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.
