Neocities

Hey, for some reason none of the main navigation links work on the enteringthedream.html page when using Firefox or Internet Explorer. They seem to work on Opera, though.

oh geez...seems you're right...i haven't the slightest clue why. how worrisome... :\ i don't know css very well, but the sensitivity of the buttons is kind of weird--even in Chrome and on Opera you have to click directly on the text for them to work. i'll consider going back to old-fashioned links, i think. thanks for the heads up, much appreciated! ♥

Put the anchor tags on the outside of the button instead of on the inside.

or use onclick to redirect.

HTML specs don't seem to like the idea of a link inside of a button, but, like quokka says, you could put the button inside of the anchor tags(even if it does work on Chrome). See here -> https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41275537/why-firexfox-and-ie-cannot-open-a-link-anchor-inside-a-button-button-tag You could also just ditch the button tags and style the anchors to give them the same look.

Buttons are really meant to be used if you're attaching them to a Javascript onclick event. But that would be complicating things more than is necessary for a page link...

on a side note, does anyone have any advice on how i can make links that jump to specific sections of my blog for my navigation bar? it's something i've wanted to do since i started my blog (like, links that take you to the start of each entry) but for some reason i can never get the code to work... ;w;

i'm using on the titles of my blog post and then trying to link them in my sidebar frame...maybe it's the frames that keep this sort of thing from working properly?

I think the problem might be because you're using just one iframe (I'm not that familiar with them, so I'm not a 100% sure, though). If the blog was built using regular old frames (or possibly two iframes) then the solution would be very easy, just have the links target the frame you want to open things in.

Although these days the use of frames is not really recommended in the first place.

I took a peak at your page source. In blognavi.html, change to: href="blog.html#December" target="_parent". In blog.html, remove the # in the anchor so it shows: id="December". I hope this helps!

thank you so much for trying to help me, everyone! ♥ ;w; it's much appreciated! sadly, still haven't managed any progress--it feels like the answer should be simple, but i think @anipike has the right idea...i'm being screwed over by my use of frames, lol. i'm gonna have to rethink this idea.

It looks like in blognavi.html the 'blog entry 1' link needs to be changed like thisoldrecliner said and everything should work then; I just tested it myself by downloading the pages and messing with the source code.

I'd actually known about Neocities since 2014 (I made a really bad account at potassiummcr.neocities.org and I never got back to it.) I decided to make another one that was better because I was interested in it. This was around September 2017. My old account was deleted, and I made a very angry blog post about it, but it's on the Wayback Machine if you want to embarrass me.

i was obsessed about 90s internet and dead sites. i wanted to have a place internet, so i gave it a go. my original url was full of unecessary hypens and embarrassment. over several months, i’ve made many redesigns. i remember when i had those gifs. (　ﾟдﾟ)

quite honestly, i found neocities through people's twitter about pages, after everyone got tired of twpf and listography. i'd always loved making websites from neopets and then tumblr though, so it was just easier to make a website on neocities instead of cheating and hosting it on tumblr.

I think I just found it on Google and decided to make a site in 2015. Later in 2016 I was into old Geocities sites and I remembered Neocities so I created coolman. Then for like a billion times I moved sites and I'm in (hopefully) my final form of jackomix.

Basically it was 2015, and was pissed that there were a lot of dead geocities links to the places I was trying to visit, so in my research and travels, I found out about not one, but two websites. The first one was geocities.ws, which looked cool as a geocities paritial archive.. but kinda shady as a hosting service (I was practicing HTML for coding competition back then, so hosting was a plus), but then I saw neo...

yudosai 6 years ago

...neocities. It looked nice, had a blossoming community of cool websites, and was really inspiring and cozy. So I jumped right on in. Like owlman I did/do have other sites. Before neocites I "ran" a blog on wordpress, a games website on webs, and a few HTML websites using dot.tk domains (I got in there before spammers/hackers found out about it) and Google Drive hosting. After google drive killed the hosting...

I used to write on wordpress and I got tired of the ads and the rigidity of the free themes and how the entire layout trashed when I tried looking at it in a text-only browser like lynx. plus, I wanted to make things like my 'weirdiverse' (basically website shitposts) and wordpress doesn't allow for custom html or css :(
