Those must be server-side programs, not part of a web page.

Why are you insisting on using a proprietary system? It requires the user reading the page to have the software.

Use standard file formats. Be compatible!

Why do that? Just change the settings in My Computer and in your browser so it asks you what to do with the file each time you view a video. Save is an option there.

The greatest threat to world peace is governments.

Give a man a fish, and you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish, he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day, and his wife will finally get things done in the house without him sitting in the way all the time.

Teach a man to fish, and:

- You get rid of him on weekends.

- He starts to smell like one.

- You get a house full of fishing tackle.

- Soon there's no fish left in the lake.

- He sits in the backyard all day practicing his cast.

- Game wardens keep stopping his Mercury looking for illegal levels of fish.

Many of the ads are too stupid to believe. Of course, since the ad is stupid, I remember the stupid part, and forget who the ad was supposed to remind me of.

:) That is one level harder. But, one can understand as long as the words are familiar.

They are all familiar words. I just discovered a way to keep you form seeing the words. Here is the plain text:

"This is a counterexample to the assertion made above, yet it follows the requirements given in the above original post. But nobody can correctly interpret its contents without a laborious endeavor."

In other words, I proved the original assertion false with a counterexample.

The assertion works for short words, but not for long ones. Also, the original text in the assertion kept most syllables together. I didn't.

I'm not certain exactly how one would "do atheism" in public. Have you ever seen anything that would qualify? I can't say that I have really, so that one is a bit confusing.

By demanding freedom from religion.

California has 2/3 of the lawyers in the US because New Jersey got to choose first. They chose toxic waste instead.

One thing that is not an energy source is hydrogen.

It is a means for storing energy obtained elsewhere. But there is a 40 percent energy loss penalty in the amount of energy it can store.

If the entire show repeats, and it all fits into the user's Internet cache, it will download only once.

The following is NOT an internet compatible address. Web browsers do not know what to do with it, unless the user's browser is running on the same computer this path refers to. "C:\AA\bin\my_html.html" Instead, you MUST refer to a file on the host computer in web compatible format. The rules:

- The starting point is the home directory of your web page.

- Drive letters don't mean anything to the web format path. Your entire website must be within the folder the ISP gives you. You may NOT use C: in your path. It makes no sense on the Internet.

- Unless your PC is a server with a registered domain name, nobody on the Internet can read files on your PC. The files have to be on a server to be read.

That's an image. You have to edit the image to change the colors. Display one image for winter, another for spring.

Step 1: Learn XHTML.
Step 2: Learn CSS.
Step 3: Validate all yo0ur code at W3C.

Your script seems to be taking too much control, preventing the mouse from clicking things.

I noticed that the arrow point images are not appearing. Where do those come from, and what kind of file are they?

Please elaborate. What is the purpose of the tree?

Try the textAlign style.

But it may not work. The text alignment of a text box or a text area depends on the data type it is used for.

It's a security setting.

Most browsers don't like to rescale if they don't have to. Instead, they will leave the object as large as the largest thing that has used it so far.

A few tips:

- Choose a more entrenched image format (e.g. .jpg). Newer formats are harder to get to work the way you want them to.

- You may have to make a separate page for each image to get this to work the way you want it to.

- Centering used to be easy. It is now one of the hardest things to do reliably in web page design.

Is your internet cache too small?

Fruitcake hockey is more fun.

Scru...i'm only mentioning what the news report said, they had no proof that the child had physical scars....and yes...they charged him with 'battery'.

The problem is that those who want spanking banned exaggerate the report so it looks like more than spanking. The phoned report to police on a battery charge for a spanking I witnessed was a "savage beating."

I could tell a lot better if I could see the actual web page. How about a link?

I can't see the site, because I am not a member.

The only way to get movement in pure html is with an animated graphics file.

What browser is that?

It might be a browser issue.

Now this is interesting: When I opened it the other day, it worked. Today, I can't scroll left either.

Questions:

1. Do you have a script which calculates the location of objects? If so, is it calculating a negative value with a small browser window?

2. Are you dynamically resizing anything?

3. I noticed that the left edge of the ad is always at the left limit of the scroll. Is the software that puts the ad on doing this? (Try it without the ad on a local computer.)

There are some syntax errors in your CSS and html.

- Values of 0 have dimensions attached. This is not proper syntax. Just put a 0. I do see layout differences when this error is present

- height: 100%; has no meaning in the body tag. The document height IS the 100 percent anyway.

- Title must be the first tag after html.

- You could have a browser-host problem because there are capital letters in some filenames. Some hosts change all filenames to lowercase. Also, IE is not case sensitive, Firefox is case sensitive.

