Having a few questions

February 26, 200917 yr

Hey all just found this site after looking for a solution in google so I thought I could try here

I've got some errors displayed on my pages though they seem to go away if the page is refreshed most from what I've checked on the error report in dreamweaver show most are affecting netscape browsers

I've attacted the xml file if anyone can have a look and mainly I want the CSS external one sorted out

also I've been trying to set up a registration page but no luck as I've gotten confused with all the ways to do it is there a easy but workable way to set this up?

Have you tried validating your site using the W3C validator and seeing the errors it produces? Dreamweaver's error reporting isn't all that helpful. It would probably be better if you gave the link to a live example of the page you're experiencing errors with or pasting the html/css here.

Thanks for that will beable to check through the errors now

is it possible to set up a resgistration form with just using PHP script I saw a tutorial on it and tried to set up one for my site following those instructions but at the end it says page cannot be found

Do you have the code you used?

It's possible, just sounds like your directing the script to the wrong place.

Your code is a hindrance to read because there are inline style sheets everywhere. While this is accepted, please put ALL of your css in an external file and link to it by using: <link type="text/css" href="Location" rel="stylesheet">

I'm not sure if this will solve your problem, but you use the "align" attribute. This attribute is deprecated, meaning that your not supposed to use it anymore. Instead, you should use:

element{

width: whatever;

margin-left: auto;

margin-right: auto;

}

which centers content.

Please organize your code a little bit better

Hope I helped.

Iris, I'm fairly sure that doesn't work on IE6 and under without a hack.

The hack is that you need:

body { text-align:center; position:absolute; height:100.1%; width:100%; }
body div { text-align:left; }

at the top of your stylesheet - otherwise elements won't centre using the margin:auto technique.

It's fine in IE7, Firefox, Opera, Webkit, etc...

You're right! I'm sorry (Wasn't thinking about the older versions).
