  1. If you want an example of a helpful text editor, look in my signature and download ConTEXT. It doesn't write code for you unless you explicitly tell it to (and, even then, it's code that you yourself wrote previously), but it does syntax color all of your code, you can set it to auto-indent, you can record macros, etc etc. There are a ton of features that are truly helpful, which means that they make development time shorter. Notepad doesn't do any of that, it just saves text files.
    ConTEXT sounds good, but, does it have a viewing screen, like in frontpage (which I avoid at all cost)? If it doesn't I may consider downloading it.
  2. So change the content of the page without switching the page in the browser? Is that what you're going for. There's two ways of doing this that I know of.1)Frames: Frames are sort of outdated I guess. I wouldn't personally use them, they can be very bug prone, and I've never gotten them to work the way I want. They also aren't very trustworthy in my experience.2)AJAX: I'd definately look into doing it via AJAX/JavaScript. I know this is possible, I've seen it done on sites. However, I don't have a clue how (I tried once and failed miserably). But if you don't have much Java Script knowledge, you could try frames.
    Yes, with frames, you simple use this:- href="http://www.websitename.com/framename.html" -I tryed this with my dads website, and it worked fine with frames, because all you are doing is displaying an HTML document, but I am not sure about iframes.JS sounds like a good idea. I couldn't give you the code, but you could try 'redirecting' the iframe (if it is possible)
  3. I think I know what you mean, but I can't help, because the link does not work.It may be my browser, or it may be the link itself.To confirm, you would like an iframe, that will show another iframe, but one at a different web address.

  4. Oh come on, there's nothing helpful about Notepad. The only thing "helpful" is that it doesn't screw up what you write. But it definately doesn't help you.
    I have used Notepad since I was 7, and it has never let me down.Two helpful things is that 1. Is doesn't throw things at you, like when your trying to write some Javascript, it doesn't try and write it for you (and get it wrong). 2. It doesn't produce huge sources, and, unlike frontpage, where if you 'nudge' an object left a bit, it doesn't write 10 lines of script which you don't want, since there is no viewing screen to 'nudge' objects on.
  5. Hello,I wouls stick with the tables, and align them.

       <table align="center" width="70%">        <tr>            <td align="left">            <select>            <option value="N">No</option>            <option value="Y">Yes</option>            </select>        </td>        <td align="right">            This is text for use on the web page.         </td>     </tr>    </table>

    You have to set the width in the 'table'If that doesn't work, try setting the <td> tags to <td align="center">Happy Web Building!

  6. Prateek,Do you want a large amout of images, or not, because in JS, you can flick between a few images, but if you use to many, it just takes ages to load the page. With JS, you could also use Jpegs, which would give better image quality.Go to www.javascriptworld.com: the code is in there somewhere.Hope this helps.

  7. Hi,I use Revalation Natural Art (RNA), which gives you a huge amount of control over the animations. It is aslo simple to use, but, you cannot have 'items' which you can select and move about like in power point.But the GIMP is free, so, get that. Or, download an older version of Serif Draw Plus. You can export to all sorts of things from there (but in my opinion, Draw Plus can't do anything except add fancy styles). Draw Plus is also free, or you can bye the latest version from somewhere.Thanks For Reading!

  8. Your right in that 'div' is more flexible, but tebles can be manipulated inside the body section, so will work with just about any browsers.I have seen a website useing 'divs' were all order is lost i Firefox, but IE manipulates the CSS to resized the 'divs'. So it is problable becasue more and more people are using different browsers to each other, thus having allternat views off the site.Alos, I don't belive CSS has an alternative to the 'rowspan' statment, which I've found very helpfull in tool-menus. 'Justsomeguy' is right. It is all about opinion, browser and what exactly you need doing.Thanks For Reading!

  9. Hi,I am fluent in Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) and VBscript is an attempt at an internet version. Visual Basic is replacing Basic, and it is microsoft (lots of people use microsoft).I belive there is a reason for learning VBscript, because it is not at all dissimilar to VBA (although I keep banging on about this, and VBA is much more capable) and, for people like me who know VBA, is a good way of heading towards learning JavaScript. It certainly helpded me.Thanks For Reading!

  10. Thanks guys, the only problem is that when I click on the text it goes to "webaddress/void:(0)". I have tryed having the href as "" but that opens the website folder quite understantably. If I make it "#" it opens the page again, but that is not what I would prefrobly like.If there is a sulution to this, than I will be very gratfull for it. Once again, thanks!
