Hi! I'm curious about how the pages load on your site? When you click on a link, it immediately updates that part of the page instead of how it normally refreshes everything on the page before it loads the next one. I've been dealing with that and I figured it out by putting the navigation on my site on an iframe instead of the main page. But how did you do it? I'm not sure if you used Javascript?

Hi! My site pages are currently normal HTML pages and don't make use of frames, JavaScript or special techniques for page loading. The Static Ultra project and site at https://scott2.neocities.org/static-ultra/ does do that however, and iirc it boils down to a combo of parsing the URL, URL rewriting, xmlHttpRequest and innerHTML. Feel free to view the source on any page you'd like to see the HTML/CSS/JS for, you...

Unless you possibly meant my new site at wordpress.com (which I don't think you did, but maybe). In which case the technical side is all handled by wordpress.com and I don't worry about it haha. xD

Nah don't worry, I meant this one! But thank you so much! I got really confused about all of this. That's really really good that you got all of this running without any Javascript. Not saying JS is bad, don't get me wrong. I like keeping things as light-weight as possible

I was actually planning on using your Static Ultra project for my site at one point, but it goes by a specific layout.... and I have one already. But I still think it's great and for sure it'd help a lot of people make a website on here

My site as of right now isn't updated on here, it's way more updated on my computer. I plan on updating it in the future. But instead of using an iframe for the pages, I switched it over to using the navigation as a frame. But I want to look into this eventually -

Oh I got that wrong on "without any javascript", you don't use javascript or special techniques like you said for the part of loading the page. I think I said that the wrong way, you can correct me

I can relate. I used Wordpress before Neocities but went off it for various reasons, but chose Blogspot for my A.I. Conversations, for simplicity.

This (or something similar) is also a viable option for new/free Neocities accounts which I believe are unable to use Disqus due to some kind of cross site policy thingeh.

those ads are ridiculous, it's like adding a widget from some shady "news" agregator, so glad there is a repracement for that functionality

Whew, that's all the link rel=canonicals and other meta tags all sorted on every page on my site and every page on every project. Well, except the ones where I've inevitably made a mistake or just plain missed it! 🙃

😼 Meooow! The pet poll placed presently on my site is at 90 votes total so far. Cat is winning by FAR with 44 votes. Dog is second place with 19 votes. I voted Cat myself, but I'm surprised! I thought the vote count would be a lot closer than this.
