I am getting this error when validating my home page:

Attribute “BORDER” is not a valid attribute. Did you mean “border”?

I am not sure how to fix this and would appreciate some help. The line of code cuasing the error is:

The line of code the error is on is:

This is one of the current version of the W3C validator’s “helpful” error messages, which simply aren’t helpful when trying to validate HTML4.

I think it’s because you’ve set a border for an
, which is not a valid attribute for that element (see Forms in HTML documents). Try using CSS like style=”border:0;” instead of border=”0″. Likely, you will also need to remove the “alt” attribute.

The validator serves the same error message when validating HTML or XHTML, however the the Did you mean “border” message is only relevant in XHTML. The WDG validator is an alternative that is worth trying.

I’m writing a small accounting program for myself with PHP and web base .

in many sections I opened a popup window, now I want to disable the parent window when a popup window is enable .

how can I do this?

Suggestion:

Essentially, you can’t, although there are many methods to do something that has this effect, it’s a bad idea on so many levels I don’t know where to start.

If you insist, look into the Javascript methods of focus(); basically if your pop-up is open and they return to the main window, you force focus to the pop up.

for the past few months I’ve not been able to use the sites
www.google.com
www.wikipedia.com
www.youtube.com

on any web browser, Mozilla and IE being the most common that I use. No other site seems to be affected. I can view them through various proxy sites, but the reduction in speed is quite a problem, particularly with youtube.Whenever I do try to access these sites I receive a Failed connection message saying (among other things) “Though the site seems valid, the browser was unable to establish a connection.”

So far the only attempts I’ve made towards repair are a Norton Antivirus scan, an AVG scan and a Symantec Qhost removal which came up with nothing.

Does any have any advice on what I could do to fix this without reformatting my hard drive?

Suggestions and solutions:

- check your internet security levels, particularly in IE as it also affects FF. Reset to MEDIUM and make sure you have checked your blocked sites to see if by accident these sites were marked bad.

- It might be worth checking the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) setting on your machine. Not sure why this can effect some sites and not others - but it certainly seems to. A friend was recently unable to access hotmail.com until changing the MTU (machine / router)!

- Tedster- the problem is with all browsers. Chris R- How do I check the host file? Tangor- The internet security levels seem to be fine they are at medium and there are no blocked sites listed. Penders- I’m not sure how to check the MTU. I’ll add a little more information. I live in a dormitory so I don’t have direct access to a router but my roommate is able to go to all of the sites that I can’t reach.
Also when I attempt to load one of these pages it shows it as done on the the bar below the screen (that one that shows where a link leads to).

- Hosts file is located /windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts (no extension) Edit with NOTEPAD. Should have instructions at top of file.

- Link between IE and FF security was revealed some months back during an IE 7 security update. IE fixed it…broke something in IE AND FF for some sites… and IE was “fixed” again (quickly). Whether that condition (link to system layer security) still exists I do not know…but it doesn’t hurt to check both when these things happen.

hi i am new to html,

is it possible to replace asp pages in a website with html forms and html forms connected to database…?
Are you asking if you can, for example, rename test.asp to test.html and have it work exactly the same?
Yes and no. You can, but you’ll need to configure your web server to use the ASP engine to parse .html files. Before the explanation, I just want to make sure I’m not going down the wrong explanation trail…
Then you’ll need to configure your web server to parse .html pages like .asp pages.

So posting in the Microsoft IIS Web Server and ASP.NET will most likely get better answers. Another issue is exactly WHY do you need to do this? (I can think of some reasons, but just wanted to find out why you need to (or think you need to) so it.
Often, the best solution to a problem is realizing you don’t have a problem in the first place. the asp pages are old..! the new html pages are better looking so I just replace them with the same functionality as the asp pages….without affecting the database as the site is live
