RE: Is my tutorial understandable?
good, clean and short tutorial Hobbes (Y)

one small bit though: the download link isn't right:
http://www.hobbes.subhost.com.ar/www.hobbes.subho...hp?file=avatar.php
This must obviously be:
http://www.hobbes.subhost.com.ar/download.php?file=avatar.php


If you put www.hobbes.subhost.com.ar/download.php?file=avatar.php then that's a relative link, meaning it will be put together with the main page's link and thus you'll get:
http://www.hobbes.subhost.com.ar/www.hobbes.subhost.com.ar/.....
so iether change it to:
http://www.hobbes.subhost.com.ar/download.php?file=avatar.php to make it an absolute link. Or:
download.php?file=avatar.php to make it simply and relative to the main page URL.


;)

EDIT: John Anderton was first... :p

----------

Also the html page avatar_script.htm: It doesn't contain the proper HTML tags!

Every html page must consist of:
<html>
  <body>
  </body>
</html>
even when they are frames... So the page avatar_script.htm must be like this (just as other pages):
<html>
  <head>
    <meta (...)>
    <style>
      (...)
    </style>
  </head>
  <body>
    (...)
  </body>
</html>

Remove that to avoid confusion and that looks a bit bad imo .... just say 'at' ;)
U need to correct the link to the site i told u. It currently sayz
code:
http://www.hobbes.subhost.com.ar/www.100webspace.com
I see that all ur links are screwed up :S Even the php download one :S
The php download one shows
code:
http://www.hobbes.subhost.com.ar/www.hobbes.subhost.com.ar/download.php?file=avatar.php

So u need to correct these things ..... these werent there last time i checked.
Hmm i already changed the @ part but i forgot to upload it :refuck:

Ok the first half i did when John told me the errors i just got someone to explain it to me :)
I dont understand why the meta and all the <body> stuff are so important. I added it anyway but not to the frame.. I think its fine how it is :P Does it change anything cookie?

Sorry for double post btw. i just believe it will be to big and it shouldnt be edited.

It is not fine. Those tags are a must, mandatory, not-optional, ... It is how html works! The reason why it works without those tags is because your browser doesn't bother sticking to the protocol. :D

It like if would leave out some words in sentence, you still would understand sentence though, but isn't proper English.

EDIT: additional tip: put a background color on your page (in the <body> tag, or stylesheed). Not all browsers are set to white for their background color ;)

not only professional, it will be proper html. Html which will work on all browsers... It has actually not much todo with being professional, it is how you MUST do it ;)

You also don't go writing a program without declaring/initializing variables and without a button to close the program ;) (lame example, but still :p)

look at how you created home.htm... avatar_script.htm should be the same (thus including <html>, <head>, <body>, etc...)

I think that he's trying to maintain the overall black and white feel that is presented in Hobbes + Calvin...
