How do I remove a html code from my front page on my website?

I put a html code into my website to add a banner to one of my page. This bannner did some weird thing like deleting some of my other data on the page. When I go to remove this banner there is not a box to delete it. I cant seem to find a way to remove this banner. This morning the affiliate company that gave me this banner contacted me and gave me what they said was a "remove code". I went into my website and added this "remove code" to the page, and the most horrible thing happened. Instead of removing this banner, this "code" added a second banner to the page, just like the first one. I cant figure out how to get this darn banner, and the second one, now off of this site. Can anyone help me. The page is in Tripod, and I have been using "Site Builder" to do the adding and deleting. Any help would be appreciated.

How do I remove a html code from my front page on my website?
Do you have a web page editor? You will also need a FTP program. Enter you site address in the FTP program, the user name and password and then connect. You will have a windows like interface with your web address where you can download and upload pages. I'm giving you a link to a web page editor and a free FTP client. Download your web page and edit out the extra code, upload it. Hope it works for you, good luck!
Reply:HTML is forgiving about leaving off the closing code. Example %26lt;table%26gt;%26lt;/table%26gt;, we can get away with leaving off the last markup. Usually, when you have added to a page or taken something off you have messed up this balancing act of open-command, close-command.
Reply:Lmao you got scammed. xD
Reply:View, Source then delete the html code in that. OR you may have typed the correct thing but must have forgotten to close the tag or a minor spelling error. Check it. Good Luck.
Reply:open the page in notepad (View %26gt;%26gt; Source) and delete the html code in that... save and try again.
Reply:Is there a "contact us" or help on Tripod? Maybe they can help you.
Reply:Okay first thing to do is find the code: look under view and highlight source and it will show you what to use to delete the banners.

How do you make html animation and color the background?

I have been fiddling with web pae and I really need some help so for those java programmers can you give a hint or two!

How do you make html animation and color the background?
1] You can create animation in HTML


Dreamweaver is able to create animation through clever use of JavaScript. Unlike Flash, which creates animation along Vector paths and timelines, JavaScript creates animation by plotting the location of an object in conjunction with time between each plot


Use dreamweaver to try this concept.





ch out the link


http://www.sitepoint.com/article/animati...





=================





2] The HTML to change the background color is simple:


Syntax


%26lt;TAGNAME bgcolor="value"%26gt;





chk out following examples:


%26lt;table bgcolor="lime" border="1"%26gt;%26lt;tr%26gt;


%26lt;td%26gt;A lime colored table background using color names.%26lt;/td%26gt;


%26lt;/tr%26gt;%26lt;/table%26gt;


-------------------------


%26lt;table bgcolor="#ff0000" border="1"%26gt;%26lt;tr%26gt;


%26lt;td%26gt;A red colored table background using hexadecimal values "#FF0000".%26lt;/td%26gt;


%26lt;/tr%26gt;%26lt;/table%26gt;


-------------------------


%26lt;table bgcolor="rgb(0, 0, 255)" border="1"%26gt;%26lt;tr%26gt;


%26lt;td%26gt;A blue colored table background using RGB values "rgb(0, 0, 255)".%26lt;/td%26gt;


%26lt;/tr%26gt;%26lt;/table%26gt;


-------------------------


With CSS you are able to set the background color or image of any CSS element. chk out couple examples of CSS backgrounds


http://www.tizag.com/cssT/background.php
Reply:Well for starters java may be the way you need to go or another animation tool such as Flash. As regular HTML coding will not do what you want, as the code will link to executable but is not executable itself.





As for BG Color codes for Back Ground colors there a lots: go here: http://www.geocities.com/siliconvalley/n...
Reply:use %26lt;body bgcolor="#333333"%26gt; code. U can change the digits I put here to change color.
Reply:Animations are generally done using Flash these days, but you could also use javascript, applets, or even your own custom plugin (not recommended). There are other obscure ways as well.

How do I create an HTML based report that, through a form, allows me to enter multiple sets of data...?

How do I create an HTML based report that, through a form, allows me to enter multiple sets of data? The data would include text as well as images. Basically, I'm wanting to create a multi-column table, that can be updated via a separate form that uploads the data to the table, and automatically alphabetizes the data. Any thoughts?

