| | This sounds like the hotmail ISP block problem. It happens like this: 1. Someone sends spoofed spam emails using your ISP as the return address. 2. A Hotmail user sick of the spam reports the email to Hotmail's automated spam reporting system. 3. Hotmail blocks access to your ISP as … |
 | You can't do it with just HTML and JavaScript, because they run on the user's computer. You need a script that runs on your website's server to achieve this. |
| | Security rules require the user to confirm any upload that is not a web page component.  |
| | Even if you could do that, Firefox closes so quickly that nobody could read it. If somebody clicks the X, they want to close the program now. They don't want it to do any more. If IE can do it, it is because IE has a nonstandard extension to web … |

| | I teach a beginners class using Excel. During an examination, some of my students misread the instructions (provided by the department, not by me). These are the kinds of errors only a novice could make. This caused the following two errors to occur. - Instead of just putting data into … |

| | Just make a page with two text links on it: View on mobile phone View on full size computer |
 | The problem with the non-table methods is that they fall apart when the browser window size is different than the size planned for. Instead of making page image scroll (as it should), the browser lets the structure created by divs fall apart. It was a good idea theoretically, but the … |
| | Anything inside a script is NOT searched by search engines. The original page before it is modified by scripts is the only thing the search engines look at. |
 | That would make me hit the back button at lightning speed. |

| | [QUOTE=Egsal;69745]I'm working on a website for my friend and we're having some problems. We have set up a table to handle the main page, which has within the table a shoutbox, news posts, and links. The news bits within the table are (obviously) longer in terms of space used up … |
| | If the script keeps running (e.g. if there is a loop we can't see, or another script), the display won't change. IE waits until the script ends to update the screen. Block and none are not valid display modes. Use visible and hidden. |
| | I don't know if that is possible. Vector graphics contain descriptions of the objects in the picture, such as lines, rectangles, polygons, circles, etc. They have to be drawn by the artist. A photograph has no such information within it. Vector graphics make no sense for images taken with a … |
| | Most likely the website itself is having trouble. All kinds of things may have happened to them: - Their computer may have eaten the website AND the backup. - Their computer may now be a pile of burned out chips, due to a surge or a lightning stroke. - They … |

| | I'd say that something zxnrbled the boot sector on your master drive. You need to change a BIOS setting: Boot CD, then C drive. Put the Windows install CD in and boot. It will then reinstall Windows and fix that. Warning: If it can't fix the boot sector, it may …  |

| | Re: Comment Form There is a way to do it, but it requires work on your part. Have them email you the comments, and then you edit them into an html file when you receive them.  |
| | 1. Don't use absolute positioning. 2. All other browsers place the margin outside of the object (as seen by absolute and width). IE places it inside the object.  |
| | The problem is the Echo commenting system the paper uses. It's quite buggy. I have had this problem with every paper and TV station that uses it. It also reports a failure to post error, but then posts anyway - 3 times.  |
| | I have relative links in a menu page of the form: [CODE]<li><a href="info.htm#part1">See Part 1 of the problem</a></li>[/CODE] In the target page, the anchor is made as follows: [CODE]<h1><a name="part1">Part 1 of the Problem</a></h1>[/CODE] Now, after upgrading to Firefox 4, I am getting a 405 error: URL /Part1.html not found. … |
| | It can't be done reliably on all browsers, because webpages do not care about the size of the viewport, and browsers can't agree on a way to provide the size of the viewport. The Internet was not designed or intended to display pages that match the size of the current … |
| | I don't think you can do that, because it is not your page. And I haven't found a way to find longitude and latitude on Google Maps. They don't display it.

| | If several attributes conflict, the browser throws away the height attribute first. The next questions is: 30 percent of WHAT? It's 30 percent of the height of the container of the tag with the height attribute. If the object is inside another container (such as a paragraph, or a table … |
 | The [icode]<p> </p>[/icode] tag pairs enclose a paragraph. A single [icode]<p>[/icode] tag is not allowed to be used as a line break.

| | Re: div align=center [inlinecode]align= [/inlinecode] is deprecated. And the W3C clowns gave us no good way to center images in nondeprecated ways.

| | It may be IE that is causing the trouble. Try designing it for chrome, and then adjusting to make it work for IE. One big difference: IE puts the width and height attribute outside any margins, borders, and padding. The W3C standard and other browsers puts the width and height … |
| | You didn't tell us what it is doing wrong. You need to put classes in the table and in the cells. Use lowercase for your classes. Use the CSS: [code] .x1 {width: 85%; border: 0.1em solid black collapse;} .y1 {border: 0.1em solid black;} .z1 {border: 0.1em solid black; width: 20%;} … |
