The Clear.GIF
Couldn't find it here? Let me know so I can add it.
Saving Graphics
Just right click on the graphic you want and choose save as.
NEVER CHOOSE link to. Its that simple.
Using Graphics
To put a graphic on your page use this code:
(img src="whatever.gif")
Just change the () to <>.
Centering
Just put (center) in front of the image or words, and (/center)
at the end.
don't forget to change () to <>.
Using Backgrounds
To use a background you must change the (BODY BGCOLOR="#000000")
to
(BODY BACKGROUND="whatever.gif") changing whatever.gif to the name of your gif or JPG.
The Clear.GIF
Different browsers have different screen sizes, so backgrounds that look O.K.
on your screen may bunch up on anothers. The bars and buttons will be right on
top of the border. To keep everything straight on every browser you need a clear.gif.
You can download it here.
When you click for the gif, the page will look empty. That's o.kay. Once the
page containing the gif is completely loaded, go to your drop down File menu.
Select Save As and choose location in your hard drive/disk where you will save
the gif. Use your back button to get back here.
Now you will have to put this code on your page. It should follow right behind your
(BODY BACKGROUND="background.jpg" TEXT="#000000" LINK="#006666" VLINK="#006666")
Don't forget to replace the parenthesis ( ) with the angle brakets < >
(TABLE)
(TR)
(TD VALIGN=LEFT ALIGN=TOP)
(IMG SRC="clear.gif" HEIGHT=5 WIDTH=150)
(/TD)
(TD VALIGN=LEFT ALIGN=TOP WIDTH=100%)
After all of your page content put this:
(/td)
(/tr)
(/table)
(/body)
(/html)
The width=150 may need to change depending on what background you use.
The best way
to get that number is to go to the top of the page that the border is on.
At the top of your page click View. Then click view source. You will see the
HTML codes for the page. Just look to see what number was used in that code.
It won't really matter very much unless the border is wider than 150.
(Thats also a great way to see how someone did something neat on their page.)