How do I create an HTML based report that, through a form, allows me to enter multiple sets of data...?
For this you will need some help of a Server Side Programming Language such as PHP, ASP, etc etc...





Not possible using only HTML.

How to dynamically position html element depending on screen specs?

What would the javascript code be like?

How to dynamically position html element depending on screen specs?
JavaScript!? No No No!





Use a CSS file to tell it that is should have a margin-left (or right, or top, or bottom, what ever takes your fancy) of x%





So, if I have a %26lt;div id='holder'%26gt; and I want it to be 40% wide, and centered easily:





div#holder {


width:40%;


margin-left:30%;


}


How do you put html text in a box without the html showing?

like... in myspace, im gonna give someone the html code of a picture... but i dont want the picture to show... just the html code... like there's a box or something... then the html code is inside... how do you do that?

How do you put html text in a box without the html showing?
Convert the %26lt; and %26gt; symbols to their HTML entities, which are %26amp; lt; and %26amp; gt; respectively.





Remove the spaces in %26amp; lt; and %26amp; gt; I had to use them so Answers would show them.
Reply:Well, you could set the value...or you could have fun with the DOM. Create a bookmarklet, as JavaScript has full access to the DOM, ID the box, and slip in the value. Of course, this requires the intelligence necessary not to post this in the Programming section, so you must be out of luck, sweetie!
Reply:There is the way which is what you mentioned, with text area!





For example:


%26lt;textarea%26gt;


%26lt;img src="http://URL.gif"%26gt;


%26lt;/textarea%26gt;





You can also format colors and fonts of your text area using CSS but that's another thing.

How do I add, a back to top option on my webpage using publisher.Also html for pop up when leaving a site?
"Back to top" is commonly done via an "anchor link", meaning it's a link to a certain area of the page...check your help documentation for anchor links.





as for the pop up on leaving, you might run a search on javascript source code site, I'm pretty sure you'll find what you're looking for.

How to view the html source code of the email, not the Yahoo javascript?

How do you make a break between two pictures in html code?

I'm messing around on my myspace page and there are two pictures that are literally on top of eachother. I wanted there to be a space in between them and I don't know how to write that into the code. I understand codes somewhat but I don't understand how to do this because the picture codes for each of them are separate but in form they look connected and I don't like that. Please be detailed in your answers as I am only a layman!

How do you make a break between two pictures in html code?
Try this:





%26lt;table border="0" width="100%"%26gt;


%26lt;tr%26gt;


%26lt;td%26gt;%26lt;img src="YourPic1.jpg" border="0" /%26gt;%26lt;/td%26gt;


%26lt;td width="1%"%26gt; %26lt;/td%26gt;


%26lt;td%26gt;%26lt;img src="YourPic2.jpg" border="0" /%26gt;%26lt;/td%26gt;


%26lt;/tr%26gt;


%26lt;/table%26gt;





You can just increase the "1%" to a larger value which will give you more space.
Reply:....
Reply:Type in
space between br and slash. Just plug this in between two pictures that you want spaced out.
Reply:%26lt;br%26gt; between the two %26lt;img%26gt; tags would put the images vertically next to each other, to achieve a vertical blank space a second %26lt;br%26gt; would be required.





%26amp; n b s p (all one word without the spaces)  between the two %26lt;img%26gt; tags would put the images horizontally next to each other, with a blank space in-between.

If you don't already know html or coding, you are wasting your time. Making a forum is not a small job. One recommendation: go to Craigslist and advertise for a programmer and see if anyone responds to help you out.

Reply:You want to look into getting drag-and-drop software for creating your website. However, in the long run it might be worthwhile to learn basic HTML.





Examples:


Microsoft Frontpage


Adobe Dreamweaver
Reply:you CAN do it without knowing HTML. If you do, please do not use any microsoft products to make your pages. They can be good products, and are easy to use. The problem is that microsoft internet explorer uses A LOT of tags and content that other browsers do not support. All of their html generators like to use those tags, so your pages won't always work for nearly 40% of web users.





Adobe seems to have a pretty good set of tools (they are expensive for a reason).





But really no matter what you do, you will only benefit yourself by learning at least some HTML. In a weeks time just spending 30 minutes a day you can learn most of the HTML language. In fact you could read through the entire spec in less time than it will take you to go to the store and buy software to make the pages for you.

