    Validation before submitting Form

    Thanks for your help guys. I have now got the coding to work okay, without any changes. Looks like it was a problem with my test rig. The Form is infact sent for processing to a server-side C++ Shopping cart app, so trying to simulate that in a test situation on my local PC must have caused the...

    Validation before submitting Form

    Hi, I'm trying to check the contents of an HTML form using the onSubmit="return Validate();" option within the form statement, where Validate is a JS function. The function seems to be called okay before the Submit button, however whatever the result returned from Validate(), the...

    Netscape .style.left

    Dan, thanks. I was already using a div with position:absolute, so it was easy to add in the top/left to the div.style as you suggest. Re downloading the .mp3. I zipped one up, and the .zip file was larger than the .mp3. So I thought as I want to offer site visitors the option to play the .mp3...

    Netscape .style.left

    Hi, I am developing a drop-down menu. To position the drop down boxes I am setting (item).style.left in IE, but Netscape ignores it. Same with .style.top . Any suggestions ? Secondly: Can I have an href link to an mp3 file which instead of automatically invoking the media player, allows the...

    window.prompt

    Yes, thanks. I also found a useful how-to on the IE Knowledgebase, which is a first.

    window.prompt

    Thanks, showModalDialog() seems to do the trick. Is it possible to control the size and position of the dialog, like with window.open ? (Have tried to copy the parms but they do not work). Do you know of an online source for IE user-support for this level of programming detail ?

    window.prompt

    Hi, I am using window.prompt, to prompt the user for info. Is it possible to control where on the screen the prompt box appears ? By default it is top-left - not ideal. Can I also control the size of the prompt dialog box ? By default it is far wider than it needs to be. Can I also get rid of...

    Frames

    Hi, I am trying to set up a simple 2-frame index page, the top frame being a menu bar, which links to other pages. The main bottom frame displaying all other pages. I cannot get the menu bar links to bring up the new page in the main frame of the index page. Index.htm: <frameset...

    Drop down menu positioning

    Hi, I'm trying to develop a drop down menu bar - where there is a row of buttons across the top of the page, and when you move the mouse over one of them a sub-menu drops down, lined up with the button. I am having trouble getting the sub-menu to line up with the button, especially if the...

    background-image does not appear

    Thanks, that's great. Is there an equivalent &quot;padding-top&quot;. I've tried it but it doesnt seem to do anything. Pinpoint

    background-image does not appear

    Yes that site looks good, thanks. One minor corollary. I have a table holding text, and I'm using a background-image behind the text. What I'd like to do is offset the text from the left hand edge of the table cell - ie set a left-margin, but without the background-image also being offset by...

    background-image does not appear

    Hi, I'm trying to display a repeating background-image in either a style-sheet, or a div, (or both). However neither will display my image. Code is : .head11{text-decoration:none; font-family:times new roman; font-size:20px; font-weight:normal; color:#000077; background-image:logo.gif...

    div scrolling text does not work

    Thanks all. Adding the px to the height and width properties has done the trick. Pinpoint.

    div scrolling text does not work

    Hi, I'm trying to set up a simple text box, which will auto-include scroll bars to allow text larger than the box to be displayed. My test code is <div id=&quot;priceswindow&quot; style=&quot;position: absolute; width: 200; height: 300; overflow: hidden; border-width: 2px; border-style...

    Email from C++

    Hi, Can anyone point me to a Unix C++ email package. I need one I can install on my server and then #include and simply call a function from within my code to send a string of text as an email ? Please include the web-site URL where I can download. Thanks.

    Filebuf equivalent ?

    Hi, I need the Unix C++ equivalent of the Windows ifstream/ofstream filebuf setting, ie os.open(&quot;file.dat&quot;, ios::out, filebuf::sh_none) ; Can anyone tell me if there is one, or some other way to ensure a file cannot be updated twice simultaneously ? Thanks.
