I am not sure but I think this is what you are asking is how to combine more then one selector in your css.
p #img {
css here
}
Do not forget the space between the selectors it is important.
This will however make every paragraph with an image do the same thing.
Again I am not sure what you are asking.

Sorry guys I just wanted to add a quick note. What I did for my skype problem is just shut skype off then turned on wamp then turned skype back on. That way every thing is the same when I work through php tutorials. Again sorry for the interruption in your conversation.

Thanks Andrea, I thought of that about 30 min after I made this post. I guess I gave up to early. Yes you are right there is a lot of work to be done in the code. This was my first site I did it for class using Dream Weaver before I new anything about coding. The instructor was not very good, all he did was give us the book from adobe for Dream Weaver and worked through the chapters by myself. Most of the time he was not even in the class room. I left this site alone just because it all works. I am going back now and fixing it all. More external style sheets and such, and yes I was kinda of embarrassed to let someone look at the code.
Have a good day and thank you again

I just updated a site and thought I would cross browser check. Everything works fine in firefox, my conditional comment works in IE. Here's my problem in Chrome, Safari and Opera the left side bar border does not line up on top. Is there some kind of conditional comment like there is for IE. I have never ran across this problem before. The site is one I did for free for my cousin. The url is http:// www. roxanesmarine.com I tried experimenting and wrote a conditional comment like IE's but that did not work.

Try this for the little blue problem.
* { margin 0px;
padding 0px;
}
Put this as your first line of CSS code it stripes out all the padding.

If you are using a pc the only thing that is different is in step 5 browse to your wamp folder and choose the www folder and in step 7 use localhost and get rid of the backslashes that dreamweaver has put there. For some reason with the backslashes there does not work. I am also using dreamweaver cs4

You can build a site with DW like they say with out knowing code. That is how I started with a split screen to start learning code. But DW is not perfect you will still need to know a little about code to do some stuff. What if you wanted an img out side of a <p> tag. You can not do that unless you are in code view. Although DW is helpful and can speed up the process you should still learn the code, HTML and CSS, with out knowing the code and how it works in my opinion you will never master web designing.
Also if you start with DW it is a very large program, meaning that you can use it do do a lot of things. Now you are learning code and a program it can get confusing. My advice is to learn at least some basic code before you start to use something like DW. DW is a tool to help speed up the process of building a website not the apsalute. Once I put DW down and started learning code I progressed a lot faster of the understanding of how a website works.

Cool thanks, I will use this.

Just a little tip. When you hand the site over to the client and show them how to make changes leave yourself as the admin and give them give them control under another name also keep a backup copy of what you gave them. They will make mistakes and call you to fix them. Not a bad thing if have a back up more cash but with out the backup more time less cash.

Thanks for the tip I still have a long way to go to figger this out. I can get it to show up in browser but does not show up in the text file. I will get sooner or later. I have two weeks to git it done. Also there was somewhere where we were asked for ideas for new tutorials. This would be a good one. How to write to a text file from a form and have it show up in the text file in a table. I have searched the internet for this and found no good ones on this either written or video, and seance you guys ROCK I am sure I would be able to understand it if you made a video series on this.

Hello, I have to create a text.file and write to it from a html form for the class that I am in. I do not expect anybody to do my work for me. What I need is a little advice. I have read my book, googled and have come up with a lot of info on doing this but I am still confuzed. I have created the form nothing to hard here. I can not get the form to post to my text file. Just keep getting a blank page. As I said I do not expect any body to do my home work but if you could tell me what part I am doing wrong so I can have an idea where to start to make this work. here is my code
the form
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<link href="main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<head>
<title>form</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="telephone_data_files.txt" method="post" name="frm_add_contact" id="frm_add_contact">
<fieldset>
<h1>Add a Contact</h1>
<label for="first_name">First Name:</label>
<input type="text" name="first_name" id="first_name" tabindex="10"><br/>
<label for="last_name">Last Name:</label>
<input type="text" name="last_name" id="last_name" tabindex="20"><br/>
<label for="street">Street:</label>
<input type="text" name="street" id="street" tabindex="30"><br/>
<label for="city">City:</label>
<input type="text" name="city" id="city" tabindex="30"><br/>
<label for="state">State:</label>
<input type="text" name="state" id="state" tabindex="50"><br/>
<label for="zip">Zip:</label>
<input type="text" name="zip" id="zip" tabindex="60"><br/>
<label for="phone">Phone:</label>
<input type="text" name="phone" id="phone" tabindex="80"><br/>
<input type="submit" name="add_contact" id="add_contact" value="Add Contact" tabindex="100">
<input type="button" name="show_contacts" id="show_contacts" value="Show Contacts" tabindex="120">
</fieldset>
</form>
</body>
</html>
the post contects
<?php
$first_name = $_POST["first_name"];
$values = "Name: $first_name\w";
$fp = fopen("telephone_data_files.text", "w") or die("could not open");
echo $first_name;
fclose($fp);
?>

