1. Sharepoint 2007 Master pages query

    Date: 09/01/07 (IT Professionals)    Keywords: programming, html, technology, asp, java, web, microsoft

    Hi all,

    I've been battling with creating (rather modifying a custom page someone else before me has created) a custom master page for my company for a while now; it looks great-ish, but there's a major flaw in there, behind the scenes it's full of errors; I have to link the master page to just about every file such as newForm.aspx and etc. further the most major issue is that a non admin user can't see the custom content; but farm admins can see the custom content just fine.

    I suspect there's a whole lot missing in the master page (as I've tried the same thing with a default page, and it worked fine, so my permission settings are fine, even though for non Admins it says "error: access denied", the issue is the master sheet for sure, since the error dissapears  when i switch back to one of MOSS default masters) thing is i don't have enough knowledge of master pages (I am relatively new to SharePoint 2007; having worked with 2003 years ago. I've never done any major customizations like this one)  to fix it on my own, even though i've spent the past few weeks trying to do so.

    The project I'm working on (an intranet for a media company) is due to go live Sept 9th, thing is, without proper user permissions it'll be tricky to make it work properly, and I've been battling with the master page for about two weeks now trying to make it work, I fix one issue, but keep finding more.

    I appreciate any and all the help i can get on this one as all the code's starting to look the same to me now, and maybe a fresh set of eyes will help.

    Master page code and screenshot of what it looks like and what it should look like for all users below the cuts, if you need any extra info please contact me, and I'll provide for you; I really really appreciate it if someone can help me out on this one.

  3. Firefox never shows HTML the way its intended to be viewed

    Date: 09/01/07 (Mozilla)    Keywords: html

    Whenever I'm viewing someone's livejournal, myspace, etc firefox always ruins it. When I make a layout, the HTML is never displayed the way I want it, if at all. I really don't feel like making a separate code to put in my overrides just so it will look like how it's intended to while using firefox. Is there a simpler way to make layouts look like they should? Or is there a way I can view other people's profiles/journals on firefox where the HTML shows up like it should? '

    Lately FF seems to be pulling old HTML on some web pages, such as my own, when I'm building them.  I'll be doing testing, changing the page, and refreshing - but FF doesn't seem to be catching the changes, until I clear all personal data and restart (this is is mac) - is here a hard reset I can do to the history to change this?

    Just a minute ago, when I tried to save an html file, it said a sharing violation had occurred. Now I am looking at my webpage online and I it appears to be linking to the css sheet twice.

  7. Style Switching

    Date: 09/09/07 (PHP Community)    Keywords: php, css, html

    Hello, I have a small problem with understanding how the this style switcher doesn't work with more than two css layouts.


    It is simple:

    Before Html:

    < ?php
    $thestyle = $_GET['set'];
    if ($thestyle == "style1")
    {
    $thestyle = "style2";
    }
    else
    {
    $thestyle = "style1";
    }
    ? >

    In the head:
    < link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="< ?php echo($thestyle);? >.css" >

    In the html:
    < form name="jump" >
    < select name="menu" style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#333333;background-color:#FFFFFF;text-decoration:none;font-size:8pt; width:150px;" >
    < option value="index.php?set=style1">gray< /option >
    < option value="index.php?set=style2">blue< /option >
    < /select >
    < input type="button" onClick="location=document.jump.menu.options[document.jump.menu.selectedIndex].value;" class="sebutton" value="GO" >
    < /form >

    If I try to add a third layout, it causes an error. What am I doing wrong? Appreciative of any help.

    Forget what I said. Still need help.

  8. Recommended Free Windows & Linux HTML Editor (Open Source)

    Date: 09/11/07 (Java Web)    Keywords: html

    I have tried several HTML Editors over the years. One of the earliest WYSIWYG HTML editor I used was Netscape Gold / Composer, which was quite basic but probably the only one at that time (1995). For quite sometime after that I used Visual Page, even when the product was discontinued because of its simplicity [...]

  9. Divs, Fixed Positioning, and Scrolling

    Date: 09/11/07 (WebDesign)    Keywords: browser, html

    So here's the deal: I've only recently nixed tables, etc. in favor of 100% div-based layout. I'm trying to do something and I'm not sure if it's 100% possible and I'm dumb for not knowing how, or just not something that's doable in a fully browser-compatible way.

    The site (still under construction, so please don't criticize the obvious big flaws at the moment! I'm aware and fixing them :) is www.sweetcarolinesnyc.com. Specifically, go to www.sweetcarolinesnyc.com/about.html, because that's where my issue comes into play.

