Some of my groups pages do not show up properly. Why? Because this web server takes pages that you authored and "wraps" them in its own HTML to generate the web page header, footer, and on on, authored pages have some (reasonable) restrictions on what they can contain.
LinksWhen you are authoring your own pages, you are better off using relative links where ever you can. Relative links allow a copy of your pages to be viewed from anywhere.If you must use an absolute link, consider using < a href="/projects/chess/workgroup/myfile.html">myfile.html</a> instead of < a href="http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/workgroup/myfile.html">myfile.html</a> Syntax CheckingOr - problem with centered textIf a public page has problems, then it is worth checking both the HTML Validation and the CSS Validation.In particular, looking at the CSS Validation will show what cascading style sheets are in action. For example, a page was having centered text. Running the CSS validator and looking for center showed that many tags were centered, but in particular that the body tag had the following style: body { margin: 0px 0px; text-align: center; color: #000000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; }The solution was to change the body tag to look like: <body style="text-align: left"> HTML links from forum pages to the main workgroup
pages should take into account that the main workgroup
pages are can be found in Broken Link DetectionTo check for bad links on the trust site, use wget:wget -np -m -X chessj http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu >& wget.outWe use -X chessj to avoid searching Java pages. At one time, the calendar would blindly give months into the future and past forever. This was probably fixed, so -X chessj might not be necessary. |
