This is what they say on the php.net site on what PHP is: PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML. Hope this helps. |

| 136462 | 2003-04-19 01:38:00 | advice? get rid of frame borders, use noresize or resize=0. Use gifs/jpegs for titles. The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) will do the job and its free :D Your getting there mate, just keep hacking at it. I started HTML when i was 12 (im 15) and i've made serveral sites for clans and businesses (www.houselifting.co.nz - my latest). You'll get better over time. |

Dylan is right, it does get easy when writing html. I also build website as well :) http://stuartw.orcon.net.nz Not bad site Dylan :) Also if you still do this one you have flinched school (as a careered)(like I have, you will be ably to make a lot of money.) or even now if you find your own work or work with a website design /deployment company you could make a few $$$. |

| 136464 | 2003-04-19 03:31:00 | I have decided to make a form for comments and posting your own rant. having an open posting system will make for some problems of flaming and offencive posting. as for frames?? I have decided to stick with frames for now but remove the borders. |

| 136465 | 2003-04-19 03:57:00 | Remember - if your site is only a half dozen pages or so, and you're hand-coding, then any chunk of code, eg the table that has your menus in it, can simply be copied and pasted to each page when you need to update it. But generally your menu links in the table won't be changing all that much, so there's little disadvantage in using a table instead of the frame. On this (http://www.kiwiflorists.co.nz) site I've put my page links on the top, within a table, and If later I need to add a new page to the site, then I do it just once, and copy and paste the table into each other page. Having said that, I also use Dreamweaver, and it makes changing things like a menu bar in a whole site a doddle; although I'd only really use that function if I had a site with upwards of 20 pages. |

| 136466 | 2003-04-19 04:08:00 | I can see how that would be good for only a few pages with only a few changes but i hope to be changing the nav section of the site almost every day as i add new content. the site will become lots of pages and it would be very hard to update all of them by hand. the other donw side to having the nav on each page is that it will use lots more disk space. | robsonde (120) | ||
| 136467 | 2003-04-19 04:14:00 | Agree that it will become a bit more tedious the more pages you have, specially if you change the nav section frequently. But... from a design perspective, wouldn't a bit of consistency in the nav be better? Also, that's where high end editors come into their own, as they take the slog out of it for you. Re using much more disc space, I have to disagree on that one - the tiny bit of html links on each page should be negligable, unless you use roll-over images. Also, the advantage in terms of site size, is that each frame is an entire page on it's own, which I should imagine will take more time to load and use more space, than a repeated table on each page. |

| 136468 | 2003-04-19 04:18:00 | Just checked - on the site url I gave earlier - the maximum file size of any page there is only 4 - 7KB, excluding the images. Not enough to make a dent into any server's disc space allocation, free or otherwise. | Greg S (201) | ||
