I've gotten pretty darn far lol I've gotten soo far that it looks perfect in Firefox for me

but then i go to look at it in internet explore and I'm blinded and i don't know how to fix it.

Doesn't look good in Opera either. I say fix it up in Opera and you might get it to look perfect in Firefox and in Internet Explorer just by doing so. I'd look at the code and try to tell you what i find wrong; however, not now, need to do something else; sorry, a bit busy today.

Start by adding a Doc Type so IE6 is not using Quirks Mode.

It looks like HTML 4.01 Transitional might be the right Doc Type.

Well I was able to fix most of the problems, you just have to tweak it now so the right side border with align with each other and the realign the text which will most like be done in CSS and not in the tables.

HTML

CODE

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<link
href="Testing-Template_files/css.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
</head>
<body>
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="697" border="0">
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td colspan="4"><img src="Testing-Template_files/header.png" /></td>
    </tr>
    <tr id="header2">
      <td width="140" colspan="3" height="85">Navigation</td>

    </tr>
    <tr id="fill">
      <td width="700px">
      Navigation<br>
      Navigation<br>
      Navigation<br>
      Navigation<br>
      </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td colspan="4"><img
src="Testing-Template_files/footer.png" /></td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>
</body>
</html>

CSS

CODE

BODY {
    MARGIN-TOP: 0px; BACKGROUND: #6b4929; MARGIN-LEFT: 0px;
}
#fill {
    BACKGROUND: url(fill.png);
    background-repeat:repeat-y;
}
#header2 {
    BACKGROUND: url(header2.png);
    width:700px;
    background-repeat:no-repeat;
}

CODE

<tr id="fill">
      <td width="700px">
      Navigation<br>
      Navigation<br>
      Navigation<br>
      Navigation<br>
      </td>

Why is the width 700px when it is only for the navigation? Where's the content supposed to go to? In fact, looking at the code, there's no room at all for it.

Here's what i did, check it out in IE:

HTML

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<link href="css.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body>
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="697" border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td colspan="4"><img src="site_files/header.png" alt=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="header2"></td>
<td rowspan="2" style="width: 540px; padding-top: 5px;" valign="top">
HIHIHIHIHIHIH<br>
HIHIHIHIHIHIH<br>
HIHIHIHIHIHIH<br>
HIHIHIHIHIHIH<br>
HIHIHIHIHIHIH<br>
HIHIHIHIHIHIH<br>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="fill" align="left" valign="top">
Navigation<br>
Navigation<br>
Navigation<br>
Navigation<br>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="4"><img src="site_files/footer.png" alt=""></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</body>
</html>

CSS:

CODE

BODY {
margin-top: 0px;
background: #6b4929;
margin-left: 0px;
}

.fill {
background: url(http://school-stuff.org/test/site_files/fill.png) repeat-y;
width: 157px;
padding-left: 15px;
}

.header2 {
background: url(http://school-stuff.org/test/site_files/header2.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
height: 85px;
width: 157px;
}

Rfid Package/template - (1)

I’m looking into RFID for some stuff. Is anyone here familiar with it? It would be nice if there is
some kind of package for it. Let’s say that you have a bunch of tags; when you have a new customer
or new item, you create new id for him/her or the item, and you create the tag that contains that
id. You give it to the customer or put it on the item. Next time you just scan it and you can
retrieve the id. There is something like this for barcode. It has a set of hardware and also it has
source code and/or API for this. Is there some package for RFID for this? I’d appre...
