iGuest 3 Report post Posted February 21, 2005 You see my page here:http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/Here is a list of the things I would like which I know are all really easy to do in HTML so it will not take you long to help me.I want the "menu" to be over on the left and a little gap in between the menu and the writingand the writing should start near the top of the page not in the middleand when it gets long it should extend past the "menu" and not go on the page near the wall on the left. The last one doesn't make sense but here is an old example from last time I was askinghttp://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/and a different onehttp://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/so i think it should be easy to fix but I do not have a clue please help me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted February 22, 2005 Okay. This is going to be a long post, so you'll need to read alot. First of all, don't use the BMP file format. Even if you're using mspaint, it can still save it as a GIF or a JPG. BMPs have got to be the worst file format there is. There's also some problems with your HTML. You have two body tags. I don't know if this is intentional, but it shouldn't be there. You're missing some other tags, some of which are affecting the layout. Now on to your questions. Menu on the Left This is a result of an unclosed <p> tag. It sets everything inside it to center, which includes your table. I've fixed it in the code. Little gap You need to add a margin to your table cell. Fixed in the code... Writing at the top You just need to add a vertical-align property to your table cell. Fixed in the code... Writing extension I'm assuming you mean you don't want it to go to the left, you want it to go down. If so, you just have to add a width attribute to yourtable cell. Again, fixed in the code... And here's the code: <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> New Document </TITLE> </HEAD> <body bgcolor="#4D4D4D"> <P ALIGN="center"> <IMG SRC="bjanner.bmp" WIDTH=500 HEIGHT=100> </p> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td valign="top"> <TABLE BORDER=3 ALIGN=LEFT> <TR> <TD><IMG SRC="main.bmp" WIDTH=130 HEIGHT=35></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD><IMG SRC="movie.bmp" WIDTH=130 HEIGHT=35></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD><IMG SRC="scripts.bmp" WIDTH=130 HEIGHT=35></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD><IMG SRC="credits.bmp" WIDTH=130 HEIGHT=35></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD><IMG SRC="forum.bmp" WIDTH=130 HEIGHT=35></TD> </TR> </TABLE> </td> <td valign="top" width="200" margin="5"> <!-- both values are in pixels --> <FONT COLOR="#C7C7C7"> Welcome to the official site for the wonderful short film <b>Bjam Man vs The World</b> </FONT> </td> </tr> </table> </body></HTML> I also indented it to make it more readable.

iGuest 3 Report post Posted February 22, 2005 You are a gem. However There was teo bits that didn't work out for me. There was, on the menu, a gap between the menu and the left of the page. That is good, that is great. Can I have a gap on the right of the menu, between the menu and the words? And the other thing was the words re-aligned themselves :?: :?: weird I know, so instead of being like this: Welcome to the official site for the wonderful short film Bjam Man vs The World It was like this: Welcome to the official site for the wonderful short film Bjam Man vs The World So... do you know how to fix these two things? Also, thanks again. You are cool. Additional: There is nothing really wrong with .bmp format is there? I mean its big and fat and ancient but other than that, it really does the job doesn't it? I will change it though if you really reccomend it I was just testing making a website on my computer but I needed to upload it to check how to fix it. But anyway there is nothing really wrong with .bmp other than well it makes my website feel like it comes from the stone ages, is that correct? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
