Well basically what i'm aiming for is a free .com address. I figured a home server would do that...

If you choose to go down the road you desire, then this is your resource:http://freedns.afraid.org/Again, just be forwarned, it can get ugly hosting a publically accessible site from your home.

Its a reported bug:https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78087

what you describe (from what I understand) cannot be done in HTML. All HTML can do is play, pause, rewind, and forward a sound bite - unless you prompt it to open in an external player (but then its not in your site now is it).So, what it seems you really need is a little Flash application that you can use to add music to and put in the prompts that you want. Its fairly easy to do in Flash, but you'll have to be careful about how big the file will get. Music, files are huge - so unless you can manage to get the flash file below 300k (industry standard) then you might run into some issues with your visitors.

assumptions:a.) your database is on local drive [c]b.) you have the database and ODBC set up on your local machinec.) you have your web server (with scripting engine) installed on your local machineIn order to have, say drive [x] able to access the database, machine [x] must also have an ODBC set up that points to the ODBC set up on drive [c]. Depending on other things, you might have to have certain permissions set up was well - from machine to machine - in order to select, insert, update, and delete records (and tables).Throw in a web server on drive [x] and you can run a site/intranet off of drive [x].Hope this helps (and hope I got it correct)

tell me where you are hosted and I can find out much more quickly what your options are.

You will not be able to find javascript that has that kind of functionality. phpnuke is a database driven application and what you describe would require that. It is impossible for Javascript to interact with a database - database is server side and javascript is client side.You will need to kind the equivilant in ASP or Cold Fusion. Find out what your host allows and let me know.

ok, I have to apologize - after I got done taking my head out of my a$$ I realized I was looking at teh wrong page - I am very sorry it must have frustrated you.up reviewing your code, the problem seems to be occuring because the content on the "Courses" goes below the bottom of the red side pillar, it stretches the the table down the page, and that pulls the cell larger.Ironically, you do not need to all those rows. Given your site design, you really only need to code a four column two row layout. The extra rows are not needed - just put line breaks after each mouseover image - the rows are extra code you simply do not need.For example:http://www.deepcreeklakebreezmotel.com/View the source there. I could have made a row in a table for each mouseover image. That would force me to rowspan my main content area - just as you have. But I have chosen to use a line break after each image, thus not needing any table rows and therefor no rowspans.Your site could be coded in this shell:<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td colspan="4">-header graphic-</td><tr><tr><td valign="top">-left white space-</td><td valign="top">-mouseover 1 -<br>-mouseover 2 -<br>-mouseover 3 -<br>-mouseover 4 -<br>-bottom pole graphic -<br></td><td valign="top">-site main content area-</td><td valign="top">-right side pole graphic-</td></tr></table>Again, I am sorry for having been on the wron page - I hope you see this as an accurate description of your problem and a viable solution to the problem.P.S. As a shorter test, just add the appropriate height to each cell on the left navigation but leave the height of the last one (the bottom of the pillar) as undefined - that should resolve the issue without any other coding.

It's OK the first time you go to the 'courses' page, but if you refresh the page the breaks come back.

sorry, still can't reproduce the scenario you describe, even when I double click and reload before the pages fully loads - are you on dial up?[edit] See next post - no way to delete this . . .

post a link and lets see what is happening . . the syntax is correct, but what is happening around could be the issue.

You'll also have ot be concerned with the fact that you most-likely are being assigned a dynamic IP address from your internet service provider. This can change when you reboot or even sometimes ISP will even force a change after 5 days to prevent the very thing you are trying to accomplish.Check with your provider, they often give you free space just by signing up with them.If you still go the home server route - you will need to consider your router/hub and make sure you have a good firewall in place - otherwise search engines and spybots will sniff your open ports and pollute your local machine - and it all goes down hill from there.Incorrectly running a server from home is like inviting the world over for dinner - they'll just keep coming back for more!!

Can't do much without a link to look at - and please don't make it Barbara Streisand's boobs.

Check your cache - I've viewed the page in:Firefox 1.07Internet Explorer 6.02Opera 8.5Netscape 8.03I see no gaps anywhere - looks like it looks like it is supposed to look!

Skemcin, thanks a lot! You have answered my question from "A 'WHAT THE?!' story..." topic! No unnecessary space anymore since the <br> tags are all in their place. 

