[13:00] <stonez> Anyone know how to parse RSS on a homepage using javascript?
[13:00] <stonez> i thought it could be done with <script src=""></script>
[13:00] <stonez> but that doesn't seem to work
[13:06] <ork> I am trying to use an e-mail encrypter located here --> http://www.dynamicdr
[13:07] <ork> Where do I paste this thing so that it works correctly?
[13:16] <ork> Anyone home?
[13:18] <stonez> have no idea
[13:18] <stonez> why not use hushmail or freenigma?
[13:19] <ork> I think a scrambler or a captcha is what I need. Isn't hush mail just a networ

[13:33] <freakmod> hello
[13:33] <freakmod> i'm trying to get my head around the structure of HTML tables
[13:33] <freakmod> is it possible to have a <tr> row inside of <td></td> ?
[13:33] <freakmod> or is that pointless ?
[13:33] <ork> yes
[13:34] <freakmod> hmm i see
[13:34] <freakmod> is it against standards?
[13:34] <ork> no
[13:34] <ork> What are you trying to do with this?
[13:34] <freakmod> all the HTML tutorials i see, don't have <tr> inside of <td> '
[13:35] <freakmod> i'm trying to write an HTML table parser... and am trying to figure out th
[13:39] <ork> Well I am looking at Element K, Level 2 and they only show /td nested within /t
[13:39] <freakmod> i see
[13:39] <freakmod> so maybe there are no further nests at all
[13:39] <ork> I may have been wrong on this point. I don't find a table row tested within ta
[13:40] <freakmod> ok
[13:40] <freakmod> thanks for looking
[13:40] <freakmod> i dont really see a sense in nesting it i guess
[13:40] <freakmod> one would put a new table inside the cell for that
[13:50] <ork> Well I have taken a look at Freenigma. It supports Firefox, and various web ba
[13:58] <stonez> I don't think it will work
[13:58] <stonez> PGP will

[14:15] <afab> Why do 50 people sit here and not help anyone? I don't get it
[14:17] <ork> Sorry I wasn't looking. Do you mean the top of column 1 or above column 1?
[14:17] <ork> I am having trouble visualizing what you are doing. Can you post it somewhere?
[14:19] <afab> i want to align it at the top of column 1
[14:19] <afab> i mean if column 2 has say a story that is 200 lines
[14:19] <afab> and #1 has 5 lines, it's centered in to the middle of the column, but i'd like
[14:20] <afab> i mean I can add <p></p> underneat to bring it to the top, but i'm
[14:20] <ork> Is this a padding issue within a cell perhaps?
[14:20] <afab> no
[14:20] <ork> How much of a pad do you currently have?
[14:20] <afab> 0
[14:22] <ork> What are you using for cell spacing?

[15:56] <b0nk3r> is there some kind of absolute position i can set?
[16:16] <quisling> b0nk3r, tables are NOT for layout.

[17:42] <Mark30001> hello
[17:42] <ork> Hello Mark
[17:43] <Mark30001> I read the topic; is html help allowed?
[17:44] <ork> I hope so. That is why I am here. However, I didn't get any help with my topi
[17:44] <Mark30001> ahh
[17:44] <Mark30001> I was wondering if it was able to have a page automatically enlarge horiz
[17:45] <Mark30001> I know it's possible vertically with "<... width="100%">
[17:45] <Mark30001> I mean, possible to enlarge vertically*
[17:45] <Mark30001> sorry
[17:46] <ork> Not sure if I understand what you mean by vertically. Are you looking to do th
[17:47] <Mark30001> well, I thought it was possible to do so in standard HTML, but I was unab
[17:48] <ork> Do you have your page posted on a URL anywhere?
[17:48] <Mark30001> no
[17:48] <ork> Are you trying to expand a table?
[17:48] <Mark30001> I'm currently working on an HTML file on my Comp
[17:49] <Mark30001> yes
[17:49] <ork> Any possibility of posting this on Geocities to that I can see your code?
[17:50] <ork> I believe it is possible to get something to expand, but my understanding is th
[17:50] <ork> That value could be all parameters. Perhaps someone else might have some input
[17:55] <Mark30001> ahh
[17:55] <Mark30001> would this be in javascript?
[17:55] <ork> I do not know Javascript, but believe javascript would be appropriate for this
[17:55] <Mark30001> here's an example of what I am looking for:
[17:55] <Mark30001> http://img183.imageshack.us/img183/6653/expq5.png
[17:56] <Mark30001> the entire site is a table; the black part is a row
[17:56] <ork> So you want to move the small box to the top?
[17:57] <Mark30001> no
[17:57] <Mark30001> I want the bottom black part to always stay at the bottom of the page
[17:58] <ork> What do you want to do with these boxes?
[18:00] <Mark30001> http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/1725/exha4.png
[18:01] <ork> What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
[18:02] <Mark30001> I want the black "<TR><TD>Disclaimer</TD></TR>" t

[18:08] <ork> Image files might slow the loading.
[18:12] <Mark30001> nah
[18:12] <Mark30001> well, thanks for your help anyway
[18:33] <stonez> Why won't this line of code work? echo "Refered by " . $_SERVER["HTTP_REFE
[18:33] <stonez> I don't get it
[18:34] <stonez> looks right to me.
[18:43] <Arrakis> umm
[18:43] <Arrakis> when you say "doesnt" work
[18:43] <Arrakis> what do you mean by that
[18:43] <Arrakis> lol
[18:49] <stonez> haha
[18:49] <stonez> It won't work :)
[18:49] <stonez> i'm trying to do it from a .shtml file
[18:49] <stonez> and none of my php will work in that file
[18:50] <stonez> so I tried to create a .php file
[18:50] <stonez> and include it with ssi
[18:50] <stonez> but that gave me this errormsg: [an error occurred while processing this dir
[18:50] <stonez> really weird
[19:06] <spank> you have to configure your webserver to parse certain data for file extension
[19:06] <spank> if you're going to use php, just use php includes
[19:06] <spank> if you want your php to parse in an htm file, edit your .htaccess to allow it
[19:22] <stonez> thanks

[20:23] <EGreg> Here goes. I want to write XHTML source files which look nice, which sometime
[20:23] <aneki> ok
[20:23] <EGreg> however, all this whitespace turns into a space in the document which is prod
[20:23] <EGreg> Is there any way I can have, for example, <img src="blah.gif"/>\n<im
[20:23] <EGreg> and avoid the resulting spaces between the images?
[20:24] <EGreg> or do I have to absolutely position everything just because I am using whites
[20:24] <aneki> so you dont want any gaps between pictures?
[20:24] <EGreg> right!
[20:24] <EGreg> i have been able to achieve this with <img /><img /> one long lin
[20:25] <EGreg> kind of sucks that whitespace in source is not ignored
[20:29] <kaos01> it is, isnt it ?
