so i have a pretty normal setup inside my application.html.erb file:
<html class="h-100">
!head, title, scripts, stylesheets removed for this example here on stackoverflow!
<body class="d-flex flex-column h-100">
<!-- Dropdown Structure -->
<header>
<%= render 'shared/nav' %>
<div class="container">
<%= render partial: 'shared/message' %>
</div>
</header>
<main role="main" class="flex-shrink-0">
<%= yield %>
</main>
<footer class="footer mt-auto py-3">
<div class="container">
<h3>hello</h3>
</div>
</footer>
</body>
That looks good to me. However, the footer is not visible! In fact, it completely disappears when i visit a page. When i inspect the footer via developer tool, it's not even listed inside there.
But for some odd reasons on some pages the footer becomes visible and is then also listed in the developer tool, like it normally should.
My initial thought was that an old scaffold.scss file was causing that and i removed the file entirely, however, that didn't made any changes at all.
I have no errors whatsoever. Never had this kind of issue before. I've searched my app.scss file for any .footer classes, body, html or any other classes that could overwrite the css from bootstrap, but couldn't find anything (used search tool in vscode).
EDIT:
It seems like my html and the body is only 760px in height, however, the main is full width (over 2000px).
I've tried to add html, body { height: 100%; }, but even with that height is still just 760px in height. That seems to be the issue, since the pages that show the footer are not higher than 760px.
Any ideas what could cause that problem?
For anyone running into this same kind of issue:
I've simply moved a few scripts under the <%= yield %>. For some reasons, they were hiding my footer. One of the scripts initializes a sticky chat bar at the bottom, i suspect this particular script is causing the problem. By moving all suspected scripts into the main part, the footer is now finally rendered!
Updated main part (removed scripts for showcase purposes):
<main role="main" class="flex-shrink-0">
<%= yield %>
<script></script>
</main>
Greetings!

I'm using Wordpress 5.2.2 with Newspress Extend theme as the parent.
I restored the default settings of the theme in Appearance --> Newspress Options in an attempt to fix something unrelated, and lost the custom html/inline css that floated the advertisements, one left and one right to be sandwiching the logo. Oops. I tried to guess the replacement code based on my very limited knowledge of html/css and it's rendering them above not only the logo, but the top menu as well. I know this change can be done in this section because I'm just trying to restore it to what it was from the previous developer. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Your ads are sitting outside of the container div. They're actually sitting above the site's metatags at the moment. CSS is a powerful tool, but it shouldn't be used to over-correct or mask improper HTML structure. You need to stuff your ads into their respective divs.
This is how your HTML should look, specifically for your header div:
<div id="header">
<div id="header-content">
<!-- Site Titele and Description Goes Here -->
<div class="topadlft"><img src="http://ebonynewstoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/FLO_16975_Education-Print-Ad-Ebony-News-Today_10.625x10.445-GLOBE-C.jpg" alt="fla lottery"><img src="http://ebonynewstoday.com/wp-content/themes/newspress-extend/images/ad3.png"></div>
<img class="site-logo" src="http://ebonynewstoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Ebony_LOGOHorizontal_Color.gif"><h1 class="site-title-hidden">Ebony News Today</h1>
<h2 class="site-title-hidden">"The Heartbeat of Our Community"</h2>
<div class="topadrt"><img src="http://ebonynewstoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/SEH_EbonyNewsAd_OCT2017-1.jpg" alt="southeastern honda"><img src="http://ebonynewstoday.com/wp-content/themes/newspress-extend/images/ad3.png"></div>
</div><!-- header-content -->
<div class="heading-date">Friday, October 4, 2019</div>
</div>
You will also want to turn off the "display:none;" selectors in your CSS file for the "topadlft" and "topadrt" classes. Also remove the inline styles from each ad image. You're going to want the div classes that contain the ads to do the heavy lifting here. Inline styles will just cause further complications.
Once you've addressed the above, you should wind up with something that looks like this:
Fixed Header Image
So I've just published a website for the first time and I've come up with a problem. It looks like that the _Layout.cshtml page and the views conflicts with each other, because it doesn't load all of the CSS and JS. I get a few errors in the console tab which says:
"
HTML1503: Unexpected start tag,
HTML1512: Unmatched end tag,
HTML1506: Unexpected token.
"
When I go to the source of the page where the error occurs, the layout and the view page are combined together, it gives the error at the seconds head tags. The first first head tag is the one from the Layout page and the second head tags is from the view page. Thus having 2 head tags in 1 page and it conflicts.
Is there something I missed before publishing? Because on localhost it runs fine without these conflicts.
Hope someone can help me, thanks in advance! :)
I recommend you read through this MSDN article on Layout pages using Razor.
It sounds like you're repeating your header information.
From the article,
Many websites have content that's displayed on every page, like a
header and footer, or a box that tells users that they're logged in.
ASP.NET lets you create a separate file with a content block that can
contain text, markup, and code, just like a regular web page. You can
then insert the content block in other pages on the site where you
want the information to appear. That way you don't have to copy and
paste the same content into every page.
In other words, the layout page has all of the markup that you want repeated on every page. This way, you don't have to repeat it manually.
A content page can have multiple sections, which is useful if you want
to use layouts that have multiple areas with replaceable content. In
the content page, you give each section a unique name. (The default
section is left unnamed.) In the layout page, you add a RenderBody
method to specify where the unnamed (default) section should appear.
You then add separate RenderSection methods in order to render named
sections individually.
Since each page is likely to have multiple sections, you can use the RenderSection method to differentiate them in your layout.
