  3. Don - "_top" did the trick! Thank you, sir, I appreciate your help immensely. Thumbs Up
  4. A very dear, and wise, friend of mine had a saying that I value to this day. I've never fallen into an open manhole, but there's been many a crack in the sidewalk that's landed me flat on my arse. It's the little things that make us red in the face. When the big stuff happens, someone sends in the pros from Dover, or your Mother, whichever applies at the moment. There's nothing like a piece of software to make us look like less-than educated monkeys, especially if others are looking on. Tomorrow it will be someone else's turn Thomas - probably mine.

  10. I love finding out it's the software and not me! I posted on the CSB support board and Samantha knew exactly what I was dealing with. It's a problem with CSB that happens with no pattern or explaination. She gave me an HTML workaround. It's a shame because the built in feature was really nice. I hope they work it out before the next release. The work around code is: SAMI'S CODE TO MANUALLY FIX THE HOVER/BKRND CHANGE LINK PROBLEM: <STYLE> <!-- a:hover { color:#660099;background-color:#C0DCC0; } --> </STYLE> This is posted on her site www.samisite.com in the "Known Problems Area" - I swear, Globalscape should be paying her a royalty fee!

  13. Mike - You're in for a real treasure if you take the time to make that morning cup of coffee a ritual. Watching the passage of a year as told to you by the trees and the birds and the squirrels and the plants is one of life's grander lessons - and privileges, in my book. Congratulations to you and the wife on arriving at your new home! It's August - wow, it's almost showtime for those decidious trees and the squirrels are going to be dancing like crazy getting ready for the winter. You're in for a treat. Best of luck as you settle in. Got your camera handy?
  14. Don - Thanks for the response. I'd spent a good part of the day bouncing around betwenn CSB, PhotoShop and Irfan trying to get those image buttons tweaked. They're still not where I want them, LOL, but I appreciate the encouragement. All are images from my own garden. Latest version of CSB? Hmm....as in interim release? OK, I'll pop over to their site and see wht I can find. I have CSB4 on CD, which I purchased in March '04. I printed out the user guide and have my registration key printed in big red letters & numbers on the front page Thumbs Up - I know about those rascalls! I always set up a separate directory for my projects - old desktop publishing habits die hard, LOL, with separate sub-directories for text files, graphics, images, scripts, and even the much maligned "misc." direcory. It know that my image buttons take me to other pages while those way cool rollover buttons open a new window, but I was so proud of getting Sami's rollover button script working, customized and looking so good on my page. I'm just going to have to figure out a way to make them work - I just like them too much. OK, OK - I know, just like a woman! But, they are pretty, aren't they? Sami does such cool stuff! Those aren't even the rollovers that weren't working. Way down at the bottom of the front page is a TotalChoice Hosting link. It's supposed to change background and increase text-size on rollover. It looked really good when it was working and you couldn't miss it if your mouse got anywhere near it. Now the rollover's not working. I put test links on other pages and they were working fine, too, then zip! I published and they were gone. I went in and manually edited the Page Layout settings, and manually edited each page's Page Area definitions for the HTML Link definitions, saved but couldn't see it in preview anymore. I'll let you know what happens. Thanks!

  16. My installed, licensed copy of CSB 4 is acting in ways that make me suspect I may need to reinstall it. I've been working for about 10 hours and have had to reboot my system 3 times to correct errors that were totally unexplainable and unresponsive. The latest of these is a disappering rollover for link text that has been working fine all day. Now that I've published the file, the rollover's gone. I've double checked the HTML Link Definitions in both the Page Layout settings and the Page Area definitions. Both are identical and set for a rollover, which, as I said has been working just fine all day. Earlier, CSB decided to eat a page background graphic which existed on the logical page but would not display on the physical page until I rebooted the computer. Dumping my cache didn't do a thing. It had been just fine for hours before hand, just up and disappeared for a while! So, I've got all my files backed up. Is there anything else I need to do? Or, does anyone have a suggestion for something that may be sitting in front of my face but I can't see at the moment? My system is healthy, everything else is functioning fine - only CSB is unhappy at the moment. Yuck! Thanks for your help, as always!! Thumbs Up PS: OK, OK - I can hear you Sam - "Link???" newsite beginning
  17. Good grief, thank the stars you found us - sounds like just in time! Well, you're here now and this is the best place to land after all you've been through! Welcome to the TCH family affair. Glad to have you join us. Thumbs Up

  20. Thanks for letting us know Sami - I'll take the candle out of the window now, but I'll keep sending thoughts your way for your neighbors and friends. In May, the areas around where I live were devastated by flooding and tornadoes so I can relate. I'm glad the furbabies are taking it in stride. Baxter, as usual, is hard at work demonstrating her gold medal skill of guarding the sofa by sleeping soundly across the back of it in her favorite sunbeam. The quilt beneath her is absolutely secure from any dastardly attack that might come its way.

  22. Sami - You know Baxter & I are holding you and the furbabies in our hearts. Be safe and be well. Let us know as soon as you can that you're OK. Got a candle in the window for you and all of our TCH family down near Charley. Good thoughts are with all of you.
