Need Help with HTML PLEASE!

[gonewild]

Lance. Do you think it is wise to mess further this evening? oke:

:rollhappy:

The link works. Let me get it into the footer and then perhaps we can talk about customization (and getting it off your server!)

It's totally up to you! oke:
You can change the alt anytime but since you are changing code now it is simple. Whatever you put between the "s in the alt line will be what will show.

Anytime you need help with it let me know.

 

[Heather]

I may take you up on that....lol. Mercy me!

(oh yeah, how do I make it red?) :rollhappy:

Okay, now I am having some trouble with the footer. When I tried to change it to match the header I am getting error messages. The color is right but there is no active link. Sorry I'm such a dope about this!

Okay, now I am having some trouble with the footer. When I tried to change it to match the header I am getting error messages. The color is right but there is no active link. Sorry I'm such a dope about this!

Look at the above lines I made red. Why is the photobucket link in there?

 

[Heather]

That was the logo image that I was initially trying to use as a link to the paypal donate button. Clearly, that didn't work and now I have deleted it and I still am not able to link through the donation button at the bottom of the page.

 

[Heather]

And where'd that "submit" come from? That wasn't there a minute ago! ARGH!!! :sob:

 

[gonewild]

OK wait a minute.

 

[gonewild]

This code should use your image as the donation link image.....

<form name="_xclick" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="[email protected]">

<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="PP-DonationsBF">

<input type="image" src="http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y134/ahmcd33/slippertalk2.jpg" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">
<img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1"></form>
</form>

 

[gonewild]

And where'd that "submit" come from? That wasn't there a minute ago! ARGH!!! :sob:

I don't see "submit"
I don't do it either.
:evil:

 

[gonewild]

But wait... you already have the logo image linked to the forum home page?

Do you want to repeat the image?

 

[gonewild]

The following code will use the red button sitting beside the logo image for the donations, that looks pretty good.


<form name="_xclick" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="[email protected]">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Slippertalk Forum Fund">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="USD">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="PP-DonationsBF">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="0.00">
<input type="image" src="http://shopgonewild.com/images/x-click-but21red.gif/" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">
<img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1"></form>
</form>

 

[Heather]

Okay Lance (and btw, you are a saint for helping me with this! My other two boys who generally submit seem to be avoiding me this weekend (you know who you are!) )

I inserted the above code and am getting the blue ? box again.

Okay Lance (and btw, you are a saint for helping me with this! My other two boys who generally submit seem to be avoiding me this weekend (you know who you are!) )

I inserted the above code and am getting the blue ? box again.

Sometimes it is necessary to use the www. in the link, Try changeing the image link to:

<input type="image" src="http://www.shopgonewild.com/images/x-click-but21red.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">

And if you want to change the alt text you can do it now by changeing the words between the "s... Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!... to read anything you want, just make sure you leave the "s intact in the code line.

 

[goldenrose]

OMG - You are both saints!

 

[Heather]

Okay - now I have the button, but not the logo and not the link to paypal!

Maybe we really only need this in the header....anyone opposed, say aye.

 

[gonewild]

There are duplicate lines in the form code. Delete the duplicate lines as shown in red below. See what that does. I'm not sure what happened to your logo image yet?

Okay - now I have the button, but not the logo and not the link to paypal!

deleted the dups - still no dice but don't worry, I'm inclined to just let the footer go at this point - I still have to clean my house and respond to forum funding issues today....
