I was reading some old groups.google.com posts about css class names not being allowed underscores, but hyphens are? Why exactly did the writers/drafters of the spec think this was better then allowing underscores? Most any programming languages alow _'s in identifiers and NOT -'s, like Java, C, C++, Perl, ASP, PHP, JavaScript, hell even...

I'm writing a page, and in IE the vertical scrollbar was missing. So after mega futzing I finally realized that the scrollbar was pushed off the right side of the page out of view. When I decreased a table width from 100% to 90%, there it was. Of course, this doesn't happen in Moz or Opera. I'm using a fixed DIV layer for a navbar (with...

Been searching around, and found http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/IG/ert/iso639.htm which is great, as I've been looking for a guide to what codes are acceptable. I see stuff like lang="en-us" - that extension, where is that from? Is there a codification somewhere?

About once a week, I post an FAQ pointer in this newsgroup under the same heading as this post. That pointer has two purposes: 1. To keep regulars from having to post the standard answers to standard questions again and again; if you have a standard question, you might save yourself some time by first reading the available material for this...

Have been experimenting with sending HTML by using Content ID using the cid: tag. I noticed that when the email is received in Outlook it looks great. But when received in Hotmail web based client, though it looks ok, it shows all the files that were included as cid: tagged as attachments. Not a very professional look. Anyway to not have...

I've posted to a newsgroup before regarding why it was generally a bad idea to include music on a web page, but I can't seem to find that thread anywhere. I was wondering if anyone has any links to sites that discuss music/audio playing on a website? Thanks, Peter Foti

Hello all: To deal with the problem of differing user screen resolutions, I've explored: 1) making the pages in PHP, 2) having different pages on the same page and selecting the proper one via JavaScript, and 3) using fancy redirects and forced "back skip" redirects with cookies. Every approach has some fatal flaw as far as I have been...

Hi, Anyone has the background for explaining? I have made a search on my name and I have got a link to another search engine. The link's title was the search phrase for the other search engine (a wicked phrase). Some but not all of the words of that phrase exist in my website. I reported it and they removed the link but did not give...

If you have an old website up and you want to replace it with totally different content, how do you purge the old website files that are still lingering on the host server taking up space? I find that when I put up a different site at the same address, it shows the old files still being there adding to the cumulative amount of space being...

Hey all, I just updated one of my sites to full html 4.01 and CSS compliance. I know NN4 probably messes it up, but I tested it in NN6, IE6, and Opera 7 and it looks good. I'd like it tested in IE for the Mac, Safari, Konqueror, and any other browsers you guys have to make sure it isn't totally FUBAR in any of them. The ad banners from...

It seems that there can be too many words on a line. This is a problem with pages that are not fixed width. There seems to be a few problems. 1) Finding where the next line starts after finishing a long line. 2) The pages just look too wordy and it is tiring to read. I would think that there are already "formulas" for word count,...

How can get everything to align in the vertical middle? Thank you. <table> <tr> <td> <img src="picture.gif"> TEXT_A
