What is the code for creating hyperlinks that have no underline or any form of fancy stuff (example: NYLPM)? I have decided that underlines are evil and should be eliminated wherever possible (except on ILX of course). I know how to alter the colors; I just want to get rid of the underlines.

Thanks in advance.

And while we're at it, what's the tag for making writing with a line in it like you've crossed it out? And also flashing text? Scrolling text? All those sexy things I'd love to be able to do but can't?

you'll need to create it with mouseover effects. Which is a lot trickier.

Nick, for crossout words. the tag is (strikeout)word here(/strikeout) except use the greater then and less then symbols.

strike though is just an < s> and < /s>

Are you making a webpage or do you just want to do this on ILX?

Cheers Chris V, you fucking wanker lovely bloke.

I'm so crap.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Thursday, 22 May 2003 11:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Try again.

Cheers Chris V you ~~fucking wanker~~ lovely bloke.

AHA!

The CSS tag is 'text-decoration: blah;' where blah is either 'none', 'underline', 'overline', 'line-through' or 'blink'.

~~wonderful~~

<a href="..." style="text-decoration: none"> should solve the first problem. To do it with less typing, do something like:

near the top of the page.

Here'a a link to my blog as an example.

helloo clever ilxors

Is there any code in HTML that would be able to read the contents of an external .txt file and output the contents on a html page ?

Would this need XML?

― Ste, Monday, 9 June 2008 12:10 (seventeen years ago)

You could embed it in an iframe... just reference the txt file as the src of the iframe and it should display the text. Can't think of any other way you could do it.

other useful attribs = width, height, frameborder (1|0), scrolling (yes|no|auto)

― ledge, Monday, 9 June 2008 12:16 (seventeen years ago)

If Javascript is HTML, you could do this with ajax.

― libcrypt, Monday, 9 June 2008 12:18 (seventeen years ago)

YES that works. cheers Ledge

STEVEN You have now learnt the "IFRAME" command. Learn more commands as the game progresses!

― Ste, Monday, 9 June 2008 12:24 (seventeen years ago)

very soon, try as hard as you can to forget the iframe command and learn to do it right.

― kenan, Monday, 9 June 2008 13:06 (seventeen years ago)

people still use frames? even iframes?

― asey, Monday, 9 June 2008 13:19 (seventeen years ago)

<blink>

― Mr. Goodman, Monday, 9 June 2008 13:27 (seventeen years ago)

ajax no good if the text file is on another domain, and the words sledgehammer and nut come to mind. iframe works, what's the issue? Yes people still use iframes - seen any facebook apps recently?

four years pass...

Why can't I find the image associated with the header of the website in the source code? I see it in the banner and it links to the homepage. I don't really know anything about html yet but I'm trying to grab the image directly.

I copied this because I think this is where it's highlighted:

<h1><a href="/" class="logo">brand name</a></h1>
