You cannot. JavaScript is client-side, Perl is server-side. The only thing a web page can do is request a Perl-driven page, and the Request is either GET (pass the values on the querystring) or Post (pass the values in a Form). So a typical technique is to have a hidden …

I too, am confused by this thread. Is the original poster asking a question? If so, please spell it out.

No one knows. Google doesn't really provide any useful information on the matter - they simply [I]pretend[/I] to. Then all the SEO folks [I]pretend[/I] to understand the issue. In short: don't worry about it. Just let things take their (un)natural course.

Why would a bot care about white-space characters or code comments? No, such a tool would have no adverse effect.

You can't have a forum without a back-end database. You can't interact with a database except with a server-side langauge. The most popular, supported server-side languages are PHP, ASP, and ASP.NET. You're leaving yourself little or no options.

It won't be 'indexed' as "Welcome". The overall impact of that is probably too small to measure, however, in terms of 'ranking'. In the future, for questions about SEO and SERPs, etc., please post in the appropriate sections on Daniweb. This forum is for programming questions.

The JavaScript window.print() method simply passes a print request to the underlying OS, which will bring up a dialog box. The user will select portrait or landscape from that box. In other words, print orientation is up to the user, as it should be in my opinion.

The File Control presents a standard "File Open" dialog. You have no control over the user's OS. They can certainly navigate their own directory structure.

You can style your table elements with "nowrap" to force the table to be a certain width. That way instead of collapsing when the window is tiny, users will have to scroll instead. [code]td { white-space: nowrap; }[/code]

I use Visual C# 2005 Express. I too am glad it's free. I too would recommend it as a resource for C# developers. I fail to see the controversy here.

Setting a page to 100% is easy. Designing a banner that does so is different. Essentially, you have to divide your image into 3 pieces, a left and right, and a center pieces that is a simple sliver of solid color. That is the piece that will "expand" to fit …

I don't think you can do this. An image used as a background is just that, a background. It simply isn't a hyperlink. Find something else within the table you can hyperlink.

The canonical example(s) for menuing in JavaScript are the Suckerfish menus. A simple web search should reveal several sites and variations. Pick the one that best suits you, study the code, make any adaptations as you see fit, and post specific questions if you have them.

What precisely do you mean by "data between pages"? POST and GET describe communication between a web page (client) and a web server application. Of course POST and GET can be encrypted. That's what certificates and the HTTPS protocol are all about.

Let's not start that debate again. It's been covered here, there, and everywhere already.

Please use the "shift" and apostrophe keys on your keyboard, where appropriate. We don't like "sloppy" posts here. What doctype are you using in your pages? The proper way to reference HTML elements is to give each element a unique "id". Then, to return a reference to the element (so …

If you want a system (regardless of platform or IDE) that allows comments to be stored, and then incorporated into a page, you are developing a "server-side" application. You have to have some means of storing sumbitted content. That usually means a database. You have to have a language that …

Look at the "gzip" stuff, in the System.IO.Compression namespace. I think you'll find that a 3rd party zip library is the way to go. I think the one I ended up using was SharpLibZip.

A web application of course wouldn't have any of the standard OS controls. It's a web application, not a fat client application. The only reason to ever present the user with a "File" dialog box is so they can upload a file. The standard HTML "file input" form element has …

Interesting thread. I couldn't possibly list them all... reading is my number one hobby. I own thousands of books. I have to list all of the sci-fi classics and their authors: Asimov (Foundation Series/Robot Series)... Heinlein, Clarke. Gibson (the man who coined the term "cyperspace'). I'm reading Neal Stephenson. Lots …

"Java" isn't synonymous with "JavaScript". Two entirely different languages and methodologies. VBScript is Microsoft; JavaScript is open-source. Go with JavaScript.

I don't believe this is possible. As you say, once you close the parent, the reference to it is nulled. I've never heard of "PDOM".

Actually, I think the whole "fun nonsense name" thing is played out. Since the biggest concern with Search Engines nowadays is Privacy, I'd be curious what your stance is on the issue, and if you've taken privacy and copyright issues under consideration, perhaps your name could reflect such.

I get the same behavior.