How do you hyperlink a text like this using HTML or others?

Hi,





I know how to hyperlink a normal text by using





%26lt;a href="link"%26gt;text%26lt;/a%26gt;





But how do you hyperlink a text where the underline only appears when you onmouseover it? Like the Sign Out or My Account on top of the Yahoo! Answers page. Hope there is an expert out there who can help. Thanks a lot.

How do you hyperlink a text like this using HTML or others?
Use CSS to define a class for the desired link properties, like so:





%26lt;style%26gt;


a.tclass:link {text-decoration: none;}


a.tclass:visited {text-decoration: none;}


a.tclass:active {text-decoration: none;}


a.tclass:hover {text-decoration: underline;}


%26lt;/style%26gt;





Then call the class in the link:


%26lt;a href="" class="tclass"%26gt;text to link%26lt;/a%26gt;





And bone up on CSS:


http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp
Reply:You can use CSS.





Between the %26lt;HEAD%26gt; and %26lt;/HEAD%26gt; tags, write this:





%26lt;STYLE type="text/css"%26gt;


A:link {text-decoration: none}


A:visited {text-decoration: none}


A:hover {text-decoration: underline}


A:active {text-decoration: none}


%26lt;/STYLE%26gt;





Link is a plain link (usually navy blue)


Visited is a link that's already been clicked upon (usually purple)


Hover is when you have a mouseover state


Active is a link when you click on it (red, but not used much anymore)
Reply:Cascading Style Sheets (CCS) can be used for this. What you'll do is set one style for regular links and one for links with a mouse over them. Do as the other answerer said and google a web tutorial.

Is it possible to insert a database to a html dropdown menu?

What I'm trying to do is, insert a oracle database into a dropdown menu using flash or fireworks or whatever works, so when the database is updated the dropdown would include those updates. I hope this makes sense, if you need more clarification let me know.

Is it possible to insert a database to a html dropdown menu?
The preferred method is to use a server side scripting technology which requires that your server have the platform installed on it. You can't do this with just flash alone since it would present a huge open hole to your database if people could just make requests from things hosted on a web page.





The two hot ones right now are PHP and ASP.NET. Both have huge user communities to help new users get started, and both have a very active development community making the technology better every day.





In asp.net the construct is called "databinding". In the code, behind your page (on page load), you just do something like





myDropdownlist.dataSource =


myOracleHelper.GetSomeCodesAndValues("... staement");





myDropdownlist.DataValueField = "codeValue";





myDropdownlist.DataTextField = "description";





myDropdownlist.DataBind();





With something like that, the list presented to users would be updated any time you edit the table in the database.





For some beginners information on how asp.net works, check out http://www.asp.net/get-started/


further beginners video tutorials can be found burried in the menus at msdn.microsoft.com
Reply:You could do it with php.
Reply:you should be able to incorporate some server side code using Flash's Actionscript (if you are already using a flash based site).





Fireworks? isn't that basically photoshop? I don't know what that would have to do with database connectivity.





You are going to need some sort of Server Side scripting. Find what kinds of scripting your server supports and go with that one.

What do people think about HTML in email newsletters?

If you sign up for email updates or notices from a company, are you put off by HTML formatting (images / background colors / etc) in the emails? Is there a point where the HTML formatting is too much? How to you feel about: inline links, font-sizes / text-formatting, background colors, tables, etc? What's acceptable and what isn't?

What do people think about HTML in email newsletters?
I think most are better WITH the HTML formatting than without. Although, if there is too much formatting or too many pictures so that it takes a long time to load, it doesn't look good at all.
Reply:it's better if the email contains the HTML code


looks better and easier to comprehend
Reply:As long as they are not using the HTML formatting to display banner ads it is okay. It usually adds to the readability of the newsletter.


How can I convert an HTML page into a graphic?

I just finished an HTML page and I want to email a preview as to how the site will look. How can I email it as a picture with sending over the completed HTML file?

How can I convert an HTML page into a graphic?
Easiest method I still use....





1) Hit "Print Screen" on your keyboard.


2) Paste it into a photo editing program (Photoshop) or even Microsoft Paint.


