    Vertical alignment.. but not they *normal* type!

    Hi all, I wish to display some text up the side of a webpage, ie: you'd need to pivot your head 90 degrees to the side to read it *flat*. I'm SURE I saw this done on a site before, and even looked at the CSS they used to achieve it... but now I can't find the example, and Google isn't helping...

    JS read contents of another frame?

    I have a page where an IFrame opens up with some searched-for content (after form submission). What I'd like to do is search through that page for certain information, and capture it into a variable or object. Is this possible? thanks, Pete

    My script is too long - how can I reduce with Arrays + Document.Write?

    I am creating a page which is a Problem Solving Guide. http://www.it-forums.org/pete/ozone/index.htm but my code is HUGE due to the hidden div's. Can I reduce this by putting all the data into an array and document.write in a loop? (I think I can, but I don't know how!) many thanks, Pete

    Adjust forms checkbox padding?

    Hi, I have a page (that people here helped me develop!) which contains rows and rows (and rows) of checkboxes in table cells. I'd like to fit more onto my page, and would therefore like to reduce the space around the checkboxes. I've made sure I've got cellpadding and cellspacing both...

    &lt;radio&gt; - pass default value?

    I have a form that's getting sent to a database. The part I'm working on just now is for a few yes/no options... basically, they dot one of them for &quot;pass&quot;, the other for &quot;fail&quot;. I think I've been clever though and set their values as &quot;red&quot; and &quot;green&quot...