Here's an example from the article:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Multisection Content</title>
<link href="~/Styles/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="header">
<div>This content will repeat on every view that uses this layout.</div>
#RenderSection("header", required: false)
</div>
<div id="main">
#RenderBody()
</div>
</body>
</html>
As you can see, any header information will be loaded using the RenderSection method. On your view, you would define that section using code similar to this:
#section header {
<div>
This content will only repeat on the page that it is declared in.
</div>
}
So, when you run it, you'll get:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Multisection Content</title>
<link href="~/Styles/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="header">
<div>This content will repeat on every view that uses this layout.</div>
<div>
This content will only repeat on the page that it is declared in.
</div>
</div>
<div id="main">
...
</div>
</body>
</html>
The required:false part of #RenderSection("header", required: false) means that you do not have to include the Section "header" in every view that uses the layout. It is optional. If you do not have required set to false, it will be required that you declare it on every page that uses the layout.
On a side note, make sure you only declare your css and javascript that in only one of these locations, preferably the layout page if it is going to be repeated. This does not mean, however, that you cannot have css and javascript in both. For example, if you are using bootstrap in your project, you would include that in your layout page so that you do not repeat the inclusion throughout your views. But, you may, for example, include a view specific javascript file in only your view and not the layout.
Total Validator doesn't find this link and write this warning to me:
Add a skip navigation link as the first link on the page.
How can I write this link in a better way?
<html>
<body>
Skip to Content
navbar with menu
<div id="skip">
</div>
</body>
</html>
From what I have tested, they do require the text link to contain the word "skip", and the href attribute to start with a #, no matter if this element exists.
With the code you have submitted, it works with my own installation of TotalValidator (I am not saying that I would use this tool).
For information, TotalValidator web site uses the following code
<div id="skip">Skip navigation</div>
[...]
<a id="content"></a>
In spite of what the first comment says, the ID value "skip" is technically fine; it does not need to be changed to "skiptocontent". The reason why TotalValidator does not detect the skip link is probably something else. The link goes to somewhere in the page, and that "somewhere" is not explicitly marked as the main content. You can do this using WAI-ARIA landmarks.
With markup such as the following, it should be obvious for a validator that your first link is a skip link to the main content:
<body>
Skip to Content
<!-- navigation menu goes here -->
<div role="main" id="skip">
<p>...</p>
</div>
</body>
You can also use "semantic" elements, e.g.
<body>
Skip to Content
<header><h1>...</h1></header>
<nav><!-- navigation menu goes here --></nav>
<main id="skip"><!--role="main" is redundant on the main element-->
<p>...</p>
</main>
<footer>
</footer>
</body>
See the WAI-ARIA specification for documentation on main (role) and the HTML5.2 spec for the main element.
Can someone please help me with something. Im building a website and it includes html5. The thing that i dont understand is using the <section> function.
Preview
<section id="1">
click her to go to section 2
</section>
this is the section 2
<section id="2">
<!-- html source where <p> and etc will go -->
</section> Closed Section
The section above is what i only want to be seen in the webpage instead of showing section 2. Its pretty much like having many pages in 1 just without reloading or scrolling down.
In my css i have scroll bar locked, and ive tried many things to make that section to only be show on the webpage. Im kindof learning new html5 functions and im experiencing the things now
http://jsfiddle.net/K2w49/
I think you're a bit confused about what a function is. <section> is an HTML5 element. No function involved.
If you're talking about having a seamless fullscreen interface (i.e. they never scroll, new stuff just loads in similar to Flash applications), then it doesn't really matter what html container you use (i.e. div, section, aside)
For example..
<div class="wrapper">
<section id="slide-1" class="slide">
<!-- content -->
</section>
<section id="slide-2" class="slide">
<!-- content -->
</section>
</div>
Then max the wrapper and attach an absolute or fixed value to it...
Here's what you asked for: http://jsfiddle.net/K2w49/7/
If you're going to have a lot of content, you should use AJAX to load as needed and change the script around a little.
I am using the DNN MobiNuke Module (v02.00.03) from DataQuadrant to create a mobile version of a website I have created. Everything is going well EXCEPT a weird issue I am running into with the Mobile Skins. I have a simple Mobile Skin that looks like this:
<div id="mobile_frame">
<div id="mobile_header">
...
...
</div>
<div id="main_wrap">
<div id="mobile_main" class="sub">
<div id="ContentPane" runat="server"></div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="mobile_footer">
...
...
</div>
</div>
The issue that is arising is that ANY content in the ContentPane that has an empty div tag will change itself when rendered in a mobile browser:
<div class="xxxx"></div>
Will change itself to
<div class="xxxx" />
The biggest problem that this is causing is that the browser is interpreting the tag as an opening div tag with no closing tag. Therefore it is placing an ending div tag essentially wherever it wants. It's causing ALL of the markup after this area to get very messed up.
Here is an example of the code as it should be, and how it is rendering on the page:
Should be:
<div id="main_wrap">
<div id="mobile_main" class="sub">
... Content Here ...
</div>
</div>
<div id="mobile_footer">
...
</div>
</div>
But it renders as:
<div id="main_wrap">
<div id="mobile_main" class="sub">
... Content Here ...
</div>
<div id="mobile_footer">
...
</div>
</div>
</div>
I can fix this in the markup that I have control of by putting inside of the tags, but I do not have the time/energy to go through EVERY module that might be showing up in the ContentPane to check for empty tags. In addition, there are places where I want an empty tag to fill it with content later with javascript.
Lastly, I did a TON of research to look this up and I cannot find a thing. The closest that I found is that this happens in XSLT when transforming some XML, but as far as I know MobiNuke is not doing that.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I have figured out the issue after having a discussion with the vendor. There is a setting in the module settings called "Enable content adaptation". Apparently the setting will try to make the HTML to be XHTML compliant, but it was definitely not working for me. Hope this helps anyone else seeing this.