Well I can not really help. But I would just use a pixi rollover and change the font on the active and hover in your css. What I mean is do not put the text on your img. I know you are way more advanced than me. So I know what you know what I am trying to say.
-
If that is the exact code try no spaces and $newSmarty Just for you know I am not the efficient in php but I would try that first.
-
Just a note, You have said that it has been awhile sense you have built a site. You are save with using 960px of width now for your main container. Also you do not have to put the div in front of #container. Not a big deal but if you are like me any keys that you do not have to hit on the keyboard is cool.

The link http://www.robertswebdesigns.com/contact_me.htm
My problem is I want the input boxes to change color when clicked on. I wrote
input.text:focus, textarea:focus {
background:#191919;
color:#FF0;
}
The textarea:focus works and the the text:focus does not.
The form
<div id="frmContent">
<form action="http://www.robertbonnerswebdesigns.com/cgi-sys/formmail.pl" method="post"name="hgmailer">
<p>
<input type="hidden" name="recipient" value="robert@robertbonnerswebdesigns.com" />
<input type="hidden" name="subject" value="FormMail E-Mail" />
</p>
<p> Your Name:<br />
<input name="name" type="text" onClick="MM_effectHighlight(this, 1000, '#ffffff', '#ff0000', '#ffffff', false)" value="" size="30" />
</p>
<p><br /> Your E-Mail:<br />
<input type="text" name="email" size="30" value="" />
</p>

Sorry LSW your img looks like a girl, guess that is what happens when we assume. Perfect point to the old saying as to what happens when we assume. Especially to me. I went and looked at your profile ups my bad.

I agree with the ladies, I have a lot of e-books on my pc and have not even looked at one. I thought they would come in handy. But I learned css from the video tutorials here and other sites that I will not mention here, that would be rude. I think that if you fell confident and your code is clean you are good. I have also never used the !important and do not even know what it means. As far as the z-index goes I have only had to use it once to put content on top of a stretched background.
Personally I do not think using a float based lay out is a bad thing. All types of layouts have there pros and cons. Like Andrea I learn new things as I need to to get the job done. Kinda like when I had my own constriction company. I had a lot of tools. But I did not get them all at once, I got them as I need them for the particular job that I needed. Before I new it I had to get a bigger place to store my tools. Like web designing you start with html then css and before you know you have php and javascript, now your tool box is getting full.
Do not worry about what some else's code looks like, as long as yours is clean. Everybody will have a little different style.

First thank you Second now I feel like a dummy I can not believe I missed that guess it just proves we are all only human and it is like writing an essay when you use the wrong word when you prof read you see what you think you wrote

Thanks BeeDiv for the link. I will book that as I probly will use it in the future. What I did to salve my prob is here http://www.r obertbonnerswebdesigns.com/first_interview.htm I give all the credit to Ben. Don't forget to remove the space. I put a div inside of a div.
-
I can not tell you how it is done. I can tell you that they used flash because it is a swf file. I have not used flash that much. Also for some reason I could not get the page to load with firebug turned on to see the javascript. Also If you do not have it down load the web developer toolbar add on for firefox, you can find out a lot of info about a site mark up and check your own work also.
-
I am not sure what you mean. When I went there if I went to the right site nothing zoomed out. I would try using the firebug to see if you can figure out the code to how they built the site.
-
I also use Hostgater. Go to there tutorials, they are excellent. If that does not get you the help that you need call there tec support. They are also excellent and will walk you through the process to make sure that you set up you database correctly.

This sounds like a big project. You will need more then DW to get this done. DW is used for writing code. You will need photoshop or fireworks for img editing. There are free ones out there though. For videos you will have to have another program. I use Flash to turn my videos into an swf file format for web use. Good luck and you came to the right place for help and advice there are a lot of great people here to help you along.
