Hello MNibble As a couple of other writers have said. Why are you using 'HTML FRAMES' and JavaScript to load them? Get a book on CSS and read it carefully. Then try a few things. Use XHTML preferably and it is all done on 'the user side'. That one CSS file can describe every page you want to have

Re: Trying to block out BGCOLOR

2003-03-21 Thread Jimmy George
Hello World Li Ngok Lam's approach looks good to me. Using the $line=~s// approach appears to be only removing the bgcolor word correctly but could be stuck on the different types of colour descriptor used. Is it RGB, hex or a word? Putting a background color descriptor in though allows you to ch

Hello World I thought 'encryption' was supposed to make the data transmitted from user to server into an unreadable block of garbage. Able to be decoded by the server of course - but of no use to any one else who tapped into the transmission or the file stored on the server. So what's the go? Ho
