I may have mis-represented the situation. There are certain aspects of the site that will require servlets because I will need applets to sustain a connection. Constant refresh via PHP is not an option. However, there are many other aspects, such as forums and the like for which PHP would be...

I would love to get some feedback on a project that I will be starting soon. It's funny, but there is literally nowhere to get an unbiased opinion on this so all I can do is ask for as little bias as possible. The project will absolutely require a few Servlet applications for some pieces...

I have a really odd situation here that I will probably fail to explain correctly, but will try nonetheless. I know that at first blush this question may seem like it is in the wrong forum, but I do believe that the solution here is in the html. I have a page that displays a google map to the...

I'm having a bit of a fixed positioning issue. I am trying to fix a division but it's going all wonky. Here is a basic code template.. html, header etc. <div id="top"> this division is 750x200 </div> <div id="container"> This is a container division for two separate divisions, left and...

I guess this is an extension of a thread from last week, but I learned a great deal from that one so I thought I'd come back to the well one more time. Here's the situation... I have a division, "big", which contains two other divisions "left" and "right", and some content that falls in...

kaht, Thanks for trying. The issue wasn't actually pretty simple. I had linebreaks in the html which caused the script to end abruptly. Once I formatted the html all in one line it clicked right along. As for the script itself, it's part of the google map api, but I've already asked on...

Having an issue creating a custom window for a google map application. The actual problem is with putting text inside the window. Everything works until I try to put some html in there and then it all falls apart. Here's the basic code that actually works.... var point = new...

Ok, so I haven't used javascript since dirt was young and now I'm trying to integrate the Map API into a PHP site. Does anyone know of any good walkthroughs? I've been reading through the API documentation but it leaves me with more questions than answers.

Tremendous help vrag. Thank you very much. I'll fix that right away. I simply had no idea that forms had margins built into them.

Sorry man, then we're just experiencing different realities. Thanks for trying anyway.

Yes, clearly I am retarded if I took you saying "That goes after both the floated ones. Right Left Middle" to mean call the divs in the order of right, then left, then middle. Because if that's what you really meant then it would have worked, but it didn't. I mean seriously, you couldn't...

doing right, left, middle restores the right and left divs to their proper places, but drops the middle down to the next line.

ok, actually got it to work just by closing that <big> tag, but adding the middle division screws the pooch yet again. Good gawd tell me again why this is supposed to be better than just slapping everything into tables? The middle div is only 300px wide so there is plenty of space. When I ad...

what about when I ad the middle one???

Man I hate microsoft! Ok, this should be so simple. One division containing 3 other divisions. The container division is 798px wide. The left division is 162 wide as is the right. I haven't even inserted the middle yet. The left floats left and the right floats right. When I put them up...
