Links Help Please :)

Recommended Posts

Okay i have links that work at my house but not at school where i am trying to edit the HTML, the site is http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/, the links arent set anywhere but it should still send me to a blank page if the link i sent it to does not exist. Could someone please check it out and see if its working on a different computer? because it works on mine at home heres the code...

I believe you have to use the http when defining links which isn't your base domain. Also are the files on your computer? because I got 404 errors.

I have reason to believe your other files are on your home computer and not on the web server. jlhaslip, what's with the issue with png and IE, i am interested :)

IE6 and earlier don't like png format. Microsoft doesn't work with them properly until IE7, but there is a javascript solution you can find on the Web. (Google it)I think MS tried to force their users to use jpg and Gif formats, but the web simply refused to bow under, so the png format is becoming more popular.

From personal experience, I find that instead of taking shortcuts when you are writing html code, use the full link. It doesn't take that long to do, and you are then positive that the link will work.Use full links for links and images.do not use -

<html><body><a href="/games.html"><img src="/games.jpg"></a></body></html>

use -

<html><body><a href="http://http://ww38.yoursite.com/games.html src="http://http://ww38.yoursite.com/games.jpg;</body></html>

Hope this helps :)