3) Save as JPG
Reply:Hey, I work as an assistant webdesigner. If you made a html page and you want to see it copy all of you html code and paste it in notepad under accesories in your start menu then save it as the title what you want then ad htm at the end of your name for example Jonswebsite.htm also dont use any spaces. If that doesnt work open up microsoft front page under start menu when that opens open your html document in front page. Once it opens click design, you will se it on the bottom of the page. Good Luck.
Reply:You could do a screen dump. Under Windows you can hold down control and press the "print screen" key on the keyboard (usually found in the upper right-hand corner of the keyboard to the right of the function keys). Then you open Microsoft Paint and select "Paste" from the edit menu. You can then save the picture as a .JPG or other file format suitable for using as an email attachment.
Reply:You can add as an attachment of your email.


Or you can press PRT SCR button in your keyboard and paste it in a graphic editor program. Then you can save it or export in a format you like, for exampe jpeg or bmp.
Reply:Press the Print Screen button. Then paste it into MSPaint...





Of course, this assumes you are running Windows... If another OS, please let me know.
Reply:Take a screen shot of the page by selecting "Print Screen" and then open it in a program like Photo Shop by hitting Control V.





Your other option is to put the mock up on a server on a temporary page and send the link to the person you are trying to share this with.


I want to make an indent on my webpage does this require html?

I would like to indent my text however, just simply indenting isn't working is there an html for this? Also, what cool html codes can I put on my site to make it not just about content. I want more possibly video?! Well, I don't know, you are the expert so please tell me!

I want to make an indent on my webpage does this require html?
There are a few ways to indent using HTML, all of which have their drawbacks. I'd recommend using a simple CSS code like this.





In the head section:


%26lt;STYLE TYPE="text/css"%26gt;


%26lt;!--


.indented


{


padding-left: 50pt;


padding-right: 50pt;


}


--%26gt;


%26lt;/STYLE%26gt;


Then add the following to your paragraph %26lt;p%26gt; tag:


%26lt;P CLASS="indented"%26gt;





As for cool codes, you might look into Javascript. It has a lot more capabilities than HTML.
Reply:The guy above me (catbertnc) basically explained the indent, so I can explain the video/music additions and stuff.





Basically, I advise if you want background music to NOT USE %26lt;bgsound="URL"%26gt; because only Internet Explorer accepts that code and Firefox, Opera and others won't play the sound clip. And if it's gonna be background music then try to have it be a small MIDI file that can loop repeatedly without it being TOO obvious. If you want background music, use the %26lt;embed src="URL" width="x" height="y" autostart="y/n"%26gt; (URL, x, y and y/n are VARIABLES) although, if you want it SEEMLESS background music that code would be:


%26lt;embed src="URL" width="0" height="0" autostart="true"%26gt; but if you want the play/pause button visible:


%26lt;embed src="URL" width="60" height="60: autostart="true"%26gt;





if you want the music to be streaming if the user CHOOSES to listen to it, then you just create a new page and use the exact same code as above, just change the height and width.





For VIDEOS:


look at the youtube code:


%26lt;object width="425" height="355"%26gt;%26lt;param name="movie" value="URL"%26gt;%26lt;/param%26gt;%26lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"%26gt;%26lt;/param%26gt;%26lt;embed src="URL" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"%26gt;%26lt;/embed%26gt;%26lt;/object%26gt;





it doesn't have to be NEARLY as complicated. But, I advise that you convert the video files into a Flash .flv format that has a play-pause button so it doesn't continue to play when the person needs it to pause.





really, you can just use a simpler code like this:





%26lt;embed src="URL" width="x" height="y" autostart="y/n"%26gt; (once again, variables)


all of the multimedia where URL shows up, make sure it is NOT THE PAGE, but THE FILE'S LINK. all the width and height measurements are in PIXELS, and the only two options for autostart are True and False.





Tips for video


have the width and height the same as the file that's being embedded, to keep the best quality.


Turn the file into a .flv with a play-pause button





Tips for Audio


try to have a play-pause button visible (i recommend 60 x 60) so that the user can pause the music.


Keep the file size small so the clip loads faster and doesn't freeze and chop up.





Oh yeah:


WATCH YOUR BANDWIDTH. Media like streaming video and audio are bandwidth (data transfer) hogs and can easily send you over your limit with your provider.

