At times, it might be needed to hide any widget which might not be needed temporarily without deleting it. So, to do that, define a CSS with the id of the widget and then include the following code, visibility:hidden; For example, #widget1 { //other CSS contents; visibility:hidden; } Where widget1 is the id of the widget. To redisplay the widget you simple need to remove the visibility option.

It is a good practice to always include comments inside your cascading style sheets, for easy references later. Just use the /* sequence to begin the comment followed by the comments you want to type in. And then end the comment with */. e.g.: /* comment here */ Note: comments can be multi line.

You can make use of the img tag to resize a picture using HTML. Just give the width and height to which you want to reduce your picture to in a browser. Note that, the original dimensions of the picture won’t change; the picture will only be adjusted and displayed to the dimensions you have specified in the img tag. Eg: <img src=”the URL of the image here” width =”200px” height = “200px” /> So no matter whatever the image size is, it will be shown in the height and width you specify.

You might have seen in a lot of websites like Wikipedia that there are a lot of links pointing to various portions of the same page. This can be done easily in HTML by use of two simple tags. First create the link using the following tag: Go here Then place the following tag just before the place, where you want to navigate: (Don’t forget to close tags appropriately) The above link will appear like this: Go here When clicked it will search for the tag with the name “link” and will go there( it will not work here though). You can use any name value in the place of the link tag as used here and the corresponding name should be used in the href tag as well. Note that in the first href tag there is a # symbol which is not present in the second name tag.

When search engines crawl your website, they look for the links in your site as well. The text of the link is also very important, because search engines also note this. Since each and every post in your blog has its own link, you must make sure that these links are quite meaningful. When you publish your post in blogger, the first few words are selected for making up for the link of that post. For example, if the title of the post is “how to blog using flock in blogger”, then the link would be something like http://blogname.com/......../how-to-blog-using-flock.html In the example above, if the blog title does not contain the “in blogger” text. But it would be better if the link were http://blogname.com/......../blog-using-flock-in-blogger.html So to do that, first publish the post with the suitable title which you want to have as the link. Then after publishing, you can change the title to a more detailed one. Note by changing the blog posts title, the blog URL does not change.

Pinging is the process of making the search engines know that your site has been updated. Especially blogs which are of course updated weekly or sometimes daily have to be pinged often.

When people who have slow speed broadband connections, visit WebPages that load slower they do not come to that website again. At least in most cases they will try to avoid these WebPages. This will be a great deal and will cost you a lot of traffic. So let us see the various ways by which we shall reduce the time of loading of WebPages. JavaScript: JavaScript is one thing in your WebPages which will make your page load really slower.

So avoid using too much JavaScript in your WebPages.Especially the ones from the other sites. Images: Images make the page look good and pleasing but when the page is too much populated with images then there will be a time delay to download all these pictures in the first place. So minim...

Many people put a lot of quality content in their websites or blogs but they do not get that much popularity. Do you know the reason? It is because many people do not care of the presentation and navigational features of the website or the blog. I find a lot of blogs which contain a lot of good articles, but when I want to search in to the blog, I find no search box for searching inside the blog. This is quite a common problem in various blogs. Even though these blogs have quite good information, due to the navigational issues people just leave the blog. It is very important that people concentrate on the presentation of the blog along with the contents. The following are some issues where bloggers and webmasters have to work on to improve the navigational power of the blog or site: Categorize the contents in your blog or site in a neat manner in your sidebar. This will not only improve the navigational features, but will also tell the visitors what kind of subjects your site de...

Well after creating your own blog or website you may want others (your friends) to know about it. But you cannot nag everyone by telling that you have a blog. An easy and a great way to do it, is to include the blog in your email signature. An email signature is like a visiting card. The people who receive your email will also receive the URL of your blog.

Your signature will notify the reader of the email that you seem to have a blog and might check it out and may be he will like it. In Google (Gmail) you can set the signature by going to settings ------> general----->> Signature: (appended at the end of all outgoing messages) Just type in your blog URL in the text box provided and then save your settings. Now your blog URL will be appended at the end of all the out going emails. Similarly you can also add your signatures in your yahoo id as well. Go...

However it works in Mozilla, Firefox, opera etc. It should also be noted that, blinking text might be harmful for people with image disorders and might even make the page unclear and annoying to read.
