Hide content

[monky91]

I have a site and the index.php is full of words, but now I just want it to show : Site under construction....

How to hide the other contents? Using what html code?

Actually, it is not a must to use html code, if you know how to let those members view "under construction " word and hide the other content using javascript or php, it can do too.

Thanks

you could just wrap your other text in <?php and ?>, that's probably the simplest thing to do, just put those tags around all the text that you don't want to be viewed

Or possibly put a <div></div> around the text with the CSS property "display"

<div style="display: none;">
Your whole bunch of plenty of text.
</div>

Don't worry, this will work in a HTML-based page.

Hope this helps!

i guess that would work too then...lol sorry i ain't familiar with CSS

Yeah, that's no problem...CSS is very easy to pick up...you'll have in under wraps in no-time!!

It's just if you wrap the chunk of text in "<?php" and "?>" tags, you will get errors, especially if it's a PHP-format page, if it's a HTML-format page...I believe it'll most likely print out all the text regardless, because it won't recognise the PHP opening/closing tags.

OYu could always use the trusty HTML comment tags

It's funny how one sometimes forgets the basics...;)

"How to hide contents within a HTML page"
In summary:

CSS

<div style="display: none;">
Your whole bunch of plenty of text.
</div>

HTML

<!-- Your whole bunch of plenty of text. -->

If the page was in PHP format:

/* Your whole bunch of plenty of text.
(Multiple Lines) */

or

// Your whole bunch of plenty of text. (Single Line)

Hope this all helps!
