Hi Gang,
Yes I know it's Easter Sunday and I hope you are all having a good one.
I am trying to get a menu to appear in a certain place on a page and something I am doing is incorrect.
Here is the code and I have marked the spot where I am trying to include the menu.
In case you need more info here are links to the relative documents.
The sample page is at
http://www.lady-gem.com/index-2.html

http://www.lady-gem.com/css/fpro-main.css

http://www.lady-gem.com/css/anylink.css

http://www.lady-gem.com/anylink.js

http://www.lady-gem.com/menu.shtml

<table class="one" align="center" cellspacing="2" border="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<table align="center" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" bgcolor="#ffffff" border="0" width="700">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<table class="three" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" width="700">
<tr>
<td align="center">
<img src="images/truck2.jpg" width="700" height="250" alt="truck2">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" width="700">
<tr>

<td width="700" bgcolor="#FFC96A" align="center">
<table align="center" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#FFC96A" border="0">
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#FFC96A" align="center"></td>
</tr>
</table>
Any help greatly appreciated.

LG

Hm, what do you think you are doing incorrectly?

If http://www.lady-gem.com/index-2.html is the page that you want your menu to be included on, it needs to be http://www.lady-gem.com/index-2.shtml and your menu can be named with the extensions of shtml or html or htm or maybe even inc or txt

Hi Corey,
I saved the html as .shtml but the menu still does not show up. However the word NONE does LOL. So there is still a problem somewhere for the menu not to show up in the spot where the word none now appears. Since I am new to this and only found info on the Internet I need help still.
Thank you for your answer and it did at least make something show up see.

First in your menu.shtml, keep in mind that you only want <body> html. You have the entire web page Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

Since the server parses the file - what code are you using to include menu.shtml into your index-2.shtml file?

Hi Corey,
Well I tried your suggestion and now it looks worse than ever. You can't see anything no images, background, nothing except a perverted version of the menu. Here is what I am using for the include.


This is driving me nuts.

Corey Bryant · Posted: Sun Apr 16, 2006 1:24 pm

You have Code: <style type="text/css">
html {
scrollbar-face-color: #882222;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #000;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #fff;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #888;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #444;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #882222;
scrollbar-track-color: #000;
}
</style>
<style type="text/css">
html {
scrollbar-face-color: #882222;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #000;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #fff;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #888;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #444;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #882222;
scrollbar-track-color: #000;
}
</style> twice also for some reason.

I also see Code: < in your code. Not Code: 

In regards to your images - try using virtual links.

Hi Again Corey,
Yes I had changed it but have changed it back again to

and also the extra html { for the scroll bars is now just one.

This is what I see when I open the page.
http://www.lady-gem.com/my-page.html

and it looks terrible. Yes I have emptyed my cache several times love. I don't know why but I am unable to see the image I have put up for you to look at so you see what I see, all I am seeing is my words saying my page looks like crap LOL. I know the code is correct.

Did you take a screen shot and is that what you are trying to show me? Or are you trying to show me the image is not showing up?

Are you putting all your images in the web root or the images folder?

Hi Corey,
I was trying to show you an image of what I see when I open the index-2.shtml page. None of the images are showing up and yes they are all in an images folder. I see them when I view the page on my computer when I write the code but not once everything is uploaded. For now I am off to bed I have been at this far to long for today and it's given me a monster of a head ache.

Thanx for trying to help me love.

How about this - what would be the correct path to the image? Have you tried typing it into the browser to see what is happening? It seems the path / case is incorrect

Hello Corey,
Here is what I get when I type the url for the image I was trying to show you.
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /images/my-page.jpg on this server.

I am really stumped this time.

Have edited this post myself.
Corey the problem has been fixed love. It was the .htacess file that was causing the problems. Thank you for all your help it is now working just fine.

Corey Bryant · Posted: Mon Apr 17, 2006 8:26 am

Glad to hear it. I work on Windows servers so I tend to forget about the htaccess file. But I knew something had to be wrong - since your code seemed to be correct :)
