I have some lengthy HTML which is over the 80 character limit for my project. We have a style guide which restricts the number of characters per line, which is good because right now the line runs so long that you can't see it all without scrolling right.
<div id="email-signup-container">
<div id="mc_embed_signup">
<div class="interested">
<div class="container">
<div class="left col-lg-6 col-md-6 col-sm-12 col-xs-12">
<h3>Help New York residents keep the heat on this winter.</h3>
DONATE
</div>
<div class="right col-lg-6 col-md-6 col-sm-12 col-xs-12">
<h3>Without heat? Visit our resources page.</h3>
<a class="btn-interest" href="resources">RESOURCES</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Unfortunately, I can't find any style guides that cover multilining HTML. I worked on one project where we newlined things by attribute, but it was controversial:
<a
href="http://www.nycharities.org/donate/charitydonate.asp?ID=4081"
class="donate-btn btn-interest">DONATE</a>
Some people wanted the closing carot on a new line like this:
<a
href="http://www.nycharities.org/donate/charitydonate.asp?ID=4081"
class="donate-btn btn-interest"
>DONATE</a>
Other people wanted the closing tag at the same level as the opening tag:
<a
href="http://www.nycharities.org/donate/charitydonate.asp?ID=4081"
class="donate-btn btn-interest"
>
DONATE
</a>
I kind of hate all of them. Can anyone point to any published style guides that cover this so we can just adopt one and move on?
I've been wondering this as well. The only thing I could find was the guide from GoCardless, which says:
<!-- Try using line-breaks for multiple attributes, keeping the first attribute
on the tag's opening line -->
Good:
<div custom-attribute
class="something"
role="something-else"></div>
<!-- The closing tag ^^^ can stay on the same line for empty elements-->
<div custom-attribute
class="something"
role="something-else">
··Foo <!-- Otherwise nest plz -->
</div>
Not a definite answer, but I would like to add another suggestion: indenting the attributes twice, and the content only once.
An example:
<a
href="http://www.nycharities.org/donate/charitydonate.asp?ID=4081"
class="donate-btn btn-interest">
DONATE
</a>
For an a tag this kind of looks weird, but for longer tag-names, as are common in Angular, it looks fine:
<my-component
attribute1="val"
attribute2="val2"
attribute3="etc">
<span>Hello :)</span>
</my-component>

I have two divs that act as links (<a>). One in one paragraph, the other in the second paragraph. The second link works: on mouseover (in Chrome) the bottom left of the window displays the link address. The top one does not do the same. What is wrong? I'm talking about the links in the paragraph tags, not the menu links.

<p>Hello</p>
You've forgotten to add the actual link on your anchor tags through href.
Your current code:
<a id="about" class="link-active">about</a>
<a id="pricing">pricing</a>
<a id="projects">projects</a>
<a id="legal">legal</a>
Changes:
about
pricing
projects
legal
Can you be a bit more clear about what outcome you are expecting?
Edit: I think i understand now, "About" "Pricing" "Projects" should be hyperlinks?
you are missing the "href" attribute in the tags which should fix your problem.
If you don't want the link to direct to a different page, you can use href="#" to stop this.
Are you on about the following lines?
RWD.
<p>Hello</p>
If so, both are working fine in chrome and IE for me. I'm not sure what the issue is for you.
try this code,add target="_blank" in your a href
<p>Hello</p>
And the working fiddle link is here https://jsfiddle.net/p7mnsj3p/
it seems to be simple , our designer made the a design of 3 different forms in one like page
as you may see in this snippet
I don't think we can do this design with valid html in twitter bootstrap grids ?
where you would get the form opening and closing tags and keep it valid
<div class="container">
<div class="col-md-4">
<div class="row"><div class="form1">form1</div></div>
<div class="row"><div class="form2">form2</div></div>
<div class="row"><div class="form3">form3 </div></div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-4">
<div class="row"><div class="form3">continue of form3 </div></div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-4">
<div class="row">
<div class="form3">
continue of form3
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div><!-- /.container -->
You cannot split a form element so that one part is inside one element and another part is inside another element. HTML syntax prevents that.
You can, however, have input elements and other controls outside a form element and associate them functionally with it using form attributes. Browser support is still too limited to make this a feasible option in normal situations.
I am using microformat for the first time.
So as examples given on http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=164506, I changed the code.
