Embedded BlanksProper syntax is imperative to HTML to be interpreted by the browser as intended. If, when viewing a page that you create, it appears as if an element is missing, this is the first thing to check for. All HTML tags require that the characters in a name be continuous. You can't add extra blanks within a tag or its surrounding markup without causing the browser to ignore the tag (which is what browsers do with tags they can't recognize). Here's an example; This requirement means that </BODY> is a valid closing tag for a document body, but that none of the following are legal: < /BODY> </ BODY> </B ODY> </BO DY> </BOD Y> </BODY > You get the idea. Don't use blanks inside tags, except to deliberately seperate a tag name from an attribute name. Center <CENTER> ... </CENTER>
Head <HEAD> ... </HEAD>

Compress Your GraphicsUsing graphic images on your webpage enhances the user's experience and makes plain pages pleasing to the eye. However, the average surfer will wait no more than 25 seconds for a page to load, even when the slowdown is caused by their connection, not your page. To make sure that your page loads fast enough to keep the surfer and still allow a great amount of freedom to use the graphics you want, I highly recommend the use of a graphic compression tool. This tool will compress your .gif or .jpg files without sacrificing much in the way of image quality. Close window linkOpening a pop-up window to provide visitors with extra information or help adds credibility to a website. Visitors like the fact that they don't have to wait for an entire page to load (although they really are!) and they also don't have to lose their place on the page they're on. A simple link on the page that opens in the pop-up will allow the user to close the window and return to the page they were viewing. Here's the code: Close window Control Position with a Single PixelHave you ever wanted more control over where your graphics appear on the page? HTML provides adequate formatting for most people and websites. However, if you're like me, it's not enough. This simple trick will provide you with pixel level control of the placement of images (although you can also use it for text, tables, etc.). The first step is to create a 1 pixel by 1 pixel gif image (transparent background works best, or make several different colored gifs) with your favorite software. Next, just use the image in your code expanding its width (and/or height) to meet your needs. |
