jquery has literally hundreds of gallery scripts. Or you could use google to find pre-built scripts specifically built for galleries, but as an ex-lecturer, I can tell you using a pre-built script will get you a lower grade. You would get a better grade if you wrote your own gallery.

So just check under Tools> Options >Content that you haven't disabled Javascript by accident. Formatting your hard drive is always so very destructive and disruptive, and is only recommended …

CSS is a set of instructions on how the html should be styled. so with no html, it would be just totally plain text, and thus not stylable. Your friend is just wrong.

Nice effect The effect would be even better if the first image in each case was, for example, a black and white version of the revealed image. Several other options are also possible for your initially displayed images (the coloured blocks for those who didn't view the source code)

As far as I remember, in pure relational algebra, you quite simply cannot add an identical item to the set. So the set of colours {red, orange yellow, green, blue} cannot have a second colour red added at all. In databases, you are relying on a primary key to prevent …

I think that should be an OR not an AND between the two bracketed conditions.

read up on php scripts and the mail() function. Be aware that spammers will try to hi-jack your mail form to send out spam to other people, so you need to check the data input and cleanse it of unacceptable data.
