Kk, but when I save it as .php, it wont open in IE? Only Dreamweaver, do I need to select IE from the list?

Neither do I, have to wait till dan replys.Gee, I never realised, im going to have to change my signature, it looks so bland, and to think of it, think of all I could put in there.

Hi Everyone! My name is Ed, I just recently got into HTML/CSS coding, thanks to your wonderful detailed tutorials, and can I just say I am addicted??? lol I hope to post with you all soon!

Told you it was a long list, phew. And that is all about me, I didn't realise this topic was here LOL

Sorry, I haven't a clue, this really is as far as my knowledge on proccessing forms goes, and it took me about 2 weeks to get the proccessing codes as it was.

OK, but is there ANY way to get rid of it? It doesn't look very "nice"...

No, I dont think so, unless you use PHP like dan said, im just trying to work it out

So you have to have something soecial about the host so they "Support PHP" or something, copy that big chunk of code into the HTML file and it will work?...??? Read my EDIT on my last post...

Did you read the second post on the other topic, the disadvantages are listed there.Ah yes, you may want to put something on there warning visiters, it isent a problem, it is just saying it is trying to send an email on their behalf.

No, when you set the width and height in the img tag, you dont have to specify anything.

Sorry Have a real life too you know :)I don't know what you mean with "it is not working", could you specify what goes wrong?

Well, you said about playing around with the margin, and even when I set it to 100 it didn't alter anything.

So, can I just change the form inside it?

So, what do I do with this? Uplaod it and then change some of my form?

Im very confused now?!?!?

Thankyou so much!!! It works perfectly!

One question, though, is there a way that i can get the post area to automatically adjust to 100% of the browser width?

You could try changing the cols="120" in the textarea tag, to 100%, but I am not sure, try it and see, you see, you usually specify it in column, i.e. letters wide.

Could you modify the form that I posted earlier?

I understand, it is just that I myself, cant use any server scripts or programs, unless I pay more for another package. And that is why I do it the way I do. Unless there is another way, where the sever would send the post to me without using the users email?

Why isent dan answering? I NEED HELP PLEASE

Yes, it opens in a new browser window, the height and width of which I would like to define. Did you even read my first post?

Does the browser window have full controls, like forward, back, stop, refresh, homem, search, favorite, etc.?

Okay... *Is about ready to beat IE to death*I'm trying to get the widths right, but IE is ignoring px. And %'s aren't working either... what measures does IE like?

Im sorry to here about that, the code to use for changing an image size is this:

<img width="???" height="???" src="mypic.gif">

you only really need to use height or width, because it keeps the aspect ratio the same, but if you want to squash or stretch it you will have to use both.

Right for this, you just need a simple form, so here I have the code ready made, arent I good :

<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="mailto:[color="#000099"]youremail[/color]?subject=[color="#000099"]your sublect[/color]" ENCTYPE="text/plain"><table border="0" width="100%"><tr><td height="40"><font size="2">Email Address</td></tr><tr><td height="40"><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Guests Email" SIZE="30"></td></tr><tr><td height="40"><font size="2">Post:</td></tr><tr><td><script type="text/javascript"><!--var pcount = 0;var ncount = 0;// --></script><TEXTAREA NAME="Guests Post" ROWS="10" COLS="120" style="font-family: arial;" [color="#FF0000"]onfocus="if (this.value==[b]'Add Your Message Here[/b]') {this.value='';}" onblur="if (this.value=='') {this.value=[b]'Add Your Message Here[/b]';}">[b]Add Your Message Here[/b][/color]</TEXTAREA></td></tr><tr><td height="40"><center><INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Submit Post" [color="#009900"]onclick="window.location='thankyou.html';"[/color]>   <INPUT TYPE="reset" VALUE="Clear Post"></center></td></tr></table></form>

Now here you have a basic form, where users can submit their email and post. Change the blue bits to your email and the subject that ou would like the post to be sent as.Change the bold bits to whatever you want to display in the box, until the user clicks their, then it will disapear, if they click of it will return. If you din't want this at all delete the red code completely.You may notice in the submit button their is the code onclick="window.location='thankyou.html';", just replace the thankyou.html with any file that you would like to open when the user clicks submit, or if you dont want it, delete the green code.Then also there is a reset button, which will clear the post if clicked.Now there are problems with this type of form submission, and so I think you may like to read post #1&2 in this topic here.You may also wonder why I have not put the code in the

Blah Blah Blah

tag, this is because you cannot format text in them and it is easier to understand when you can.Edit: Why do you want to know the users email, when it tells you their email, because it sends it from their email?