GREAT - glad it worked out.

whenever you have an image in a table cell ALWAYS tell the browser when you are done - the </td> tag doesn't necessarily know you are done - so just put in a <br /> before all your </td> if there isn't one already there. That will solve your problem.old:<img src="images/shinto_08.jpg" name="button4" border="0"></TD>new:<img src="images/shinto_08.jpg" name="button4" border="0"><br /></TD>I see you're using Dreamweaver - good choice. But I would STRONGLY recommend you code in CODE MODE - you'll get a hang of this much faster.You're also missing the DOCTYPE tag on your first line.Hope this helps.P.S. Check out this topic - specifically Post #13. This is explained in a little more detail there.

Thank you! But I mean to list the students who are taking courses that somebody(i.e sote) is taking.

then add a WHERE clause:SELECT stu_name, cor_nameFROM ab_student JOIN ab_student_x_course ON sxc_stu_id = stu_id JOIN ab_course ON cor_id = sxc_cor_idWHERE stu_name LIKE 'sote'That will look for the name exactly matching "sote". You can add a wild card to either side if you like:-- begins with "sote"WHERE stu_name LIKE 'sote%'-- ends with "sote"WHERE stu_name LIKE '%sote'-- contains "sote"WHERE stu_name LIKE '%sote%'P.S. If you would like a line by line explanation of each part of the SQL statement, let me know.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^(need moderator to lock this post)

Yes its possible.<a href=java script: void(); onclick="openall();">Link</a>You'll need to find or build a little javascript function that will load multiple links into multiple windows - google something like "open frames with javascript" and see what you get.

When you see sites like this - especially for the online gaming community, you should always view the source code and look at the meta data at the top. It almost always reveals the application being used.The site you used as an example is built with something called PHPNuke - which is HUGELY popular in the online gaming community - typically used for game server communities and clans.Here is what you are looking for:http://www.phpnuke.org/

Geez Skemcin, ruin her learning experience

oops, sorry:( :Dit seemed like she had tried . . .

Yep, i decided for Another Yes Im still confused as to why theres three different types of yes haha

Its one of those wieghted Likert scales -1 for disagree2 for agree somewhat3 for agree4 for agree a bit more5 for strongly agreeThat way when we report on the poll, we can say xx% agree!

select s.name, c.namefrom student sjoin student_course sc on sc.studentid = s.idjoin course c on c.id = sc.courseid(that should be pretty close)I'd recommend a better naming convention for your tables . . . ab_student- stu_id- stu_nameab_course- cor_id- cor_nameab_student_x_course- sxc_id- sxc_stu_id- sxc_cor_idThis would make your query easier to read/manageselect stu_name, cor_namefrom ab_studentjoin ab_student_x_course on sxc_stu_id = stu_idjoin ab_course on cor_id = sxc_cor_idIt takes a little confusion out of the aliases. Since most people don't document their aliases, their use can be inconsistan across a site and therefore make things sometimes hard to follow.This type of prefix naming convention allows you to avoid aliases since you will always have unique names. I'd also suggest using a prefix in you tables names as well - essentially grouping tables by their prefix.Let me know how that works out.

The url you supplied doesn't seem to be working.I've tried:http://mnmsa.mnmsa.org/~aledohttp://www.mnmsa.org/~aledohttp://mnmsa.org/~aledo

Huh, I have IE6, FF, NN and Opera...http://www.opera.com/download/:)I'm currently looking forward to Opera 9, which will have xslt support, so I can start learning writing AND displaying xml...

You know you don't need XSL to display XML:http://www.w3schools.com/xml/xml_data_island.aspBut XSL does give you alot of confusion . . . I mean control over the way XML gets displayed. (sorry, just recently went through a load of legacy code from a previous developer that robbed my current employeer by billing for a job he claimed could only be done in XML/XSL just so he could learn XSL)

Yes, without a doubt it is possible and is very powerful too. I've built a few applications for some Chicago Area school districts that is coded in WAP using Cold Fusion - it was their school delay open and closed notifications.One hint, build a sniffer on your index page that determines the browser type. Redirect to the wap folder accordingly - this makes it easy for people since they just type the URL on whatever device they are using.
