Here's a quick one for you... Is there a way to select an item from an HTML drop down menu via javascript?

Here's the story, I have a menu which allows the user to 'narrow down' a potentially very long list of items by selecting various sub categories or groups. I would also like to allow them to pick an individual item, so have included a text input box next to the menu. In the 'onchange' event of this input field I'd like to set the menu selection back to 'Please Select...' for example. Can this be done?

Thanks in advance

in my page i have an outer div which is holding 4 inner divs following is the code

#outer{
float: left;
width: 900px;
height: auto;
}

#outer .inner1{
float: left;
width: 200px;
height: auto;
}
#outer .inner2{
float: left;
width: 200px;
height: auto;

#outer .inner3{
float: left;
width: 200px;
height: auto;
}
#outer .inner4{
float: left;
width: 300px;
height: auto;
}

after this a new div starts with width 900px with the remaining page content, in order to clear the floats before the new div starts i have used

<br class="break" />
.break{
clear: both;
}


due to this the next div top edge starts exactly below the bottom edge of the outer div which is holding the inner divs, only in ie6 and ie7 there is a small vertical gap which i want to remove, as of now i have used
*margin: -3px 0 0 0; and _margin: -3px 0 0 0; for ie6 and ie7 for the next div and it looks similar to all other browsers

instead of using the -3px top margin is a way i can avoid the 3px vertical gap that ie is creating.
can i change .break to
.break{
clear: both;
height: 1px;
}

i am not very sure of this. sometimes this code also works <div class="clear"></div> .clear{clear: both;} as an alternative to <br class="break" />

also i have tried using the following code to fix ie6 and 7

* html .divname{
margin: -3px 0 0 0;
}
*+html .divname{
margin: -3px 0 0 0;
}


the advantage of using * html does not give any warnings when i validate the code from w3.org website however using _ and * gives a warning message for using _ and *

please advice if there is a way to avoid the 3px gap in ie6 and 7 without the above code or if there is no other alternative other than to use any of the 2 techniques

About a week ago, my website, akril.sq7.org, became labeled as a potential attack site by Mozilla Firefox. Upon further investigation, I found that all of my HTML files and JS files had a line of script added to them that redirected the viewer to another site. Naturally, I removed all the code I could find, only to see it reappear the following day.

I contacted the owner of sq7.org, and since none of the other sub-domains under that address besides mine had any similar problems with them, he suggested that I might potentially have a PHP file with outdated code in it, which could have been a weakness in my site's security. As it turns out, I did have such a file on it, and since I had no more need of it, I deleted it, as well as the new code that had appeared in my files by overwriting them.

As I found out the following day, the only thing this changed was the website the script being added was directing viewers to. This time it was to a site that automatically infected the viewer's computer with a Trojan, something I found out the hard way when my computer got briefly infected by visiting my own homepage (despite having Spy Sweeper up and running).

Finally, I did what I should have done in the first place and asked the domain name's owner to change my password, since I didn't see what else could be done. He did this and cleaned up my files for me, and for a while, I was convinced that the crisis was over. However, this morning at around 1:30 AM, my files were changed yet again, with code for yet another website being inserted into my HTML and JS files.

I honestly don't know what else I can do. I've switched from WS_FTP to FileZilla, the most highly recommended FTP program I could find, deleted the PHP file that was apparently the original cause of this problem, and changed passwords*, yet my website is still getting hacked. I've considered switching to another file transfer program, but I'm not sure if that would help at this point, and I haven't been able to locate any that look beginner-friendly.

Is there any advice that anyone here can give me regarding this problem?

I have no clue about pricing to work on websites however this a quote I got from someone I just did business with on another project. My site is up and running fine in FireFox and IE but maybe not in other browsers as I have not checked it. He says there are a number of errors on the site and this would fix it. Below is his email.

Quote:
On the fixes of your website:
I would recommend fixing at least 2 pages: the main page and the shopping (store) page.

We also need to fix the CSS code for those pages. There are some errors there. Pages will not show good in some browsers.

On the store page, we have to make assure that the shopping cart code is working correctly for each product.

My service on the store page would be to clean up the code, make sure it shows good in most browsers, work out the shopping cart code, and have the entire code for that page W3C validated. I will charge $200 for that page.

My service for the main page would be the same, however that page does not contain the shopping cart code, therefore I would charge $150 for that page.

If you order both pages at the same time, I would remove the CSS code from these two pages to work from a separate file. The pages should load faster that way. I will then make sure the page is also W3C validated. As a bonus, I will revise the keywords for these 2 pages and eventually, as appropriate, apply some small SEO tricks to improve search engine indexation.

