    hello…

    not sure which table you’re referring to in that example – you might want to try our dreamweaver forum as well for specifics on how to make things in dreamweaver…

    hello…

    there is no simple answer to this question, unfortunately – there are about a million providers out there, many of whom offer cheap hosting fees, so it’s impossible to list anything but personal preferences… :-/

    that said, i like webintellects, although search this forum and its archives for other people’s suggestions…

  • hello…

    [Chris Huggett] “SInce i wrote my first post, i also noticed in my html page which holds all the text for my flash site, that it too has some PHP code, with text that calls the recipient (&recipient=youremail@youremail.com)

    Would this be the place to put my email address?”

    could be – it’s hard for me to say without seeing everything, but this is a rather simple one to test, ya? go through all the code and just try putting your email where you think it might need to go – then go try the script…if you get the email, then it’s all good. there’s no harm in playing around a bit…

    hello…

    yes – unless you pick to format your drive, in which case you’d naturally have to back up everything somewhere and then put it back on the new box. but if you just do their built-in upgrade option, everything will be where you left it when you’re done…

    (but it’s always a good idea to back stuff up first to be safe)

    hello…

    for tutorials on css, it’s best to just hit up google – i could write up a full explanation of the div tag here, but i’d just be doing what a ton of other sites already have… :-/

    a div tag by itself is relatively useless. think of a div tag as a place to make use of css. things you can do with css are (on a high level):

    – placement of items (including margin and padding)
    – style of items (font type, font weight, etc.)
    – colors (background, foreground, images)

    that’s very high level but it gives you an idea. what bret was saying (at least what i got he was saying) is that with css, you might be able to replace some of your slices with css-controlled text content, which will load much faster. in that case, you would need to pick up some css knowledge.

    so for both that and a general understanding of css, you can either try that link bret gave or this one is pretty good too:

    hello…

    applets only crash when they aren’t written so well – there are a ton of vr tour applets that you could use…we just had a post about the ptviewer applet – that might do the trick for you…

    hello…

    if you’re just doing image slices, then css won’t be of much use to you maybe outside of positioning. css is used to change styles (bold, italic, etc.) and position elements (absolute or relative to each other)…the div tag is just a tag that contains content that you might want to apply styles to – same with span…

    but if you’re just doing tabled photoshop elements, then i wouldn’t think you’d have a lot of use for it for those types of designs. a perfect example of where css comes in handy would either be a text header or body copy for your site – you can assign styles to those and then you can just wrap the content in a div or span or table or whatever and give that element your style class and then it is good to go with your desired layout style.

    make sense?

    May 20, 2005 at 7:09 pm in reply to: Include File Rollover Problem

    hello…

    looks like your index page has the call to the preload image function in the body tag (as it should):

    <body onload=”preloadImages();”>

    which then triggers the preloadFlag boolean flag to true after it’s done…but on the other pages, it’s just a plain body tag:

    <BODY>

    and so then the preloadFlag never gets triggered and the image rollover won’t happen because it relies on that being set to true…
