  1. do you have flash Prateek? you can make animated gifs with that
  2. Hi Yahweh, your board software sounds interesting. apperently some of the issues you pointed out have been fixed in the new phpbb like the templating system which is supposed to be a brezze now as well as some other improvements.http://www.phpbb.com/about/features/im gonna download a copy anyway to try it out.are you planning on releasing yBoard at any stage?
  3. btw this site: http://www.opensourcecms.com/ lets you try out different content managment & blog systems. if you dont have a lot of experience. etomite isnt too dificult to get the hang of and to incorporate with your own designs.
  4. it sounds like you should use some sort of cms (content management system) for this site rather than static html pages. most sites like what you describe would do this wheter they use their own tailored cms or one that is already available. basically you would want to store the articles and other content in a database and use server side scripting such as php or asp to display this data. there are free and open source cms on the net which you can modify to suit your design needs. this maybe the way to go if you dont have much experience with databases
  5. yep and the new default theme prosilverthis version of phpbb is a long time coming & i think with it they may have finally caught up with vbulletin & ipb. which is cool because i remember when phpbb2 came out it was really advanced at the time. plus phpbb is free too. im gonna download a copy anyway and try it out, i may even use it for one of the forums i admin. after i create a style of course, im not mad about prosilver either
  6. will any of you guys be using olympus? its got tons of new features (well new for an offical phpbb release.) What do you think of the new default theme? http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.p...64&t=527019

    CSS through PHP

    create your style sheet in whatever text editor you link save as mystyle.css then include the following in the head of your html document:<link href="mystyle.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
  8. min-height isnt widely supported anyway

  10. yeah a subforum for that could be cool but i dont think the admins want any non coding specific forums
  11. really helpful comments there people
  12. ste

    How should I do it?

    you can set dreamweaver to automatically FTP (upload) pages to a web server when ever they are saved on a local PC. it has a design view feature that makes writing simple html as easy as using microsoft word.
  13. personally i like to use css hacks such as the backlash hack. with a bit of noodling i can often solve IE related problems without having to introduce browser specific style sheets and conditional comments. the advantage of this is that you then only have 1 external style sheet to edit which after all is one of the great things about css. I would use conditional comments only as a last resort.

    Two colors in H1

    Roondogs pretty much right. spans are inline elements whereas divs are block. block-level elements generally start a new line unless you float them. that is that block-level elements are renderedwith an implicit line break before and after, while inline-level elements are rendered where they occur in the text flow.
  15. he probably meant to post GIMP http://www.gimp.org/

    Two colors in H1

    it would be better to use the span tag the way Kevin M suggests. simply because using 2 seperate h1 tags one after another will be seen as an attempt to inflate a page's ranking by Google and you would be penalised for the document not being well structured.
  17. well 1024×768 is currently the most widely used screen size so you should optimise your layout for this resolution. remember that screen size does not equal the actual visible area of the browser. so if you were optimising for 800×600 resolutions your page width would be 750 pixels. Its 960 pixels for 1024×768 resolutions.
  18. i have bookmarked this. thanks
  19. it would be better & more semantically correct to use label. are you trying to conform to WAI guidelines?
  20. ste

    List

    div style="float:left; text-align: left;"
  21. this is very good for a first layout. I dont like the way you have both drop shadow & outer glow layer styles applied to the text i think it would look cleaner with one or the other. remember that this will be viewed in different screen resolutions so you may want to have a background that can repeat. at the moment it doesnt look like it will otherwise its pretty cool
  22. you are either talking about server-side includes or framesframes would do what you describe in the browser (client side), whereas includes would do that server side.for more info on includesw3schhols tutorial: http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_includes.aspa thread on this forum where this method is described: http://w3schools.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=10544more info on frames:http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_frames.asp
  23. the great thing about sIRF is that your html remains <h1>title</h1> etc. but the javascript replaces it with flash so its search engine friendly.

    Why HTML?

    It makes sense to have two diferent tutorials for html & xhtml because we are currently in a transitional period where most people are still coding in html. There are thousands of people who already know html and want to just learn the differences between the two. Eventually html probably wont be taught but for the moment it makes sense to have them seperate
