My code says
example.com
But when it comes to the browser, it looks like the following and the link is not working.
<a href="http: www.example.com"="">example.com</a href="http:>
Do you have any idea why this is happening?
Looks like you copied or accidentally added a blank space in the html. Simply set your cursor in front of the a and hit backspace till you hit the < ;-) Rinse and repeat for the closing bracket.
Make sure to specify a doctype and a charset on your HTML file. Also remember to save your file as ".html" or ".htm".
Here is a small example of a basic HTML structure.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Your document title</title>
</head>
<body>
Your code goes here.
example.com
</body>
</html>

I'm just trying to post a simple html file consisting mainly of some prose I wrote inside of <pre> elements.
Interestingly, when I view the file on my computer with my browser, the quotation marks display fine. But when I upload it to my website, quotation marks are rendered as something like “ or â€. I have looked around the web for solutions but they were few and in between.
I tried to use the meta tag and included
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset="utf-8" />
to my header but to no avail. Any ideas on how to solve this? It just wouldn't make sense to go back to the content inside the elements and code it into html as the prose is a draft and will go through many changes in the future.
The <!doctype html> tag indicates the file is HTML5 - so the browser will render it as such. lang="en" should be set to the language you are working with. Be sure to use the <meta charset="utf-8"> tag to set the character set in the <head>
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Template</title>
</head>
<body>
<pre>This is my stuff</pre>
</body>
</html>
Check your code with the browser's View Source and use the Validator at https://validator.w3.org/ to check the page.
Here what I tried.
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<pre>Einstein said,"Once you stop learning, you start dying"</pre>
</body>
</html>
I also tried only this
<body>
<pre>Einstein said,"Once you stop learning, you start dying"</pre>
</body>
Still working
I have a very simple code but when I go running it in chrome it's blank. Other files work fine. I do not know what to do;
Move the Title inside Head
and Close the tag.
If still doesn't work, refer following code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Future Technologies: Asteroid Mining</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Asetroid Mining</p>
</body>
</html>
I have 2 html pages (index.html and game.html) where I specify the same character encoding UTF-8
in the first page (index.html) every thing works fine but in the second page all characters appear like this �
this is the code of 2 pages :
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title> أصوات</title>
</head>
<body dir="rtl" lang='ar' class="contentBack">
</body>
</html>
the result in my browser:
how can I solve this problem ?
Make sure the file is also saved with the corresponding encoding (in your case UTF8). Setting the right meta charset may not be enough.
I am using Sublime Text 2 to write my testing html file. I save the text as HTML format.
Then when I try to open the file with browser by either drag&drop or Open_With...
Then.....
The browser open my plain text file, not the actual html.
This is what it look like. Just white background and these text.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<title>A Hello World Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Hello World</p>
</body>
This is my first time with html ever, do I have to do special setup with anything? I just use default SublimeText2.
That may be because you are missing the main tag <html>.
Do this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>A Hello World Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Hello World</p>
</body>
</html>
<html> is the main tag, browser will look for to tell whether it is html or not.
Also make sure it is saved as .html or .htm
Open up Sublime Text, press CTRL SHIFT + P.
Type in HTML into the box and select Set syntax: HTML.
Then, in the file, type in html then press tab straight after and it should create a snippet (which is default):
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Then make sure you save the document as .html or .htm.
This should work in your browser after.
Note: Setting syntax and doing snippet wont actually 'help' in terms of this question, but will help you in HTML by making things quicker and having syntax highlighting.
I am using DreamWeaver to code xHtml docs. in the program the code is valid but when I upload it in the inspect element I see double <head> tags and when I right-click to see the source file it seems o.k.
Is it because I'm using dreamweaver? what can be wrong?
the first error is : "Extra <html> encountered. Migrating attributes back to the original <html> element and ignoring the tag." - in line 3
The code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="keywords" content="the content of my doc" />
<meta name="description" content="this is an example document" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="rss feeds" href="linkto/xml/feeds.xml" />
<!-- scripts -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<title>The Title</title>

Thank you very much.
No problem in Chromium 5.0.307.9 (Developer Build 39052) under Linux. I can't test it in Safari now.
EDIT: Proposed test case had nothing to do with this problem, neither could see any extra <head> tags. However, I looked at the Developer Tools of Safari and Chrome under Windows and Firebug in Firefox and all three rendered the DOM incorrectly. Just have a look at this picture and see that the first <link> tag has jumped into the body.
This problem also has nothing to do with Javascript because when turning off Javascript the result is the same, even more clear when comparing with the source code. Strange I didn't notice this under Linux.
The Developer Tools of the WebKit browsers give an even clearer picture (also notice the jQuery error message). I suspect the Unicode Byte-Order Mark (BOM) at the beginning of the file causing the problem: as you can see the BOM is moved to the <body> of the document, perhaps dragging several elements in the <head> with it. But also the unclosed <link> elements, as shown by the W3C validator, might give some issues, although browsers usually handle this without any problems. First get rid of the BOM in your file and see if the problem persists.
And I see another error: those tags beginning with <meta ... are called meta tags, not "meat tags". ;-)
You should have a title element what you write between
the <title></title> tags will been displayed in top bar of your browser
Just make sure your
</head>
tag has the slash in the actual file you're working on. That's an easy typo.
To remove BOM from your document, you can use this php function:
function removeBOM($str=""){
if(substr($str, 0,3) == pack("CCC",0xef,0xbb,0xbf)) {
$str=substr($str, 3);
}
return $str;}
