I finally found the problem! It turns out IE needs the value 'px' for height and width. It can't figure out 'auto' or '%', like Safari, Chrome and Firefox can..Now I hope it works on larger screens.

IE doesn't play nice with .png images..

>>17010 I removed the header info in the css but the problem remains :(

24/05/12(Thu)08:34

Looks like the css and html are clashing in the header, both are specifying the logo image. You only need to specify image location and details in css OR html, not both. I suspect that is why you are getting different results in different browsers.

>>17006 it is F12. thx 4 that!

Happy, yes. End? no!
Make 2 logos; 1 that's a recreation of the old logo and one you mildly think it's okay ;)

I can always change it, so no rush hob.
And thx again!!

>>16995 inside of DW, you should be able to view the pages in IE or FF.. I think it's F12?? probably wrong though..

About the header.. I can recreate what you have, but in terms of original thoughts.. my original thoughts are mostly reserved for stories with sad endings. :( we want ponos to have a happy ending!!

another weird thing is that when I tried to open my html in IE8 (Open with..) it asked me to 'open or save' ??
Neither worked 'open' makes firefox appear and save just saves the html..but still opens to firefox. God I hate IE!

>>16989 yeah!! we want the css too!

now.. grimmy... about this header.....

23/05/12(Wed)21:05

>>16987 Can you copy and paste any css from the css file relating to the header so we can see that too.

no, not yet. but I can show you the source code ;)

23/05/12(Wed)18:08

do you have a test site online for us to look at, see your source code?

23/05/12(Wed)16:36

>>16964 Search Google with the specific code you are using for that and see what suggestions are made to fix it. IE can be a pain in the arse and occasionally needs specific code.

23/05/12(Wed)13:16

Website is as good as done. I noticed that IE doesn't show the header picture (nor png or jpg) however chrome and firefox have no problem.

jesuschrist and ftcyp both have good answers..

>>16901 Well, JC is right. If you don't want to get into PHP, you can either copy the header and sidebar to every page, or use iframe. Those are the only options I know, that HTML supports. Sorry.

21/05/12(Mon)11:15

>>16901 Firstly you've spelt PORNOS wrong! ;P
As for the text and links bit I'm not sure of the best approach to such things these days. In days of old frames would have been the way forward. Hopefully FtCYP or V45 will let us know the modern way...

So you're saying to copy/paste it in the css?

18/05/12(Fri)14:16

css (cascading style sheet), is for styling your html. If you want the list (ul - unordered list) to look nice, you should have some style assosiated with it in the css file.

If you're using Firefox, you can download an addon called Firebug, to help you look at other site's css and html. Chrome has that built-in.
Either way, once you have the addon or if you're using chrome, right click on the element you want to check out and pick "Inspect Element".

If you're working with Internet Explorer 9 you'll have a similar tool by pressing f12 on your keyboard. But just so you'll know, IE is shit and you should not build sites in it or for it.

CSS file

Hey guys!
So I started fiddling with dreamweaver. Now I have several containers and I want to add several h-links under 'HOME', just like wiki has.
I know I have to use <ul> and <li /li> but do I also change something in the css file?

My dad wants to start his own business and asked me to build him a website. I told him I'd look into it but truth be told I'm in way over my head.

10/05/12(Thu)20:43

I also use dreamweaver for everything and feel naked without it.

Coding is complicated at first, but practice makes perfect.

I agree about the tables.. I still use them on the rarest of occasions when I haven't the time to fuck around with div containers..

what are you building, grim?

10/05/12(Thu)18:49

Thx guys! Will check it out!

10/05/12(Thu)18:08

Use a WYSIWYG HTML Editor such as http://kompozer.net/.
You will still need to have some understanding of style sheets. You can start here maybe http://www.webreference.com/authoring/style/sheets/layout/easy/index.html

10/05/12(Thu)18:01

oh, and if you have a chance, download Adobe's Dreamweaver. It helped me a ton when I started out. It fills the text for you, and you can build entire sites with drag-and-drop interface.

10/05/12(Thu)17:59

>>16729
If it seems complicated, that's probably my fault. html and css are very simple once you get it. It's like using photoshop, but with command line instead of a mouse (if that makes any sense)

10/05/12(Thu)14:35

>>16728 I don't get it..seems so freakin complicated..I think I'll just steal some coding.
Thx anyway.

First of all, stop using tables. If you're not using php, there's no need to use this archaic form of building.

Try making a container for the text you want to move to the side of the gray box. like this:

<div id="blahblahContainer">Blah blah blah blah... </div>

After making that, add a stylesheet to the file and do this:
#blahblahContainer {
float:left;
}

If you don't know haw to add a stylesheet, add style excerpt between the head tags of your html file, like this:
<style>
#blahblahContainer {
float:left;
}
</style>

What this does is magnetise the Blahblah container to the left.

Do the same to the gray box and you should hav to boxes next to eachother, one with gray background and one without a background
