Hi all. I have this ugly website. It's here: http://liquid.rdpdesign.com

I'm redesigning it, trying to work on all the little details so it's not so ugly. The site runs on Wordpress which explains the large CSS file and such.

Here's what I have up so far: http://temp.rdpdesign.com/liquid/redesign.html

I need advice. What's better? What's worse? What else needs work?

The image at the bottom is a mock up of what I would like... a repeated image of something like the surface of the ocean. Or something water related like that.

The layout works great in FF and Opera, ideally it won't be changed... it still has some bugs in IE that I'm working on.

My dream would be to see this site make it into some kind of css gallery... even considering the restraints I have.

I have been working with this all day and cant find anything. Basically i have a code I figure it is java and for the submit button at the end(what appears) you basically only have two options: a picture link or a button. Here is one example: input type="image"src this brings up a picture link.

I only want a simple blue html link that a person clicks on to submit, I think it has to be in the input type format, so how do i do this?

is there anyway to put a a href in there to make it a submit form, or any other code to do this?

Any help greatly appreciated

I've been having trouble with Java. For example, if I'm doing online shopping, they often have the option of viewing a larger image of the item, which comes up in a popup window or something. A lot of the time, no window or image appears at all. Most recently, I clicked on a button with the following link: javascript:centerIt(345,164,'popvideo.html?artist=beautiful','drvideo'); and again, it didn't work. :\ I'm pretty sure the problem is on my end because the sites work on other people's computers. I also tried turning off the popup blocker (whether or not that's even related to this problem), but still nothing. What's going on??

I'm using Windows XP home edition and my browser is Firefox 1.0.7. (Though it doesn't work with my IE either.)

Thanks

First of all, I've gotten a lot of help here, and I really appreciate it. I have yet another problem. The website I set up for a client has a glitch on the menu here: http://www.armetta.com/portfolio/work1.html

I realize that IE is much less popular than Safari, but I would like to fix this. I also know that I have the page set up in a bit of an unusual way. I'm tempted to recode it using just tables instead of the lists. But if there is a simpler adjustment I can make to the existing code, I'd love to know.

Thanks again!!!

Theoretically, America's cellular network is extremely vulnerable to attack. If somebody wanted to bring down the cell service completely, they wouldn't need anything more than an approximage 400MBps bandwidth; easily accomplished with exploited computers. Even taking out a city wouldn't require much more than 2 or 3MBps. Since this vulnerability has been discovered, do you people think somebody might actually try it? What do you think the reprecussions would be for the affected areas? Since exploiting the system is merely using the system (just beyond it's capabilities), what kind of punishment do you think would be given if somebody got caught? Generally, what is your thoughts?

Here is some info on the exploit.

Assume:

1. I am beginning to learn HTML and Flash, and I have a semi-photographic memory and a learning curve that approaches infinity over a matter of a dozen hours or so.
2. I've never put up an actual website before--I've stuck pretty much to LiveJournal.
   
3. I want to start a website (I've already registered the domain name) with the following features:

• an embedded Livejournal
  
• A few nice, classy, low-graphic-content text pages, some photos, and a ton of links
• the ability to handle up to a few million page views and click-throughs per day, once it gets going (yes, I'm extremely humble)
• scalable so I can add graphics and more advanced content as I go
• zero popups.

I downloaded an extension called FasterFox (http://fasterfox.mozdev.org/)... I find that it is a nice little tweak utility, however there's one feature they advertise that I'm not sure if it's 'safe' to use.


Prefetch Links
Dynamic speed increases can be obtained with Firefox's unique prefetching mechanism, which recycles idle bandwidth by silently loading and caching all of the links on the page you are browsing.

My question is - does this only prefetch content marked somehow for prefetching? Or does it just randomly grab any HTML link it sees?

Because if it just grabs every link it sees, it could be extremely dangerous... lots of links are of the type "click on me and something serious happens, like your account is deleted"... or mail gets marked read on a webmail server, etc...

I had used Google Web Accellerator for a brief amount of time, and this kind of prefetching was one of its features.. I had to throw it away due to that kind of problems... webpages would act strange if you just randomly clicked on links... Static pages are okay, but dynamic content it is dangerous to just download every link willy-nilly..

So does this prefetch feature take that into consideration? They talk about it like it's built into FireFox, so I would hope it does have some mechanism to know when prefetching is safe.. the onjly way I can see that working is if webpages marked content safe to prefetch...

Anyone know some details on this?

An acquaintance recently asked me for help finding web development software. Knowing very little/nothing, I wondered what programs you might recommend. I'm not certain what he hopes to accomplish, but I imagine Dreamweaver probably wouldn't be necessary to start out with. What basic, bare bones programs might one use instead? Would a freeware XHTML editor be enough? If so, what?

Any comments appreciated. I hope this isn't too stupid a question for the community.

Can anyone tell me how to imbed a power-point presentation in a website? Or post one for download? It's html on Dreamweaver, if that makes a difference.

dang it, I come up with a design that I like and I am having a heck of a time trying to make it work (ie it looks like junk or lines up all funky). Must be all the rain we are having that is throwing off my game.
link to prototype : here
centering all of this in the page: no problem
making the two middle columns "play nice": more or less ok
keeping the fixed heights the same: not yet
my goal is to use as much css/html/plain old text so that I basically just have two images (bottom left and top right), the font used in the prototype is not what I have planned for the page (I really am not militant on fonts) so don't get really worked up on this.

my two designs that I have tried were to have two columns or two rows contained inside another div but something just is not working. The rows or columns I want to have fixed sizes, but float in the middle of the page.

Hey,

I've been working on this site for most of the morning. I got a job deconstructing a table based layout into full CSS. After a few setbacks (I couldn't seem to get the floats to display properly in all browsers -- which is a major stipulation) I decided on using absolute positioning.

Well, now I got the pages displaying the same in all browsers -- except a medium sized glitch -- I can't figure out how to get all three (or two on the second template) to be the same length.

For example:

On this page -- http://triplelproductions.com/designs/business/freeordination/index3.html -- The right and left columns are longer than the middle. I can't seem to get them to perfectly match eachother no materr what the amount of content is within any column. (The second template is here if you need to see -- http://triplelproductions.com/designs/business/freeordination/index4.html --) And the CSS is located here: http://triplelproductions.com/designs/business/freeordination/images/tlpcustom1.css

What I need to do is fix that so all my columns are the same length, no matter how much/little each column contains.

An alternative to this is using a background color to fill in the space that's left, but when I set the background color for my container it doesn't show.

I know that's an easy fix, but after staring at this code/site all morning, my eyes are burning and my brain is blocked. So if anyone can offer me any solutions (that does not include major code reworking) please do!

Thanks in advance guys, you'll be saving me major hours of frustration!!

hey folks,

i'm very new to webdesign, with about as much html experience as it takes to write an expressive lj entry.

on a tight budget, rather than hiring even friends to do it, i'm designing http://www.destructibleheart.com for my small press. most of the site's simple enough that i can get away with what i know. but for the STORE part of the site, there's content that gets pretty inelegant if i'm not careful.

so i've got a bar across the bottom in an IFRAME with all the thumbnails of the book covers, and above it another IFRAME that features book info, bigger cover image, and author info, etc.

I'm going freakin' insane here, and it is (of course) because of the different ways IE and Firefox display HTML and CSS.

Here is my site:

http://www.shifuimam.com/site.zip

I can't post links to it, because the only Windows web server I have access to is from my university, and it's password-protected.

There are three pages in that archive, plus all the includes and whatnot to make them display properly. browse.asp displays fine in IE and Firefox. faq.asp and category.asp, however, shift the content of the page down a bit for no explicable reason. I thought it was because of the tables on those two pages, but when I added a table to another page that was working fine, it displayed without any problems.

Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated.

Oh - the databases are also included so all the stuff displays correctly. I know some of you might tell me to not use Access, and I normally wouldn't, but my teacher in this class requested we use Access databases so that he could see our database structure more easily.

Thanks in advance for any help provided!!
