  1. XML seems complicated to me, but then again, so did HTML and PHP before I'd started them. Just offtopic, where can I get all this info about the upcoming XHTML and CSS etc, and what they can do?

    Navigation

    Theirs is just made in Photoshop, sliced and put into the page, like this: <a href="blah.html"><img src="blah.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="blah.html"><img src="blah.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="blah.html"><img src="blah.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="blah.html"><img src="blah.jpg" /></a><br />
  8. Yep, this is web programming, not desktop programming. Theres a zillion other sites catering to that anyway. Also, screw buying books, I just hire em out.
  9. Good ol uber-geek-osity...I first downloaded CoffeeCup whatever it is, and yeah didn't learn much. Then I was overjoyed when I found out we had FrontPage...then was even more overjoyed when someone showed me how to hard-code Hello World in Notepad. Then I got HTMLGate.

    Forbidden Error

    XAMPP and any other all-in-one installers generally cause more problems than they solve. A forbidden error is most likely something in your .htaccess folder, or php.ini. Not sure where though.My advice (which I tell everyone) is hire/buy a book on PHP and MySQL and follow there step by step guides to set up your own local server. It may take longer, but much better. Theres also more documentation if you run into errors, and easier to diagnose.

    Forums

    Good luck. Its always a good thing to make your own forums, I want to make one later on when I've mastered PHP a bit more. It'll take a tonne of tables, lots of coding and errors along the way. Don't expect to make an invision power board overnight...start small (just creating topics and replying) then add more things (editing, quoting, search) then the trivial stuff (smilies, layout).
  12. http://www.spoono.com/php/tutorials/tutorial.php?id=36http://codewalkers.com/tutorials/32/1.htmlhttp://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorials/41/0.phpI found those on the net. PHP Sessions start getting into the more advanced side of PHP, so don't get upset if you don't understand it straight away, I didn't. Any more help just ask.
  13. Plus a server...unless you just make a channel on any old server, in which case go make your own. Theres plenty of people here who can be admins and ops.

    Html Books

    They're more accessible, free at a library, don't take time to load, don't hurt your eyes (at least as much), and you can search the index quicker. I only use online resources to check quick codes etc, maybe find out why somethin isn't working, but the bulk of any 'learning' is done from a book.
  15. You could try putting them into session variables, calling session_start() on each consecutive page, and at the end, putting all the session variables into the query.Of course, it needs PHP.

    Navigation

    Theres no set 'navigation box' type of code, its usually just a box with links to the other main pages on your site.
  17. Uhh...are you serious?!?!
  18. Send a confirmation email that they have to reply to I guess. I have NO idea how to do that though.
  19. From what I've heard, you can run them on the opposing servers (PHP on IIS for example) but it's not as good. Things may not work, etc, so imo the best course of action would be to (at least attempt to) re-code it in PHP, or possibly think about giving up the project to an ASP expert.
  20. I just found out, it works perfectly, I also cleaned up your code a bit: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html><head><style type="text/css"><!--body {background-color: #add2ff;}a {font-size: 11pt;font-family: Arial, Verdana, Tahoma;text-decoration: none;color: #333333;}a:visited {color: #000000;}a:hover {color: #FFFFFF;}a:active {color: #000000;}#box1 {position: absolute;top: 200px;left: 136px;}#box2 {position: absolute;top: 442px;left: 136px;}#box3 {position: absolute;top: 200px;left: 386px;}#box4 {position: absolute;top: 200px;left: 886px;}#box5 {position: absolute;top: 455px;left: 886px;}--></style></head><body> </body></html>
  21. Damn. Is there a live version of the site hosted on the net? And does it not work in all browsers or just one?
  22. try changing just body to body, html {}
  23. Funny that, that was recommended in my Javascript book that im currently reading, but I never checked it out.Most things like that that offer free services or scripts are free and can be re-used as many times as you want. Generally, you'll end up downloading a zip file with a few files, and end up copy + pasting code into your page, thats all. Feel free to d/l it, but I also recommend you seek to learn how it works. It will serve you much better in the future and look excellent on a portfolio.
  24. I'd recommend CSS menu, since its both easier and better and sounds cool. Anyways, <ul> menus are basically meant to be used for menus, unlike <center><strong>link<br /></strong></center> etc etc...I'd use lists. You can change the image in teh stylesheet like: ul {list-style-type: url('image.jpg');} As far as i can remember. Tables will take a while to load, and are unnessesary (<-- that just doesn't look spelt right) Image Map doesn't really have a point in a menu as far as I can see.
  25. Well...to each his own. I'll use my highlighting, feel free to use your Notepad...up to you.