They are not alike. One says html.html. the other says htm.html

Note that your object tag will work on only the computer the file actually exists on. It contains a DOS path, instead of an internet path. It will NOT work when accessed over the internet.

Also note that case sensitivity might enter into the problem. You might have to make the entire path (and the folders themselves) all lowercase to make it work universally.

Can you make the text wrap? Stick a br tag in it?

Also check the sound mixer. The slider for that feature might be all the way down.

I have a problem with IE: It changes settings for itself that I need set differently to run other special software.

The trouble is that the width of the contents is wider than the window width. As I see it, both sides are sliding off the edge, not just the left. You might not see it, because you have more blank space on the right edge.

I am seeing a horizontal scrollbar at the bottom of the page, and it works. I use FF.

Test it by shrinking your browser window to different sizes with Restore Down and dragging the edges.

Is your scrollbar going under the taskbar? I used to have that trouble until I made an adjustment to the taskbar settings (you can't have a double-row taskbar without it hiding something).

Fixes? You must either find a way to resize the images to fit available space, or let them slip under things.

You can put the link in anyway, and use the alt portion of the img tag for the link text.

<a href="myurl.htm">
  <img src="mypic.jpg" alt="Click here for my purpose." />
</a>

The hyperlink is active in either case, but the link text doesn't appear unless the picture doesn't load.

But part of the lie is that if you are bad you will receive coal, which is vengeful, even though no one does receive coal becasue it is a lie.

Oh Boy! Valuable fuel!
Oh Boy! Anthracite for my rock collection!

I suggest that you actually READ the Bible with an open mind before you condemn it.

I think hackers prefer to write viruses for windows since vast majority of common people use windows and windows is all the same everywhere .unlike linux and unix

All they need are the weaknesses deliberately left in Windows so advertisers can bombard people with their mindless blather.

Where did you have it last? :icon_cheesygrin:

> I prefer MS-DOS over any of the current systems.
Right....

And you are currently making this post sitting on an MS-DOS system. Great!

No, I have been forced to use Windows, because the Internet is no longer compatible with DOS computers.

But I have multiple computers. I do my research on the DOS computer, because the timesharing and multitasking prevents it from working on Windows computers.

I would like Windows a lot better if Microsoft didn't keep CHANGING it.

In my opinion, operating systems should never change. Every time a software platform changes, research scientists have to do a whole series of tests to make sure the changes don't change the results of the research. Microsoft has made long term research projects very difficult with its periodic changes.

The first amendment prohibits government from restricting the free exercise of religion.

Should government have the right to inflict the politically correct religion's belief that all violence is wrong upon the rest of us.

I contend that all violence is NOT wrong:
- It is not wrong to use self defense.
- It is not wrong to use violence to enforce the law. Police do it all the time.
- Violence is necessary to defend a country from invasion.
- Violence is the only way to stop terrorism.
- Spanking is a necessary part of discipline for children. Those silly timeouts and other methods don't work.

Violence is wrong only when it is used against other people for wrong purposes.

Roads cause traffic like mice cause cheese.

They get it upside down because usually you have the word "up" on the box with an arrow pointing up. But when you turn the box upside down, it now has the abbreviated word "dn" on it with an arrow pointing down.

"dn" is "up" upside down - or is it umop apisdn

Why is abbreviation such a long word?

Anyone for fruitcake hockey?

Actually, his THIRD law is "If anything can go wrong, it will."

He was a naval officer in World War II when he created his laws.

Part of the problem is that the news media often do not distinguish between the religion itself, and some crazed person high on some kind of brain-remover who commits a crime and claims to be doing it for a religion. Often the person making such a claim actually hates the religion he claims to be a part of.

It causes a post I was making to not post.

It's a Pentium 4 running at 1.8 GHz.

I figured it is just greedy ad software stealing all of the cycles. It was the cause of the scrolling problem I reported in the DaniWeb Community Feedback forum last summer.

I shouldn't add extra software, because my computer is used for special purposes which are time critical.

Nope. I know how to do that. I want to know what kind of grammar error this is referring to.

I think the list is made when you log in.

Yes. Nest them in the order you want the parts to fit inside each other.

I just thought of something else. You may be inadvertently trying to change the aspect ratio of the image by specifying both a width and a height. The browser ordinarily will not allow that. It forces the aspect ratio to be correct by ignoring one of the specifications.

I can't open the favorites menu while a moving ad (of the type found on DaniWeb) is on the screen, until the ad stops moving. The ad is using up all of the CPU time, leaving none for mouse operations.
