  1. What albus is looking for is 100% in some of it the rest is in pixels like so <table> <tr> <td> </td> </tr> </table> <table> <tr> <td width="100%"> </td> </tr> </table> <table> <tr width="100%"> <td> </td> </tr> </table> <table width="750px" height="1000px"> <tr> <td> </td> </tr> </table> <table> <tr> <td> </td> </tr> </table> But the set up your trying to do is similar to this tutorial http://www.zymic.com/tutorials/photoshop/total-layout-tutorial/, Although you don't need photoshop to do this the concept is just the same. Best way I learn is look at other websites and look at the code, I don't do direct copies of it but I take patches here and there. Now to help boost your css skills I recommend this site http://www.alvit.de/handbook/ for it is loaded with hundreds of css sites of different aspects. Also if you want to get down and dirty and slowly learn how to to build wewbsites http://www.oswd.org/ go here and check out all the templates they have. Who knows you could patch different templates and get a killer design. I don't put to much effort in books (to much reading and remembering) but most people seem to learn quicker with it, how I don't know but they do. Also the next question you want to answer is do you want your site to be fluid (meaning all resolutions and browsers accept it) or fixed (absolute positions). Although most people want to go with the fluid design, it takes time and a lot of coffee, because fluid design is the most difficult to work with. Due to the fact that you have to code it to at least 3 browsers (IE,FF, Opera) and about 6 resolutions (800x600, 1024X768, 1280x1024m 1600x1200) with some of those resolutions are gear towards wide screen computers. With Fix design, it takes sometimes but with this though you have to have at least 3 different css scripts running 1 for each browser. Due to the fact that each browser slightly changes the look of the website. All it takes is time and patience to code a website properly but to do it well you have to remember a lot of coding, something I am not gifted at. But of course if you bookmark a few million sites that help you learn that go ahead and do it. OR if you want to take a template and gut it out and recode from there, not a problem with that either. This is just some in sight fro ma person who been doing it on and off going on 10 years now. Hopefully some of the info I have provided helps you out a bit.
  2. Well it's over I lost the bet on 6 games, since it was Finished in 5 and least this team didn't have to cheat to win.
  3. It's finally over after many months of finding out if the yankees would win another one, the Cardinals when their first world series in 20 years. If the Tigers did cheat it would have been even better but it's to late for that.So congrats to the World Series Champions and See y'all Next YearWOOHOO THE YANKEES LOSE AGAIN!!! :(Now we got hockey football and basket ball for the rest of the year.

So what does CSS viewer simple, you get to see what that css code looks like for that website. The benefits of this well you get a better understanding how CSS design works and how to effectively use it. Downside is that people can copy it down and then modify it to there news thus saving the hard work of doing it by scratch.

  7. @NDPA awesome fine this practically makes a web designers dream complete although I had to Google it since the main site wasn't showing it up but here is the link for it for those who want it. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ @yacoby reason is Fx is the First Letter "F" and the last letter "x" is being used thats why
  8. It took a few minutes but I found your answer odo http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ http://apache2triad.net/forums/archive/o_tn-slimftpd.html http://www.mcafee.com/threat-intelligence/malware/default.aspx?id=119409 http://www.mcafee.com/threat-intelligence/malware/default.aspx?id=100451 From these links basically slimftp is a program that is Trojan loaded so that is why mcafree is deleting it because of the vunerability this ftp has. So I did some more research and suggest that you try this out. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ It should be a effective replacement for slimftp. But if that doesn't work google the following string +apache +ftp and see what could be used to get you going.
  9. They also seem to know the scripts as well, or they can get to the directory somehow. The site is German but they seems to use a Turkish IP as once of it's back ups IP's.
  10. The remake is not going to happen not matter who says square enix change there minds about it.Well there is Metal Gear Solid 4 which should be interesting game to play this x mas i think.
  11. My best guess would be their send that little update program with in the following weeks. Of course Since their was a beta version out I think they only got the update and the 1.5 users didn't.
  12. Stupid question, might have missed it somewhere after reading that last line But what is this PEEC all about?Next Question I have would are your referring to this forum about what you just mentioned?
  13. This isn't even real news moving this to the joke section. And what NDPA pretty much summed it up.
  14. Highly doubt it. but all it takes is one person to find a unlimited power resource of energy and a cheap and effective way to construct space ships. Then maybe. But for that price Only the Forbes 400 (who are all billionaires) can afford that price tag. The closes way we can get to outer space would be a zero gravity machine or taking a plane that borderlines our atmosphere.
  15. I'm want to say no but I have no clue nor have I seen it in the cpanel or anywhere else in the hosting accounts. But in case you do have to install it only software that I have found, there could be others. http://adodblite.sourceforge.net/howtoinstall.php
  16. Well worse case scenario, you re-install the os and go from there, but I doubt you want to do that. Well uninstall IE is possible it does turn your computer to junk, can't receive patches and what not. I wouldn't worry to much about IE7 besides the obvious, but I would download it just to be up to date for security reasons and some other junk. Most people don't like the way the nav bars are set up, but thats them. So download it and that should fix your problem.
  17. @Amezis fx that is so lame, Although I wonder if they are not trying to be confused with Final Fantasy or Fear Factor. Foxfire ahahaha Shippo from Inuyasha. But I know What I said (FF is what I am going with) :(Hmm I swear that when I opening it up on the other computer (Desktop) I saw fasterfox running, I have to check again. I know the adblock plus still works and some others as well that I didn't have downloaded on this computer.
  18. Oh I know that I just don't feel like typing a few million html codes, yes I am that lazy. Although I might have missed it somewhere But I didn't see a phishing plug-in or add-on is there one around for FF at all?
  19. I find that funny that you got banned I file front, because I use it to host image files. Are you sure you didn't get banned for having illegal files uploaded to it?
  20. Welcome to the site and enjoy your stay here make sure to read the forum rules and what not to get a good idea what we are expecting from our members.
  21. go to a grocery store and buy 1 potato. Next make a huge successful website and plaster adsense ads all over the place and there you go.
  22. I highly doubt auto correct would be insufficient, because how would the browser determine which dictionary to use. Then of course their is the many different languages as well. Well this could be useful when searching stuff up and junk.
  23. it's not bad but drop the scan lines, it takes away from the professional look it is giving.
  24. I noticed that as well but I think give it a few days and that would pop up but anyways the Following tools I recommend for web designers for FireFox 2 that actually work.ColorzillaCss ViewerHTML ValidatorMeasureItTalkbackView Source ChartWeb DeveloperX-rayAlready I find the spell checker a bit annoying to say the least that common words we use in the design world are errors. But now this should help post become a bit cleaner as well.
  25. First time I heard about googleplex was the 6th grade, but now they thought of a new one.That is just insane and the grahams number link that just make my skull want to explode. I don't think even stephen Hawking could do anything with that, without spending a few years with it.