    So, a few things about this site: I've set a background image with the top piano/logo banner built into it. You'll notice that at the bottom, I also have a fixed-position address/contact info bar.

    You'll also see that when that main content div exceeds the available screenspace, scrolling kind of makes the site messy. The top content of the div scrolls up over my title and piano keys, and the bottom of the content scrolls along under my fixed bottom gif, making it impossible to read.

    I've considered a few workaround fixes: nixing the background image and making it two sliced, absolute-positioned images, the top part with a z-index of 2 and the bottom part with a z-index of -1. And giving up on the fixed positioning of my bottom bar and just allowing it to hang out at the bottom of the content waiting for someone to scroll to it. Or, setting a set height for my content div and accepting a small auto-scrollbar inside the page for when content is too big.

    But what I'm wondering: is there a way to have this page set up the way I really WANT it set up, without the bugs? In other words--the background image to stay a background image, my fixed bottom gif staying fixed, and the main page scrollbar controlling ONLY that main, moveable content. Am I dreaming? (Or am I just dumb and missing something obvious?)

    Thoughts?

  11. Adding a header image

    Date: 09/14/07 (WebDesign)    Keywords: browser, css, html

    Hi! I'm new to this community, but I've got a simple question, I think. I'm working on a site for one of my school's clubs, and I can't figure out how to add a header image. I'm new to HTML and CSS, so I'm quite clueless, to be honest. I'm still learning, so any advice would be GREAT.

    I tried to add one, but it didn't work.

    Also, I hope it has been looking quite bad in some browsers. I haven't validated it yet or anything, so... yes. Does anyone know a way that I can make it more IE/Firefox friendly?

    It hasn't been working for a few people in FF, and I know it looks bad in older versions of IE (and even in later versions, on some occasions). It's just frustrating, because it looks fine for me, and I use Firefox as well. Ahhh!

    Sorry, this turned out to be a lot longer than I'd expected!

    Help? Thanks! :D

  12. Never used tables, but something weird is going on....

    Date: 09/14/07 (WebDesign)    Keywords: html, web

    EDIT: BIG QUESTION, I'm speaking to someone right now that says you can not put a table inside an html page. It won't work on some servers and that is why mine it's not working.

    IS THIS TRUE!?

    Ok - I'm creating a website for an author. First page is fine! I think, well this second page is going to take me like 30 minutes. Huh hu, sure... I've been on this crap for like four hours total! He has a bibliography page - a simple table, book thumbnail that opens up to link or larger image on one side, about the book on the other side. Repeat like 30 times.

    Well, first I tried just using his table coding - stuck it in my html file and saw it in dreamweaver and everything! looked great! When I uploaded my files to awardspace.com it acted as if the page doesn't exist.

    So I figure, even though it looks fine in Dreamweaver, something is seriously wrong, and I just need to re-code by myself.

    I do the first collumn, test, fine - now I'm on like the 10th collumn or row O_O - and decide to test it out again. Awardspace is acting like it doesn't exist again! No page at all!

    All I can think is it's something to do with the fact that I'm using the links to his images (which of course won't show up) and thumbnails. But I figured, even if it didn't show up, or if something was wrong - wouldn't the file still exist?!

    Anyone have any helpful advice? Not sure where to proceed from here.

  13. Last few remaining excuses not to try Linux dragged off and shot

    Date: 09/15/07 (Computer Geeks)    Keywords: software, html, linux

    Those who have been resisting Linux will have their last excuses removed by the following program:

    http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/Boot-Manager-Disk/Wubi.shtml

    Excuses excuses excuses

    1. I don't have a CDROM drive / I don't want to burn CDs / I don't HAVE CDs

    Wubi downloads and mounts Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04 directly from hard disk. No optical drives required.

    2. I don't want to format another partition

    Wubi doesn't need another partition. It creates a virtual disk volume inside your Windows partition that's nothing but a FILE.

    3. Undoing the Linux is a pain in the ass

    Not with Wubi, because the uninstall program undoes the dual boot and removes the boot entry painlessly. It does it from the Vista bootloader too, so it could go back from Vista/Ubuntu OR Vista/XP/Ubuntu tripleboot with equal ease (yes, Wubi is the easiest way to triple boot Vista/XP/Ubuntu that I have ever seen. Note: If triplebooting, do not go directly to Ubuntu on the Vista boot menu after first boot; Go to XP entry, then finish the install from the "Ubuntu" bootloader entry in the XP bootloader)

    4. What if I want to reinstall? I'd have to download all over again

    Oh no you don't. Tell Wubi to save backup ISO when uninstalling. Reinstallation is as easy as telling the install to install on the same drive letter again.

