Teacher needs help! - 7/2/2004 16:15:28   
I'm a teacher and I'm trying to create a website for my classroom. Everything has been going fine until I received this message when I went to the browser compatibility page:

In Internet Exploer 5.0 the attribute FP-TITLE is not permitted for the <IMG> tag

What does this mean?

Hi! If you're using FP it likes to add its 'own' tags. What are you using the attribute FP-TITLE for? You should really be using an alt="xxx" instead if it's inside the IMG tag,

Mark

p.s. I was going to mention the irony of your request, but refrained myself :)

try this:write 100 times: " I will use the alt tag and not the title tag". That should resolve it. <smile>

Ooooh! I guess though, if FP just adds it anyway it's more time-consuming to get round. Unless you're adding that attribute manually?

RE: Teacher needs help! - 7/2/2004 16:46:48   
LOL...I figured that was coming (the irony of my post) LOL...ok, well I don't know anything about the attribute FP-TITLE, I just know when I ran the browser compatibility test; that's one of the errors of many that came up. The other errors had the FP-STYLE attribute message. I'm using a dynamic web template for my site, which I believe is the reason this error keeps coming up. Since I'm just registered for this post I'm unable to upload any files.

Now how do I fix this?

Have you uploaded the pages? i.e. do you have a URL? Nice template you have there :)

How many pages do you have at the minute? I could have a look at the template if you wanted to e-mail me it. If that's OK with everyone else? If I can't work it out I can refer you onto Dan (dpf) or Dan (Giomanach) or Gill (jaybee)

[edit]OK, I'll take a look now, forget about the e-mail!![/edit]

teacher: review mark's code carefully for this tag:
<apple type="redshiney">
I bet it will be prevalent!!!!

RE: Teacher needs help! - 7/2/2004 17:11:31   
OK OK Dan!!! To be honest, I've never seen code like that before! If it's native to FP I'm not too familiar with it. I know for sure you can replace

fp-title="home"

with

alt="home"

Then again though, there are alt tags in there.

fp-style="fp-btn: Brick Column 1; fp-font-size: 12" fp-title="home"

I can see you need to remove the initial fp- but will this cause the code to stop working?

Any other comments Dan? (on the question that is!!)

Have you tried looking at it in other browsers? This looks like it's to do with Microsoft's wonderful new invention called Smart Tags. As far as I'm aware they only work with IE6 onwards. This may just be a warning message.

Now you're going to ask me what smart tags are. :)

Ok what are smart tags? LOL...And how do i get the other hyperlinks to work for my interactive buttons?...I'm the "techno-savy" teacher at my school, but I don't have much experience with coding, html, etc...and I thank you guys for being excellent teachers.

RE: Teacher needs help! - 7/2/2004 17:54:16   
OK, if you want to know all the in- and outs read this

http://www.alistapart.com/articles/smarttags/

at the most basic level a smart tag is a list of words. If you have smart tags turned on in IE6 then evry time you load a page, the list of words is checked and if a match is found that word gets underlined and automatically turned into a hyperlink to another page. What that page is depends on who generated the smart tag.

For example. If you have a smart tag generated by Dell stored on your Dell machine, every time it finds a relevant word on a page you are visiting it'll hyperlink it to a Dell page.

You may not want your visitors hopping off to Dell.

What are you using to build your page? Some of that code looks highly suspect.

I gathered that. What I meant was where did you get the template from that you're using? Is it a FP one? There seems to be chunks missing.

Hi jay, I've never seen any of that code before! Could be smart tags as you say. Definitely appears to be a Microsoft thing! Seems to be defining a button style with a text overlay, there must be an easier way without going Microsoft?

Yep! Well I'll leave it with you for now, I'm tired so I'm off to bed! Hope you get to the bottom of it! If all else fails, try a new template or start from scratch. Usually the best methods! Mark

Mr Jones Sir,

It's now a ridiculous hour over in the old country and the land of nod is calling.

I'll have another check in the morning. Is there a reason why you've gone for a dynamic template rather that a standard layout?

First thing you should check is why the hyperlinks aren't applied to any buttons apart from the last one. Right click on the button and choose hyperlink from the dropdown.

As far as the error message goes I wouldn't worry about it unless it's coming up in other browsers.

Night. :)
