    News

    July 24, 2007: Okay, I've added alot more the last week. Now have info on divbars and lookups. Far from complete, but it may be some help if you're new to this all.

    July 18, 2007: Created the page.

    I've started to write the more overall things, so, logically not that much yet. More will come shortly.

    And I do NOT claim to know everything about coding, but I hope this guide may help people that need some coding help. I've included both the simplest of codes, and some codes that may come in handy. May add some templates too later. And please, if you find this page helpful, pass it on so other people may get help too.

    Basics

    Let's start with the simplest things.

    1. underlined text
    2. italics text
    3. bold text

    Adding Images

    You may want to put images on your page, like I've done below here. I'll use the URL for this image in my explanations. If you want another image, simply replace my image's URL with another one.

    For everything about the border and extra things, remember to add it inside of the tags.

    You can find images all over the net, or make them yourself. But as many images are copyrighted, my personal suggestion is to make them yourself, or use those that are made by TNT (The Neopets Team.)

    When you've found your image, you have to right-click on it with your mouse. In the table that pops up, choose "properties" at the bottom. In the properties box you will find an area that says "Address: (URL)" and then the URL. Highlight it and copy it. To copy it you can either click ctrl and c, or you can right click on the highlighted text and choose "copy".

    Backgrounds

    First we start with plain colour-backgrounds:

    If you want an image as a background, there are two types of background you could want. I'll use the Chomby-image's URL in the examples.

    1. A tiled one (which repeats itself)
    2. A solid one (which stays put).

    If you choose one that stays put and don't repeat, you probably want a background colour too, at least my example does.

    But that's not all you can do. I've collected some background-based extra things you can add into code number 2 below. :)

    Fonts

    Tables

    There are many things you can use tables for. But to start with, it's a good thing to use if you want so have things in columns, or beside each other, or want things to be separated in two columns. For that you may also use divbars, but we'll get to that later.

    But now you've just made a table. There are many things you can do to the table though. Make it look fancy. Spiffeh. You name it.

    Divbars

    A divbar is a box you put things in. It makes you able to move things around. Handy. The basic code is:
    The best way to use divbars though are between style-tags. Then you have to give them a name. Naming a content-box "content" may be handy to remember what it is, or you can do like me and make pointless strange names. Like "riddlerox", which is one of my most common things in my coding.

    When you name something in style tags you need to start with either # or .
    If you start with # you must use the "div id" to use the box, if you name it . you have use the div class. Here you have something from the lookup I use:

    Both are inside the same style tags. No reason to have a double set. When you write in style tags, you don't use ="something" , but instead you say : and ;

    And everything has to be inside {these} instead of tags.
    Important: ALWAYS remember the px when it's about sizes, or it simply won't work.

    Explanation of the above codes:
    width:706px; - sets the width
    height:757px; - sets the height
    no-repeat; - makes the content not repeat
    border:none; - removes border
    position:absolute; - if I don't use this, it'll follow with the screensize. When I use it everything stays put
    position:relative; or position:fixed; - makes it follow the wideness of the screen
    left:34px; - it will move to 34px from the left edge
    top:240px; - it will move to 204px from the top

    Now lets pass to something interesting. Lets make the divbars fancy.

    Lookups

    Here is the code for the lookup I use on my sideaccount. Go see it here.

    Let's start with how to remove the header and footer.

    The footer is called #footer and the header is called #header in neopet's coding. To remove them, simply start with style tags, and write #header, #footer {display:none;} and end that with a style tag.

    Neopet's names on stuff:

    Stuff that is common to simply remove on userlookups: #bottomban
    #nst
    #tbg
    #m
    #mb
    #n
    #p_on
    #p_off
    .hdr
    .user
    .sf
    Hr

    Other neopets-named stuff on your lookup

    #header – the header
    #footer – the footer
    #main – where everything is
    #content – well, the content
    #usertrophies – your trophies
    #usershop – your shop/gallery
    #userneohome – your neohomes-section

    Things on the bottombar if you want to keep parts of it
