Hey guys! It's a first post here, so I'll make it short and clear. First off, I am not your complete n00b at coding. I'm half-intermediate in HTML as well as CSS, so all I need help with is basically codes I don't know of. Which brings me to the subject of my post.

Image maps. Love 'em? Hate 'em? Well help me anyway.

There is an icon maker whose name I've forgotten, but she has a banner which in itself contains an image map. She simply added the text in whatever graphic program she uses, and then made links of it. So I have two questions:

How did she do that?

and

How can I find out the co-ordinates of something and in this case how to use it in text?

Eternal love to whoever is able to help me with this. ^_^

I'm trying to redo my website to php, including my blog. What scripting language are Blogger tags in if not PHP? I see placeholder tags such as < $ BloggerFileName $ > (sans the spaces) and I'm trying to understand it so I can successfully migrate that code from my html page to my new php page, and eventually make my own layout/ template for it. When I tried that and viewed it on my test site it only displayed the code and not the blog entries.

I'm currently thinking of simply including the blogger.html file and not trying to make it a php page.

Any hints or ideas as for deciphering Blogger's code?

Hi i'm new to this community.. been reading and watching for a while but never posted in here.  I am a beginging webdesigner. have a few clients. Right now though I'm working  on a site for www.killerkreations.biz  .. and here is my dilemma:

I made the www.killerkreations.biz site and design a while ago and wanted to clean it up so i made www.killerkreations.biz/newsitedesign.htm  you get an idea if you go there, click on gallery and then trucks.. thats as far as i got. but my client doesn't like it.. says it's "cartoony" which i can understand.He doesn't want the skulls, just some other design (which i am currently trying to think up something cool looking) so i want i make something clean and simple not as busy and all over the place as the original page. I was pretty happy with the new stuff i did.. but i have to change it. i don't think the client even likes the font i used, which i love :)

so my questions:  Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do? or any recources they could suggest.. i have some HTML under my belt but i don't know anything else.. and i am trying to learn flash (haha trying). Also, everyone says it's pretty much nessecary that I learn flash.. I want to but am a bit lost on what would be a good program to invest in. so any help there would be awesome too!

also. just your opinions on my work so far would be nice! i don't know any other webdesigners so i could use all the constructive critisim i can get! 

Thanks so much

Ok, I’m trying to make a nice little search script for my CMS. The whole site is in the db, and I would like to have a way for people to be able to search all the content. Each entry in the db has an id, name, title, description and body. They may all contain html. now I would like to run a query that looks through all the fields (except the id) and pulls out all those that match, then display them in a table (I assume a while loop is fie for this). So what I'm really looking for is an sql query that will search all the fields. Now I would also like it to recognise boolean searches if this is possible.

Ok, I’m sure you get the idea by now. Does anyone know how this might be achieved? Please note, my php knowledge is about a year old and my mysql is very poor. I have also been through mysql docs (mainly this page, but have found it s little beyond me).

Thanks for any help

i'm doing a project where i need to measure distances between zip codes; en route to a solution i stumbled upon a couple of handy resources that i figured i'd pass along:

http://www.zend.com/codex.php?id=1486&single=1
a class used to do various zipcode calculations such as distance and finding the zip codes within range of another zip code
take a look at the class to see how he wants your tables and fields named for the state and zip code database tables

http://www.cfdynamics.com/cfdynamics/zipbase/index.cfm
zipbase - datbase of zip codes with lat & long info, state info, etc. available in a text file and an access datbase
i used the textfile and in mysql said:
mysql> LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'c:/ZIP_CODES.txt'
-> INTO TABLE zip_code
-> FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"'
-> LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n';

http://27.org/isocountrylist/usps_states_list.sql
SQL file for creating a states table (i believe in the zipcode class, he wants the states table called "state")

i used that to make a silly little app to test some of the features of the class:

 $zip){
		$field = 'zip'.($key+1);
		if(isset($_REQUEST[$field])){
			if(is_numeric($_REQUEST[$field])){
				$zips[$key] = $_REQUEST[$field];	
			}
		}
	}
	
	

?>
" method="GET">
" /> " /> 



 $zip){
		if($zip){
			echo "
";
			echo "$zip:";
			$details = $zc->get_zip_details($zip);
			if(!empty($details)){
				foreach($details as $key => $value){
					echo "
$key: $value
";
				}
			}
			echo "
";
		}
	}
?>


get_distance($zips[0], $zips[1]);	
	}
?>

Recently Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols published on eweek.com his first views pertaining to Firefox 1.5 Beta. The title of his article, hints his impressions on the recently announced software; "1.5 Beta Looks Better than Ever".

However there are some initial problems. One of the main problems with Beta 1, is the incompatibility with the vast majority of existing extensions programs. Extension developers are aware of this problem, so new, 1.5-compatible extensions should be in place well before the final version of 1.5 hits the street some time in November or December. Mozilla will be releasing a list of 1.5-compatible extensions within the week.

Improvements Made to Beta 1:
a) Taking a leaf from Opera browser, works much faster at rendering pages that you have already read.
b) The overall performance of the browser is better. Gecko, the layout and rendering machine behind the browser, has been tightened up and made faster.
c) Easy to get rid of private information with the new Tools/Clear Private Data Command.
d) It is very open-standard friendly. The program comes with support for SV (Scalable Vector Graphics), CSS (Cascade Style Sheets) 2 and 3, (DHTML (Dynamic HTML) and JavaScript 1.6.

As a beta, without any technical support, without support for 1.0x extensions, it should not be used as a replacement for Firefox 1.0x or any other browser. Come December and its final release, it will be a different story.

I am officially going out of my mind. This might be a little long, sorry folks. I'm just getting way to frustrated with this. When trial and error & google fail...

I am trying to get a div to position at the bottom of a page. Sounds simple right?

No matter what I try it's not doing what I want it to do. Simple example I have the bottom margin set to 0px. That should work.. shouldn't it?

I've tried bottom: 0 (which gets it to the bottom of the browser window, ok in the simple example.. but the Real Page is longer than that, and makes the image float halfway down the page. (on there it is the copyright image I'm trying to get to the bottom.)

.copyright {
position: absolute;
z-index: 2;
padding: 7px;
bottom: 0px;
}

I've even tried top: 100%, top: auto.. nothing works


Real Page 2 position: absolute is supposed to make that element work independantly from the other elements on the page. If so why is it plopping down below the rest? ( and no matter where in the html I put it it's working around the other divs)

.copyright2 {
position: absolute;
z-index: 2;
padding: 7px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
}


This is probably going to be one of those simple "Do this, dummy" kinda answers, but that's okay.

Hi folks,

Another one from me :-)

I am after some very simple HTML editing software. Something akin to Notepad, but which has support for and will add basic HTML e.g. bold, underline, italics. As well as this, also has the ability to display the result, ideally in an updated preview pane.

Is there such a thing?

TIA

My names Manda & I'd like some HTML help.

I only know some basic HTML & want to make my Myspace look better [if this commiunity's strictly for LJ help just tell me & I'll delete this entry] so I found what I'd like to do. I'd like to have it look similar to this girls Myspace. I like the boxes around 'jaz is whateva' 'contacting jaz is whateva' etc a whole lot & want to put them in mine. If anyone knows how that would be amazing. I'd have basically the same layout only different colors [I want a light peach & have the border of the boxes in a darker peach color] so any help would be great. Thanks!!

Is there anybody in this community who is really tricky with tables? I'm trying to do that whole rounded image border table thing and I keep getting spaces in between the images and can't for the life of me figure out what I'm doing wrong.