This is the existing code that was present on the page:
<div class="evD mr10">
<div class="imgH fl"><img /></div>
<div class="infAr">
<h3>EVENT NAME</h3>
<h4><span>at</span>VENUE NAME</h4>
<p>Event Description</p>
<a class="tdd" href="#">Genre</a>
</div>
<div class="dth">
<div class="sfrD fl">
</div>
<div class="strE sn fl">
</div>
<div class="Buy">
<a class="bkT" href="buy_link"></a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The Changes I made include :
Change the doctype to html5, and added microformat classes.
<div class="vevent evD mr10">
<div class="imgH fl"><img class="photo" /></div>
<div class="infAr">
<h3><a class="url summary" href="event_URL">EVENT NAME</a></h3>
<h4 class="location"><span>at</span>VENUE NAME</h4>
<p class="description">Event Description</p>
Genre
</div>
<div class="dth">
<div class="dtstart frD fl">DATE_START<span class="value-title" title="Date in ISO"></span></div>
<div class="dtend strE sn fl"><span class="value-title" title="Date in ISO"></span></div>
<div class="Buy tickets">
<a class="bkT offerurl" href="buy_link"></a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
I have the following questions/doubts :
Is it ok to have existing classes alongwith the microformat tags as done above?
As mentioned on http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1093493#usage, it is not allowed to have display:none on the content. However, I pass the data set and paginate using javascript, in which I show the relevant data. So how do I make sure that these is not ignored.
I load the images which are on the current page, leaving the src as blank, and later change the src, as the page is changed. So initally the event's photo is blank.
How do I counter from a search engine reading as blank.
Thank you.
(Sorry about the question being so long)
1) that is no problem. You can even combine multiple types of semantic markup on the same tags.
2) 3)
If the data is hidden and in JavaScript/AJAX then it is highly unlikely Google will see it.
You may have to restructure your architecture to make your content crawlable. That's a big subject. I suggest looking up "progressive enhancement" which is the method I currently think is best.
I'm not sure if this is really the best method, but I've only been working with joomla for two days so am very inexperienced.
Basically I have an html container in my template that holds a carousel extension and a set of images. The container has a blue background in contract to the white of the rest of the website.
I basically want to toggle that container with the extension on different pages. Here's my code:
<div id="top">
<div id="photos">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="carousel" />
</div>
<div id="social_media">
<a id="success" href="#">Read about our success stories</a>
<a id="partner" href="#">Be a partner</a>
<a id="facebook" href="#">Join us on Facebook</a>
</div>
</div>
What I want to do is make this entire chunk of code into a Custom HTML module that only display on certain pages.
I've attempted to do this but the extension for the carousel doesn't show up, nor the jdoc:include part. I'm guessing this is because Joomlas text editor doesn't interpret jdoc:includes the same way the joomla engine does.
Is there any way around this?
In order to load a module within an article (or a Custom HTML module) you want to use the loadposition command. Here is what it would look like in your case:
<div id="top">
<div id="photos">
{loadposition carousel}
</div>
<div id="social_media">
<a id="success" href="#">Read about our success stories</a>
<a id="partner" href="#">Be a partner</a>
<a id="facebook" href="#">Join us on Facebook</a>
</div>
</div>
I'm trying to make a couple of DIVs clickable in its entirety. I tried this...
<div id="features" class="threeSplit">
<div id="box1">
<a href="javascript:;">
<h3>Watch TV anywhere</h3>
<p>While you're out of town, you can still watch live television.</p>
</a>
</div>
<div id="box2">
<a href="install">
<h3>No subscription</h3>
<p>Save your money. VRT and RTBF channels are available at no cost.</p>
</a>
</div>
<div id="box3">
<a href="coverage">
<h3>Picking up channels</h3>
<p>Television channels can be picked up from antennas near you.</p>
</a>
</div>
</div>
Click here for live version. Now, XHTML 1.0 Strict does not like that I put block elements inside an anchor tag. Is there a better way that does comply with XHTML Strict? I know the page still contains lots of validation errors, but this is only a quick 'n dirty mockup.
You could use an onclick event within the div elements...
<div id="box2" onclick='window.location = "install"'>
<h3>No subscription</h3>
<p>Save your money. VRT and RTBF channels are available at no cost.</p>
</div>
You could either
Put span tags inside of your a tags, instead of h3 and p, and style them accordingly
Use javascript to catch the click and follow the link, doing away with the a tag
The last option, I would say, is more elegant.
