It's best not to try and adapt your site dynamically to suit the user's screen. Set specific dimensions and stick with them. Seeing as most peoples' monitors these days are about 1280x1024, most sites have a width of about 800-1000 pixels. Obviously with time that average will grow...

Think of it as a translator, or an interpreter.

Internet Explorer has supported JavaScript for quite some time. Yes.

Web 2.0 really only refers to content. How websites are designed for web 2.0 content shouldn't really be any different. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2.0

My thanks.

I'm trying to write a simple function that takes a set of numbers from table cells (ie. <td>5</td>) and adds them together. I can't figure out how to change the number from string form to numeric. Is there a toAlpha function or something similar?

For very small scripts with only a couple lines, there's no harm in just including it in the head element of the page, especially if it is only going to be used on that page. However, if the script is large, it is appropriate to create a separate .js file and link it. Either way is fine, but I...

The way I see it, you can either replicate the text in image form, create symbols to represent the link content or a combination of both. A good concept to try is to create very simple icons that are displayed as normal. When the user moves the mouse over them, the icon is replaced with an...

I don't quite understand the question. Do you mean how should you design the images so that the user will assume it's a link?

Honestly, it's so much easier to just use an image. The text is still in the footer, and there is the description meta tag. However, if you do still want to use text, try using px sizes rather than pt. Some browsers have different interpretations of how big different pts are meant to be, so...

Yeah, it might seem easy enough to edit each individual head element, but sooner or later you will realize that you want to make changes to a single element that requires you to go and change all instances of that style. Creating a separate CSS file and linking it is by far the better...

Something like that should be easy to achieve using some JavaScript. I'll see if I can make a rough concept later (if only for my own practice). If you want to learn web design, the best place to start is W3Schools. I've never heard of KompoZer, but anyone will tell you to go with Dreamweaver.

What's the point of having three divs next to each other when you can just use a table? It just binds them together without the risk of conflicting elements.

Obviously shorter names are easier for the user to remember and type in, but you don't want them to be so short that you can't easily recognize what the site is for. For example, don't use abbreviations, unless the company is known by that abbreviation.

Well I was going to say throw them in a table, but you've already done that. You might just want to align the left image to the right. About the image map, don't put the <map> tag in a separate table cell. You can just put it in the same cell as the image you are mapping.

I think the best way would be to stack divs on top of each other as the horizontal sections, and then within the middle section, have a table with however many columns you want. Here is a rough layout in HTML: <div id="wrap"> <div id="header"></div> <div id="body1">...

This is done from your web host control panel, if it supports it.

You will have to create two images, one normal and one for when it's highlighted. The best way to do this is the create a single image with the two logos stacked on top of each other. Then set that image as the background for a div or table cell or whatever, and in the CSS set the hover...

Maybe there should be a sticky for FAQs like this. Just simple things like FTP clients, web and graphic design software, etc.

Try this. Mess around with the divs to add or remove menus, and obviously change the CSS to suit your needs. <ul id="sddm"> <li> <a href="">Home</a> </li> <li> <a href="">News</a> </li> <li> <a href="" onmouseover="mopen('m1')"...