For an extra $50, I will prepare a XLM sitemap readable by Google and other search engines. The sitemap I’m talking about is not the sitemap used as an index for the website. It’s a sitemap used by the search engines’ spider robots to craw websites for indexation. These sitemaps are designed based on some rules or the robots will not read it.

Add to it more $50, for a one-time job, and I will prepare a code to measure the several statistics on your site, and as an extra bonus, I will submit the main page to a number of search engines.

Please note, I’m not proposing or including any changes to the website design or appearance. It will still look the same. However, if we fix the code, your website will work lighter, and browser friendlier.

The code below... This is a continuation of another thread but as the subject of the problem is now completely different, I decided it best to start another.

The code below loads a home page and (providing a cookie is not present) it loads a fullscreen black div with a container for a very short flash 'intro'. The Div then auto-closes after 4 seconds and therefore allows the flash to finish (as I couldn't find a way of linking the video end event to the closure of the div.) This is also quite good as it means that if there is a massive delay in the loading of the page, the video ends up not playing at all and so great for slow connections.

So, the problem, well for some reason, the black div seems to load after the rest of the page, particularly in Opera and Safari but sometimes in FF as well. This makes it look like you are being diverted away from the site just to watch a stupid 2.2 second video whereas I want it to seem like a small video to watch while the rest of the page loads behind.......? :D

New to the forum so hope this is the right area to post!

Ok so I am trying to design a flash box which will feature 3 boxes, each box will have a still image of myself and once the user rolls over each image it begins to play a movie as if the image has come to life while the mouse is over.

I've had a look around the net for how to do this, but cant find exactly what I want to do.

I want the movie to only play when the mouse is hovered over the image, so when the mouse is not hovering over the image I want it to return to this image. Or alternatively, depending on whether its possible it would be nice for the movie clip to actually pause once the mouse has stopped hovering over it and then when the mouse goes back over it the movie just continues.

But first of all, I just want to know how I can do this, then i'll look at ways I could improve it slightly.

I understand now that any layout's style sheet controls the appearance of all site pages. I've also seen things written about having several style sheets on one website. I barely understand the basics of using a style sheet. But to write out three or four of them? G-a-h!

On my current website I have pages that show images, but many do not or wouldn't really need to. If I were to use a template like the one shown, and make all my pages look like that, is there a means of placing an image where I want it on some of my pages?

I guess my basic question is how to adapt a free layout to my own requirements?

Advice, anyone? ]]> rosebud0419 http://forums.techguy.org/web-design-development/877665-found-great-template-now-i.html <![CDATA[It CAN'T be this hard to my mySQL files from one computer to the next!]]> http://forums.techguy.org/web-design-development/877591-cant-hard-my-mysql-files.html Sun, 15 Nov 2009 20:42:52 GMT It just can't be this hard! I have no programming experience, but am taking some pretty good dreamweaver / HTML course that are introducing us to the fundamentals of dynamic websites using Coldfusion and mySQL.

So, I've created some simple mySQL databases (mySQL 5.1). Created the tables in Administrator. Added the data using the query browser (next week we learn other ways to add data to tables :D ). I'm doing all of this on my laptop that I take to class. I'd like to transfer this work to my home desktop. Transferring the actual site (.cfm & html) pages is no hassle -- just copy the files to the corresponding directory from my laptop to my desktop. But I can't figure out how to transfer the actual database table data. Not the schemas or tables. But the data. I've been googling the subject, and keep coming up with answers about "generating scripts" or using something called a "mySQLdump", but I don't have the working knowledge to understand the instructions.

People must do this all the time if they are moving from one host to the next. Any simplified help would be appreciated. Oh yeah, system specs:

Laptop is running Win7 home premium, that stores schemas (?) under Users/Program Data. I will be transferring files to an XP machine (XP has a different place that stores this information). I'm currently using Coldfusion 8 developer edition to interact with dreamweaver. I am running all sites on a "local" server, and not uploading the files. I'm using Adobe dreamweaver CS3 to create sites. Coldfusion, Dreamweaver, and mySQL 5.1 are loaded on both machines in the same directories.

Oh yeah. Windows 7 doesn't play nicely with XP for file sharing (I finally gave up on that one). Only works one way. Win7 can see and edit files on XP machine, but XP cannot do the same unless files are in the "public" directory on the Win7 machine.

