keturahuriel Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 [sOLVED]Whenever I look at my web page on anyone else's computer, It goes all stupid. I mean, LOOK! The navbar is NOT supposed to be on top of the text. What did I do wrong....? <table width="750" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1" bgcolor="#666666" > <tr> <td> <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" bgcolor="#000000" > <tr> <td valign="top"><div align="center"> </div></td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" bgcolor="#333333"> <tr> <td width="20%" valign="top" bgcolor="#000000"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <style type="text/css"> .hovermenu {list-style: none; display: inline;} .hovermenu {padding: 2px 2.0em; text-decoration: none; float: left; color: #FF0000; background-color: #000000; border: 0px solid #000000;} .hovermenu a:hover {background-color: #660000; border-style: outset;} .hovermenu a:active{border-style: inset;} </style> <body> <body bgcolor="#000000"> <body text="#FF0000" link="#CD0000" vlink="#660000"> <div class="hovermenu"> <ul> <li><a href="index.htm">Home</a></li><br> <li><a href="profiles.htm">Profiles</a></li><br> <li><a href="poetry.htm">Poetry</a></li><br> <li><a href="gallery.htm">Galleries</a></li><br> <li><a href="order.htm">Order Art</a></li><br> <li><a href="songz.htm">Songs</a></li><br> <li><a href="calendar.htm">Calendar</a></li><br> <script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.counter160.com/js.js?img=8"></script><br> <li><a href="http://www.000webhost.com"><img src="http://www.counter160.com/images/8/left.png" alt="free web hosting" border="0" align="texttop"></a><a href="http://www.hosting24.com"><img alt="Hosting24.com web hosting" src="http://www.counter160.com/images/8/right.png" border="0" align="texttop"></a> </ul> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 That page has 4 body tags and several unclosed elements. It's also missing a doctype, I suggest you use HTML 4 transitional. Do a Google search for HTML doctypes to find the tag to use to add that. Once you do that then you'll want to validate your page to see where the errors are.http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://w...gaara.890m.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realize I had made that many screw ups... Grrrrr... That's what happens when you type it all out. I knew I should've copied and pasted...

Xune Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Hey, just wanted to post that on your navbar, you really should change the hover effects on the links.... as on ones like "Order Art", it moves the whole content part to the right about ¼" and moves back upon un-hover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried fixing it but it did that no matter how much I expanded the table/div thing. The words just spread out more and it still moved the line when you hovered over the ORDER ART link. It ANGERS ME!

keturahuriel Posted March 11, 2008 Author Share Posted March 11, 2008 Also, When I checked the error page thingamadoo, it said I had about 100 errors. GRR! Either way, I fixed the ones that wouldn't require the entire reconstruction of my site... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 There probably aren't that many. There are probably only a few that are causing the validator to become confused and see everything after those as errors. Also, it might report several errors for the same problem. If you start at the top of that page and work down you'll probably only need to change a few things to get them fixed. But it's a lot easier to troubleshoot a valid page then an invalid page.

keturahuriel Posted March 11, 2008 Author Share Posted March 11, 2008 Oh, I know. But thank you for giving me that link! I did need to fix some tags that went stupid. I also had a few broken links ... But either way, it really helped. Plus I just checked the fave web page editor thread and got Notepad2. It makes me happy. I can take notes on which lines are stupid and where to improve. YAY! I love these forums. they make me so much better with web design and such.
