Re: [WSG] Triggering POSTs with links?

I put together a box that expands to accommodate larger text in

(see the box to the right)
First problematic translation:
http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-css-charset.fr.php#endlinks
I want the text "Send us a comment" to look like a link, but trigger
a POST, so I put the text in a submit button and styled it.
Unfortunately the longer translations won't wrap that way.
Richard,
Another method is to create a transparent button image and place it
on top of the text (i.e. in a layer between the text and the viewer),
something like this:
Envoyez-nous un commentaire
name="sendcomment" />
/* make all three elements the same size & resizable */
div,
div p,
div input
{
font-size: 1em;
width: 10em;
height: 3em;
}
/* the div constrains the text & button */
div
{
position: relative;
}
/* superimpose the text & button within the div */
div p,
div input
{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
margin: 0;
}

Re: [WSG] Table Problem
Thanks Nick, but no i am not a pure beginner. I only posted that up as a template. That is not my actual page I just copied that to a newly made page so i can fix that error. Dont worry.. if you want, by the time i am done, i can show everything to you. lol :) Thanks again, but you did help me out.. how dumb was i... i copied that from an old one i made a while ago On 6/25/07, Nick Gleitzman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: On 26 Jun 2007, at 8:45 AM, Olajide Olaolorun wrote: > Can some help me with this problem: > http://www.olajideolaolorun.com/problem.html > > Its right when i view it in Firefox, but in IE, its problematic.

Your code contains this: Name: Note that the containing the has no ' align="left" ', as the containing the text does. I think adding this will improve your layout. BUT - your code has many errors. You should validate it before posting a request for help here, as many simple problems can be solved by validating your code: you can't, for instance, use with a XHTML Doctype. Must be lower case. Your use of inline tags, non-breaking spaces, and some would say the table for layout at all, goes against the whole ethic of Web Standards. All your presentational instructions should be handled by css, either in the of your file, or called from an external stylesheet. With respect, it looks like you're a beginner, or at least a novice, with HTML. If this is the case, I suggest you use a HTML4 Doctype (or no doctype at all), and leave XHTML until you know a bit more about what you're doing...

Re: [WSG] Table Problem
You have to give your table a width (ie 500px or whatever), and make sure you align it left. I notice you arent using css... generally tables are only used for results and data, have a look at using css to layout your pages :) Olajide Olaolorun <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Can some help me with this problem: > http://www.olajideolaolorun.com/problem.html > > Its right when i view it in Firefox, but in IE, its problematic.
