HTML manuals and reference guides

It's an endless task if qwikzite.net should deal with all ins and outs van HTML. There are already many manuals and reference guides available on the web, from which you can pick up elements suitable for use in QwikZite.

An excellent guide, well understandable for beginners, is Jan's Guide to HTML by Jan Weijers.

An extensive list of other English guides can be found at the site of the Open Directory Project.

An excellent reference site for reading up specific subjects is Index DOT Html.





HTML adjustments in QwikZite

Text fragments of html documents are often not direcly applicable in QwikZite, as all line-breaks and spaces in such fragments are transformed by QwikZite into 'hard returns' and non-breaking spaces.

Beneath a few examples are listed of necessary adjustments.




Inserting tables in QwikZite
In HTML:
<TABLE>
 <TR>
  <TD></TD><TD></TD>
 </TR>
 <TR>
  <TD></TD><TD></TD>
 </TR>
</TABLE>
In QwikZite:
<TABLE><TR><TD></TD><TD></TD></TR><TR><TD></TD><TD></TD></TR></TABLE>





Inserting lists in QwikZite
In HTML:
<UL>
 <LI></LI>
 <LI></LI>
 <LI></LI>
</UL>
In QwikZite:

Some browsers accept line-breaks between the list items in QwikZite, others don't. It is therefore advised to omit line-breaks.

In HTML:
<FORM ......>
 <INPUT ......>
 <INPUT ......>

When forms are submitted by website visitors, they are processed by a script that runs on the server of your QwikZite provider.
As such scripts exist in many kinds, please consult your QwikZite provider for the possibilities.