    5. Too much trouble to install on multiple machines on my home network

    What kind of dumb excuse is that?? But anyways, I discovered this trick myself- Uninstall, copy the "wubi-save" backup directory created by the uninstall to all the computers you want, and install on all the machines. Wubi does not care about the difference between reinstalled and copied backups.

    6. Nvidia cards are fine but my ATI card dies

    Okay. You're kind of semi-out of luck. ATI bites. But you can still try using Envy to work around the card http://thedarkmaster.wordpress.com/2007/03/12/install-painlessly-nvidia-or-ati-proprietary-drivers-on-ubuntu-edgy-dapper/

    If that doesn't work, try Ubuntu Ultimate Edition (I may have to do that on my new gaming machine because of the @#$% X1900GT locking up the screen before I could do anything in an xwindow): http://ubuntusoftware.info/faq.html

    There. No more excuses. If you're on Windows and still haven't tried Linux, hop to it. I used Wubi on my dual-procesor PIII server and it was easy as cake, in some respects even easier than Windows.

    What, more?

    7. Installing like that would make it work slowly

    It didn't "work slowly" on mine. I still watched hi-resolution anime fansub using the included player (after some updating). The funny thing is that had I tried to use windows programs on that machine to play the same file it would stutter badly. The Linux way of handling things is probably more efficient.

    8. I can't access files in Windows partition / Windows network from Linux right away

    You can. Ubuntu played nice with Windows after Wubi installed it.

  17. IE 7 Cheshire Cat Syndrom

    Date: 09/22/07 (WebDesign)    Keywords: browser, css, html, web

    Hi, I'm new to the site though I've been watching it for a while.
    I'm also relatively new at webdesign. I work under Windows XP SP2. (And I'm French, so be kind to my syntax).

    I met a weird display in IE 7, images positioned with float:left are partially vanishing and reappearing when scrolling down... 'Partially' means half or a third of the picture becomes more or less transparent.

    I searched the Web, found a lot of explanations about HasLayout (which I didn't really understand). Eventually the only efficient patch was to move my pictures from left... to right. Yes, they're correctly displayed now. As my young customer won't be disturbed by this solution I'll hold to it, but I'm curious...
    How can this kind of problem of float/display in IE be fixed ?
    I'll add the bug occures only in IE7, display is okay (with hacks) in 6, 5.5 and 5.

    Second question: I had to use a table (yerk, I know, I prefer pure CSS too) because I couldn't properly fix three columns in various resolutions, browsers and versions - but when displayed in Opera (8 and 7), parts of the text are underlined (like links), but it changes when scrolling down, underlined then not underlined then again... There's no mistakes in the links, the page is xhtml validated.

  18. Design Practices

    Date: 09/23/07 (WebDesign)    Keywords: php, html, asp, web

    Hello! I'm here with a request for help.

    I've been designing personal websites for about 7-8 years now. Lately I've been feeling pretty unhappy with what I'm creating. Due to being busy with school, I've fallen behind on coding practices and don't really use PHP or newer HTML forms/styles. Coding has always been my favorite part of maintaining sites, so this is a bit stressing (not to mention embarrassing).

    However, I am struggling the most with the design aspect of website creation. I'm wondering if any readers/posters here could point me in the direction of resources (eg tutorials, tips, gallery examples) of how to design good graphics. I'm concerned that I'm missing the basic elements of this process, such as what makes a good layout, how to do popular effects in a graphics program, little things of which the designer should be aware, and so forth. I know my way around Paint Shop Pro 7 (that's the limit of my abilities, I'm afraid), so I don't necessarily need an introduction to the tools available... but more or less how to use those tools to create aesthetic graphics.

    In other words, any resources available (preferably for free, but if you have a book that'd you'd really recommend I would appreciate that, too) concerning design or possibly PHP would be wonderful.

    Thanks so much in advance!

  19. Doctypes are evil...

    Date: 09/25/07 (Web Development)    Keywords: browser, html

    I'm having a somewhat horrible problem.
    The following page appears as desired. I've tested it on many different browsers and the only one with a slight variation is Internet Explorer.

    http://www.ledgers.com/conference_test.html

    I went to validate it and ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE.
    Seriously. It said the doctype was wrong, even after attempting to fix it. Using Dreamweaver to convert it to another type breaks some elements of the design, specifically the tooltips. It won't validate properly because of the doctype problem, so I'm not even sure if the problems pointed out in the entire document are what they said they are seeing as they added some standard doctype just so it would validate as SOMETHING. Ugh...

    I don't know...
    I need some help if it can be given. What have I done wrong and how can I save what I've done?
    PLEASE HELP. I'm so desperate I could cry.
