Good point tracknut.
For this tread, my focus is on PHP and XHTML. I can see where different perspectives can complicate the discussion with respect to how different syntactical rules can interact...

Firstly, thanks NogDog for the detailed examples.

I don't think I explained the question well. You're giving me examples of how quotes isolate PHP from other types of code.
I'll try to clarify...

I see, Makes sense tracknut, and NogDog. Thank you!
So the last semicolon really tells php to keep the HTML styles separate from the PHP. Makes sense.

Sometimes I get mixed up with all the...

Thanks NogDog for the links and the detailed examples.
You're right, the versatility really does make it complicated for students. Us new guys are looking for some kind of structure to grab onto. I...

I'm not sure what you mean as far as having meaning in the context? The semicolon I highlighted in red is not displayed when the form is submitted. The output shows as this:

Hello, Name!
The...

Hello. I'm still new to some basic formatting concepts. Something confused me in the book I was reading.

Q:15531
when you have CSS style rules embedded in an PHP string, is the semicolon (that...

EDIT - Working

My apologies
After validating the doc, I realized I did not add the styling inside the head element. What a foolish mistake.
That darn Validater helped out again! I should have...

By the way, here is a screenshot of what I'm seeing when i load the page in my browser.
Everything is fine, except when I hover over the star, I don't get the yellow image popping up in the frame...

Getting an image to pop up at another location on hover over

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong, I've followed everything on this sample page from my book with the exception that I'm not...

I see, Could be a bug. Because I just tested and all the fonts work.
I found that I was able to just drag each font out of the windows-font's folder and it forced the page to use the alternate fonts...

I'm not sure why this is happening or if it means anything is wrong.
But when ever I add an alternative font without quotes, it shows as bold in Nodpad++
I'm pretty sure you have to enclose font...

Thanks again Flack.
I've actually put SQL off to the side for the moment to focus on CSS and PHP. But that's good to know. After you mentioned that the other night, I ran though the security section...

Good tip, Thank you Flack
I do recall recently reading about changing an element with display, but didn't understand the books explanation for what it was used for.
However, it makes perfect sense...

Thank you Jeff for the direct and precise explanation.
I should probably put some time into reading the specs. I was kind of hesitant on reading any WC3's explanations at this point. I find many...

I passed the validation by adding P tags around the links. But I don't understand why they were needed.
I think links are inline elements, and I know you can't add block level elements to inline,...

I attached a screenshot for simplicity.
This screenshot is less compressed than the attachment: here:

I'm not sure what this error is telling me. This code was taken right from the HTML, XHTML &...

No, because you can’t specify transparency values with a 256 pallet to my knowledge. A Gif will only let you mask out a color, it's all or nothing. But if you wanted say 50, or maby 40% see-through,...

Hmm, that’s interesting. :confused:

Btw, at this time I’ve been using Dreamweaver 8 and there is a default option called Use CSS instead of HTML tags which is checked all the time. anyway, I know...

Ok, I just picked up the 6th addition of Elizabeth Castro's HTML, XHTML & CSS. I'm reading it now!

I see, thank you Centauri

Thats too bad though, I wanted to use them for that but I guess I'll have to do something else.

yes, it doses have a few sectons on CSS but I'm not sure how in depth yet.

Thanks for that link sticks464!

Holy cow, is this the book your refering to? :eek:

I have this book sitting in front of me right now, I've had it in my closet for 5 years now but I got...

Hello David, first thanks

Now, I got some good info from what you said, being that you can make your own class names for custom classes, are there standard classes for doing the more common...

Hi,
I’m just now reading that there was a compatibility issue in previous versions of Internet Explore prior to version 7 when using .png images for transparency. But supposedly you can enter code...
