Hi guys, my name is Christopher Tillack. OrginialGriff, you might remember me :)

I decided to persue HTML and I have learned a lot. I just wanted you guys to decide where this program goes... Also should I start learning C++ again? But first, what should I do with this program? Your choice.

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<head>
  <body>
    <html>
 
      <input class = button
        <var button;

    </html>
  </body>
</head>

What I have tried:

Well I guess it's up to you as to what I try.

"what should I do with this program?"

Finish is so it contains valid HTML?

You don't have to be so rude. I asked for help you know

OriginalGriff 31-May-22 14:17pm

That's not rude: it's a statement of fact.
You are asking for a direction to go in based on your current code - and it's useless because it's not even valid HTML, much less anything that shows us where you are as a developer.

What do you expect to get as a result? :laugh:

You did just plain insult me. You haven't changed since I was last here.

You also didn't help me one bit

If you're not going to be helpful don't respond please

I have no idea who you are, or were ... but if you think your were not helped last time, and aren't being this time, then perhaps you should consider that it may be the questions you ask, and how you ask them? Just a thought ...

I just checked. "Vampire Troll" and "Chris Tillack" both come up from March: a Help Vampire that refused to learn.

If you have started to learn, then welcome back. But if you are going to act the same way as last time, you won't stay long ... and the signs so far aren't good.

"what should I do with this program?"
Sorry to be harsh but, throw it away, as even if it was corrected, it serves no purpose.

If you really want to learn HTML then go to HTML Tutorial[^]. Alternatively try one of the many actual programming languages such as C# or Java that are used for application development.

If you want to include a whole DOM in another page so you did... ( old iframe did too )

Html5 engine are going quirk mode with your html style.
sure you'll have a render, something visible.

but , please, stay strict when you invoke Html 5 with your DOCTYPE declaration.

Html have "opening tag" and "closing tag", and singletons too.

Kindly your program need to be written again ;)

I try :

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
 <html>
  <head>
  </head>   
  <body>
    <button class="abutton">a button</button>
  </body>
 </html>

If the plan is to combine C++ and HTML this link might help.
www.tutorialspoint.com/cplusplus/cpp_web_programming.htm

Without information about what the "button" in HTML is supposed to be used for, one can only speculate here.

HTML

<form action = "/cgi-bin/mybutton.cgi" method = "post">
   <input type = "submit" value = "OK" />
</form>

or you can use button tag:

HTML

<form action="/cgi-bin/mybutton.cgi" method="post" id="myForm">
    <button type="submit" class="btn-info" name="something">Submit</button>
</form>

You need to master a set of techniques that are the basis of the job and are not linked to a language.

Advices:
- Start with an easy/safe language: VB, Java, C#, not C or C++. I do not recommend to start with Python either because of the usage of indentation.
- Read documentation / Follow tutorials (a lot of them)
- Start with tiny/useless projects, the purpose is to learn programming, not doing something useful.
- Start with console mode programs (no fancy graphics, no mouse)
- Learn debugger (an incredible learning tool)
Debugger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[^]
Mastering Debugging in Visual Studio 2010 - A Beginner's Guide[^]
- A problem ? Google is your friend.
- Learn one or more analyze methods, E.W. Djikstra/N. Wirth Stepwize Refinement/top-Down method is a good start.

There is no shortcut to knowledge, no one can learn for you, you are the only one that can do it.
Remember the exercises and little projects are not here to make something useful, they are here to teach you programming.

My most important part is probably: Learn one or more analyze methods.

Where should I go next?