Any help would be appreciated. Even explaining to a BONEHEAD LIKE ME how to execute the mySQLdump procedure. I guess I have to take programming next semester.

Thanks in advance,

I've put together an enquiry form in ASP.NET 3.5 in C#, and it works perfectly fine. I now want to provide the users with feedback saying that their message has been sent and also provide the details they have just entered. Such as Name, Email and Message

At the moment I have simply got 'Message Sent' as feedback. This is done by putting the following code in the codebehind page.

protected void btnSend_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
lblMessage.Visible = true;
}

and this in the main aspx page

<asp:Label ID="lblMessage" runat="server" Text="Message Sent" Visible="false"></asp:Label>

I want to do something similar for the other fields:-
Name = the filed name is txtName
Email = the field name is txtEmail
Message = the field name is txtMessage

This is how I want it to look on the page after the user has submitted their form.

Message sent on '13/11/09 14:10'

Name: Joe Bloggs
Email: joe@bloggs.com
Message: I would like to do this.

Can this be done using the variables? I'm fairly new to ASP.NET so still learning. If anyone who is more advanced could help that would be brilliant.

I'm a webdesigner, and I would like to ask for your help and opinion. I have an ACER 5050-4598 since 2007:
  • with 130 GB of space disk,
  • 1GB of DDR
  • it is a AMD Turion 64 Mobile T.
  • 2.2 GHz, 512 KB L2 Cache
The fact is that 6 months ago, maybe more, It has become more & more difficult to work because it seems like that the processes that I run for work: like Photoshop and other image editing/webdevelopment softwares are still too heavy for my Laptop.

It has happened that the fan is triggered by a good time, then I reset or turn off my Laptop and when I try to turn it on again it do not work. I just got to wait some minutes.

I believe that there are too many processes and the computer is getting warm easily.

Now, my question is: Should it be better to buy more RAM (to give it more space to processes) than to buy a new laptop? what are your suggestions?

Sorry for a big ask first post..

What I was hoping is possible, which may not be is to somehow have an active Excel formula on site which can be used by visitors as a useful Distance/Time Planning Tool. I understand excel but do not understand the world of web.. It needs refining of course but if I can attach it here is the formula. If I can’t then here isn’t the formula..

and this direct my potential customers to zone alarm pro selling his stuff !!!
people getting this warning have registered through checkpoint.com a web security site affiliated with zone alarm Pro thatt was freely distributed a month ago.

I contacted zone alarm customer service they could not say nothing about this and told me to contact technicians. I did and was told that is banner appears for all and every new website for 3 months after that is is removed.
the argument is: most malicious website are new websites

so they put any NEW website i n the same package and defamatory statement ans chase all my customers away. no wonder people came to my index page and do not enter!!!

Iask them what happen after 3 months and I really am a malicious website.
response: then we will detect you are malicious and post it .

I think this rather abusive. The reason not to detect a REALLY malicious website right away is, they get free advertising for 3 months on ALL new websites on the owner expenses. meanwhile honest people loose business !!!

my website is safe www.clcadventurevacation.com. proof is, it points to the same pages as my older domain www.cavelakescanyon.com that is NOT flagged by Checkpoint because is 4 years old.
so the website is SAFE and should be checked as such instead of using the loosy pretext it is less than 3 months old.

owner is looking for selling this property and may have lost potential buyers because of this.

Is there anyone who could help me on legal matter or how to contact someone with this issue?:mad: ]]> pierjean http://forums.techguy.org/web-design-development/876088-defamatory-abusive-practices-zone-alarm.html Kompozer - going from Frontpage 2000 http://forums.techguy.org/web-design-development/876064-kompozer-going-frontpage-2000-a.html Tue, 10 Nov 2009 14:19:47 GMT My first time on techguy.

my current web page is in MS Front Page (no comments, puhllleeaase!)..I have zero page rankings, more or less. Should I:
1) buy and learn Dreamweaver myself - 6 wk. online courses - I'm 'somewhat' savvy, know a little html, understand images vs. text re. importance to rankings, have good design eye for colors, fonts, images, and know about keywords, etc. However, i'm not the most patient person...get irritated when 'things' don't work well right away.
2) hire local designer - who has lots of sites I've seen; she ONLY does the design - i'm a pet sitter - I don't need sleek and too deep - only 5 pages or so...I would have to hire an SEO person separately.
3) hire someone who SAYS they 'do it all' - design and SEO. and blog, etc. I'd love to have someone who can tie everything together.

