Hi, I'm designing a website for the Cornell Undergraduate Business Program where the client wants faculty and student profiles to be interspersed throught the site. These profiles are contained in small boxes or tables with their bio or a statement from the student, etc., etc. The client wants an audio clip to play when the user clicks...

Hi, I was wondering what would be the way to have the same content rendered in a different way; say from a page with navigation bars presenting the text in two columns to a "printable" one without having to download the content again. Is this possible in a more or less cross-browser compliant way? Thnx

Hi, not sure if this is the right group, if not, please post a followup to the right group.

Hi... We want to write an open source web based TEXT editor and would be happy about any help ;-) Please notice: We do NOT want to write a web based WEB editor, where you can edit a web page without knowing HTML - we want to write a real programmer's editor located on a web page in your browser with features like...

May be a bit off-topic... When bots scan the web for e-mail address to use for spam, do they look at what the browser is displaying, or scan through the underlying HTML markup for e-mail addresses? At work, we have stopped displaying our webmaster e-mail on our pages and created a form that uses cgi to process and send the message. Our...

ok I apologise if this is very simple and easy to do but I need to find out how to code this... I have a frameset in HTML and when the Menu (menu.html)of the frameset loads I want it to automatically load another page (main.html)on the other side of the frame (target ="main"). I need the menu.html to do this and not the frame set! ...

Hello monsters of CSS. I was wondering if you could help me with a layout problem. Here's a test page that demonstrates the problem: http://64.142.13.246/ls/test.htm (I've given the DIVs height and color to make it obvious what contains what. In the evenual working application they would be invisible.)

I have a unique requirement to run an executable file from withing a HTML document. The HTML is actually embedded in an email sent as a notification to a user of our application.

We are preparing a page with twelve (12) drop down option/select menus, arranged vertically. It works, and it is what the user needs. The widths of the menu boxes are random now, but is there is a way to control the WIDTH of the menu boxes, so they would all be alike? Thank you for any help Rich

250free.com, a free web host, is, I think, introducing errors onto its pages with its banner code. Take a look at these pages for example: 1. http://specimencarp.250free.com/photos.htm 2. http://graystravels.250free.com/htmls/JOURNAL_amazoncreek_PART6.htm 3. http://planetgeorge.250free.com/2003-10EmCheer/index.html 4....

Is doing this bad: <h3>Some title or other...<a href="#pagetop">back to top</a></h3> I have a feeling it is... My problem is I'm using CSS to style the H3 into a block that spans the whole containing element. I would like the <a> to appear next to the title, but I'm sure this is bad practice (for screen readers and heading-level...

Is it possible to stop horizontal scrolling whilst still maintaining vertical scrolling within an <IFRAME> ? Within each page of my site I have an IFRAME for content. For some pages there is very little information to display, thus the frame has no scrolling bars, but on those where there is lots then the vertical scrolling bar appears. ...

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...

Apologies for the fluff post, but I thought you all would get some amusement out of this... A banner ad from Microsoft just came up as I was browsing a popular news site. (I can't do a screenshot on this machine, so I'll just have to describe it.) In the first frame, they show a gnarled thicket of illegible code next to the message, "We've...

Greetings. Do any popular browsers correctly support <q>, at least for Western languages? I've noticed that Mozilla uses the standard English double-quote character, ", regardless of the lang attribute of the HTML document. Will any browsers render German-style quotes or French-style guillemots for lang="de" and lang="fr", respectively? ...

I'd like to know if an HTML form page can be made to output to a text file on the same computer. The references that I've consulted only discuss the GET and POST actions communicating with the server, but I'd like to write to an existing file on the browser's same machine. TIA, J.

I'm trying to update my website, and I created about eight pages of html code on a Mac, using Simple Text. I viewed all...
