Website Acting Up On Me What Am I Doing Wrong?

Recommended Posts

Okay, so I was working on my site and I noticed that I can drag and drop my frmaes. I don't understand why I can because I didn't add that script anywhere in my html. If you would like to see what I'm talking about please visit here. Right click the webpage and click view source. If you would like to test the drag and drop yourself clcik on the graphic or the marquee and drag it. It's not suppose to move though, even though it does. Please somebody try and help me. I would try with CSS but I'm not good with CSS at all, I only know HTML so . . .

When looking at your site I could only see your graphic, when trying to "drag" it I got the graphic only (where you have it hosted, the photobucket site)... (site background is black and so is your font)

When highlighting the page, I saw different frames, one of which is obviously the menu, but instead of seeing the menu, I basically only have the text of the URL of the menu script (http://simplythebest.net/scripts/DHTML_scripts/dhtml_script_100.html) ....

So my guess is your code is totally messed up... how did you make your pages, what program? (if you want you can send me the code in an email at moonwitch[at]skynet[dot]be) ok?

I'll try to look at your code from in FF :D per frame.

CSS, is not too hard. It's your friend really.

eg.



/*CSS Style Doc*/body {background-color : black;}p {color : white;}

(I am not sure about p color LOL, but this *should* get your bg black and font white)

EDIT!!

I looked at header.html which is part of a frameset already.

<html><head>
<title>~*~Wykked Dreamz~*~</title>
<frameset rows="100,*" border=0 frameborder=0 framespacing=0>
<frame src="http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/; name="title" scrolling=no>
<frame src="http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/; name="newsflash" scrolling=no>
</frameset>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

OK You've made a frameset within a frame and all that. Don't do that, it messes up more than you can fix... Believe me, plus it increases the change that your site will be looking odd in other resolutions.
There's no need to have a frameset in a frame ;) Just try this (also in your original code of title.html you had 2 <body> tags.. I also highly recommend to not use the marquee, it's hard on the eyes. So try this as header.html frame :P (you can also upload this graphic to your Xisto account :D
<html><head><title>~*~Wykked Dreamz~*~</title></head>
<body bgcolor="black">
<center>
<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/wykked_dreamz/January/WebPageHeader.gif"><br>
<font color="maroon">
<marquee behavior=scroll direction="left" scrollamount="4">Welcome to the guild! The website is now open and I hope that it meets your expectations. Be sure to check out everything, we've worked hard to make this website what it is.</marquee>
</center>
</body>
</html>

Next part :Dhttp://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
This is your code
<html>
<head>
<title>~*~Wykked Dreamz~*~</title>
</head>
<body>
<body bgcolor="black">
<b>http://simplythebest.net/scripts/DHTML_scripts/dhtml_script_100.html</b>
</body>
</html>

What you did, was simple making simply.script appear on your page as TEXT. So you don't have a menu. You need to follow directions on the page http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/. I am not a fan of this method since it actually just slows down your page. But let's not overcomplicate this.

Next Act : main.html
<html><head>
<title>~*~Wykked Dreamz~*~</title>
</head>
<body>
<body bgcolor="black">
<b>Welcome</b>
</body>
</html>

Again you have <body> in there twice. Your font is also black, thus making it invisible. The correct syntax of the page you want is
<html><head><title> Wykked Dreamz</title></head>
<body bgcolor="black">
<font color="maroon"><b>welcome</b></font>
</body>
</html>

Now of course this is making it hard on yourself. Here's where CSS would greatly help you.

Just read up on this one :Dhttp://www.yourhtmlsource.com/stylesheets/

Okay, wow, so . . . basically I need to go back to the basics. See, its been about 3 or 4 years since I have coded any webpages and since then a lot has "evolved." Dang it, another summer dedicated to learning a script that will not be used 2 years from now. Grr . . . why does the internet have to change! (it must hate me) I know, I gotta keep up. I'll try, let me see if I can fix it . . . I don't know how long I'll have control of the computer so we'll see

@ElFoReal: Next time make your own topic :D, to solve your problem, once you have the template done you need to slice it with Imageready or photoshop. After its sliced go to save for web and save it in a place you can find it in. there will be a .html file where you saved it as well as a folder called "Images" get CuteFTP and then use that to access your ftp account, i think the address is ftp.yoursitename.astahost.com or yoursitename.astahost.com/ftp i forgot which, but you can check that out easy where the info section is. Access it, the password and username is the same as your cPanel now upload the images upto the ftp as well as the .html file (save it as index.html) and voila you have your homepage


ON TOPIC:
I went to the site, i see nothing except a red banner, when I do the "Dragging" it just gets me to the site your image is hosted at o.O so i'm not sure if there is a problem.. then again you might have fixed it

OKay, so, I understand that you just merged my header into one page. But about the menu thing, I was orginally going to use that code but I wanted one without images and was having problems finding one. So I pasted the url in that frame in case I ever wanted to come back to it. As for the main page, that was just there. Overall, I was just trying to get my frames to work. I don't know if its just my computer, but I can still drag and drop the frams on my computer. I really can't understand why. I tried it on my friend's computer and hers didn't do it either. So, maybe its just mine. I'd like to thank you all for the help, and I might completely convert my site to css. So prepare to see me again, because if I get confused I'm one to ask a lot of questions.