There is no shortcut. You have to learn about PHP programming, as well as database design. Get yourself a good book on "PHP and MySql" and do the work. Most databases are very similar, but the design principles are very important to learn so that you create a database structure …

A config file is used to store application settings. Database connection strings, for example. This is so anything about the application which might need to change at some point, can be changed by the user editing the config file, rather than requiring a programmer to change hard-coded settings and recompile.

Please provide a link so we can see what you're describing. It's hard to visualize. Are you using CSS and a proper DOCTYPE? Have you set the padding and margin properties for all elements appropriately?

Research JavaScript's "return" keyword. If the user clicks cancel, you want to "return false" from your procedure, which will cancel the default action and/or exit the script. So, you have a "submit" button. You code the "onclick" event handler, to a function which issues a confirm. If the user presses …

I wrote this tuturial regarding [URL="http://www.tgreer.com/aspnet_html_04.html"]dynamic controls in ASP.NET[/URL]. I hope it helps.

Most templates are read-only. If you want to modify it, change the attributes (right-click, properties, etc.). In the future, please don't bump threads that are over a year-old. Also, use complete, professional English. Thanks.

Please use code tags. Please use English, rather than bizarre abbreviations. What you're describing is normal behavior for the "GET" method. By definition, GET places values on the querystring. Sorry. There is no way to secure a website using either GET or POST.

An ISP is a business, not a U.S. Government agency, so the 1st Ammendment (freedom of... expression) doesn't apply. If an ISP blocks a website's ability to express itself to you, that is completely THEIR right, and doesn't violate anyone else's consitutional rights. So, I'm not clear what "personal rights" …

Every compiled program has dependencies. .NET programs require the .NET Framework. There is no way to write a program in th .NET environment without .NET Framework on the client machine, as WaltP keeps stating. You could write in another language, such as VB 6.0, but it requires the vbrunxxx.dll as …

You can only have one background, for any given element (such as the body itself). However, you can have an overall background color, with an image fixed at the top that fades into that color. Have you seen something somewhere close to what you want? Give us a link, and …

Try "borderLeft" instead. One of the unfortunate aspects of web development is that the CSS property may or may not have a corresponding JavaScript property, and they don't always map directly to each other. Also, as you can see, the spelling will differ. So, "style.borderLeft" is the JavaScript property that …

Welcome to you both. I moderate the HTML & JavaScript coding sections, so I'll see you over there. However, I don't know or care about SEO, and am kind of a Google-cynic/skeptic. We have a separate section for SEO, however, full of people who can dispense reasonable advice on the …

I have no idea what you're asking. Please be more specific!

I have an existing, perfectly functional, wireless network at home. The router is a NetGear WGT624v2. I understand SSIDs, WEP and WPA security, etc. I also work at home, and my company has provided me with a laptop and router/firewall, a CISCO PIX 501. My current configuration: [code] Cable Modem …

Actually, you would use CSS: [code]<input type="text" style="text-align: right">[/code] I'm not sure what language the other poster is coding in; probably ASP.NET/VB.NET.

May I make a suggestion? Have you explored the blog section? HTML and Web Design advice and experiences might make a good blog.

First, there is a difference between Jscript and JavaScript. They are two different languages. Second, I don't know of any OS that will copy fully-formatted HTML to the clipboard. Sorry.

I know nothing about Dreamweaver, sorry. There is no magic to adding a PDF to your site. You simply upload it to your server as you would any other file. When the user browses to it, they either view or download the PDF depending on their system configuration.

You can do this a variety of ways. To give you the best answer, we need to know more about you and your capabilities. For example, do you do any server-side coding at all? PHP, for example? Or do you want to do this all with client-side code?

Are you writing a web server? Or just a "site"? These headers are intended to be sent by the web server itself. If you are using Apache or IIS for example, you just need to code your pages, starting with the DOCTYPE declaration, and you don't need to worry about …

I moved this thread; it isn't a PHP question and you'll likely get better responses here. Yes, Dani is still the owner. Yes, she's continually changing/improving/evolving the forum. Do you like or dislike the changes?

What you have are two [I]rules[/I]. The first rule applies to every element with the class of [I]test1[/I]. The second rule applies to every element with the class of [I]test1[/I], as well. In addition, the second rule applies to any element of class [I]test2[/I] which is a descendant (child, child …

You need to ask a specific question, in order for anyone to help.
