Skemcin

aside from a link needed in all pages (not just the homepage), I would suggest putting a link to the respective forum and the conclusion of each tutorial:"for more help and insight on xxxxx, please visit our forums and discuss your questions with our active community"(or something along those lines - I'm a developer not a copy writer):ph34r:

Your hosting provider will be more help than anyone here. You will have ot find out where your MySQL database is stored (the database url) then you will need to point a database management tool to that location. Then, once you are connected to the database, you will need to upload and execute the scripts that will create the table structure. Once that is done, you will need to set up the odbc in your hosted control panel - which is where you will typically set up the username and password for accessing the database from a scripted page (asp, php, cold fusion). Then, make sure your code is set up with teh right datasource name, username, and password.Hope this helps.

lol - very well put!

there are so many different ways to accommodate your situation. the best is probably to switch over to a scripting language as soon as possible. Now, that doesn't mean you have to a whole heck of alot of work. But, show one - asp, php, cold fusion, and then get yoru site in that environment - if its noit already. Then just use the "include" function for the selected language. Pull you navigation out, into a seperate file and then replace all the menus on all the pages with the respective include call.If, for instance, you are already hosting your website on IIS, then it is likely your provider "gives" you the ASP engine for free. So, just add:<!--#include file="includes/navigation.inc"-->to all your pages and you are set.

<input type=hidden name=cc value="secondemailaddress@gmail.com">then just modify your perl script to accommodate the cardon copy e-mail address.

there are not too many tools that will do it for you - I a few that I have found are pretty sloppy or the shareware/free trial has limitations, like how many records it will convert over. You can get around the last one by just converting the structure and then import a CSV that you would have exported from Access.But, I eventualy found DBManager Professional 3.0. Which, after a tinkering, will allow you to import an access db into mysql. They are on version 3.1 now and I download the professional version, I believe it is still free.That is the best tool I have found.

I can't reply on the first issue you point out, but I will comment on the second. Respectible forums will always require you to create and account to post - and there is a laundry list of reasons why. But that is not so much the point. What is the point is this is not a "discussion or suggestion" it is a report of an issue with the site. You should follow the instructions posted here:http://www.w3schools.com/about/about_helpers.asp

I'd like to point out that MS Access wasn't design for ODBC connected access, let alone for the web. IMO, if you really want to start off on the right foot, I'd become familiar with MySQL and use it as your database. There is a great administration tool called phpMyAdmin that I would suggest using.Access just isn't built for this kind of stuff - but for any small project it will work fine - but if you think whatever you are building will take off - then its the wrong way to start.

unless you are paraphrasing the requirements, there is no reason why you couldn't goto http://images.google.com and seacrh for images/buttons to use on the site. If he said "create" then you can do this. If he said "use" then you're on your own - html and css only.For that matter, you could even download a free template and use that - as long as you add enough of your own code to enhance it.

no problem - let me know whenever you'd like to jump back in.

the code looks correct, try any/all of the following:a.) try it without the "type" attributeb.) double check your relative path to "favicon.ico" - make sure it is in the same folder of the page that you are testing.c.) make sure your ico is generated correctly here:http://www.programguru.com/otherwise, it should be fine.

Jonas makes excellent points. I've always told students I've taught that (Even though this sounds corny) coding a web page (using HTML, CSS, cold fusion, asp, php) is somewhat of an art. So don't expect to be a Picasso on your first attempt. If you feel comfortable with the tutorials, then you can only get better with practice.I'd start with what Jonas suggested. Then I would find a few very simply, but clean websites:http://www.deepcreekinns.com/http://www.deepcreeklakebreezmotel.com/http://www.deepcreeklakeside.com/These are sites I coded yeeeaaaars ago - some of my first. Study the code and try to understand what you see.Then take your drawings (per Jonas suggestion) and code your site.Let us know how it goes.P.S. If you're not much of a graphic designer, consider finding a free web template online and then work with the code rather than coming up with a design all yourself.

nothing there!

what language are you programming in - cold fusion, php, or asp? If you are only using HTML, then find out if your server (where you will host your website) has IIS installed - if so, then we can take advantage of the ASP include method.Let me this, and we can take it from there.

