Speaking of nobody "gives a crap", IE works just fine on my computer, thank you. -
I just copied some code and put it on the web site and we have a counter now, but I had to erase a hyperlink (Link to Buy) which was showing up beneath the counter itself.
I just hope the people who view our site aren't going to be antagonized by the website from which I copied the free counter code.Leave a comment:

counter
I built a web site for my father using html and he has repeatedly asked my for a counter so that he will know how many people have visited his site.

Does anyone have any idea where I can get the code for a counter? or if I can even put in a counter considering I am doing the site strictly with html? -
That's a huge help to me, Ronald. Thanks a lot. I have two questions about it.
1. Any web source for info on this? The two html books I have do not address this. I have also tried "html drop shadow" in IE and did not come up with anything (I just ask because I am not yet up to speed on some of the coding used to do this).
2. I noticed that during the process of trying to mold some of this code to my own...Leave a comment:

drop shadow
Does anyone know whether or not it is possible to add a drop shadow to a graphic using hml? -
cryptic html validator
I ran my html through a validator and here is one of the errors. Unfortunately I have no idea what it means. Does anyone have any ideas? In bold is what I had typed.
Error Line 1 column 60: invalid formal public identifier "-//W3C/DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN": no SPACE after public text class.

Just right click on your desktop and select create a new folder. Then drag both files into the folder and see if this solves the problem. It sound to me like you are hyperlinking to a file you created on your computer as opposed to an established site on the web. You need to establish a relative path.Leave a comment:

Try creating a folder and storing both the main site and the hyperlinked file in that same folder. Image sources and links must be in the same folder as the primary web site for them to work:Leave a comment:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"

I don't know if it will help but you could put the above info in as I didn't see it under sources.Leave a comment:

I actually bought a voice recording machine yesterday, and the process is easier than I thought. You don't need anything but a USB connector which transfers the voice files from the recorder to the computer. From there you can upload,zip, whatever.Leave a comment:

[ Hmm, seems like a lot of extra work (doing the transcribing).
If you had ever transcribed for doctors, you would know that voice recognition is a long ways away for this particular field. Their transcription is analagous to their chicken-scratch writing.Leave a comment:

The buttons are contained in a square of white background.Leave a comment:

audio files
Does anyone understand how dictaphones used by doctors ultimately become voice files for transcriptionis ts? I am trying to determine the feasability/practicality of this in case I want to do it freelance or start my own company.
The company I work for uses software by a company called Execuscribe which coverts zipped files to audio. I use a foot pedal to transcribe the files in a word processor, zip the file and send it to the company... -
link buttons
I figured out how to do rollovers with javascript today: Original button color --> roll the mouse over it --> different color. The problem is that the graphical buttons come within a rectangle of white space. This contrasts horribly with my khaki background. Any ideas on ways to fix this?
Also most of the free-button websites I have seen have really "fancy" buttons and I just want simple ones to work with. Any... -
I'll try it out tonight to get an idea. I do understand the concept. Thanks also to Aric and yourself for the color information as well as to Dr Howard. The next user document I design for my tech writing class is going to have a much more interesting layout than the last.
Also I read a bit about ASP. What is it about ASP that you attracts you to it? (ATTN Moderators. Am I allowed to ask this question in an html forum?)...Leave a comment:

I am embarrassed to say I was working with 255,255,255 (white), which explains why the background would not change. Thanks for noticing that - a huge help.
I read one of your articles and ran my code through the validater you linked. I am not sure I understood the mistakes exactly, but I will figure them out.Leave a comment:

Here is the code I put on notepad, but I still get a blank screen. Perhaps you can see where my error lies.

as to - example of what? I was referring to jhardman from the previous post.Leave a comment:

What language is this, jhardman?
myVar = request.form("c ategory")
Didn't take you very long to leave me in the dust.Leave a comment:

Could you provide the code for a simplified example? I usually copy the code and run it on notepad to get a feel the advice I get on this forum.
Do you have any idea how to get a wider array of background colors with html? I seem to be stuck with yellow, blue, red, purple, etc. For some reason my computer will recognize names of colors and ff0000 styles for colors. But not 256,256,256 styles of colors. Any idea why the latter is...Leave a comment:

What would you consider to be the next logical step following HTML/CSS as to learning how to build webpages? Probably the luckiest thing I have had happen to me was not being able to afford Dreamweaver because it has forced me to learn html. I want to continue avoiding html editors, etc. I just want to work in Notepad and to learn structure, vocabulary and rules. So, what would I want to think about incorporating next - javascript maybe?Leave a comment:
