Problems with server?
Mood:  not sure
For a few days now my blog hasn't been viewable. It says server error or can't find server. I tried viewing other peoples blogs and they don't show up either. Is Angelfire server down right now? or is it my computer. I tired restarting my computer but still no luck.

Also having images problems
Mood:  not sure
Now Playing: https://www.angelfire.com/in4/theuleryfamily
Topic: Image Questions
Like the post below I have my files uploaded and all the HTML is correct. When I go to view the pages some of my images do not show up. However, if I right click and hit show picture it pops right up. This happens on random pictures/buttons even on my own computer. How can I fix this problem? I do not think the picture files are big..the pages are each 4-5k.

Lost on the links
Mood:  quizzical
Now Playing: Two of my pages don't load right...help!
Topic: HTML Questions
I have been making html websites for about 3 years now and I can't figure this out. All of my html is correct as far as I can tell but when I click on two of my links on my index page both of the pages to the links act as if they are loading but then they stop. Then starting from the bottom of the page I start getting what looks like binary coding and it continues to progress up the page until it covers it. My brother is a computer programer and I asked him about it. He thinks there is something going on with the angelfire server but I am not sure. If anyone knows what is going on and can tell me how to fix this problem please email me at sweetkschick@earthlink.net or just post an answer on here for me. Thanks. Take care.

Pop Up's???
Mood:  irritated
Topic: HTML Questions
All of the sudden my site is opening a search window along side the left of my page. I can close it, but it is way more irritating than the pop ups that used to come w/ the site. I have no idea how these started or if I can make them quit. Is this something I did, or is it Angelfire??? Anyone else having this problem?

On our own
I think were on our own here. I wish they had a board where someone who knew what was going would actually answer. These are not life threatening problems but annoying ones nonetheless. I am not so sure I would pay for a piece of this server when it is so hard to get through to anyone. I think I will look for a more personable company to handle my web needs.

Bite the bullet?
Mood:  quizzical
Now Playing: poetry/arosebyanyother
I've been thinking about going ahead and upgrading my El Cheapo account to one of Angelfire's paid plans. Does anyone have any thoughts or comments on whether or not this is worth my while?

It's just a blog... is it worth the money? Or would anyone recommend any other host?

frames, links, anger
Mood:  irritated
Topic: HTML Questions
Hello,
I have had my webpage for 5 yrs now, and I have never had any problems, but all of a sudden last week without me altering any of my code it suddenly stopped working. The problem is related to the two frames that I have. I have a left frame which is my menu and a right frame. All of my outside links are directed to open in new window - like this [a href= "whatever" target='new']whatever[/a] (with triangle brackets rather than square of course). This worked up until last week, now it will only work for a few of the links, it will actually only work for the angelfire ones, everything else opens in the current window. It is very annoying, does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? Or experiencing the same problem? Some suggestions I have had is to change target='new'to target='_blank'. This does not help. ANother suggestion I had is that frames are so old now that they don't work anymore and I should use a style sheet instead, but I can't see this to be the case.

www.angelfire.com/country/GIRL2002

The links that don't work are all the ones under links (left hand frame) that are not angelfire pages. They all open in the left frame


Also does anyone know how to email angelfire??

HTML Linking Problems
Mood:  irritated
Topic: HTML Questions
I've used HTML for a long time and have had no problem with it before as a FREE member, but recently I tried linking with the [a href=link]link text[/a] ([] replacing <> so you can see what coding I'm using) tag and I always get redirected to an Angelfire error page that says "Angelfire does not allow the downloading of certain files to protect visitors from viruses." Can anyone tell me what the problem is here?

Upgrading Account
Mood:  irritated
Now Playing: How long until accounts are actually updated??
I've been trying to update my Angelfire account. I get a message screen saying:

"Thank you, ms/joyceanderson! You have successfully changed your Angelfire account. Activate your account and start building!"

but my account still shows up as "free" in my profile, and I still have those pesky ads. I hope I don't get charged the upgrade fee a million times. When will it be done? Thanks for all your help!

image links
I am having trouble with linking an img from my angelire website. It is a jpg img but I only get the small " this image is hosted by angelfire.com" picture, They used to work fine until recently.I know the links are correct and the names of the files are correct. Any ideas on this? I was thinking maybe for some reason they do not allow you to link images from your webspace unless you have an upgraded account. I hope this is not the case.

Angelfire
Mood:  quizzical
Topic: HTML Questions
So, what's the deal with the so-called on going error that Angelfire has with banner ads?

Non-paying members who use CSS are just supposed to put up with these ridiculous ads displaying over their site content?

Anybody have any suggestions on how to overcome this problem? Any possible patches or compromises to get their ads off my text?

Look at this mess: www.angelfire.com/poetry/arosebyanyother

uploading a front page site
Mood:  lyrical
Topic: FrontPage
Hi!

I've just been updating my website and finally got around to uploading a front page site. However, (and this happened with my previous site too) i can't upload any changes to it now, or write over the existing changes - it says access is forbidden, or something to do with the server.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
