    That depends on what fonts are installed on the visitors OS.

    What I meen is can I just type ny Font Style I want in like Script or what is the deal???

    Web designers usually list two or three, like so:

    Code: [Select]
    <div style="font-family:verdana, courier, impact;">

    The browser first searches on the system for the first one, if it can't find it, it then goes to the next one, and so on. You can list as many as you like, depending on your audience, but just list your more preferable one first and then in decreasing order of preference. :)

      I know if I want to put the Times New Roman Font on a Web Page I use this code.

      <FONT SIZE="4" FACE="TIMES NEW ROMAN">

      Now if my Visiter does not have this Font on there computer I know I can give another Font to pick from.

      So if I want there Browser to pick from two Fonts say Times New Roman   and Arile would I do this.

      <FONT SIZE="4" FACE
      ????????="TIMES NEW ROMAN, Arile">

      Exactly. Just seperate them using a comma (,).

        I need help with an  HTML Code that I am useing to make a Table.

        I would like it to have Two Cells right underneeth one another and then One Cell to the Right.

        And it works but one thing.
        What ever I put in the Cell to the  Right will only line up with the Cell to the Left of it on the Bottum.

        You can see how the Cell on the Right TUGS on the Cell to the Bottum Left.

        Why wont they be even???

        <TABLE BORDER="5" cellspacing="5">
        <TR>

        <TD width="320" hight="75">
        <CENTER>
        <a href="index.html"><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">
        Click here to go back to the Home Page.
        </FONT>
        </CENTER>
        [/url]
        </TD>
        </TR>

        <TR>
        <TD width="320" hight="75">
        <CENTR>
        <a href="Resume.html"><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">
        Click here to go to the Atist Resume Page.
        </FONT>
        </CENTER>
        [/url]
        </TD>


        <TD width="320" hight="75">
        <CENTER><IMG SRC="lips.GIF" HIGHT=120 WIDTH=120 BORDER=0></CENTER>
        </TD>
        </TR>
        </TABLE>

          OK I am still trying to get my Code right.

          If I want to have a Table and have a list of Cells one on top of the other on the Left hand side and one Cell on the Right hand side I can do that.

          But the Bottum Right Cell always line up with the Bottum Left hand side.

          I would like te Text or Image or whatever I put in the Right hand Cell to be Centered and not force the Bottum Left hand Cell to line up with it.

          I saw some topics on this and they show you what it looks like  but they don't tell you how to do it.

          Could you draw the type of table you want with Paint or some other editor? It's hard to tell you the code when it is just explained in words.

          Is this what you want?

          Code: [Select]
          <table border="1">
            <tr>
              <td>Hello!</td>
              <td>Hello!</td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
              <td>Hello!</td>
              <td>Hello!</td>
            </tr>
          </table>

              I do have one thing to ask about puting images on Web Pages?

              When you put an Image on a web page I know you ad Hight and Width code  I get this and it works.

              But I tryed something and I wanted to know if it was a flook or if this is a faster way to resize images you put on web pages.

              One way is to ad you photo and use Width and Hight code to resize the photo but it takes some time for you to get it the right size.

              Then I did this

              If you just use eather the Hight code by itself  or the  Width code by Itself  the browers  ajusts the other in proportion.


              Is this a flook or is this a good way to do this???

                This is fine to do. It won't really increase loading times at all.

                  Factories? ;D

                  If the image file is over 200kb, then you might want to resize it before uploading.

                    This is what I ment.

                    If I put an Image on a web page and use both  Width and Hight code to ajust my image  for me it may take some time to get the corect Hight and Width.

                    But if I just put down the Hight code  without  putting don the Width code  the Broswer seems to  auto ajust the Width in Proportion on screen.

                    I am not talking about Loading faster I just ment I can just put down Hight code and let the Browser auto ajust the Width.

                    It did it but I wanted to know if it is sapost to work like this to  or if it just was a Flook for me???

                      But what if I don't worry about how big the Table is but I want to make every Cell so many Pixels wide.

                      How would I do this???

                                      I would try what he had posted, wasnt able to get on due to complications and the fact that I forgot about it.  If you google around you'll probably find it, this stuff isnt all that hard.

                                        The about E Mail Form code did not work and it did not display right.

                                        Do I have to use CGi Script to get the E Mail Form to work?

                                        And is it hard to get down pat???

                                          Now I am looking all over google for Documention on how to create EMail scripts.

                                          I would like to know how to create an e mail form.
                                          But I am just getting a lot of Cut this and Past this and it does not work or tell me how it works.

                                              I just tryed to create a script

                                              <?php
                                              $email = $_request{'email'} ;
                                              $message = $_request{'message'} ;

                                              mail{ "[email protected]", "feedback form results",
                                              $message, "form: $email" };
                                              header{ "location: http://www.robertsargallery.com/thankyou.html" };
                                              ?>

                                              And I saved it as
                                              sendemail.php

                                              And I put it in my CGi Bin  and I was about to put a Form on my Page but when I clicked Submit nothing happened.

                                              Every Web Site I go to has one on these Forms that you can type your Camment or Q/A and you Click Submit.

                                              Is it really this hard or is it that I am not readding the correct Documentioj???

                                              Try this:

                                              Code: [Select]
                                              <?php
                                              $email 
                                              $_REQUEST['email'] ;
                                              $message $_REQUEST['message'] ;

                                              mail("[email protected]""feedback form results",
                                              $message"from: $email");
                                              header("Location: http://www.robertsargallery.com/thankyou.html");
                                              ?>


                                              You just used the wrong brackets....... ;)

                                                Thank you now can you give me the correct Form Code that I will put inbetween the BODY Tags??

                                                You know the code that has the Text Box and Submit Botton.
