HTML help

[Nightfire]

Hey guys, I'm needing some help with html coding. I'm looking for a few things,

One is how to create a button that when you click takes you to the top of the page, I found a site said it would who this but it ended up not <_<

Also I want to learn how to create polls on a website and text fields that people can submit on it. I guess a blog? I'm not fully sure.

I was also wanting to know if it there's a site or sites that explain that and how to make it where you have to login to use them.

Help would greatly be appreciated.

I aint got much time now and i forgot a lot of what i knew but i the button that brings you to the top of the page is something to do with #top or something.

For a poll you need to know PHP, or just search google for a Poll script.
Text fields are easy, http://www.google.co.uk/search?num=3...G=Search&meta=
Sorry if that aint much help.

One is how to create a button that when you click takes you to the top of the page, I found a site said it would who this but it ended up not <_<

You start with an anchor and then a link. an anchor is written like this

<a name="changethis">First sentence of the page here.</a>

Then create a link to that anchor by using # in front of the anchors name. Like so.

<a href="#changethis">Top of Page</a>

You can put an anchor anywhere on the page. But if you want it to link to the top of the page, then you need to put it on the very top of the page. Around a header image for example, would be an ideal place for the anchor.

Also I want to learn how to create polls on a website and text fields that people can submit on it. I guess a blog? I'm not fully sure.

This requires knowledge of PHP, Java, or any number of other net based programming languages. HTML is, by itself, completely static. That means that it can not change itself based on user interaction. Therefore HTML can't be used to (by itself) to create a poll, or a user comment section. Try Wordpress for a decent free blog CMS.

I was also wanting to know if it there's a site or sites that explain that and how to make it where you have to login to use them.

Wordpress can be setup to require users to log in. You can of course, password protect any page... but that's not really what you're looking for. Just google "Password protect website" for alittle more info on that.

P.S. moved thread to html section.

didn't really read through the thread to see if your problem got answered yet, so i will give my advice.

A good place to learn all of htis is at http://www.w3schools.com

to have the button thing that will take you to the top of the page. umm, not remembering it off hand right now, but it is simple. W3schools shows you how.

For polls or blogs, you need to know PHP, you can get pre made stuff for yourself, but they are normally crap and have limetations, so leanr PHP and write your own. Once you get the basics it will seem like and easy language to use.

I am a beginner with PHP as of now, but i did write a pretty nify news system not to long ago.

I think you just to put '#top' in your link. It always worked for me
