First, realize that some people find moving content on a web page very annoying, unless it is demonstrating a concept (such as a moving how-it-works diagram). It interrupts their reading processes, so they can't easily read the stationary parts of the page. The best way to do it I can …

There are several flies in this environmental ointment: - The computer itself uses very little power, compared to other devices in the house, unless it is actually in use. The disk drives use more power than anything else. The power supply wattage ratings includes a reserve for sudden instantaneous power …

Since they are using redirecting code to add code to your page, I don't think you have the power to do that.

Why not just provide a link to the other site? Displaying someone else's video on your site could be a copyright violation.

Not in the usual sense. You could have two pages, one with the div hidden, the other with it shown, and link each page to the other one.

Thius has to be done in a server-side script and database, such as PHP and SQL.

Unfortunately, the W3C deprecated center, and didn't give use anything that works reliably to replace it. They were thinking so much in terms of books and newspapers, that they didn't provide methods for centering things other than text. How to align something depends on what that something is: Text is …

Syntax errors: - You broke the body style with the cursor style without any attributes. - You broke the body style by not putting the # on the beginning of the color string 000000 - There is no url string in the url function.

Maybe the browser doesn't do frames, has frames turned off, or has a script or code in cache that turns off frames.. I don't like frames either.

It seems to be doing that on Firefox. The main part does not shrink. Instead, it makes a horizontal scollbar

Float all of them left, and set their widths to 33.3%. Make sure the divs making the three columns have margins and padding set to 0, borders set to none. Remember that if the browser window is too small, the format will fall apart.

I see a different display than either, and the reason why: - You are using deprecated code with xhtml align="center" is deprecated. - Your filenames may work or not work on different browsers, as some are case-sensitive, and some are not. I suggest that you use all-lowercase filenames. - You …

It should automatically happen that way. BUT If you apply any overall or left margin, border, or padding style to the text in the UL list, or to a containing item, it will cause the automatic indenting to fall apart in most browsers. Use of [code]list-style-position: inside;[/code] forces the bullets …

If you use IE's nonstandard extensions, your code will not work on other browsers. I use two kinds of pages, depending on who I expect to use it: - XHTML 1.0 Strict for pages I expect to be read mainly in the US. The problem is that my ISP adds …

Tables are not deprecated. They are just discouraged for use to format pages for purposes other than tables. If the form is like an invoice form (with several blanks on each line), there is no reason why you shouldn't use a table to contain it. Also, the alternate methods the …

The problem is that different information exists on different computers. When JS writes something dynamic, the client computer knows this, but the server computer can't see it. Meanwhile, the server computer can see only the original version of the page, so that is what it uses. You need ONE server-side …

This may be a browser function, instead of a function of your code. The browser changes the location of a window or image if it can't display it in the specified position. Also, it may be an ownership problem. Parts of that page contain links and ads. It may be …

Subtracting two date variables gives the difference between them, but in an internal representation. getTime will then give the number of milliseconds between the two times. Divide that value by 86400000 to get the difference in days. Real division will give days and portions of days.

Several questions: 1. What format are the variables "etime" and "stime" in? 2. What do you want the value "2" to represent? It's not seconds or days. It is supposed to be milliseconds, but some implementations use jiffies instead (multiples of the Intel 55 ms interrupt period). 3. What units …

I can see two problems: - Modifying code on the fly is always a source of hard-to-locate grief and megamanhours of debugging. Change the attributes of an object instead. - You could be violating copyright by stealing information from someone else's website.

There are errors in this: [code] <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="c:\Calendar.css"/> [/code] That code is referencing a file on your own computer's hard disk. It won't work for anyone else. The string [inlinecode]"c:\Calendar.css"[/inlinecode] is a DOS or Windows disk path. The Internet doesn't know what those are. The only place this …

Increedily??? What's that? My favorite is this one, not so much because of the musical content, but the ingenious way the turntable figures out the record size. [URL]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9hW7dMWqjs[/URL] I'm a tech freak to the end.

Why are you fussing with scripts? Just include the folder name in the published url: [code]www.thisismydomain1.com/site1foldername/site1page.htm[/code] [code]www.thisismydomain2.com/site2foldername/site2page.htm[/code]

If the width of the two images is wider than the width of the browser window, they will not stay side-by-side. Also remember that if you have any margins, borders, or padding on the images, they will behave differently in different browsers.

Word does stupid things with web pages. I use it just to check my speling and grammmer. I make the actual changes in Notepad after seeing what Word says, and then I don't save the Word version.

Self-modifying code is bad business. It is better to set a global variable to the page you want, and request the page in JavaScript according to the variable you set.

Mozilla (FF and NS) REQUIRES all style properties to be in the correct case for the DOM and Doctype used. IE often allows incorrect case in styles and tags. You can't expect to use internal representations of things, because they are proprietary.

You have a < character in your script. You have to have a separate .js file when this happens. Otherwise, HTML parsing begins again at the < character. Also, anyone can read your code and find out the password. You must use server-side processing (not client-side) for passwords.

Possibilities: 1. The file is not placed where you are looking for it. Check your reference. 2. The file permissions are not set for public access. 3. Chek yer speling. You might have a case conflict (upper vs lower). 4. The browser is set to not use that combination for …
