Html Tutorial Links


Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone!

I think this will be a very popular forum here at Besttechie.net, so for a really quick reference guide, I am going to repost all the guidance/tutorial links from the posts into a pinned thread.

I will add links as they are added into the thread. Here's what we have so far:

First thing you'll need is a Text Editor and I strongly suggest NoteTab Lite(free) or Pro(paid). I have this editor and have it replacing MS Notepad as the default editor.

w3schools.com

HTML test lab Site to test your coding.

Here's a couple that I use quite frequently.

If you look at the nav bar to the left of the page (there at Webmonkey) you'll see the others as well. The Color code cheatsheet is also a must.

Simple tips for your website. :mellow:

To Kill Angelfire Banner Ads

Add:

<!---<script>window.onerror=new Function("return true")</script>--->

Between the stop head & start body tags.

Choose "Popup" Ad & Not The On-Page Ad...

Angelfire will delete your site for using this code.

You Can Add color="whatever" To The HR Tag

As Well As Width & Size Tags

Size "1" Will Give You A Horizontal Rule (LINE) 1 Pixel In Height

PAGE TRANSITION EFFECTS (IE 4+ only)

How would you like to welcome visitors to your pages with awesome transition effects that grab their attention?

You can do this by using special Meta Tags in the Head portion of your page.

This is super cool and super easy to implement.

Here's what you have to do.

Just insert the code as shown within the Head section of your page.

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Page-Enter"

CONTENT = "RevealTrans (Duration=4, Transition=23)">

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Page-Exit"

CONTENT = "RevealTrans (Duration=4, Transition=23)">

"Duration" is the amount of time in seconds for the effect to take place.

The default and minimum value is 4.

"Transition" is the actual effect, displayed as a number value between 1 and 23.

(A list of all available effects is shown below.)

The effect shown here (23) is a random configuration of all effects.

You can choose them separately of course.

You can use these to create effects on either page entry or exit.

Play around with them and have some fun.

Remember, though,they only work with IE 4 or better (which is 75% of all users).

Here's the list of Transition types and their associated numeric values:

* Box in = 0

* Box out = 1

* Circle in = 2

* Circle out = 3

* Wipe up = 4

* Wipe down = 5

* Wipe right = 6

* Wipe left = 7

* Vertical blinds = 8

* Horizontal blinds = 9

* Checkerboard across = 10

* Checkerboard down = 11

* Random dissolve = 12

* Split vertical in = 13

* Split vertical out = 14

* Split horizontal in = 15

* Split horizontal out = 16

* Strips left down = 17

* Strips left up = 18

* Strips right down = 19

* Strips right up =20

* Random bars horizontal = 21

* Random bars vertical = 22

* Random = 23

Make sure Transitions are enabled in Advanced Internet Options to see them.
