[QUOTE=cas97;33252592]The part where there's scripts and styles outside of the head probably has something to do with it.[/QUOTE] Uhm no.

[QUOTE=cas97;33252592]The part where there's scripts and styles outside of the head probably has something to do with it.[/QUOTE] yeah, [t]http://i.imgur.com/5YQxy.png[/t] He should fix that. [img]http://i.imgur.com/DTuru.png[/img] Brah, you never closed that comment thingy

you mean dreamweaver didn't lmao!

[QUOTE=TehWhale;33253303]you mean dreamweaver didn't lmao![/QUOTE] wait, he used dreamweaver and told us to fix it? :downs:

[QUOTE=zzlawlzz;33253343]wait, he used dreamweaver and told us to fix it? :downs:[/QUOTE] I don't think he made it, he was just saying that he thought it didn't display correctly in Chrome.

nah i made it. i Didn't use dreamweaver...?

[QUOTE=blackfire88;33253644]nah i made it. i Didn't use dreamweaver...?[/QUOTE]preloading images and tables? with the name untitled document? dreamweaver

HAHAHAH, thanks, i see what i did wrong 0.o i completely fucked up the layout of the code. I always make trivial mistakes. :/ [editline]13th November 2011[/editline] Dreamweaver can preload images? I didn't know that. Also the "untitled document" was because i am making this from a HTML template I made a while back. [editline]13th November 2011[/editline] Awesome, so it works on the latest version of Chrome, FireFox, Safari and Internet explorer.

The preload code Dreamweaver uses is pointless these days, you'd get a better result if you used "CSS Sprites" (A single request for every single image used)

[QUOTE=mobrockers2;33257716]It doesn't work on IE.[/QUOTE]Notice he said "latest version of internet explorer" you have IE8, that is not the latest version

[QUOTE=TehWhale;33257827]Notice he said "latest version of internet explorer" you have IE8, that is not the latest version[/QUOTE] Oh right.

what's the regex to select all letters upper and lower case, numbers and hyphens? I'm trying [code][-a-zA-Z0-9]+[/code] but that's giving me errors, they may or may not be related. edit: it is valid, I was being a sped with other stuff

[code] $setava = mysql_query("UPDATE members SET group = '$title' WHERE username = '$username'");[/code] I can not figure out why this doesn't work. No amount of googling helps. Error is [code]ERRORCould not connect: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'group = '.fuc.' WHERE username = '.elli.'' at line 1[/code] If anyone could help I'd cry tears of joy.

[QUOTE=StinkyJoe;33261480][code][\d\w\-][/code] This should do the trick.[/QUOTE] that works too, thanks. (It's probably neater too)

[code]$setava = mysql_query("UPDATE members SET group = '".$title."'

In a page almost identical to this one I just used the variable inside of quotes and it works and still works. I can't make any sense of it.

Is anyone else in ACM? EDIT: Seems pretty cool, they have lots of books on programming.

I can't make any sense of it.[/QUOTE] Know what, after looking at it for a bit longer, it could be because "group" is a reserved keyword in MySQL. I'd either rename the column, or try putting it in backticks (`).

-the first snip i've ever done on any forum ever-

Guys, which CMS would you recommend for a pretty small page ? The only function it needs is to be able to edit the content of pages using a easy to use editor. Wordpress would probably be a huge overkill, am I right ?

Is there any way for IE to display RGBA colours (for text) - or at least a work-around.. Or would it be better to just use images?? (See this is what i'm aiming for: [url]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25943008/WEBDESIGN/%23/index%20-%20Copy.html[/url] )

Hi, I'm having a problem with Internet Explorer. The page i made: [url]http://skeestorm.com/templates/page_template.html[/url] doesn't work with IE. I used CSS to place a fixed topbar, but internet explorer (unfortunately the browser some people use) doesn't like it. Is there a way to make it work for internet explorer?

You don't have <html>, you have <script></style> plenty of other things, those are just the first I noticed

Tables, check. No HTML starting tag, check. Inline JS, check. Inline CSS, check. Internal CSS, check. Internal JS, check. [B]WWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHYYYY?[/B]

Oh shit. I am THAT dumb. [editline]15th November 2011[/editline] added the tags, still doesnt work.
