Yup, I am another student, but I am not a total newb.

I have a started my project and frames is a big thing we are using for the first one. It is required that I use old school shit like xhtml for it, but I can use CSS too.

Anyway, i have my page setup similar to this one. It looks sort of like this for the frames:

| |___banner____| |
| |___content___ | |
| |
| |
| |___content___ | |
| |___ footer____ | |

I am having trouble getting the image I have stretch to the edge of the frame in the banner section. The image is almost big enough but I need to tell the code to pull it to the edges flush.

And one more little question on the side. I saw a buddy of mine using some sort of blog site....It was your own little homepage. You could drag and drop things like your gmail email, chuck norris quotes, news, calendar, or things of that nature. It was like you could add whatever sections you wanted on it. All the while you could like move things around in the web page. I think it was some sort of .com. I know what sounds sort of general, but maybe one of you knows.
 
I am not sure what you mean by 'old school shit', but XHTML is the current web and web of the future, as far as the markup language. It is not old school by any means (many people still have not caught up).

You will need to post some code regarding the banner orat least provide a more detailed statement of the problem. Are we talking a table, div, or img tag? Is it being done with CSS?

As to your buddies blog type thing, are you reffering to the google page creator? That's a very drag-and-drop approach to creating a home page.
 
As far as the website I couldn't find goes, No. I mean like he would go there to just check email, read news, or add events to his calendar. It was like he logged in....then he could just move around things. IE. He had his gmail on there for email, some website for news he liked, an updated list of Chuck Norris jokes, and a calendar. It is something both you and I can access and customize by making our own accounts. Oh well, forget that.

Anyway, here is the code for the banner;


<body bgcolor="#000000" text="#FFFFFF" link="#CCCCCC" alink="#CC0000" vlink="#FFFFFF">

<div align="center">
<img src="images\flower.jpg" width="1000" height="154" border="0" align="center" valign="top">
</div>

<tr>
<table height="6" align="center" cellpadding="5" valign="top">
<tr>
<td valign="middle">
<a href="bio.html" target="content">Bio</a> |
<a href ="contact.html" target="content">Contact</a> |
<a href="photos.html" target="content">Photos</a> |
<a href ="http://digg.com" target="content">Digg</a>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
 
you want the actual banner image to stretch? I don't know that you can nor would. Depending on the image itself, you could probably make a repeating image to use on the sides of it or something...

As for your buddy, it sounds like he's just singed into the Google home page.
 
just give the height and width attributes in the img tag a value of 100% and it'll stretch across the page

edit: or just the width if you don't want it to extend down the page, just across...
