 | Hi Beeej21 - These guys seem to be doing a pretty good job of taking care of you - let me just throw in a quick suggestion. Whenever you're using a table cell background to display an image, it's ALWAYS a good idea to fill the space with something. As … |
 | Hi everyone, I'm a bit new to Ruby *and* Rails, and I'm struggling with a task I'm trying to accomplish. I'm attempting to build a simple Rock-Paper-Scissors game in Ruby on Rails, and I'm a little lost as to where to begin. It seems to me that the app will … |
| | Okay, I currently have IPB, and I really like it. It's quite powerful. But I like the way phpBB allows you to sort of export news articles to a front page before your forums, etc. So I'm thinking about switching. IPB vs. phpBB... Advantages, disadvantages of each? Which would you … |
| | I would venture to say that the solution is to get a better HTML editor. FrontPage is dated. Not to mention it wasn't that great when it first came out. Keep in mind that this is a program that's almost ten years old at its latest version. You have to … |
| | Okay... I'm gonna say what I'm pretty sure everyone else who has read through this thread is thinking. cfajohnson, That's enough. Really. Not only are your web design practices outdated (W3C now recommends XHTML over HTML), you have done absolutely [i]nothing[/i] to contribute to this thread or help the OP …  |
| | Re: xhtml forms Hey beforetheyknew, Try omitting the "/" in the opening tag: [code=XHTML] <option value="d">d/ Talking</option> [/code] If that doesn't fix your problem, post the code for the entire form (beginning with [icode]<form>[/icode] and ending with [icode]</form>[/icode]) and we'll break it down from there. |
| | Re: hover codes Mindy, If you could elaborate on what you mean by "hover codes" it would be much easier for us to help you. Check out [url]http://www.w3schools.com[/url] for a lot of great tutorials on HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and virtually any other topic related to web development. |
| | Lukas, I think I have a solution for you - Whenever you define an image in CSS, it should be placed in single quotes: [code=CSS]background: url('Images/header.png') no-repeat;[/code] I think missed or misused quotation marks are probably responsible for at least half of the problems people experience with (X)HTML and CSS. … |
 | Hey drewpark88, I think I've got your solution: [CODE=CSS] #navcontainer { margin: auto; position: relative; width: 850px; } [/CODE] First, we set all margins to automatic. Then, define position as relative. (Remember, defining absolute position will take your div out of the context of the layout and start it at … |
| | Hey everyone, I always come to DaniWeb whenever I need help on something - you guys have all the answers! Here's my issue today: I am interested in learning how to use a database to manage content on a website. I've built SEVERAL websites in the past, and I know … |
| | I believe I am in the same class as Her-o! I'm a bit further along, but not much - perhaps someone can help me. Here's my issue: Part of our program requires us to represent letters in the phrase to be guessed with "_", spaces with " ", dashes with …  |
| | Hey everyone, I'd really appreciate some input and suggestions on this issue. My friend (who lives across the state from me) recently got a [B]Microsoft LifeCam VX700[/B] webcam (I know, it's a cheap piece of crap. That doesn't mean it shouldn't work.) She's running Windows Vista, dial-up internet connection, and … |
| | Hey everyone, So here's the deal - I've been pretty into website design for a few years now, and I like to think I'm relatively good at it. Over the years I've had a few people ask me to build websites for them, and I used to do it for … |
| | Do some research. Start with HTML, it's the easiest to pick up initially. |
| | I realize that this doesn't help your cause, but it's something to consider - I think that there are other things you could be dedicating your time to implementing on your website. In this age, the display of a web page when it is printed is simply... well, not important. …  |
| | At the risk of sounding like a jerk... (I'm not trying to, but - ) Get over it. When you submit a video to YouTube, you automatically surrender the rights to it. It's a highly public and user-heavy website. There are literally hundreds of computer programs and applications that are … |
| | It would help if we were able to better understand what, precisely, you are trying to do. I'm afraid I can't understand... |
| | Do I understand correctly in that you want to generate a rounded-corner effect using only div properties? If so... At present, there is no legitimate or efficient way of achieving this. Images are a must in this sense. |
| | |
| | My initial reaction is to tell you that you're in way over your head. It's one thing to animate an image or create a cartoon using Flash; it's an entirely different ball game to create an interactive gaming environment (one that will respond to commands entered by the user). However: …  |
| | Ahoy all, This is similar to sagedavis's "Firefox hates my CSS..." post, with a slightly different issue. I've been a Windows user (not necessarily by choice, lol) all my life. We recently redesigned our school website (at gaylordhighschool.org). Like the classic purist web designer, I wrote all the code (XHTML … |
 | 1. Line 20 - <il> should be <li> 2. Line 21/22 - end tags should be </li>, instead of <li> 3. Line 29/30/31 - add </li> to the end of each line 4. Line 34 - each href should begin with the pound sign... as in <code><a href="#contents"></code> That's all …  |
| | Hello, I'm designing a website for a local theater company. Because this will be their first experience with an online presence, I've also been put in charge of designing, hosting, and maintaining the website. My first instinct was Yahoo! Small Business or perhaps Geocities, but after visiting their website, I …  |
| | I'm considering domain name registration with Yahoo! Geocities. I've used their free service for years, but I'm think about finally gettting a .net domain. Any thoughts on the service before I start? |
| | Hi Everyone, I'm gonna try to make this as easy as possible to answer, but I've got some questions about this... I want to put a feature on my website where visitors can comment on an article or feature through a form by leaving their Name and then their Comments. … |
The End.
