well hmm i dont seem to have that problem... what browser ya'll using? lol

makes your content dynamic... its a programming language that helps control and handle data in and out of databases and other web based applications

dont make pages for ie... make pages using valid standards complient code and test them in a supporting browser (firefox is a good choicce), then adjust them to suit ie afterwards... despite most of all web users using ie i count it as kinda low priority

2 tired to think but instead of setting width in pixels try setting it too 100%, that way it will be the complete width of the window... gotta go sleep though, if that doesnt work some1 less tired may be able to help lol.

wasnt suggesting the w3schools skin, but something at least better than default ipb skin, its old, boring, and extreeeeemely bland.

yea ok i forgot the MIME part off the end, heck its 1.30 am here im not surprised lolz, but yea... well at the moment i dont have a free php host without some form of banner ad or problem (except local apache server) so all i gots is html to work with for now... thats why i wont use ie either... i hate it

ahh ok sorry yes i THINK you can but it's not the same as XHTML it's produced by ?> instead of />... if that doesn't work then i'm not quite sure if possible or not but give it a go.

howdy i like these forums, but as a few people have said they are pretty dead, and the people that do come on them probably think that they could do with a little spicing up... i dont mean flashing disco lights, it should be simplistic, professional, but attractive. many forums use the default skin for stuff, and to be honest its a good skin but pretty bland.came up with a couple of suggestions for the forums:1. new skin... blues and white makes a good contrast and makes a good interface, but i think the skin could be improved a lot, or a new skin would be even better. making the forums looks attractive would increase the chances of people sticking to them, and coming back to them each time they have a problem.2. on each post where it shows their profile i think it could do with showing what programming languages each member uses the most, or what they specialize in e.t.c. i think this would be a great improvement to the forums, as it gives the person asking the question a bit of a guide of what people around here are capable of. 3. an introductions forum... these are on most forums nowadays n they seem to work a treat. in the welcome email sent to new members you put a link to the intro forum n say post there with ur real name, age, and a few details about yourself, great way to let the members get to know each other and to keep people interested here.just a few suggestions for tha place but i think they would work well

yep i didnt think u were.... n i wasnt flamin u either m8 lolz, sorry if it came out that way n no probs thx for makin that noticable to me lol

brilliant mysql tutorial, covers the basics like ya wanted..http://www.analysisandsolutions.com/code/m...ic.htm#creating

ya, jus makin life easier n breakin info down... if they didnt know they had to escape html characters then they probably didnt know what it meant... so gave em the code n said what was diff bout code... < doesn't need to be backslashed either

kk yea we are getting a little off topic here but i gotta say this...there is 1 thing stopping me use xhtml 1.1 and that is that ie (my most hated browser) doesn't support the application/xhtml media type... if i want to use application/xhtml i have to go xhtml 1.0 to do so, and even then i have to link to an external xsl file to get it working...when ie7 is released and this is supported... then i will use 1.1 strict... until then xhtml 1.0 strict is for me

lmao yea does make ya sound kinda loopy lol... but tickers often use something along marquee lines... although i did manage to find a decent javascript for marquees which should pass validation http://dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex2/cmarquee2.htm

got link to your page or a snippet of ur asp to look at?

CSS layouts are much better to follow and edit than table layouts... but then tables are a much more effecient way of presenting data. so if you're making a page with say 200 people's contact details, tables would be a much better way of showing the information than div's... if you are making a page such as a forum (like this one) it's much better to use div's as you gain much more control over the layout of everything.

me being kind as i am i tested a few things out for ya lol... if ya put the text into the div inside a paragraph it should vertically align itself... try this.The CSS part...

<style type="text/css"><!--div.container {width: 100%; height: 100%; position: fixed; display: table; }p {display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; }--></style>

Then the HTML part...

<div class="container"><p>This is vertically and horizontally centered.</p></div>

that should work :)Matt

ok browsers WILL support the marquee tag, despite the fact that it is not proper HTML, the only difference is that if you decided that you should validate your HTML/XHTML then you would fail validation. basically if you don't mind having invalid markup then you're good to go.there are 3 or 4 other tags that are out there, not valid HTML tags, these along with the marquee tag are generated by Microsoft, in a language called MS-HTML. MS-HTML quite often will not validate as HTML or XHTML so it's highly not reccommended using these tags. yes the marquee tag will display in all browsers, the other tags will not however. there are also extra tags for CSS as I stated above, again if you validate your CSS it will fail. anything you can do in MS-HTML you can do in HTML and Javascript, so that's the best way to go to make your markup valid, and to make your page work in all browsers.* anyone that uses Internet Explorer I highly suggest dropping it for something along the lines of Mozilla FireFox, as this browser is one of the most standards complient browsers on the net (meaning it uses valid HTML).Download LinksMOZILLA FIREFOXNETSCAPE NAVIGATOR(Plus you will find it near to impossible to get spyware / adware in these browsers. very clever things)

yep exactly... it simply copies the contents from the include file to your main file, so if you put <html><head>.. </head></html> in your include file... it will mean your main file has two html and 2 head tags simple(glad i explained that so well in first post lol)

<link href="filename.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

tried thi one?

you cannot vertically align text alone without using more than 1 div, or a table... this css was meant mainly for aligning objects such as images to the text next to it... if u wana do it with text, do what the other pages designer did, with 2 div's.if ur attempting to do it with an image heres what to do:

vertical-align: middle;

put that in #test... maybe u were using 'center' instead of 'middle'AND also a bit of dodgy css here

body,html {

html doesnt have a style to it, so your css should read this:

<style type="text/css">body {background: #CC3300;text-align: center;}#test {width: 300px;height: 300px;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;background: #FFF;}#text img {vertical-align: middle;}</style>

well in the CSS tutorial there are missing items, but again they are Microsoft's own tags and aren't reccommended

scrollbar-face-color: #; scrollbar-shadow-color: #; scrollbar-highlight-color: #; scrollbar-3dlight-color: #; scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #; scrollbar-track-color: #; scrollbar-arrow-color: #;

... or if you want... use a javascript, where if it's IE it will use the embed tag, if other browser use the object tag. If u wana give this a go, take it easy if it plays up as I'm new to javascript, but do this on a test page if ya want:place this javascript where you want the object to appear:

<script type="text/javascript">  <!--  if (is_ie3up)   {  var object=('<embed src=\"movie.wmv\"></embed>')  }  else  {  var object=('')  }  //-->  </script>

now place your object html underneath or above that javascript... change the src= in the javascript, and add any attributes i.e. width, height e.t.c. but remember if you put a " in javascript it has to be backslashed \" and the same goes for / forward slases \/dont blame me if it doesnt work... and IF it doesn't, put them both into the document.just trying to keep valid markup here and practise newly found javascript skills.

make sure there is a space before your /> so it would be ( />) not (/>)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" /><xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" standalone="yes" encoding="utf-8" /><xsl:output method="xml" doctype-system="[url to a dtd]" /><xsl:strip-space elements="*" />

hope this helps.Matt
