LOL I looked for "microsoft word icon" and all I got were sites that gave instructions on 'how to click' on the icon to start a microsoft word document. What search term(s) did you use Rob? I did end up getting a program that extracts icons from the dll or exe files. I just can't figure out how to convert them to a gif or jpg file from the ico file. I was looking for the 32x32 icons that were hopefully on transparent backgrounds specifically... but those ones you found will work! I just wish they weren't on white backgrounds... just doesn't look quite right. h_tp://www.indiemanagers.com/members/coe.htm (see bottom- -oh also ignore the PHP errors) Thanks, Nat

I was wondering if anyone here knows where I would find program icons. I actually need icons for Word and Adobe PDF to use for graphics for a site I am doing where there are Word Document and PDF downloads. I figured it would be best to find the icons already on my system for those programs and use them. I figured they might be in the Program folder, but I can't find them! Anyone know where they would be in my system? Thanks, Nat

OMG that is priceless! I'm sending that one to my Mum! Heee
-
That is what I am going to suggest to him. Thanks Dick You so rawk
-
Because you can use a character reference for TM and R but Sm requires a tag and you can't embed other tags within title. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why thankya sir! Makes perfect sense.
-
Those web sites are very informative. You would think browser support for these characters would be better than it is. I tried ℠ and it just shows as a box in IE 6. Now I will search for P in a circle.
-
Bummer, that's where the client wants it. grrrrr Oh well. LOL I tried. Why do R and TM work, but not <sup>?
-
it's smaller
-
Ok guys will check into those. What if I want the Service Mark to be in the <title></title> part of the site? Will the <sup></sup> work? Merci!
-
Ok I wonder if this is possible... I want a Service Mark entity for a site I am redesigning that has a program that needs it. I can do ™ = ™ ® = ® © = © But for the life of me I cannot find how to do a Service Mark SM that is supposed to be small and sort of at the top right of the title. It's supposed to look like the TM (™), but be SM Anyone have a clue how this is done? Thanks. Nat LOL seems the actual number, symbol combo for the TM just keeps switching to TM, but you get my drift... LOL
-
Thanks for the warning! Will keep an eye on the logs for sure. Nat
-
OK great. Just as long as they can't get in there... then it's all good

Andy, So If I want all user agents to exclude certain folders I would put the following into a .text file and upload it to the public_html directory?: ># /robots.txt file User-agent: * Disallow: /folder1 Disallow: /folder2 Nat

Hey gang, I remember waaaaay back there was a discussion about the robots.txt file that we include in our public_html folder. I can't seem to find it. I was wondering if someone could point me to some instructions how how to exclude certain folders from the bots so that those folders aren't indexed by the web search engines. Basically there are three folders on a website I host that they don't want web bots to crawl and index as they are private folders. They will be protected with amember, but I am not sure if this is enough to dissalow the bots from indexing them. Thanks, Nat

Just a question about backing up my phpbb board. When I do a general 'site backup' via cPanel, does my phpbb board get totally backed up? Is there a way to ensure a complete backup of all settings and posts? When I try to back the board up in the phpbb admin all I get is an empty SQL file. Thanks in advance.

Worked like a charm, Now, is there somewhere that explains why that rule is? Why does xHTML transitional require html { ? I'd love to read up more on that in case I run into some other problem by making all my pages xHTML compiant. Thanks Lisa!
-
Hmmm from all I am reading the scrollbar styling is in the right place and because the link to the CSS style sheet is in the <head> it should work correctly. I wonder if the scrollbar styling not showing is a result of making my page XHTML compliant? Any guesses? <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><!-- InstanceBegin template="/Templates/main_template.dwt" codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="false" --> <head> <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="doctitle" --> <title>IMA |</title> <!-- InstanceEndEditable --> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="http://www.indiemanagers.com/IMA_NEW/styles/main.css" />

Yah, probably! LOL

OK Jim, thank so much for that link. I finally did get the menus to work fine. Just made them HTML instead of Graphic. But I am going to look into the non JS menus. Still can't figure out why the scrollbar isn't working. I wonder if it is because I have it in the BODY CSS? I think maybe it is supposed to go in the HEAD. >BODY { color: White; background-color: #663333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; scrollbar-face-color: #663333; scrollbar-3dlight-color: #993366; scrollbar-arrow-color: Black; scrollbar-track-color: #663333; scrollbar-shadow-color: #663333; scrollbar-highlight-color: #cc9999; scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #cc9999; scrollbar-base-color: Black; background-image: url(../layout/scanline2.gif); } Not sure, still fiddling. My eyes are going square...

