Yes I see, but how do you link a Valid CSS icon to an advanced

Validate it, then copy/paste the URL (don't forget to convert  
ampersands to entities).


Or see http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/html/validation.html#icon

RE: [WSG] Shadow validation

Not sure about the 1.X series, but text shadow is supported in Safari
2.X  - I have been using it for quite a while, and love it.

Regardless of whether it's valid or not, hardly any mainstream 
browsers currently support text shadows. (Does Firefox? I can 
only think of Safari 3, only available as the WebKit until 
Leopard gets released).

[WSG] Select that goes to a new URL

2007-07-10 Thread Paul Collins

Hi all,

This should be pretty basic stuff, but coding the forms can be a bit
above me sometimes :) I've hunted around and can't seem to find the
answer, so here goes...

I've got a select box, with a bunch of options that need to go to
another page in the website when the go button is clicked. I'm running
this on my localhost, so not sure if the CGI scripts are all there, I
am running PHP though, so it would be ideal to set it up that way.

Here is my code, would appreciate any links/advice.  Cheers

form 
action=post
action=http://localhost/includes/redirect.php; name=selectCourse
id=selectCourseForm

I've tried it with this redirect PHP script, but doesn't seem to work:

?

2007-07-10 Thread Chris Taylor
Your select name attribute is New_URL but you're looking for a POST
attribute called id. Change your PHP script to $_POST[New_URL] and it
should work.

Re: [WSG] Select that goes to a new URL

2007-07-10 Thread Ross Bruniges
you should use $_POST['New_URL'] - thats going to be the value of the select 
box. Looking at your code there is nothing called ID on there!

and also - PHP is really off topic of this list, not sure of any PHP mailers 
but the sitepoint forums always get me out of bother!

Thanks for your help guys, makes more sense. It still isn't working
though, so I'll go find another forum to post to about PHP.

Cheers

Should be : method=post NOT action=post

But I have to wonder why the need to use this method to form a purely  
navigational function..? Unless you're collecting other data within  
the form before the redirect?

[WSG] Visual Design Of Websites

2007-07-10 Thread Marvin Hunkin
Hi.
just wondering, any one able to give advice, help, tips, tricks and techniques.
now, failed my two visual design subjects in my web site design course.
and have to re-enroll for next semester.
the main problems i had was understanding layers in css, and how to use them in 
a website.
like, for example, a banner layer, conetn, navigation, use of colors, 
proximity,contrast etc.
and also when i found my images for the site was creating, the images were too 
big, and even though i used the width and height property in the html code, 
still was too big and dominating the content on the page.
also the color, was the wrong background and fore ground color.
and also, for my other subject page design and layout, any one got any good 
examples, or tips of how to do good design and page layout, and use of colors, 
on the page, but still got the css, layers problems, and not understanding of 
the different page design layouts.
and the same problem with the images, too big, and not able to edit or crop, 
using a graphics or photo editor program with jaws, without sighted help, which 
i have asked my disability officer, for some assistance.
also, for one of the subjects for next semester, will come up again, with the 
developing a commercial website, and how it looks, and functions.
and also, story boards, as not able to use a accessible drawing package, like 
Visio, to use with a screen reader.
so had to do it in word, and put tables, but still did not work out correct.
sorry for the long message, but had to explain myself, about design, 
positioning, colors, layout, etc.
if any one can help, e-mail me privately.
cheers Marvin.
