  1. Well, since I want to help you... I'm going to boot into XP... don't worry about inviting me though, I'll just come back with the solution. Hold on just a bit while I reboot... Cheers, MC
  2. I'm just wondering why you're not using the width attribute in that element which isn't deprecated, it will be when XForms takes over HTML Forms though.What your problem really seems to be though is the lack of standard support, although, using input { width: 400px; } will affect most input elements, where as input[type=text] would be more suited to what you want but the lack of support is the downfall.The textarea solution seems alright, is it avoiding newline characters? Would it require javascript to take the event of the keypress if it's allowed to submit the default form button?Cheers,MC
  3. Hey PureHeart, XP does have it. It's turned off by default. Get into the Folder Options, Now, I'm trying to think what you may need to enable, but that's not coming back to me, Simple Sharing maybe the option, to take off, but go through it and see if you can find anything that may or may not apply. I think it is Simple Sharing, uncheck that and then try again. If you're on XP Home, I'm not sure whether it's similar or not, it should be but I've never used this OS. Cheers, MC
  4. There are some who can't be bothered learning and have good reasons too, which is why they are willing to pay you for your services. There are others who want to learn, but expect everything handed to them (depending on my mood, depends on whether I'm bothered to help those). There are those who actually have learnt something, but find themselves in a little trouble with getting something working (those people have at least tried). If I learn something new from someone wanting help, then obviously that was worth my effort in helping them. Knowledge is power! It's like a joke I heard about Flying, if you have to rely on a Flight Attendant to explain how to put a seatbelt on, is your life worth saving, harsh I know, but even simple things like this can bring up these questions. To answer those questions though, incase there are some... hopefully none here If your heading is done this way: <h1>This is a heading!</h1> There's multiple ways of doing it, We could do inline element styling. <h1 style="text-align: center;">This is a heading!</h1> We could use inline CSS styling with an 'id' attribute, a 'class' attribute or use the 'element' name. <head> <style> h1 { text-align: center; } h1#heading { text-align: center; } h1.center { text-align: center; } #heading { text-align: center; } .center { text-align: center;} </style> </head> <body> <h1 id="heading" class="center">This is a heading!</h1> </body> There's also the external CSS file we could use... but need I say anymore? Already I'm not up to explaining all of this, I rather explain something complex than something basic, which is why I try making even the easiest things harder than what it needs to be, just so I can offer more advice on the subject. I could have gone on about deprecated elements, but I rather you learn the now, than the past. For the images and the blue box: <style> img { border: none; } </style> To give you a definition of a link, why not use the power of google and ask the question... "What is a link?" You might need to define it better using "What is a hyperlink?" And you'll have many definitions that will hopefully enlighten you about this. Learning HTML is easy, learning standards is a curve ball, but you should learn it and you will discover more about HTML than the basics and could comfortably call yourself a web designer if you grasp this. Cheers, MC
  5. This is where XP users screwed up, since when should an Administrator be denied, I've been denied access as Admin to even a normal user... Anyways, you want to claim that directory, so as an Admin, go to C:\Documents and Settings\Right-click on the folder, choose Properties, now there might appear a security tab??? Sorry I'm Linux orientated now so I can't quite remember what it is, basically you just add or replace your User over theirs, it'll ask if you want to apply it to sub-directories and you say yes, then you should be able to remove it. You may need to do this with other folders inside of that directory.Hopefully that is just the case, also why did you reinstall over the top? That's the only reason those other ones will still exist?P.S. Just had a flash-back, I recall something about Inheritance, that's what you want to do, is inherit it.Cheers,MC
  6. Khymnon is right and I have 2Mb DSL and that site was insanely slow to load. Definitely not good, I wouldn't even wait round for this site unfortunately, sorry ebbinger. Not only that, the operation timed out, maybe you're using up too much bandwidth for other things to allow people onto your site. Now you can see why Xisto is somewhat better than hosting it yourself. You'll also need to check with your ISP's TOS to see whether you're actually allowed to host your own sites, a lot of ISP's do not allow such things, and would hate to see you violating this. Cheers, MC
  7. Another good program, which is also free software (LGPL) is 7-Zip from http://www.7-zip.org/ I would highly recommend that over WinZip. Cheers, MC
  8. i need some emails. im feeling lonely. im such a lonely. im sick. and i was wondering if you people could email me. that would be so sweet.i dont really care what you say. bolobow87@gmail.com thanks
