Please, forgive me, i am very new at this HTML game, and I am assisting a friend in building his website,but having issue with placing a qty box for the number items that a person may have. And do not see and easier way to do it other than submiting the data in HTML, is there someone who who would be kind enough to help out this dumfounded idiot out.
Thx

Yeah, you'll want to POST the quantity back to the server. Which doesn't send it as HTML.
Don't take this wrong... but the fact that you'd even ask this question seems to indicate you need a lot more help than anyone's gonna give you in a single message board thread.
I suggest that you go to your local bookstore, find the programming aisle, and start flipping through web dev books 'till you find one that makes sense to you. Buy it and read it. Rinse, repeat...

Good suggestion. I may add that he ought to learn simple things first before taking on big projects.

Hi there.
I want to use marquee tag in my HTML file, but appears that marquee tag isn't XHTML standard. is it true?
What's ingrained of marquee tag in XHTML

I dont think it is.. Is it essential that you use the MARQUEE tag? It isn't very reliable.. And I think you'll have to use Javascript to do something similar.

Yes. so I have to use Javascript

It's better that way.. I don't think the MARQUEE tag is supported by some browsers either.. I remember when it was only supported in IE but I'm not sure if that's changed.

Think long and hard about it first. Marquee is - at best - annoying, and can provide real problems for folks with disabilities. If you do decide to implement a JS version, read this first: Ensure user control of time-sensitive content changes.[^]

I was writing some Javascript to clear a file uploader, and the following code will clear it on IE 7, Safari 3.1.2, and Opera 9.51:
document.forms[0].ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_fuTestFile1.outerHTML = document.forms[0].ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_fuTestFile1.outerHTML;
On Firefox 3.0.1, that code does not work. However, the following code works on Firefox only and none of the other browsers:
document.forms[0].ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_fuTestFile1.value = '';
Do any of you find Firefox to be the odd one out very often?

shouldn't you be writing
document.forms[0].ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_fuTestFile1.outerHTML = '';

No. I develop in FF initially, so code that uses outerHTML never works. 
Given that your first technique is essentially just a quick way of re-writing the <input> element, you should be able to accomplish the same thing explicitly using the DOM:
function dofilereset(fileInputId)
{
var f = document.getElementById(fileInputId);
var attrsToCopy = ['type', 'id', 'class', 'style', 'name', 'size', 'title',
'align', 'accept', 'tabindex', 'accesskey'];
var newF = document.createElement("input");
for (var i=0; i<attrsToCopy.length; ++i)
newF.setAttribute(attrsToCopy[i], f.getAttribute(attrsToCopy[i]));
f.parentNode.replaceChild(newF, f);
}

I've just received an image for the top banner of a site I'm busy on, and the guy who made it put lots of empty colour on both sides of the main image, so that regardless of screen width, we can always have the main image in the centre, equidistant from the sides. How can I mark up this image to achieve this, if I even can? Right now, as a plain image, it's fully left aligned and is broadening its TD to the right, off the screen. I need want to dynamically always have the centre of the image at the centre of my screen, with both sides cropped.

CSS:
background-image: url(imageurl);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center top;

Thanks! I applied that to the TD I was previously using to contain my banner text. I know tables are evil, but we're demoing this tomorrow, and they work for me. Is that acceptable for a prototype, or should I have applied the style to some other element of my table framework?

Whatever works. Can't really critique your code 'cause i'm not looking at it.

It'll keep us the contract for now, then I can go study up a proper css based three-column layout for production.

I'm experiencing inconsistent problems with FireBug. Step over + through sometimes work, sometimes just run, 'debugger' stopping execution is a gamble every time, etc.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this just part of the great, random, Javascript adventure?
|
|
|
|

Naw, i've had some trouble with it as well; the debugger seems to have some kinks left to be worked out.
One thing that helps sometimes: set up the debugger to be active for the given site, and then open the page in a new tab and debug in that.

What version are we supposed to be on? A colleague tells me he found two different ones; the 1.1.0b10, and a later, non-beta one.

1.2.0bn[^]

Thanks. BTW, why do you recommend Venkman and Firebug in your GreaseMonkey article? Is this just for diversity, or are there exclusive features I could use in both.
|
|

Firebug wins out in convenience, but Venkman has traditionally been a much more full-featured debugger. At this point - if you're doing client-side development - it's pretty much a matter of choice; either one will work just fine in most scenarios. I much prefer the recent versions of Firebug, since they do a great job in the UI department while staying out of the way.
