    Issues with Javascript?

    I'm currently setting up something for my brother, and using my site for tests and what naught so he can see as well. He lives 12 hours away. Anyways I have aa offline test server and the site works perfectly fine there. But when I upload it it doesn't work right. The list you see there should be a drop down menu, as well as have some CSS with it. But it doesn't. I also don't understand I thought that java was client side. It was working fine till I added the Java scripts.

    EDIT: Found out it's not Javascript but in fact it seems to be my CSS file. any clues?


    Navi css

    Try changing Navigation.css to navigation.css (lowercase).

    HTML Code:
    <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="navigation.css" />
    should be Navigation.css

    Works on Windowz machines, not on *nix machines.

    Lucky the page displays at all. The HTML is horrid.

    Re: Issues with Javascript?

    Step 1.
    One set of html/head/body tags, nested properly.

    HTML Code:
    <html>
<head></head>
<body>

</body>
</html>
    Step 2.
    title, javascript, css links go in the head section
    HTML to display content goes in the body seciton

    HTML Code:
    <html>
<head>
<title>Plageman Insurance</title>

<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="Style.css" />
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="navigation.css" />
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
	function toggle_visibility(id)
		{
		var e = document.getElementById(id);
		if(e.style.display == 'block')
			e.style.display = 'none';
		else
			e.stle.display = 'block';
		}
//-->
</script>


</head>
<body>

HTML for display here

</body>
</html>

    Take a look at "HTML tutorial - The Basics and "Semantics, HTML, XHTML, and Structure" for more of an introduction.

    It's pretty bad, to be honest. Invalid HTML (the particular errors show a deep misunderstanding of HTML), tables for layout... It needs much work, relative to the size of the file.

    Thanks for trying to help, but I don't learn from lectures. I learn from reading code. And it's not as if you'll have to deal w/ my coding if you don't want to. I'm not a web designer, I'm an Beginner Electrical Engineer/Programmer.

    Re: Issues with Javascript?

    The problem with learning from code is it's hard to extract the principles behind it, unless you happen to be Alan Kay.

    As for dealing with other's code, you're right in that I don't have to deal with it directly, but all our pages live in a larger world. We have to design for the search engines and other programs that access our pages and sites, which creates a lowest-common denominator problem for the programs. A big hurdle in creating a truly semantic web is the pages that don't fit into it. This is an instance of a larger problem, that standards are useless when developers don't follow them.

    Remember, a critique of code is not a critique of the code's writer.
