Copying design template from a web page

freddieMaize

Hi, my first day in designing. Since I’m not a very good designer I tried copying a template from the net. Below is my problem.

I saved the below web page,
http://osc3.template-help.com/cre_20885/

It got saved as an html page and a folder with images (which is usual). I then changed the image folder as ‘images’ from ‘CRE Loaded 6 - CRE Loaded Store_files’ and also changed the path in the <img> tag’s ‘scr’ accordingly. Also I changed the path of the css files and removed the <base link> tag.

The purpose of doing so is to get that web page’s template. Now when I viewed my html page (the one which I manipulated) it is not similar to that of the original page. Can anyone help me in finding out what exactly I’m missing?? I’m not getting the background theme also.

Could you post a link to your page with all of the changes you made to compare to the template you posted?

Did you change the links for the javscript and css files?

FOA, Thanks for the response.

@lgiuliari
Right now i'm doing it in my local system and there is no url. So im sorry.. Unable to show you my work.

@drhowarddrfine
I could see the below links/code in the css files,

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(images/button_blank_left.gif)
this gif image is not present in my 'images' folder. I tried to download this image but was unable to find the correct link. Hope im not confusing you guys.

Also, (from the view source) they have used a external javascript file called 'rollover.js' but i'm unable to download that file. I think, only after downloading that file we can see if there are any links over there.

If you copied the page from example.com, and the js is in /rollover.js, then you can view the js at example.com/rollover.js

Yup.. I tired.. getting 404... One clarification,
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.  
  2.  BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(images/button_blank_left.gif) 
  3.  
Does the above call the javascript method?? I mean, from css file can we call a javascript function??

No. That accesses the image at example.com/images/button_blank_le ft.gif.

Which means, in this case it will be
http://osc3.template-help.com/images...blank_left.gif right?

But its 404 :(. Not only this, all the images from the css results in 404. Is there anyway the admin of the site (or someone else) can disguise them as 404 but still have the images some where and show them in the page?

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
