Ok, I edited the link. Don't waste your time. If you really want to read psuedo-scientific b.s., try "Science Made Stupid (http://www.besse.at/sms/smsintro.html)". The only difference is that it is...

You do an excellent job of keeping the forum moving. Meaning, you never say "ok, now this is good enough". Always tweaking, always testing. That's good, even if it causes some ruffled feathers now...

CSS cannot stretch an image: a browser is not an image editing program. CSS can repeat an image, but the image must be designed naturally to tile well.

The typical technique is to divide an image...

After a certain period of time, you cannot edit your post.

Your page is missing a doctype, so I'm not sure which version of HTML you're writing. However, since all the tags are lowercase, I can...

I strongly disagree, and in fact so does Daniweb's official rules. Communication is about conveying "the message" as clearly as possible. Here, that means writing your posts in conventional, standard...

A web browser, regardless of which, can only communicate to a web server via an HTTP REQUEST, which come in two flavors: POST, and GET.

POST = A form.
GET = A querystring.
