I have a few questions...
-Your host, Dreamhost, How exactly do you manage your files, like I'm sure its html, but do you goto the site, login and you work on it there, or do you get a program for it?
-Also, I want to add somewhere on my site an AIM, MSN, and ICQ icon where the visitors are able to click on it and an IM pops up with my name so they can IM me, how would I do that?
Thanks for the help!

you would have to create and modify the files on your computer using a text editor such as Notepad, then upload them using FTP.

for the codes for IM stuff, try searching the forum- I know they've been brought up before :)

oh, such a relief, thanks! ^_^

uhm... I looked all over the boards that I thought it'd be under, but couldnt find anything... I want to know how can I make something like an AIM icon, and when the visitor clicks on it, the IM pops up with your screen name in, so they can talk to you...

did you do an actual search or did you just look manually?

you can click the Search button towards the top of the page (up by Register, User CP, etc.). you can then search all the forums. i know they've been discussed before :)

If you can't find anything on the forums, you might also want to go to each messenger site and look for something like "online presence" (each messenger calls it something different). But if they offer it, it will be somewhere on their site and they'll even have the html to copy and paste for it :)

ok, that helps a bunch, thanks ^_^

In case you haven't found it already, the AIM code is:

<a href="aim:goim?screenname=yourscreenname">Whatever</a>

and for an add to buddylist link:

<a href="aim:addbuddy?screenname=yourscreenname">Whatever</a>


Hope i helped!!

[edit: it wont seem to let me not put a space between the ? and screenname - but if a space is there, the code wont work, so remove it if you use it!!]

hey thanks a bunch!
