Blue Strip Across Top of Browser - 2/29/2004 12:00:17
hii, Guys!
I noticed on my website that the blue strip across the very top is showing the FP info instead of the page info...how do I get it to show what the page is?
Example: On my sales page in the address bar it shows "http://www.badcaragain.com/your_ebook_for_savings.htm" But, on the blue strip across the very top it shows "Webpage Template No: 02 - Microsoft Internet Explorer".
What do I need to do to get the page info on the blue strip? 
Thanks, in the Lord, Tommy

<TITLE>Webpage Template No: 02</TITLE>
- Modify this information inside your source code. You can also inside the FP Normal view, right-click and goto page properties. Search around inside their for a box that says "Webpage Template No: 02" and then modify it to fit your needs.
Leave it blank to show nothing.

Go into FP & open up the page in question. Right click on the page & choose page properties. now locate the Title. Change it to whatever you wish.

Thanks Bob and Corey!
I went in and changed the title, now it shows the "location":mfp - c:/Doc & Set etc.
Can I delete the "location" part of it?
In th Lord, Tommy

At the moment I was just wondering how to change it on the sales page. When I find out what to do with that, I'll go to the rest of them and change them. :-)
On the sales page I put "your_ebook_for_savings" I had to do it this way so as to make a link for someone to click and go to that page, not the main page.
What I was wondering about on this page, which I haven't uploaded as of yet, was how to make it read just "your_ebook_for_savings" and not have all the 'location' information. I mean, do you really care where I have it located on my machine? 
I appreciate what you do, here, and hope you can teach an old dog something!
If you don't mind, go to: http://www.badcaragain.com/your_ebook_for_savings.htm and see what I was talking about.
Thanks, in the Lord, Tommy

Corey, I haven't uploaded the page yet. I know, now, how to change the title, but in Preview it showed the 'location' as well.
That is what I need to know, can I delete "location" ? Or, is there a need?
Forgive me and forget the above. I just uploaded it, went to it, and it is doing like it ortta!
Thanks again, Corey, if I can ever answer an automotive question for you, just ask.

Well if you deleted <TITLE></TITLE> - that is why your location is showing up there. You need a title tag in your HTML page - otherwise the location will show up. For example, if you uploaded that page right now you would see the URL in the blue bar.

Thanks, Bob, I guess you are talking about on this forum, or any other, plus my website, right?
If I put badcaragain[at]netdot.com how will it work when it's clicked?
I have been concerned about them on the site but didn't know what to do.
Why would I not want my links to be indexed? I thought that was the way the search engines located you. (?)

Thanks, Bob, I guess you are talking about on this forum, or any other, plus my website, right?
- I am talking about this forum, and every forum.
If I put badcaragain[at]netdot.com how will it work when it's clicked?
I have been concerned about them on the site but didn't know what to do.
- It will not work when it is clicked. But when someone wants to send you an e-mail, they will exchance [at] with an @ symbol so the e-mail will send.
Why would I not want my links to be indexed? I thought that was the way the search engines located you. (?)
- I ususally prefer to not have my links indexed on the forums I post on. The only link I wish to index is my main url. Many people post their web sites on forums just to get their linked indexed. This isn't good to have on your forums.
Basically, I would change the form of your e-mail address only. And do not change your URL: www.badcaragain.com.
Some forums will user built in functions to handle these e-mails and links in a specific way to not let bots pick them up.
It is actually pretty hard to in corporate into a forum, but it really helps users against spam. One of my clients I picked up last night had around 150 different e-mail addresses that were posted on his web site. He received around 1500 spam e-mails a day. This is a lot you would think, but then divide the total amount of e-mail spams by the number of e-mails he has, and you will see that it isn't too bad.
Anyways, what I did for him was use a javascript to encrypt the e-mail addresses. I use the same method on my web site. I wrote a tutorial on how to do the same someplace too. It really helps. My client will notice how much less spam messages he will b e receiving.
[Edit] Just to add.. This forum does not sue the encryption to display links. Example, this is what the code is for displaying a link in this forum:
<a target="_blank" href="http://www.badcaragain.com">www.badcaragain.com</a>
Now on a site using encryption, this would appear as:
<script type="text/javascript">
document.write( '<a hr' + 'ef="' + 'http://www.badcaragain.com" target="_blank" title="Opens a new browser window.">' + 'www.badcaragain.com</a>' );
</script>

Thanks, Bob, I'll change it.
About the html scripts you added, do they work, and may I use them? :-)

No, I don't know anyone in AZ...I'm in Deep East Texas near Lufkin/Nacogdoches.
Send me a description of it, with a link/address, and I'll post it for you. How's that?