BTW Dick that did the trick.... cool!

Now... anyone have any idea why my Scrollbar CSS and the Java Script menus are not working? FYI The linking method I have for my Global Style Sheet is as follows: ><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="http://www.indiemanagers.com/IMA_NEW/styles/main.css" /> I know that IE 6 has that JS warning, but I did 'allow' the JS to run. It is not showing up right at all. BTW that SP 2 feature is a real pain in the I AM A SPAMMER. Is there a way to create a navigation bar with dropdown menus that doesn't require Java Script?
-
Jim! Yes that totally helps me. Thanks so much for explaining it. So basically, I can put those lines of code anywhere in the CSS file and it will be fine. Cool!
-
Ah, you know I was thinking that might be it. But I really wasn't sure how to fix it since I want these main tables centered. Hopefully styling the inner table will help. BTW I am going over your email with Jeremy today and will reply ASAP. Thanks guys. I really learn so much from all this trial and error and having some guideance helps so much!

Hi Dick, Thanks so much for that bit of code. One question: how does the code know where my header and footer are? I was trying to look up info about headers and footers, but I am really confused. I didn't even know you could assign something to be a header or a footer. This would really help me out if I could figure it out. Right now I have the "headers" stuff in tables and same for the "footers". But they aren't 'real' headers and footers. And the other thing that is important is that I am making this file into a Dreamweaver Template. Not sure if that matters tho? Hope that made sense! LOL Where in this CSS file would it best go?: >BODY { color: White; background-color: #663333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; scrollbar-face-color: #663333; scrollbar-3dlight-color: #993366; scrollbar-arrow-color: Black; scrollbar-track-color: #663333; scrollbar-shadow-color: #663333; scrollbar-highlight-color: #cc9999; scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #cc9999; scrollbar-base-color: Black; background-image: url(../layout/scanline2.gif); } table { background-color: #663333; } h2 { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bolder; color: #cc9999; } h1 { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bolder; color: #CC9999; } A { color: Silver; } A:HOVER { color: White; }

Hi again gang I'm tweaking a design for one of the sites I maintain and decided to make a Dreamweaver Template to re-create the site because we are adding in new features and a whole ton of new pages. In order to speed up future changes, I decided to go with a template and the re-populate the site using pages created via the template. To take a look at my test page (use IE and Firefox): http://www.indiemanagers.com/IMA_NEW/test.htm I decided to make a new CSS style sheet to style the text, background and the background color of the tables and have run into a couple of snags: 1.) The text in IE 6 is showing up "Centered" and the text in Firefox is showing up as it should "Left Justified". Does anyone know why this might happen? 2.) The Java Script menus that I created in Fireworks all look strange now. I wonder if the CSS is affecting how the menus look? Does this happen when you apply CSS to a whole site? How would I fix that? Please see image posted to see what the Menus should actually look like. 3.) My scrollbar styling isn't working in IE. Not sure why that is. View the CSS sheet to check out how it is supposed to look. Is the following possible?: I want the Site Credits text in the very bottom table to be 11px and Centered. How can I do this using my global style sheet? I can't figure out if I will just have to manually center the text and change the size in Dreamweaver or if this seperate "style within a style" can be done using my style sheet. BTW I am using TopStyle Pro to do my style sheets... sorry still learning all this CSS and not a hard core hand coder If you want to see my style sheet the link is: http://www.indiemanagers.com/IMA_NEW/styles/main.css Thanks for any insight you can provide to help me get rid of these buggies!
