I have been onto a web hosting site who offer HTML validator checking, when I pointed it towards one of my HTML pages it came back with no character encoding found. Is there something needed to be done to my html pages before up loading them to the web (via FTP client) before publishing. I am new to this.
HTML, I have created a web site using HTML using WordPad, to which it works quite well in IE7 what do I do now
The character encoding statement goes in the head section of the page and tells the browser how to interpret any special characters in the page. A typical example:
%26lt;meta http-equiv=%26quot;content-type%26quot; content=%26quot;text/html; charset=UTF-8%26quot;%26gt;
If you want to use the standard pc/Windows extended ASCII characters, use charset=iso-8859-1.

if ur page is looking fine in IE7 then just upload it using an ftp client like %26quot;cute ftp%26quot;
no need to use an html validator till u see any problems with ur code.
just upload ur file and see how it looks on web.
all the best
Other Replys:hmm,. too bad,. then just don%26#039;t use it,. if u really wanted to check it,.. upload it even free ones such as geocities.... type on the wordpad SAVE AS %26lt;filename%26gt;.html
or better off,.. maybe u can learn basics but just introducing macromedia dreamweaver...
software i use to build html,.. with it, i could easily just drag and drop items i wanted for the site, and adjust sizes and move things visually with mouse.
Other Replys:Well if your web page works fine on IE7 on your local PC just upload via FTP or by other means (some free hosting websites give u options to upload html files from webpages). That should be it.

Other Replys:have you put the code thru a validator? try http://validator.w3.org/
Other Replys:Perhaps you have the wrong DOC type, or perhaps forgot to include the encoding statement. You might want to check out this: http://www.w3.org/QA/2002/04/valid-dtd-l... to ensure that you are using the correct one.
Also, here%26#039;s where you might want to validate your HTML or (X)HTML doc: http://validator.w3.org/
And your CSS can be validated here: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/

Other Replys:The DOC type is placed at the top of your file (html, xhtml, css, etc) it is used to tell the browser what type of data follows.
There are DOC types for different code types and to specify if it is strict or transitional etc.
If a DOC type is NOT specified then the browser will try to display it as standard HTML BUT a validation checker usually requires it to be able to check your code properly.
If the browser displays the page correctly then there is no problem in using the file as is BUT I would check your page with other browsers as well. IE does not always follow strict web guidelines and although your page displays nicely in IE it may not with other browsers and as a lot of people prefer to use something other than IE then you should make sure your code is correct. Try firefox as this is a very popular one and does follow web guidelines.
A lot of web design software will automatically add the DOC line to your code for you but as you are using notepad then you will have to do it manually.
I also commend you for learning HTML properly and using notepad will mean you don%26#039;t learn any bad habbits but I do sugest you download and use a web design package to make life easier. There are a lot of free ones and 2 I can recommend are:-
Maguma Studio (This is good for HTML, PHP, css, XHTML, javascript)
Cutepage (Not used it for awhile though as I have found Maguma to be ideal)
