View Full Version : html not working in text area HardyzGurL87 07-19-2003, 09:12 PM Could someone view the source on this page http://www27.brinkster.com/revenantx/paboutme.html and tell me why my tags are showing and aren't working in my textarea? thanks LunarPrincess 07-19-2003, 09:43 PM maybe it's because you didn't start your HTML like this: <HTML> <TITLE>UNTITLED</TITLE> <BODY> UR HTML GOES HERE </BODY> </HTML> LunarPrincess 07-19-2003, 09:46 PM did it help a little bit? HardyzGurL87 07-19-2003, 09:56 PM No, but thanks anyway BugGirl 07-19-2003, 10:02 PM Because you're writing in a text area. Put it in a table instead. HardyzGurL87 07-19-2003, 10:11 PM but.. the text area is IN a table.. ? oh well.. i'll try.. BugGirl 07-19-2003, 10:35 PM HTML wont work in a text area. Most people use text areas to display HTML codes in the first place. Try this code: </head> <body bgcolor="#999999"> <center> <table border="5" width="500" height="300" background="yourbackground.gif" bordercolor="6d578c" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td background="bg.jpg"> <font size="+1" color="#FFFFFF" face="lucida sans unicode"> <blockquote> <b>Name</b>: Molly<br><b>Age</b>: 16<br><b>Location</b>: Texas<br><b>Favorite Ninja Turtle</b>: Leonardo<p> </blockquote> eh, I'll add more later.. </td> </tr> </table> <font size="-2" color="#FFFFFF" face="lucida sans unicode"> Opened July 20, 2003 </font> </font> </body> (edited to fix some mistakes in your code i missed the first time. Yes, i know i have two </font>s. I had two font tags open.) HardyzGurL87 07-19-2003, 10:47 PM Hey, thanks! it worked. :) you're my new hero. yay |
