    Hey, I know I posted one about wanting to be staff but I was told I couldn't do that so i will settle for making a site with a bunch of smart and active people, lolz. Just tell me what you can do! I hope i'm not breaking another rule by doing this @.@
     
    php. html. htmlkit.com is a good start.
     
    Uh... *blink*

    What do you want to make the site about...? Do you know how to code...?

    The best person to work with initially is yourself. Unless you were lucky, like me :D
    I'd recommend HTML too. It's the basic thing to know. After that you may want to try out Java, PHP etc. Take it one at a time.
    I learned HTML from lisaexplains.com, but now that it has a lot of pop-ups...X_X
     
    umm.. I already know that stuff which is why I'm ready to make a site now. I'd like to make a pokemon site, about the game and show and stuff. Yes, I do know how to code, I code my own iframes layouts.

    It's best to stay away from iFrames; frames altogether in fact. They can wrok very differently that what think they would do in different resoultions. For example, I'm using a resolution of 1400 by 1050 pixels on my computer, and some sites with frames look really strange. If you use frames of a certain percentage width (You could specify a width in pexels, but then there has to be another frame that takes up the rest of the page and/or the layout is not centered properly.), it can make the layout seem out of place. Even if you know little or nothing of PHP, it's best to use the include procedure for your layouts.
     
    when i was taught how to code iframes, the iframes code itself is contained in a div code so it looks like this

    <div style="position:absolute;left:250;top:425;width:550;height:1500;overflow:auto">
    <iframe src="home.html" name="frame" width="100%" height="1500">
    Sorry, your browser doesn't support iframes.
    </iframe>

    </div>
     
    That method is all right, but you also pointed out another one of iFrame's flaws: some browsers can't recognise iFrame code.

    Still, you seem as though you're capable enough to code.
     
    iFrames are evil.... I don't use them at all... I only use tables.... =p... and eye candy. ^_^
     
    i use iframes because i hate it when you have to retype the whole code over again, including the whole navigation bar and stuff. I havn't discovered another way to get by that. I havn't been coding for long, but I have lots of practise with neopets guild layouts and stuff.

    That's where PHP comes in. You could use ASP files, as well; or you could even code JSP files.

    Use the width and height commands.

    Code: 
    <textarea width="50" height="20">My text here</textarea>

    I think it's in columns rather than pixels, but I'm not sure. You'll have to experiment with the numbers.

    why on earth did you poke miss kaizer?
     
    thanks everybody! You've been a great help! lolz:D
     
    freewebs = t3h suck.

    *sees PJ's thing* I feel loved! :D
     
    use an html editor to make a set point of your page... *dies*

    If a browser can do overflow styles, it can definitely do iframes... But, it's not the other way around... Both now complies to W3C, so it's up to you to use them... be warn that older browsers do not support them.

    btw, hi pichugirl :D
