Hey, I'm kind of new to C, but have been working with HTML, and jscript for a while, and because this is a GD board, i thought i'd start a topic on it. So if you have any Q&A on HTML, websites, hosting, name servers ect.... post'em here.
thx

let me get this straight, your asking us to ask you questions about html/javascript?
sounds kinda pointless to me. anyway() . . .
if a contradiction was contradicted would that contradition contradict the origional crontradiction?
no, im doing it mostly for my Q's , but i just thought it be nice to have a section all about html, i don't care who you ask or what, just a place for html authors.

Aren't there other boards out there more geared towards html? I know there are java boards (javaranch) and a few good javascript and dhtml boards out there.
Greetz. Actually, it's ok. But, i guess yeah, maybe this wasn't the best board to post on but never mind. I always wanted to know quite a few things.
First, i noticed on some websites there are text links and when the mouse hovers over the link the background shifts color. I know how to do image swapping with the javascript. But i couldn't figure out this one. And, there were some fantastical tags no one ever told me about, such as <xmp> which really aligns the text neatly.
I tried learning php, but the web-server i am using is a free type, and it didn't support scripting.
Thanks anyways.
All I know is that the text links are in a table, and using OnMouseOver, or whatever it is, the column's background colour changes. Hope this helps,
i don't think that tag is standard HTML, might be dynamic html

Interesting you brought that up right now, cause I was just working with some HTML yesterday and did just that . IN order to have the background changes, etc., you should use something called Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).
The style looks something like this
The above code, when put within the <head> </head> tags makes the regular link white (HEX value #FFFFFF), no underline. On mouseover (hover) it will turn red with yellow background and underlined.Code:<style> <!-- a:link { color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none;} a:hover { color: red; text-decoration: underline; background-color: yellow;} --> </style>
A good site for learning HTML, JavaScript, XML, etc is th HTML Goodies website, link for the CSS below:

That I believe is a positioning tag that isn't exactly in the standard HTML... as far as I remember, if you save a Word Document as HTML you will get those tags and many other non-standard ones that MS uses for it's own purposes...

Yeah, I think you can do it with JavaScript too... But I'm not really sure.
the best things in life are simple.
this thread needs someone with a good knowledge of html and javascript. Some serious web designer + programmer, not a bunch of rookies.
no offense meant, but you can take offense to anything i say - that's your right.
I am the Alpha and the Omega!!!
first, i am not a rookie to html, and why should the mods have a prob with this thread, it's not inapropriate, and yes i admit it's off topic, but it's on GD, i put it on this site, because i like the community.

OK, then, on the HTML topic... can you explain to me the use of the <div> tag? If you could please keep it short and simple
This is my signature. Remind me to change it.
The DIV element defines a generic block-level container, to provide style or language information to blocks of content. The element may contain any inline or block-level element, including another DIV.
The DIV element is most useful in combination with the CLASS, ID, or LANG attributes. For example, a navigation bar could be contained within a DIV marked as CLASS=navbar, allowing the author to use style sheets to easily change the background of all navigation bars on a site, or to eliminate navigation bars when printing.
The deprecated ALIGN attribute suggests the horizontal alignment for the content of the division on visual browsers. Possible values are left, right, center, and justify. <CENTER> is a slightly better-supported alias for <DIV ALIGN=center>, though both methods of centering are deprecated in favor of style sheets, which provide greater flexibility in suggesting alignment.
