HTML
« on: July 18, 2009, 12:27:13 am »
So I just dipped my nose into HTML and decided to get a site on the web because that made me feel cool! ;D lawl

Anyway I used Free  Websites and it gave me a pretty shweet setup, while I was fiddling with my site I was making a <a href="blah"> tag and forgot the last ". The consequences were that I was able to mess with the banner on the bottom as you can see (as you can see I used <p style=" insted):

My question is: Will I get in trouble for this?

If you forget one syntax sign the Blah will stand for the website in one "grammatical term" with the rest. That may cause errors so I don´t know if you get trouble with it since you can edit what you´ve written.

If your hosting company knows what they're doing and is serious, then that'll piss them the hell off.

Fix the syntax errors. That'll lessen their anger and the likelihood of browsers rendering everything incorrectly and fugly'ly.

When you're doing HTML, what you have to watch out for the most is missing quotes and end tags, as they'll screw you over the most.


edit: wait. You're intentionally hiding their credit. That'll piss them off even more than careless mistakes, and may even lead to them kicking you off.

Just check their terms of service.  If it says, "Users must leave a link to our site in the bottom of each HTML page," you'd better do it.  That sort of thing varies from site to site, though.

Only anime shows I've felt any interest in over the years are Pokemon (original TV series) and various hentai.
so clearly jgrp is a goddamn anime connoisseur. his opinion might as well be law here.

Yeah, with the <p style=" I got rid of the hyperlink and with the <a style="color:green> I changed the text to the same color as the background. I'm guessing I can 'override' the size of the font with CSS and make it 1px....that'd be fun. But yeah, it's only possible because they were nice enough to give me one tiny Hyperlink...so I feel like a bit of an asshole :P

That's there because it was intended to close my own <html> tag which is higher up (obviously :P) then they added another one and I don't have the knowledge to say why...hehe

... If you're learning the basics, why not just use Notepad, save it as an HTML file, and open that file using IE / Firefox? You can then upload said file to one of the many websites out there designed specifically for site hosting and it will become a web page.

There can only be one <html> </html>... I don't know what would happen if you added two.

The browser would try its best at ignoring your fuck up.

That's not it. He's deliberately using synax errors to hide where it mentions his host.

So why not just get a host that is strictly for file uploading and doesn't inject its advertisements into your pages? I remember having one of those several years ago.

precisely and precisely...and I'm really not truly concerned about the add being there it was just sort of an experiment that started with a mistake that I found very interesting...

Yes, I'm sure he is...except he's not in a grave...or am I wrong

Here 'tis should you want to take a look. I changed the font so it's size 1px now...it's right below the "Please come again!"