Oh great, I wasn't sure whether you could you see.

I can't for the life of me figure out how to code tables to work for any resolution. Changing the % doesn't seem to do anything but mess up my design. Is this something that needs to be done in css? Or in the table attributes?WebsiteCSS

Although a table will strech and shrink, changing the number of words on rows etc. it will not change the size of any picture (at top of your site) and so this is stopping you from shrinking your site, without having to have the scroll bar along the bottom aswell.All I can suggest is that you have a satisfaction guarantee telling your users which reselution, webbrowser, etc. that your site best runs in?

Not much to it so far - just simple links to the jpegs with target="_blank".

Does the picture open in a separate browser?

I just added the first photo page on my band's website, www.theletter3.comSo far, I made a page with the thumbnails, and when you click on a thumbnail, the browser opens a new window with the picture. Is there a way I can control the size of that new window, to make it the exact dimension of the photo? That way I could avoid scroll bars and excessive white space around the pictures. Thanks.

Could you send your code?

Ok, there is no need to be like that, I was only trying to help. Gee you will get nowhere in life if your really that grumpy Edit: Oh will you look at that, I found a page on google, first listing... Click Here

try Notepad2...it is just like Notepad except with line numbers and code highlighting.

Notepad 2 is just the best, I used to use Notepad, but when I saw this discussion, I saw Notepad 2 on the poll, so I downloaded it and it is great.I like the colour coding and the line and col numbers are really useful when specifying code.

So here is the deal. I have an swf file loaded onto a file storing site and let's just say the URL is http://www.whatever.com/flash/movie.swf. How can I embed it from the URL. Note. There are reasons I cannot just embed it with the publish thing. I need to embed it using only the URL cuz I am on a profile site. So please, no other suggestions, just a way to embed the swf using the URL. Please. Thanks for any help in advance.

I am no expert of flash or swish, you may like to submit your post to the Flash area?Also, you may like to try searching on google or yahoo?... or dogpile, ask geeves, google advanced, okay, getting a bit carried away!

Right, I know a fair bit about this, no you don't have to have server side programs or scripting, but I would strictly recomend it if you can get it.In my case I can't get it unless I pay extra and so I just stick to making it work with HTML, or any other language I can copy and paste into my HTML file.I don't think however that it is possible to format it, unless you create a macro, that finds and replaces certain things?Anyway, this is the code you will need for it to submit it to your email:

<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="mailto:youremail.com?subject=Write subject here" ENCTYPE="text/plain">

Insert this instead of your <form> tag...and this:

<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Submit Post" onclick="window.location='thankyou.html';">   <INPUT TYPE="reset" VALUE="Clear Post">

At the bottom for Submit and reset, the reset will clear all entries, and the submit will send your user to a thankyou page, obviously called thankyou.html.Now the subject bit in the first code will allow all posts to have the same subject, allowing you to perhaps set a rule in your inbox, making all in my case guestbook posts go in to my guestbook folder?Now, as I understand there are a few problems with this, and they are:1. Whether or not you have recieved or the post has been sent, the thankyou page will still appear (most probaly telling your user that you have received their email)2. Not all users may have an email program, hence their hotmail/msn etc. will open promting them to sign in which makes it less automated.3. User may not even have an email at all, and this is where I understand you have to use server side scripts.4. Fourth but finally, most probally the user will recieve a warning telling them that an email will be sent on their behalf, which is unavoidable unless, here it is again, you use server side scripts.I think that PERL is a good lanuage, here is a tutorial in answer to your question.Now, I think I have answered all of your questions, and now for my view on the above codes: If you are just using it as a feedback form or for guestbook posts, then don't worry, but for ordering goods or otherwise you may like to use scripting. As for the problems, I scirt around them by putting a warning on my page about notification of sending an email on the users behalf and I don't worry about perhaps not recieving a post, as it is not a company website and I submit posts manually. OH and there is the slight nag, that the post will not be submitted, you have to do it manually so I suggest putting something about moderating taking anything up to a week, allowing you to manually process anything.
