Need website help

[hmiles619]

I like your site so much that I want to copy one of its features. :cheesy: I'm fairly familiar with php, mysql, and i know a good amount of html....but I can't figure out how you program some tables to expand and contract when you click the arrow on the home page. Can anyone give me some hints.

If you want to see what from Aggiefans has influenced my programming, check out my site, www.hollismiles.com (http://www.hollismiles.com). It's my "blog" and homepage that I use to experiment on new website techniques.

P.S. Source code didn't help me.

No help until you add us to your links on the top left ;)

[hmiles619]

yessir

[hmiles619]

done

[hmiles619]

I even put it on top :gig:

[Pflugerville Ag]

Quit clogging up the site with all this nerd talk. Its Tech week! :D

[TwelfthAG]

Awesome! Jag will have to answer the question though. I'm just the graphics guy :cheesy:

Your PS is the number 1 way I code (by taking it from somewhere else and modifying it enough to make it my own)

<a href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('module_50')" style="float:right"><img alt="" border="0" id="collapseimg_module_50" src="http://www.aggiefans.com/forums/images/buttons/collapse_tcat.gif" /></a>


There is the html for the code but it references a javascript code somewhere.... i will have to dig through the php files to find that so give me some time to find it. (trying to edit the podcast as well right now)

[hmiles619]

no rush, changing my sites format will be a project i'll be working on here at work over the next week or so...work on the podcast if you have to choose between the two

[hmiles619]

and yeah, i saw that html, but thought that it was referencing something else.... makes me feel like i know what i'm talking about, thanks

[jagowar]

yeah its calling a jacascript library somewhere in the php code....


and i hope dustin doesnt come in this thread.... his head is liable to explode from all the technical talk here. :)

[hmiles619]

any luck finding it?

[hmiles619]

i could use something to take my mind off the game, any luck finding the java?

jag is slacking.

[jagowar]

yeah i am... i looked for 5 mins yesterday but couldnt find the content management system files so I gave up.

[hmiles619]

do you know where i could look to find some similar code? i'm having troulble finding something similar

[hmiles619]

I found it after a week of internet searches...my site is up and running

[TwelfthAG]

I guess we were a big help... :(

[hmiles619]

it's ok, i got the idea from ya'll....i guess that could be help enough

[TwelfthAG]

Looks good!

[TwelfthAG]

I still wonder if we should go back to our classic tan color as the default for this website....

[hmiles619]

I think the old color is great....makes the site seem cleaner

[hmiles619]

Thanks TwelfthAg :D

[TwelfthAG]

Yeah, this was a sugestion for a while. (obviously the logo up top needs work)

[TwelfthAG]

I guess we kind of forgot about it though.

[hmiles619]

I think it'd look good like that

[hmiles619]

I also like the old logo better

[TwelfthAG]

The problem with the old logo is we don't have the source file so can't manuipulate it easily for things such as that advertisment in Aggieland Illustrated.

[Vlyrock]

I think the old logo worked with that tan color better...

[Vlyrock]

And I do have the source files for the old logo... :D I didn't know you needed them.

[TwelfthAG]

Seriously? Like the photoshop files?

[hmiles619]

seriously vlyrock? even i caught that conversation a while back

[TwelfthAG]

There are a lot of problems with the logo we use now though. For one, the words are pretty small.

[Vlyrock]

I think they're Illustrated files actually, but yes I do have it Photoshop files too...

I don't remember that conversation at all. :D

[hmiles619]

I think they spent a few hours looking for it and stressing about it

[hmiles619]

lol

[TwelfthAG]

I think a white theme would look good for the site.
