Custom navigation Bar and DIV

.... most if not all of the variables (or tags) should be placed between single or double quotes. The only variables that do not need to be placed inside quote marks are the 'true/false'.

I know some people are going to tell me that a script will still work when the quotes are not used, but that is sloppy programming...

Babblecrap !

Code: Select all

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
a= '1.2';
b= '5.4';
a1= a+b;

document.write('Quoted 1.2 + 5.4 = ' + a1 +'<br />'); 

// Results in
// Quoted 1.2 + 5.4 = 1.25.4

Agreed Beteljuice. However it will work for Antonio's code -

Code: Select all

if (temp>0){...}

But in general if using quotes you should explicitly cast the variables...

Code: Select all

var a = "1.2";
var b = "5.4";

var a1 = parseFloat(a) + parseFloat(b);

Unless of course you really want to concatenate the strings.

[beteljuice]

.. concatenate the strings

But Ant is a newbie (if not actually a baby), so such advice is misleading.

Thus far his experience is mainly cut 'n' paste - nothing wrong with that, but this forum has dedicated more than enough time on baby sitting (mods edit if you wish).

I have no problem in helping anyone where I can. I actually teach 80+ year olds how to use a computer for the first time in their lives, so I have a lot of patience.

Although, I do feel sometimes that some of the questions are not really Cumulus web customisation directly related, and maybe should be asked elsewhere. But having said that, the questions are about developing a Cumulus data generated website.

haha i just woke up and read the comments well

the javascrips was 1000% confunisng

and as an above post said i am quiet new to the web industry but that is why i am doing Cert 4 in web design for a year this includes some javascript and i know that scripting can be hard since i used to use Python

i will add the padding on the bottom lines

by the way is there a big time zone difference i seem to only be able to hear from you guys in my 6- 9am and 7pm - 2am

[pacificblue03]

So that worked very well i guess now all i can do is wait for some feedback / suggestions

Antonio how about doing the same (padding) for the two line at the bottom of your page...

haha sorry i am confused are the 2 bottom lines being my

Antonio,

Have you looked in the Wiki?

For guidance, have a look at <#wgustTM> to start.

I still can't believe you thought we were all in Austrailia?

[pacificblue03]

yes Australia




okay where is this wiki?

is on google?

im having trouble adding another row of tables you see under the wind table i put

<tr>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
</tr>

but it makes the cell not filled

Antonio

[Synewave]

Antonio,

Do you really not know what &nbsp; is? Surely your HTML classes may have covered that?

The Wiki, just look at the top of this page you are looking at (have you really not already looked at it at all since having Cumulus installed?)

I need to go to the fridge now for more wine.

[pacificblue03]

yep it is the code for 1 (space)

um okay so new problem now i have made the cells but the are not filled like the rest of the cells?

Antonio.
