Charlicon Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I have opted for free web hosting. The only obvious downside to this is the adverts. Now, it's only a banner at the top of page, but the thing is distorting my banner. It only seems to behave itself when my site is coded with just plain HTML, if I use any JavaScript the thing screws my banner graphic up. I'm sure theres a way to hack this, maybe by using <APPLET> tags in the head? I'm not technical enough to figure this out and was wondering if anybody could get me started with how I go about getting around this. Thanks.

Sparda Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 write some javascript in to your page that removes the banner? Of course this will only work if people who view your site have javascript enabled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unasoto Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 do you have any control over where the banner is could you frame it? I know very basic html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlicon Posted March 30, 2007 Author Share Posted March 30, 2007 I don't know of any JavaScript to get rid of this banner. The only thing I could come up with in the end was this.. <link rel="stylesheet" href="p.css" type="text/css" /> <script language="JavaScript1.2" type="text/javascript" src="a.js"></script> </head> (end of my actual <HEAD> <noscript> <body> <------ The code I thought would take the banner out. </noscript> <body border="0" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"> <----- My actual <BODY> Am I placing this code in the wrong area? Or is it just the wrong code? Frames wouldn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deleted Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 If you still want to go with a free host you may want to go for 50Webs. They dont put adverts on the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlicon Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 I don't see MYSQL being hosted with the free account for 50webs, and seen as I like tinkering with forum software, that won't do. I may as well just spend $3 a month I guess. Thanks anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
