    Bridge saddle screws?

    I have a Telecaster at home that is missing a saddle screw. Does anyone know what size saddle screws are on a telecaster? I checked around on the web, and found full bridge assemblies, but I don't need the whole assembly, just one screw.

    Why you should use the Verdana font on the web...

    Me too. When it comes to programming, I definitely do that. It makes the code much, much easier to read, as well.

    Why you should use the Verdana font on the web...

    You can use whatever font you want. I merely made a suggestion. Courier New is a monospaced font. Looks really professional, but I don't know how well it would work in a website, especially when it comes to various font sizes. Let's see... The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog The quick...

    Why you should use the Verdana font on the web...

    Verdana, the font that the posts on this site are made with, is a very clean, very readable font. I usually suggest that people use Verdana for it's obvious readability. It will be reflected in your website. Especially if you consider other fonts. Consider the following sentences: The quick...

    I did find a couple of things. In your main table, your image tag should look like this: <img src="Images/Logo 1.gif" width="230" height="100" alt="The Fabs Logo" /> Instead of: <img src="Images/Logo 1.gif" width="230" height="100" alt="The Fabs Logo"/> (notice the extra space between the...

    What is "the perfect song"?

    Or is there such a thing? In your opinion, what is the "perfect" song, if it exists? Or, more importantly, what makes a song "timeless"? I mean, there are songs that might have been big in their time, that people just don't listen to anymore, and then you have songs like "Stairway...", "Free...

    How about this as a monthly challenge?

    Write a song in the style of, with the rhyming scheme and meter of, a haiku. I would say the only limitation would be to make it a minimum of nine lines. Any subject, but it would help to make sense.

    Yeah, it's basically a way of telling you "you clicked on this link". This really does sound like a path issue. You're using: <link rel="stylesheet" src="path.css" /> Right? Can you post both the link to the tutorial and the code you used? I'm curious about this, too... You can do it...

    They show as visited because you didn't clear your cache in your browser. They shouldn't have to be there at all. Yes, absolutely. This will make maintaining your site much easier. In a nutshell, XHTML is a stricter version of HTML. Essentially, in XHTML, everything (tags and elements) is...

    The host not supporting PHP should not be a problem. The .css is a pretty standard extension for CSS files. They're simply text files. It does sound like it might be a path problem somewhere. Did you mirror the site on your local machine and on the server? If the styles are working locally...

    Instead of trying it with IE, try it with Windows Explorer (like when you click on My Computer). Try the username this way (in Windows Explorer): ftp://username@www.whatever.com And see what happens. Otherwise, when you log in through WS FTP, do you see the CSS files anywhere, at all? If you...

    It would help to mirror the directory structure on your local machine. Have you tried doing an FTP through the Windows Explorer, instead of using WS FTP? Here's instructions on how to do that if you want to give it a try: http://www.ncsu.edu/resnet/file_transfer/ftp-windows-explorer.php

    This seems to be your problem. I tried locating the CSS file, based on the path information you have in the HTML, and got a 404 (not found). Are the CSS files on the server? If not, that's your problem. What FTP program are you using? And out of curiosity, why are you using Frames? It's not...

    Are they in Subdirectories (subfolders)? If so, it may be a path problem. Have a read on this page. http://webdesign.about.com/od/beginningtutorials/a/aa040502a.htm And you don't need both <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/include/fabs webpage.css"> and <style type="text/css">...
