/img91/5199/directionsae8.jpg" width="153" border="0"></a></td></tr></table></div> </body> </html> Anyway, onto the point... I want to make an area to put all of my content like text and images and what not in that main area but I don't really have any idea how to do it. Also the background image isn't showing up in firefox, so if you have any idea how to fix that let me know. But for now I guess you have to look at it in IE. Also, I will be having galleries under the evergreen, perennials, etc. tabs, and I think I want to use lightbox, but I don't know much about it. So any tips with that would help. The lightbox website is http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/ Any help you can give me is TRULY appreciated. I have a web page that has a banner at the top. It is in a div. the main part of my page is also in a div. Using the Z-index parameters and the position parameters on each div, I have the main part of the page scroll underneath the banner. I have a link at the top of the page, <a href="#mondaymtgs">Meetings on Monday</a> Which points to a name anchor on the page. When the link is clicked, it goes to (or scrolls to) The named anchor: <a name="mondaymtgs">Meetings that are on Monday.</a> The problem is this, when it does scroll to the named anchor, It does it such that, the named anchor is at the top of the page, Underneath the banner. I suppose I could just keep moving the named anchor up a little at a time, each time when I move it up, testing the link to see if the page scrolls such that, the point I want I to scroll to appears just below the banner. I am going to have numerous links at the top of the page, pointing To various places on the page. I hate to have to do this for each link. I would rather just put the named anchor where I want it to page to, and have that line show just under the banner. Is there any way to do this? Thanks in advance. Laurence My page scrolls and it shouldn't! Any ideas...? or can I not see the wood for the trees? Link I am attempting to use google analytics on a website someone else developed. I am now in charge of updating this site but am having a problem finding the home page so I may add a google meta tag which would verify me as site owner. The site is at http://www.vandam.com However when I look at the directory on my ftp site and open the file labeled main.html, it looks nothing like the source code I see via the web. What is going on with this. Which file should I be looking for? I'm getting rid of my index.html file, and replacing it with a brand new index.php file. But I have a problem... I have a forum which has an index.php file... If I rename my websites index.php file to homepage.php, am I able to have that page load up when someone visits my website, or does it have to be named index.php? hi Everyone, I have a html form in which i have a text area.I enter some thing in the text area and when i again request for the same html page i want to now display the html page with the changes i made last in the texta area. Can anyone help me out with this doubt. Thanks in advance I have wordpress installed at mydomain.com/blog and I want a simple splash page to show up at mydomain.com. I've created the page in html and it works the way I want it to but I can't get it to show up at mydomain.com. When I go to mydomain.com it shows up as INDEX OF and I can click the splash page file but I want the domain to point straight to the splash file. Thanks for any help you can offer. Hi, I am trying to figure out how to restrict users (guests) from browsing straight to a page within my site. I would like to ensure that all users must access the site via www.mysite.com Example: User- browses to www.mysite.com/pages/interestingpage.php (or .htm) I would prefer to force the "User" to click their manually via the links on my main page. I imagine some sort of session would be required for this. However I do not wish to require users to log in. I've heard that .htaccess or Apache's config file can be used but so far I have not been successful. I do have full access to the server/configuration. Hoping someone can assist. Examples would be most ideal. Thanks! I have a web page that has a gap between the main content page (lower) and the header piece(upper) and I can't figure out how to close this gap.

[.b]hello[/b] ), presses the button and on the main page it displays the code they put in. (hello) Thanks Hey all, I'm not sure if this goes here, but I believe my question is a combination of both HTML and perl (cgi script). I have a website with multiple forms, one being a text area. The user is going to copy/paste test from a file into that text area. The thing is, it has to keep the formatting, so whatever the user typed in the text area is EXACTLY what gets sent through the email. I have worked around this and when using the unix's mail client, i sent it as a content-type: text/enriched. this kept the formatting of the text area and still allowed me to bold some things on the email. What I WANT to do, is send it using Content-type: text/html but still keep the formatting in the text area. Hope this makes sense, thanks. Is there a way to put text in a type of fixed width and height area? If I make a table that is 100 x 10px and type inside it, if there is too much text it will stretch the table until all the text shows inside. I want it to just cut off everything that is bigger than the demensions specified. Hi, i have the following text <td><span (some style stuff) ><a href="http://www.mysite.co.uk">We are a company in the UK that blah blah blah <br /> Our website is great blah blah </a> </span> </td> This is sitting in a table, i'd like the area where the text is located to be hyperlinked (e.g if you go anywhere inside this table cell, the mouse turns to a link) to 'www.mysite.co.uk' etc., not just the text itself.. how can i do this? Thanks P&P Ok, I don't have a way to show you how it's not working, but I would like to put text boxes under each comment picture on my comments page (much like you see on comment sites for MySpace and other networking sites), where the user may copy and paste the code into their own pages and use the images I provide. I found out how to do a basic 'form' with the name being "blank" and the value being the link to my desired image in my FTP, with the "ftp://ftp." taken out and replaced with "http://". So far, all attempts have been futile, and I'm not sure just what I'm doing right or wrong anymore...can anyone help me out? Please note that I'm vision impaired, and it may be somthing as small as me not seeing a particular tag or something, but I doubt it, as I've used my screen reader to read th ecode for me both when inputting it and reading it. I also note that my posts are in larger font so I can read them easier, I'm not telling anyone to do this, only asking, to please reply in size 3-4 for me please...and th kindly Here is an example of what I've done, which didn't work: <form> <input type="text" name="blank" value="<center><a href="http://silverwolfden.com"><img src="http://silverwolfden.com/images/comments/compliments/great_pic/great_pic_10_1_sw.gif" alt="Silver Wolf Den" border="0"></a><br><a href="http://www.silverwolfden.com" maxlength=30 maxheight= 5></a></center>"> </form> If you'd like to see my website (even though there's no way to see what the problem is I noticed ppl were asking to have ppl post the sites they work on it's http://www.silverwolfden.com Hello Everyone, I know it's been forever since I made a post, but I ran into something I can't figure out on my own and I am hoping that someone here might be able to give me a hand. I recently spoke with a potential client that wants to copy a feature on another website: http://batchgeo.com/ as you can see, on batchgeo.com the end user can paste data from excel into the textarea field, then when the user clicks out of the textarea, it formats the data to look like it is in a table. Does anyone know how they are doing this? Thanks in advance for any help. -A i am encountering problem when im inserting "%d" charecters in a text area and click submit button... when i insert those two characters individually it is working... but when i insert those two characters together there the browser is giving following error.... Quote: Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Ok, This might be a bit confusing but ill try my best. On my main website homepage i have a splash image which when clicked redirects to the main website, also in another folder i have a phpbb3 Forum. Below the image on my homepage i have a login box for the forum as well. What i would like to do is to hide that login box unless a keyword is entered before hand, and make the domain.com/forum URL inaccessible unless you login through this route. basically hiding the forum completely so people dont actually know its there. I could do this through .htaccess however i was hoping there was a "cleaner" way to do this. Many Thanks Rob Hi Guys really hope you can help I have a site which runs off a couple of templates and what i need to do is add some code into one of the ditable regions so that it will pic up the Page title and drop it in the body off the page. e.g. the page title is 'Monkey23' and i require 'Monkey23' to automatically show up in the Body of the page. I have hundreds of pages all with different titles and therefore manual titling is not an option. Anyone got any awesome code to help me? Cheers Tom |