How do I know if someone realy KNOWS about SEO - everyone seems to know lingo...my head is dizzy. I do want to be able to go in and add pet pictures, local events, etc. myself. Is that asking too much?

My 'design' is pretty much 'set.' I'm much more interested in the SEO part - NOT the design part. However, I can't get anyone to work with me on MS Front Page - code apparently is not good for Google algorythym (sic) - I don't understand completely. Is it possible to find someone who could do more with current (ms front page) site, instead of rehauling in new software?

Price point - most are around $50/hr. There are about 5000 web designers per square mile here in Asheville ( similar to # of yoga teachers! maybe they're the same people!), but I'm wasting a lot of time trying to decide: to spend LOTS of time myself vs. just paying (I've been quoted $750 approx. by 2 people - just for design).

Any ideas, suggestions? Write me privately for additional info - if necessary.

I have some (maybe strange) question. Is it possible to check contact e-mail from any website ? Sometimes it is impossible to see contact e-email from some page but maybe there is some trick to check it.

What I use to do is analyze page by Alexa (http://www.alexa.com/) and there is 'Contact Info' option but I don't know if it works correctly. Any idea ?

I see a few that would be wonderful for my needs, simple and basic though they are. Nothing like a little flash and dash to pep things up, though, agreed??

Trouble is, I haven't a blind clue where to begin. I look at the source pages and it's all Chinese to me. So frustrating. Since I figured out how to get my simple little css layout to work (even though I agree, there are flaws), I think I know maybe 2 percent more about css than I did a few months ago, lol. But this is only a drop in the proverbial bucket, not anywhere close to what I would have to know to implement a style like those beautiful sites linked to this URL:

I'm still wondering how to design other site pages to "match up" with a really fancy homepage, as well... What I have at the present is a mismatched hodgepodge, but that's all I've known how to do for all these years. :o

Yes I realize, I should be "training" myself in css design. But it would take a long time to learn all I need to know... ]]> rosebud0419 http://forums.techguy.org/web-design-development/875783-um-now-what-more-webdesign.html html e-mail with php mail http://forums.techguy.org/web-design-development/875775-html-e-mail-php-mail.html Mon, 09 Nov 2009 16:06:09 GMT I am using php mail function to send e-mails to several addresses.

This script lists the newsletter issues in a directory and allows you to press on a link which should post that specific issue number to the next page. Trouble is, the same number is posted whichever link is pressed.

PHP Code:
$dir = opendir('newsletters/');

while (false !== ($read = readdir($dir))) {
if (substr($read,0,5)=='Issue') {
$issue=substr($read,5,2);
echo '<form name="form' . $issue . '" method="POST" action="newpage.php">';
echo '<input name="issue" type="hidden" value="' . $issue . '" /><a href="javascript: submitform()">Issue ' . $issue . '</a></form>
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript">

I'd like to create application for mobile phone (maximum price of phone would be about 220USD, it is for Central Europe; I will be testing the application on Sony Ericsson k750i and maybe on Motorola V500). The application must recognize speech and properly react for recognized numbers (calculate control sum and respond). I'd like to use CMU Sphinx, but I still need to decide whether it would be [1] or [2]. Solution [1] is as follows: speech recognition on mobile phone (PocketSpinx) and sending results to server (post, httpconnection; I also tried Wireless Messaging API but it didn't work properly). Aprroach no. [2]: redirecting of speech from mobile phone to server (I thought about Digium + Asterisk but Digium cards are rather expensive) and speech recognition on server (Sphinx4).

I think I will choose the [2]-nd option, however I thought about different way of connecting to internet, because those Digium cards are expensive. I thought about GSM/3G or CDMA but I'm not sure whether those would be good enough to ensure real time speech between user on mobile phone and program on server.

Somebody suggested me that mobile phone with Skype would be cheap and good option. I will be using this application in the place where they've got office with access to cable internet and fax, and mobile phone would be several kilometers from the office. From my point of view, creating wireless network with some kilometers of range would be too expensive and there may be too many distortions of signal. And here I've got question for you. Let's assume I've got mobile phone. On this phone I installed Skype and the phone has access to internet (GSM/3G or CDMA). I also have got Skype and Sphinx4 on server. How should I configure it so that Skype on server can automatically receive the call from mobile phone and redirect it to Sphinx4, and server can answer from time to time to Skype? In other words: a) how to allow Skype to receive automatically call from mobile phone?, b) how to redirect speech from Skype to other application? (I also thought about Fring, which may be alternative for Skype).

Thanks very much for your answer in advance :-)!
