    Advice!

    xhtml isnt that different or more complicated than html4 just have to close tags/lowercase etc. if you know the differences coding in xhtml is fine
  4. Read the rules also the link in your signiture is wrong

    Table

    instead of making that a new table just make it a column of the previous tablee.g.http://ecomireland.dsvr.co.uk/clients/test/kaz.html^^ thats very rough but just so you get the idea
  6. great, good luck with it Again, i know it sounds boring but i cant stress how important it is to plan. Ive seen guys with 4 page websites using a css drop down menu just because they thought the menu was cool only to realise it was unnessecary for a micro site. At the other end of the spectrum a friend making a clan site with hundreds of pages in plain html. he had a nightmare trying to control all that content and eventually had to redo the site with a cms and re-enter all the posts.
  7. dont do that.first off plan the site. Aesthetics:what kind of look/feel should the site have? this will make all kinds of choices for you like color scheme, font choice and layout.Content:how much will there be? this will influence the type of navigation (drop-downs for large sites etc.) the amount of content and how regularly it will be updated also gives us an idea of technologies we may need. (database? server side scripting?)

    Text over an image

    html: <div id="content"><p>This is where I want the text box to be in the code but I want the text to show up on top of the "sgpagetest01_02.jpg"</p></div> css: #content {width: 749px; height: 448px; background-image: url(page_layout/sgpagetest01_02.jpg);}

    HTML

    Not sure what you mean, but if it is that the selects automatically stretch in FF while they stay at 50px in IE then maybe just increase the width from only 50px? try 150px<select name="cars" style="width:150px;">hope this helps
  11. in the document head, try:<EMBED src="file.mp3" autostart=true hidden=true>example: http://ecomireland.dsvr.co.uk/clients/test/blah.html
  12. You just need both your text editor and your browser open, make a change hit f5 see the change. takes no time at all. And hand coding allows for greater control, flexibility & more efficient code. Well in my experience anyway.
  13. first off, you should lose the borders around your buttons by adding border="0"e.g. replace: <a href=""><img src="http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p42/hns_marcon/Buttons/Orange%20buttons/Blank.gif"></a> with: <a href=""><img src="http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p42/hns_marcon/Buttons/Orange%20buttons/Blank.gif" border="0"></a> I like the header image, but overall i feel the colors on the site clash. When im planning a new site i experiment with different color schemes and present the client with a few options. when we agree on a color scheme i pretty much stick to that. this will give your design more consistency. when i cant come up with something i like, i sometimes visit: http://www.colourlovers.com/ they have great color pallettes there to choose from.hope this helps a bit.
  14. create a css file, save as lets say "styles.css"make sure the css file is in the same directory as your html fileinclude:<link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">in the document HEAD of the html file.e.g.<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"><html lang="en"><head><title>#</title><link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"></head><body>etc. etc.
  15. heres a way you could do that. in this example for a menu<head><style type="text/css"> #menu a { display:block; width:200px; /* change to whatever you need */ background: url("button.gif") 0 0 no-repeat; text-decoration: none; } #menu a:hover { background: url("button_hover.gif") 0 0 no-repeat; } #menu a:active { background: url("button_active.gif") 0 0 no-repeat; } </style></head><body><div id="menu"> <a href="">Menu item 1</a> <a href="">Menu item 2</a> <a href="">One more </a></div></body></html>
  16. Im no javascript expert but it looks like that is only part of the code, could you post the rest? unless your missing that. in that case that is why it wont work. e.g. you say onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" but MM_swapImgRestore() hasnt been defined
  17. i dont think thats really the scope of this forumtry sitepoint for that, tons of articles about ithttp://www.sitepoint.com/subcat/ecommerce-strategyhttp://www.opensourcecms.com/ <-- lets you demo loads of open source cms. also has reviews you should find helpful
  18. with www.hazardzone.tk things would look alot better if they were lined up and of equal widths.i have tried to illustrate this point by making some quick edits in photoshoporiginal: (click for big) edit:(click for big) also i would agree with holmedwa04 that the background aint very good and the layout is all over the place for me in IE

  20. ste

    help with <style>

    any chance of a link? Is that CSS (above) in only 1 of the HTML files? you may need to include it for all, If you are using frames.it would probably be best to have an external CSS file (with a .css extension) referenced in the head of each HTML file. css file: ( save file as styles.css ) body {SCROLLBAR-ARROW-COLOR: #000000;SCROLLBAR-BASE-COLOR: #666666;SCROLLBAR-FACE-COLOR: #696969;SCROLLBAR-HIGHLIGHT-COLOR: #A9A9A9;SCROLLBAR-SHADOW-COLOR: #778899;SCROLLBAR-3DLIGHT-COLOR: #778899;SCROLLBAR-TRACK-COLOR: #808080;SCROLLBAR-DARKSHADOW-COLOR: #778899;}a:link { color : slategray; text-decoration : none;}a:visited { color : #C1C4C6; text-decoration : none;}a:active { color : #C1C4C6; text-decoration : none;}a:hover { color :#666666; text-decoration : none;} in the <head> of every HTML file: <html><head><link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"></head><body> Hope this helps

    help

    you can make a word document of the credit application form.if you have acrobat you can convert the word document to a pdf if you dont have that there are free websites that will do it. https://www.pdfonline.com/convert_pdf.asp (will mail the pdf to your address)upload this to server.include a link in your html page e.g.<a href="form.pdf">download credit application form</a>then they will be able to download this and faxx it in or whateverI think it would be much better to just have an online HTML form. that can be submitted to his email let me know if you want more detail
  22. i would use flash to do it. you can make a player with controls that will play FLV Streams. google for tutorials
  23. why does the w3schools.com site use an archaic table-based layout. when the W3C clearly states that css is to be used for layout
