Just re - uploaded HTML Editor (because I had to replace harddrive and motherboard in my computer) and I am trying to find and replace some text. And it is just not working. It is not working just in the document and t is not working in All Open Documents

Also - I notice this version has the page tabs at the top. Where is the Preview tab - so i can see what it will look like on line?

Thanks

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Thanks,
Hey - once last question. Under your HTML faq's it mentions how to get a favicon. Nice. Yet then it talks about loading it with VSD. I don't have VSD, i use your HTML Editor.
My pages have a Menu and then particular page and a footer. where would i put the favicon coding - in the Menu or in the main page? and where in the page would i put it.

i tried to make it work here

but i don't see it.
It is in BOTH the menu and the page.

You have it working, sometimes it just takes restarting the browser and sometimes restarting your computer before it will show to you. I see the hart on the browser tab though, looks good :)

Don't expect it to show in the URL bar in some browsers though as some browsers have removed that feature to stop hackers from mimicking secure websites. Good job! ;)

cool. congrats on the grandmaness.

So - should i have the favicon in just the menu - or does it need to be on each page?

Not sure what you mean by the menu, it should be listed on the Home index.html page and that's really the only one you "need" to list it on. You can add it to each page though if you want to, doesn't hurt anything to have it there, and this way if you decide to make a new site and use one of the other pages as a base you'll have it already in place too. :)

by 'menu' i mean Header. The one 'page' that sits above each page - with my logo and menu links in it.

Ohhhhh that's nasty! I would suggest you check your page out as you really are not supposed to use multiple pages within pages, very messy situation.

1 set of page codes per page, you don't put a page on top of a page you put the code of that part within the same page it goes in. Not sure where you got that idea to do multiple pages within one page, but definitely not a good idea nor standard practice for websites.

Having said that, it goes into the index.html page once you have that all cleaned up. Look into getting outside of that multiple pages within a page situation you're in and set it up correctly so it's all one set of html documents.

wow that's quite a mess you got there lol, sorry no offense meant, just haven't seen anyone do that unless they were programming a CMS (which isn't supposed to really do that either unless your name is Prism *winks at Prism*) :P

Here's what I find when I try to validate your pages, definitely not good:

The CSS finds only 1 error which is most likely because it can't figure out what belongs where on your page:

hmm.

i think it is not actually 'a page within a page', it is the code for the page

so in my index page (and other pages) we have
<tr>
<td align="center" class="menu"><?php include ("menu.php");?></td>
</tr>

which brings the 'menu' page into the pages. i think this is ok.

I am planning on having the whole site redone - as i need much more professional shopping cart (promo codes. etc - HEY when is CC going to give us that) and also an affiliate program so people can profit when they put a link on their site. etc.

What i do need to do right away is to stop using Javescript for my menu - i need to change that toa CSS. I think i can do that with your HTML Editor(?)

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
