  1. Cut and paste the javascript into the

    section of your page. Cut and paste the CSS into your CSS file and cut and paste the HTML into your html page. You will then need to change the images to the name of your images and change the text.
  2. There are plenty of free web templates that you can download from the internet - Google "get free web designs".

    Once you have the template, you still need to know a little html to insert your text in place of the "lorem ipsum" text and make your links and new pages. You also need to know how to upload the files to your hosting account.

    If you do not know how to do any of this, then you need to hire someone who does. A lot of the designers on the free template site will do this for you for a fee.

  3. I have done several sites in two or three languages and like LM I just use different html pages for each language.

     

    Whichever method you use, it is a pain as every time there is an update it has to be done in both languages regardless of whether they are on 1 page or 2. That is something you need to take into account if you are updating the site for your client so you bill them for double the work.

     

    Hopefully your client will provide you with the text in each language, not like me where they give me the English and expect me to translate to the other language as well.....

  4. OK my code looks like this using CS3:

     

     

     

    if (AC_FL_RunContent == 0) {

    alert("This page requires AC_RunActiveContent.js.");

    } else {

    AC_FL_RunContent(

    'codebase', 'http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0',

    'width', '480',

    'height', '440',

    'src', 'caldera',

    'quality', 'high',

    'pluginspage', 'http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer',

    'align', 'middle',

    'play', 'true',

    'loop', 'true',

    'scale', 'showall',

    'wmode', 'window',

    'devicefont', 'false',

    'id', 'caldera',

    'bgcolor', '#ffffff',

    'name', 'caldera',

    'menu', 'true',

    'allowFullScreen', 'false',

    'allowScriptAccess','sameDomain',

    'movie', 'caldera',

    'salign', ''

    ); //end AC code

    }

  5. Your first site is showing 38 validation errors. It should validate before people here will give you feedback. I didn't look at the second one.

    All your styling should be in an external style sheet not in the html markup and you went a little overboard with the "divs".

    Not a

    or tag in sight, just acute "divitis"

  6. I use the AC_RunActiveContent.js on all my Flash movies. The only problem I have had with it is if the path to the .js file was incorrect or that I forget to upload it? Silly things happen sometimes...

    You can generate all the code from Flash including the .js file, the player skin, the html file, the swf.

  7. You don't need a lot of fancy software, you do need to know how to code CSS and HTML and you don't even need Dreamweaver for that. As for sending forms through email, try Googling "formtoemail". Most general questions like yours can be answered through a Google search.

  8. If you have Flash it is very easy to convert your videos to Flash with the Flash Video Converter. Once you have the FLV you import it into Flash and choose the skin you want from their selection. If you need further help with this let me know I can send you details.

     

    If you don't have Flash, try this

  9. You are quite right, the contents of the php include do not appear in the code, that is not necessarily important for the search engine because it can also follow links and still see the code.

    The main reason for using php includes is so that when your site has over 100 pages you only have to modify one file and not go into each page individually and modify the information, thus saving you and your client time and money.

  10. As Thelma said Java and Javascript are two different things. In your first post you said

    "When you view it, remember to have Java DISABLED and reload the page."

    That is exactly what I did.... and could not see your problem, however with Javascript disabled I can see it, big difference.

     

    With or without Javascript enabled, if you go to http://createstudios09.netne.net/wordpress/#youth, your page is still cut off at the top, so I would presume that your issue is within the css. Adding padding-top: 100px; to your header div pushes the page down.

  11. When you set up your tables in DW if you do not enter a value for cell padding and cell spacing, DW automatically uses its default values.

    Ideally you should only be using tables to display tabular data. You should be learning CSS for page layout.

  12. On a Mac I can see the wssHome.css in English, but the cssGlobal.css shows this....

     

     

    Oh, you must have done something to it as now it is rendering the page correctly on both the Mac and PC, and the wssGlobal.css is now css not html...

  13. When you save your image for the web in Photoshop using a transparent background (png or gif), you have an option called "matte". Use the colour of your background in the "matte" it will make the jagged edges around your image the same colour as your background while leaving the rest of your background transparent.

     

    As to your second conclusion, there is no need to use a tiling background image just use a plain colour in your background css. Your problem comes from not having added a matte to your image.

     

    Just a comment, your site looks a little unbalanced with the long skinny quotation down the side.

  14. If you look at the CSS you will see widths, you need to change some of these to the width you need so that it doesn't hide whatever you have on the right hand side. Just experiment, play around with the CSS and you will immediately see which piece of code makes the change.

    That is how you learn, using good coding and experimenting by trial and error so that you begin to understand how it works.

    Good Luck

  15. I had the same issue with a Flash movie with an z-index of 100 that covered a drop down menu. Apparently in IE all Active content on a page will always rise to the top, so to speak, including Flash, certain form elements, Java applets, and Active X controls. This means that each of these will poke through layers, and ignore the z-index of other elements.

     

    I found a solution for my Flash problem, I suggest you Google javascript issues with drop down menus. Failing that, use Flash for your slideshow and use this work around