Just for fun, let us know where you (generally) live.Got here: [link removed] Enjoy!

to my knowledge no.

as already mentioned, XML is like a text based database. Think of it like this:HTML is used to display information.XML is used to define information.So, XMl is used for all sort of stuff. The most common use of it these days is in the banking industry. When they need to transport information from one system to another (i.e. banking records or transactions) it easier to do this through XML. It easier becuase it is text base, so no matter what system type is on the other end, there are no compatibility issues. That works great, as opposed to a system using an Oracle database on Windows trying to transfer data to a MySQL database on a Linux box. Two different OS and DBs can't just swipe data and structure - that's where XML jumps in.Now, I've seen it used(or misused) by companies as well. They might design a DB with 10 fields and then realize they need more. So they hijack one field (like this post was by Amatuer - see below) and dump XMl into it which might be structured to store 5 or 6 more fields of data that the current DB didnt have. Lets not get inot the why on that one - but XML can be used in so many ways - the most popular public use of XML is in the form of RSS feeds - that should really be the one that turns the light bulb on over your head regarding how it is used.Hope this helps. Amatuer, I can't answer your question at this time, but I would suggest posting this in its own thread - you just hijacked houssam_ballot's post. If people respond to your entry, the original might not get addressed - which is not fair to houssam_ballout.

Review both the HTML and CSS tutorialshttp://www.w3schools.com/htmlhttp://www.w3schools.com/css(respectively)Together, they should give you enough information to make necessary changes to accommodate your design.Can you post a preview url?

I use dreamweaver as well - especially since I am a Cold Fusion prgrammer. I was able to track down a free limited version that doesn't expire. I'll see what I can dig up.I have XMLSpy Home Edition 2005. Looks like the 2006 version doesn't have a Home Edition. I just looked through their version archives and there is no Home Edition there either.Ah, here it is, 2006 Home Edition:http://www.altova.com/download_spy_home.htmlI know the bolded paragraph says that you should evaluate the enterprise edition, but I have found enough functionality in the free Hom Edition - but I'm not in there every day - so maybe you will need more?In any case, I would download the Home Edition and see if it will suffice.

welcome to the forum. I'd start by recommending that you dispose of Frontpage - if you're serious about learning this stuff. Frontpage is like fast food for the internet - it may look good and be convenient at first, but it will go right to your waste line before you know it.anyway, cuz you're in frontpage, you are not likely going to "see" the cause of the problem until you flip into "code" mode. Once there, you will be able to understand what is really happening.my guess is that FP is making a table for each image and wrapping the image in a <p> tag - and that is to say the least of the possible things that software will do.if you post some code, I can help a little more.but you probably want something like this:

welcome to the forums. I think you just set the record for the quickest **bump** - typically one waits a couple days not a couple of hours!:)Anyhway, your question is rather vague. You can edit pages directly on the internet by way of some online authoring tool. Many free or cheap hosting services offer something like this. Is just a web based form that allows you edit tohe HTML directly.However, seasoned veterns and web professionals always have at least two environments - ideally three. They are "development", "testing" (ideal), and "production". You develop and mess up code all you want in the development environment. You promote it to test once you "think" you have it worked out. Often times you are hypnotized by your own code that you miss something, so you fix it on dev, move it to test and then finally to production. Moving files from one server to the other is either done directly by copying and pasting across your LAN, or by using versioning software (like Visual Source Safe) or by manually FTPing the pages up and down.But CSS, by itself is not a tool or means of editing a page. It is file, just like the HTML page. You can edit the page online or offline, and those changes, once saved, will take hold in the environment in which the file resides.

how is this: here is some explanation, might not need it but here it goes,:a.) I always put a break tag at the end of a line when I am done. This solves all cross browser rendering issues - most common one is when tables are used for layout and it looks good in IE but netscape might show a small whitespace between images - this will stop that. Plus, I think it is a good idea to always have your pages tell the browser everyting you can - don't assume the browser knows you are done with a line of code just cuz there is a </td>.b.) with XHTML, you;ll want to get in the habbit of using the proper single tag conventions <img... src... /> and attributes like title="xxxx"c.) I have summarized my coding conventions here:http://www.mmsug.org/?q=coding_convention_tip(adopt them or something that works for you - it makes coming back to your code easier)Hope that helps.

LMFAO - so do I!!!
