and that didn't get me anywhere. Can any of you direct me to a resource that will help me figure out how to do this? Or, can you not change the background color of the frame anywhere but within that frame's file?

I hope this makes sense! I am so new to HTML that I might be explaining this incorrectly, so please bear with me. I'm happy to provide more info if you need.

  • Paragraph help?

    Date: 03/17/08     Keywords: no keywords

    I have everything on my LJ bio centered. The paragraph in my bio spans the width of the page. I want it to have a more condensed "boxy" look (I hope that makes sense). How do I do this? Is indentation or margins the key, or would I need to use a style sheet?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Scrollbox.

    Date: 03/17/08     Keywords: no keywords

    I've been trying to add a scrollbox to my info page with random text. I have found codes, that isn't the issue. However, when I copy & paste the code into my Bio section nothing happens. To be more clear, this is what I'm trying so hard to do :

    Photobucket

    I would like the information inside the scrollbox to be copy-able but not altered in the box.

    Basically, after inserting the code, the only thing that shows up is the text, not in the scrollbox - it basically just looks as if I added plain text to the info page.

    Any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong? Thanks in advance for your help! I've got no clue why this has become so complicated for something so simple!

  • faster image loading

    Date: 03/16/08     Keywords: html, web

    Hello all, as this appears to be the most active html help community, I have decided to post here.

    I recently redesigned the website for the stable that I ride at. (The old one was pretty dated.) It's fairly basic since I don't know many fancy tricks, but I do have a problem.

    I was trying to get the look of frames on the page without using frames, since I've been told those are pretty outdated. So, I just stuck in a background images with the bars. Trouble is, I had to make the background image huge, so that when you scroll to the bottom, you don't encounter the end of the image. Likewise, in case the screen resolution settings are different, I also created extra space on the side. So, it's a pretty big image.

    My only question is: is there a better way to achieve this look, or a way to make the background image load faster without losing the quality of the image?

    Thanks very much for your time.

    4. meta tag hell

      Date: 03/04/09     Keywords: html, web, google

      Hi guys~ I'm having an invisible code problem. I am building a Twilight website for my sister (I know you guys will say something about that XD). Anyway, I inserted meta tags, and it's working. However, when I google it, I get this:

      Twillight2
      Your Ad Here.
      twillight2.com/ - 3k

      The description tag is this: openbracket meta name="description" content="Coming soon to a theater near YOU!" / closebracket. (I can't put < > or LJ won't show it).

      I used to have an AdBrite box on this page, but I removed all of the coding for it. In my recent HTML page the words "Your Ad Here" do not exist. I tried to clear my cache, but it keeps showing up. Where is this invisible coding?? Thank you.

      PS: I know it's spelled with one "l" but that was taken.

      I'm usually pretty good with the HTML codes but I cannot figure this thing out. I'm really at the end of my rope here but I'm a determined little brat and would really like to figure it out.

      So here's the problem,
      I've seen people insert like a...for lack of a better word, table, into their posts. To describe it, it's like a box that people put a code in. Most often it's got some html code in it. And I was wondering how in the heck they did that.

      PLEASE help me somebody! I'm begging you over here, it's driving me NUTS.

    9. Making regualr HTML work on livejournal profile?

      Date: 02/12/09     Keywords: html

      I created 2 HTML tables and wrote

      <table align="left" width="300" cellpadding="5" border="0">

      to get the second table to align next to it.

      But when I paste it into my LJ profile it doesn't work - I was wodnering is there any tags or anything I need to add to make this regualr HTML work on my profile?

      Also by using the align left function the 2 tables aren't right next to each other, there is a little gap - how do I get rid of that too.

      Thank you!

      An RP I used to mod had a really cool code thing that I want to find out how to do.

      Basically, to friend the people in the community, all you had to do was type in the username you were currently logged under into this box and it would add and remove people accordingly via what usernames were listed into the admin console.

    12. Can you possibly help me?

      Date: 01/24/09     Keywords: web, microsoft


      I don't know if you can help me but it's worth a try.  I have a small website that I started working on last year.  I didn't know much at all about how to go about it so I used Microsoft Publisher to create the pages I needed.   Just a week ago I switched over to Dreamweaver on a Mac instead of a PC. It connected to my webhost and I was able to get the files but when I tried to upload the edited first page, It is not even recognized. My host is Dreamhost and most of the time their language is way over my head when I go to their site.  Do you have any idea what ai should do so that I can begin to revise and update my site?

    14. Two Header Images?

      Date: 01/10/09     Keywords: no keywords

      I am curious, is there any way to have two header images or have a footer at the top?

      Okay, here is what I'm wanting (so you'll all have a vague idea of what I want)

      I have a background image that I will be using, but I want two images on top of this background image. One, the larger one, on the left side of the journal, and then a more header esque image at the top.

      I would like to avoid just slapping the left image(or even the header) on top of a bigger image for the background. The background image I have, I'd like for it to repeat, thus it wouldn't workout too well to have another image on top of it.

      But I just really want to know if this is possible?

      And if this is the wrong place to post this, let me know. I'm desperate!

    17. changing background color in frames

      Date: 03/20/08     Keywords: html

      Hi all ~

      I would appreciate any information you can offer me. I am new to HTML and am taking a class once a week to bring me up to speed. Our current project asks us to create a page divided into three frames - one at the top and two at the bottom. I have links in the right-hand frame that I want to target to the left-hand frame, but when clicking those links, I want the background color of the left-hand frame to change. This image should help to explain:



      I've been Googling left and right trying to figure out how to do this, and can't figure it out. As a workaround, I ended up creating several .html files for the left-hand frame, each with their own unique background color that corresponds to the color I want to see when the right-hand link is clicked. I'm wondering if there's a better/more efficient way to do this. I tried something like this for my right-hand frame:
