You guys ever notice that many websites have forums that look like they're using the same software from the same company. For example, look at these 2 different sites, yet the same type of forum. http://www.fansofrealitytv.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=75 http://www.digitalweddingforum.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum;f=4 Do many...

How does one make a flat-looking button or text field? That is with no bevelled edges, maybe just a thin line on the edge? I know you can do it with Macromedia Flash but there must be other ways. I know you could use an image button but this wouldn't have any client-side behavior like hover or mouse down. I have just about every cool...

I have a site that lists my auctions on the main page. I use a JavaScript to call an iframe to display the auction item until the auction is over. Then it displays the eBay button (or nothing, if I have further auctions still active). Here's what that script looks like: var ebimagetag='<iframe name="ebay-table" frameborder=0 width=430...

I am trying to design a "multilingual" logo. I was thinking about having a background graphic with two letters (the company name's accronym) on top of it. The thing is that (of course) the accronym changes for each particular language. John Yunker in his excellent book on web globalization: "Beyond Borders", rightly critisizes the use of...

In the <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=????????"> tag, what is the best charset to use? I tend to use UTF-8, for no reason other than it sounds much cooler than iso-8859-1 etc etc... Are there any guidelines for this sort of thing? P.

Hi everone. I'm trying to write a shell script that fetches a number of images from a map website (www.whereis.com.au). Basically, the page asks you for a street address and then queries the server in a strange way, and then displays the map you asked for. It then allows you to scroll in different directions from that map. My aim is to...

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...

Hi all -- A client has hired me to, among other things, optimize her web site for search engine submission. So being the dutiful SEO geek that I am, I went through and optimized each and every page of the site, including a complete recoding of the homepage which she botched. Now after all of this work, she tells me that she wants to keep...

I'm trying to find the best way to allow web visitors to download text files (.txt, .wri & .zap file extensions). I'm having some luck. I say some because the open/save box opens with IE but not Netscape. On Netscape rather than give the user the save option it simply displays the file. I also see problems on the mac platform - no save box -...

I am trying to write a web page that includes a link to an ftp server like <a href="ftp://my.ftpserver.com/">File Transfer</a> but whenever I use this link, it fails in Internet Explorer when you click on it. If you then hit refresh on the 404 error page, it loads up just fine. Similarly, the same url works when you enter it manually into the...

See the bottom of http://www.prestonbridge.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/index2.htm (4th line of the club officers section). The mark-up's validated html 4 & css, but in ie5.0/Win2000 my surname disappears, leaving just "web author: chris (big space) <myemail.gif>". It's ok (afaik) in other browsers, and even other versions of ie. I tried a lot of...

I have a form containing a table whose cells include prompt text strings and input areas, one of which is a textarea. These are specified using only percent values, and I use some simple javascript to expand the table to the available window width. So whether the screen is maximized or partially minimized, the table fits snugly in the...

I figured since a lot of us around here design sites for "customers" a lot, I'd ask a general question that might help a lot of us in the future. When dealing with clients asking for _professional_ web sites, I am constantly trying to explain why less is more; that professional-grade web sites should focus on functionality, usability, and...