How do I use HTML to make the font size smaller than the HTML 1 size?

I want to make font on a website smaller than the standard HTML 1 size (which isn't 1pt).


I tried putting 1pt, like I've seen before, but that made the text about 36pt.


I DO NOT want to use CSS, as all it does is confuses me.


Thanks in advance.

How do I use HTML to make the font size smaller than the HTML 1 size?
HTML cannot put font size into pixel (px). The %26lt;font size="1"%26gt; not means that thhe font size is just 1px (not pt), it is 9px actually. I really recommend you use CSS styles to help you, I can teach you.





%26lt;head%26gt;


%26lt;style%26gt;


BODY { font-size: 1px !Important;} (put !Important for IE problem)


%26lt;/style%26gt;


%26lt;/head%26gt;





After add in that CSS style within your %26lt;head%26gt;%26lt;/head%26gt;, every font in your website you can show it how small you want.
Reply:but !important can be overridden by a viewers internal style sheet they set up in their own browser.





another thing to is in style sheets there is no upper limit on font-size. try font-size:2000pt :)


How do you have round borders in html web pages?

I would like to have round corners at the borders on my web pages that would look more stylish than the normal sharp corners.


Hope you can help.

How do you have round borders in html web pages?
This border with round corners effect will only work if the curves are called up after the horizontal and vertical lines in the HTML code. This is because each new %26lt;div%26gt; is effectively a layer on top of the previous %26lt;div%26gt;.





By calling up the horizontal and vertical lines first, we can then layer the round curves on top of these lines through our CSS background commands. The outside colour of the curves is white (not transparent) and hides the sharp edges of the corners, creating our desired round corners effect.














Here is the Html code.





%26lt;div class="t"%26gt;%26lt;div class="b"%26gt;%26lt;div class="l"%26gt;%26lt;div class="r"%26gt;%26lt;div class="bl"%26gt;%26lt;div class="br"%26gt;%26lt;div class="tl"%26gt;%26lt;div class="tr"%26gt;


Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit


%26lt;/div%26gt;%26lt;/div%26gt;%26lt;/div%26gt;%26lt;/div%26gt;%26lt;/div%26gt;%26lt;/div%26gt;%26lt;/...





And the CSS that makes a round corner border is:





.t {background: url(dot.gif) 0 0 repeat-x; width: 20em}


.b {background: url(dot.gif) 0 100% repeat-x}


.l {background: url(dot.gif) 0 0 repeat-y}


.r {background: url(dot.gif) 100% 0 repeat-y}


.bl {background: url(bl.gif) 0 100% no-repeat}


.br {background: url(br.gif) 100% 100% no-repeat}


.tl {background: url(tl.gif) 0 0 no-repeat}


.tr {background: url(tr.gif) 100% 0 no-repeat; padding:10px}





Play with it and see how it looks

How can I used mailto to have the email client recognize a string as HTML?

I have a HTML page that I am trying to email to someone, but the page is all marked up with HTML tags. I would like to use the mailTo command to send the page to my email client and have the email client recognize/parse the HTML tags to produce a readable email. How do I do this?

How can I used mailto to have the email client recognize a string as HTML?
The answer to your question depends on just what sort of HTML tags you have, and what email client you are using, because there are variations out there. But here's a way to do it, if the HTML is valid HTML that a browser can display with no problems, and if you are using Outlook Express. Any email client will be similar, but the details would be different.





First, select "Create Mail".





At the bottom of the compose window, click the "Source" tab.





Use Wordpad or Notepad or a similar text editor to open the file containing the HTML code you want to send. Select the code, not including the HTML, HEAD or BODY tags, and copy it to your clipboard.





Go back to the window where you selected "Source", and paste the code in, in the proper place.





It's possible some of the code belongs in the HEAD section, and the rest belongs in the BODY section. I trust you can place the code correctly.





Select the "Preview" tab to make sure the result is what you wanted.





You will need to select the "Edit" tab in order to send the message.

How do I pass a variable from an embedded .swf flash file to html?

I am trying to figure out how to pass a variable from flash to an html page. For example: Lets say I have an html page with an embedded flash .swf file and a read only text box, and when the user clicks on button 1 in the flash file, the text box reads 'One', and when the user clicks on button 2, the text box reads 'Two'. Keep in mind that the text box isn't in the flash .swf file, but on the html page itself.





I've looked around quite a bit and can't seem to find the solution. All I've found is a bunch of articles on how to pass variable to a swf file, not retrieve them from it.

How do I pass a variable from an embedded .swf flash file to html?
You will have to do this via javascript. You can have your flash actionscript call javascript functions on the HTML page. Then through that you can easily set the text of a textbox using javascript DOM functionality.





The following message board talks a bit about it and provides some code that shows you some actionscript / javascript action. This should give you an idea of how you can merge the two to produce your desired result.

How do you find out what the HTML code is of webpage you're viewing?

Also: Is it legal to copy html code from another website?

How do you find out what the HTML code is of webpage you're viewing?
In Internet Explorer: Right-click and click on View Source to get a box with the HTML.





In Firefox: Right-click and click on View Page Source.





Its legality is somewhat of a gray area; using it for learning purposes is fine, but blatantly copying someone else's code without asking them and referencing them violates copyright law.





Note: in well-written webpages, this won't include the CSS (layout) code, so it may be slightly useless for trying to copy a design. For that, you have to find the stylesheet link that'll be near the top of the page, and it'll say something like http://blah.com/blah/blah3.css; this is a CSS file that you can download that will contain the layout code.
Reply:right click on the webpage and go to view source a txt box will pop up with the code and it is perfectly legal or you wouldnt be able to get it.
Reply:In Internet Explorer, go to "View --%26gt; Source". This process is similar in other browsers.


Also, if you are using the html code as if you are its author, then it is illegal.

What are differences and comparisons of HTML and Java programming?

Hi,





I was wondering if you could possibly tell me some similarities and differences between HTML and Java programming?





Thanks for your help!!

What are differences and comparisons of HTML and Java programming?
Other than both of them being object oriented programming languages, they barely have anything common.





Differences that come into mind first:


1. HTML is strictly front end language, Java is not


2. HTML is a script - it gets compiled/parsed on the fly by the browser while Java is pre-compiled into bytecode prior to become usable


3. HTML is only usable within a browser, and can barely do anything other than displaying info passed to it while Java is capabale of data processing of virtually any complexity.


4. Pretty much everything else...
Reply:HTML and java are completely different.





HTML is a markup language .. i.e. it just defines how the data must be represented which should not be confused with a programming language. You cant program any logic.





whereas Java is a programming language where you can actually provide some type of logic.
Reply:To be honest, there are very few similarities between HTML and Java.


HTML is what they call a "markup" language, and is an "interpreted" language, not a compiled one like Java. Basically, all HTML does is define the appearance and layout for webpages. When a page is loaded, the browser "reads" the HTML for the page, and it tells it where to put the various elements, what colors to make them, etc. It is not capable of performing any kind of logical checks, calculations, or data manipulation - it just defines appearance.


Java, on the other hand, is a full blown, 3rd generation programming language, capable of performing sophisiticated data manipulations and calculations. Java is a compiled language, meaning that before a Java program can be run or redistributed, it must be "compiled", which basically turns the code into a language that the computer can more easily understand.


Typically, HTML is used for the "front end", and Java is used for the "middle tier", connecting to a database at the "backend". Hope this helps a little.


How do you get HTML tags to display in a form field without rendering them?

I have a PHP page that's pulling in HTML text with tags characters included into a form field that I want to appear as HTML for editability and then save it back via PHP the way it was formatted. Unfortunately, when it loads into the form field it shows words in bold instead of having the tags around them, etc.





Do you have to format them differently in PHP before adding it to the form field? or is there a setting for form fields to keep them from applying the HTML code?

Yeah, these guys are right, but if you don't want to bother to create the code, that is not interpreted as html, you could let php do it.





Just type your html into a variable, and use the htmlspecialchars function:





$myHtml="%26lt;b%26gt; %26lt;i%26gt; %26lt;font color='red' %26gt;test %26lt;/font%26gt; %26lt;/i%26gt; %26lt;/b%26gt;";


echo htmlspecialchars( $myHtml );





This is the documentation of htmlspecialchars:


http://hu.php.net/manual/en/function.htm...





Certain characters have special significance in HTML, and should be represented by HTML entities if they are to preserve their meanings. This function returns a string with some of these conversions made; the translations made are those most useful for everyday web programming. If you require all HTML character entities to be translated, use htmlentities() instead.





This function is useful in preventing user-supplied text from containing HTML markup, such as in a message board or guest book application. The optional second argument, quote_style , tells the function what to do with single and double quote characters. The default mode, ENT_COMPAT, is the backwards compatible mode which only translates the double-quote character and leaves the single-quote untranslated. If ENT_QUOTES is set, both single and double quotes are translated and if ENT_NOQUOTES is set neither single nor double quotes are translated.
Reply:The php part have nothing to do here, it's irrelevant, what your browser show based on the html output of your php code.





Try to replace the special characters with their code (like '%26lt;' to '%26lt;' and '%26gt;' to '%26amp;rt' etc. see full explanation at http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_entit...





You can use this converter:


http://www.dustinsenos.com/character_enc...





You can also check if your html/xhtml is valid here - http://validator.w3.org/.
Reply:One way is to use the escape code equivalent...the browser will convert them to the characters but won't use the html tag formatting

Oh and it would be nice if it would keep my indenting so my code columns lined up.

How can I send an HTML newsletter by email for free?

I'm desperately trying to find out how to do this. I've looked for useful info on the internet and read several questions about it in here, but nothing works. I know HTML and I already have the webpage I want to send.





I've tried sending the HTML text but it just turns out as plain text. I've also tried saving the webpage and sending the html file in an attachment, but it doesn't display after opening the e-mail message, you have to download it. I also read I had to convert the html extension of the file to asp, I did that and didn't work either.





I really don't know what else to do. Some help would be really appreciated. I have Yahoo, Hotmail and Gmail. Thank you!

How can I send an HTML newsletter by email for free?
Well, I could be missing something but, if you are on the html you want to email "right click" mouse and choose "email this page to a friend". You would be using it as a link and of course it would maintain its integrity because it is a link. It would work, I just dont know how many emails you are sending and it might be too many hits on the website.
Reply:webcast can help you
Reply:as attachment
Reply:some email service will allow you to use HTML inorder to make html emails. you might wanna check on some of them, also you can use outlook

How do I keep my HTML page from automatically resetting itself after javascript modifies it?

I have an HTML document that is modified based on javascript actions modifying the DOM. For some reason, the last action is to reset the page, so the changes don't persist. I don't understand why.

How do I keep my HTML page from automatically resetting itself after javascript modifies it?
all changes happen inside the page. they never get out to your disk or the server... UNLESS you store your changes in a cookie or use ajax tricks to save them back on the server.





a simple thing, like which part of the dom you are showing can be done by modifying the hash part of the url (like a normal %26lt;a href="#somewhere"%26gt; and when the page is loaded you look at the hash and re-modify the dom!

What do they mean by copy and paste html on web page?

I am building my website for the first time and i am wanting to add a web form. I have installed the cgi/php script in my public html dir. I am new to this and do not understand what they mean by paste the html script script to your web page.





Can anyone please tell me from scratch how i do this without the jargon? If you could begin with the script from the public folder. Where do i go from there so i create the form i want. Step by step instructions would be appreciated a great deal.





Thank you.

go to that website, they will host your form for free. Once you understand how to do it. It'll be easier to create a form yourself.
Reply:it's not easy to tell when I don't know what php script you are running and what you want to place in.


usually what they mean is: take html code (from new file) and paste (in existing file)where you want it to appeare.


if you need real help or be done for you


please visit me at http://freeandbesthosting.com/ and come to forum
Reply:Sure, what they are saying is you can open and highlight then right click on the highlighted section and choose copy. Then go to the html source code in your editor program of choice and paste in your php source code.





Keep in mind if you are doing this with php you will need to save the file with a .php extension not a htm or html extension. PHP is a server side language so you will need to have it supported by your web server as well.





If your very new to web design I would suggest playing with embedding JavaScript to HTML first as that can be tested with a local browser.





You should know (x)HTML and CSS before learning JavaScript anyhow. You should also know JavaScript prior to PHP but that is not as important. You need a strong foundation to build the site on.





Hope that helps

How do I save an HTML web page I am creating in notepad?

I am taking a course in creating websites. I am trying to figure this out at home. I have pulled up notepad and I know I am doing everything right with HTML as far as setting up the website, but I want to see my progress as a regular web page. In class I was shown how to save a file for the notepad stuff to go to, but I don't know how to do it at home.

How do I save an HTML web page I am creating in notepad?
Edit your html with notepad and load it up in another window with your browser. When you want to see your changes save it in notepad, switch to your browser and hit F5 to reload the page.





Or better yet, download a copy of Web Developer Express from the Microsoft site. It's free and you can seamlessly switch between HTML and Web views.
Reply:save it as "%26lt;filename%26gt;.htm" or "%26lt;filename%26gt;.html" either one will do.


However, becareful, select "All files" below at the save file dialog instead of "text file", coz u might get into a file like this if u name it "abc.htm" ended up..... could be "abc.htm.txt" %26lt;- a text file instead of html file.





the tips is just make the file extension.. become .htm or html ;)
Reply:I recommend using a text editor such as PSPad ( http://pspad.com ) which offers such features as syntax highlighting and a built in browser for previewing your work. All you have to do is press F10 to have it open the current file in it's internal web browser. Far easier than saving your page every time you want to preview it.





If you are going to use Notepad then when saving change the Save as type to All Files and put .html onto the end of the file name.
Reply:HTML is really stored as text and you use Notepad (a text editor) to create it. If you save the file with .html you can preview it in a browser just by opening it.





The other option is upload the file to a server where a web server is running...





http://FATdrive.tv/
Reply:To be truly specific:


1)Get to the part in the saving process where you enter the filename for the saved file


2)Select the txt file type dropdown menu and select All Files


3)For the file name, make SURE you add a .htm or .html to the end of the name


4)Lastly, for the last dropdown menu, select Unicode





That's how I always save my webpages, and they work out just fine as long as my coding is proper.
Reply:just save it as whatever name you want .htm For example: mywebpage.htm or mywebpage.html Then open it up in firefox or IE7 and voila it appears. Good luck with your html class!
Reply:Ooh, ooh, (my hand is up). I know this one. I learned html and css at home for a hobby. I know exactly where you're at. To answer your question... Save as... change save as file type to "all files" then change the .txt extension to .html





But, if you want the very easiest way to view the html page that you are working on as you are editing it, use html-kit. I absolutely love it. Here is a link to the freeware program and the best thing is that it has hundreds of plug-ins to make web page creation a breeze. http://www.htmlkit.com/download/
Reply:Using notepad, by default the files will be saved with .txt extension. Even if you gave the file name as 'somefilename.htm', with out quotes, in the filename textbox, it would be saved as 'somefilename.htm.txt'.


To override it, while entering the filename use double quotations, such as "somefilename.htm". This wont override the file extension with .txt, so your filename will still look like 'somefilename.htm' only and if any program like firefox or internet explorer is associtated to open the .htm files, the corresponding icon will be added to your file.





You could either save the html files in .htm or .html extensions.
Reply:First, select "All Files" in the file type box, then save it with a .html or .htm extension.

I dont recommend photobucket because they have a bandwidth limit. when you upload your image, the url link for your pic goes like this: %26lt;img src="imageurl"%26gt; If you ever want a clickable image, you do this:





%26lt;a href="weblink"%26gt;%26lt;img src="imageurl"%26gt;%26lt;/a%26gt;
Reply:you cant take a picture straight from your computer...





so what you do is go here...





photobucket.com





upload your pics you want... after you create a free name/account to log in by...





then you use this code...





%26lt;img src="url to the photobucket pic"%26gt;





or you can just use the link that photobucket gives you... which is sometimes better...

Try saving the notepad file such as fred.htm - you should be now able to open in IE. If you can't save it as an htm file rename after it has been saved as a .txt file.
Reply:To create an HTML file in notepad, just create a new notepad file and change the extension to .htm or .html instead of .txt. Then you can type HTML code, and view it in a browser window. You might have to enable the display of extensions so you can see the change from .txt to .htm.
Reply:You simply write the html code, then save it giving it a name of whatever.html, select all file types before saving or it will save as text.