  9. Nice to meet you all.
  10. Yes, the correct type or more correctly mime-type is image/x-icon and that link line is indeed correct. I would question the URI used though, "/images/favicon.ico" or "images/favicon.ico", I would not usually do the former way, and opt for the second method. Otherwise I would use a full URL reference. Now IE has been known to disregard the type and do what is known as mime-type detection on anything it encounters, usually it does it correctly, but when you use text/plain to display plain text of HTML elements etc, it incorrectly identifies the document as text/html even if you specified the document as text/plain, so it will render your document as HTML. I'm not sure whether they fixed this in IE7 but I think they still rely on their mime-type detection, which you can turn off in IE6 if you want to, part of their content security. Cheers, MC
  11. I should really finish this tutorial off, I forgot all about it. (irony is, it's been exactly a year!) Well, hopefully I'll get something done within the few weeks to complete this, I might even make alterations to it slightly to fix errors I noticed and to make the explanations even more clear. The reason I never placed it in the tutorials section was mainly because it was work in progress, I can't really sit here for hours on end writing the tutorial till completed, so I had to build it up in parts. It was ok to move to the tutorial section though, it was bound to end up there anyways. Cheers, MC
  12. good but what if someone cannot find anything interesting to reply or to post about??? and mean like that this forums are mostly general not only about gaming, about programing or graffiti... and if someone want really to talk about gaming he will go to a forum really spesialized in gaming or the the forum of his server... and the same thing are about graffiti and programming...so from my point of view the most posts in this forum are stealthed SPAM and very generalized... almost everyone talk about what ever come to their mind, not caring about weather they really wan to post about it or not...sr
  13. i just walt to make gamesi know some basic programming and i do the grafics myself but i still cant find a reliable machine to make my games...i mean like i have tried different progs like DarkBasic,Macromedia flash,c++but with none of them i dont th power i want...i only once found a good prog BlitzBasic3d but i cant fnd a cracked version and the demo version has a code limiter...so if there are any1 who can help me or suggest something plz pm me...
  14. does anyone know how can i play wow without paying???even though its not ff but still its a very good rpg not like l2if anyone know how to avoid paying and play wow plz pm me...
  15. Yes, I have seen similar coding using a two picture image for each button.I have not seen it done this way with the 8 part image, though. Interesting approach. Good job on the tutorial.
  16. The first two and the last one with the green eye is very amazing. I'd say that the chrome effects on the first ones were very well done. Especially that one with all the wedges on the sides, the one that looks like a car rim. That's very artistic in my opinion. Like what the other guys here are asserting, you should release a tutorial on how to do this on photoshop or whatever. Some great stuff.Also, that green eye is very nice. It looks like something a professional would do, and that's saying a lot in my book >_< The bubble one is like, 'weird-cool' cause it has like a chrome-metallic feeling to it, and soft bubble we've all known. I don't understand how something like that is possible, but you did it haha. Keep up the great work.
  17. By what I can see, you have quite a talent for design. Nice stuff.
  18. So then the correct link tag would be as follows: <link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/images/favicon.ico" /> if I have followed the posts correctly?
  19. what is Firefox? A friend was telling me about it and I'm just trying to get a little more educated.
  20. I'm wondering what the possibilities of the Playstation 3 can do once it comes out. It's rumored to be running on a linux based system, so shouldn't that allow for all sorts of things to happen and be enabled? I'm wondering if somehow the console can be used as like a normal computer, with something like Lindows or something of the sort running on it. If that's possible then plugging in something like a USB keyboard and mouse should make this one heck of a system. I'm already able to connect this computer to my widescreen TV, with the power of the PS3, I'll own >_<
  21. Not trying to spam.But I just reread my post and realized I sound cocky. I'm really not, just trying to tell people what my skills and experience are. I suppose theres no edit button here?
  22. Do not attempt to own, pwn, or adminster any type of ownage on me. I've been on forums for a good 5 or 6 years. It started off on gaming forums, where I was part of a few differnt guilds for Star Wars Galaxies, City of Heroes, World of Warcraft, and for a brief period planet side. Unless your reading comprehension is that of a pencil, you probably guessed that I was/am a pretty serious gamer. This is true, but recently I've been more of a casual gamer because of work/school, and I entertain myself in otherways too. Oh and if you hear rumors from car forums that i'm a troll...they're true. So if anyone has any questions on gaming, girls, cars, football, technology, I'd be glad to help after I make fun of you for not knowing it.
