Making Video Stream 100% XHTML 1.0 Transitional

Posted: Mon Oct 13, 2008 8:29 pm

I have worked just about ALL the bugs out of The Video Stream MOD to make it 100% XHTML 1.0 Transitional. (Well the layout page anyway!)

I am stuck on this form.

Am I missing something STUPID here or do I jsut need to rewrite the darn thing!

Code:

<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10">





  <tr valign="top">


    <td nowrap="nowrap">


    <form name="order" method="post" action="">


      <b>Order Videos By:</b><br />


      <select name="orderby">


        <option value="0" >Newest</option>


        <option value="1" >Oldest</option>





        <option value="2" >Highest Rated</option>


        <option value="3" >Most Viewed</option>


        <option value="4" >Alphabetically</option>


      </select>


    </td>


    <td nowrap="nowrap">


      <b>Display By Category:</b><br />





      <select name="categoryby">


        <option value="0" >All</option>


        <option value="5" >Commercials</option>


        <option value="6" >Ouch</option>


        <option value="7" >Music</option>


        <option value="11" >Off the Shelf</option>





        <option value="9" >Rough Water Stuff</option>


        <option value="10" >Funny Stuff</option>


      </select>


    </td>


    <td nowrap="nowrap">


      <br /><input type="submit" name="sortvids" value="Sort" />


    </td><td width="100%" nowrap="nowrap"><form name="search" method="post" action="modules.php?name=Video_Stream&amp;page=search">


    </td>





    <td nowrap="nowrap">


      <div align="center"><b>Search Videos</b><br />


      <input name="search" type="text" size="35" value="" /></div>


    </td>


    <td nowrap="nowrap">


      <br /><input type="submit" name="searchvid" value="Search" />


    </td>


  </tr>





</table>

I can fix the table stuff No Problem! What I am having a problem with is the form itself. I am thinking I am missing something stupid.

Tidy complains of missing the </form> x2 but if I insert them....the form breaks. I can rewrite the form and make it right....but was curious if I am just missing something cause I have been looking at it too long!

Thank you for the help!

Since the form starts inside a table column, it wants to end inside that column. That's not what you want. Declare the form outside the entire table of fields you want attached to that form

I busted it out into 2 tables. Seems to have gotten it done.

Thanks for the help. I am sure I will a couple "Snags" before it is said and done.

I can not seem to get this to work correctly.

I have to change the embed type to opject type but I can not get it to work correctly.

This is existing....

Code:

$embedcode = "<embed type=\"application/x-mplayer2\" pluginspage=\"http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/Downloads/Contents/MediaPlayer/\" width=\"".$row['width']."\" height=\"".$row['height']."\" src=\"".$row['url']."\" filename=\"".$row['url']."\" autostart=\"True\" showcontrols=\"True\" Volume=\"100\"  id='mediaPlayer' displaysize='4' autosize='-1'  showstatusbar=\"True\" showdisplay=\"False\" autorewind=\"True\"></embed>";

This is what it should look like.

Code:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" style="width:425px; height:350px;" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/7_6B6vwE83U"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7_6B6vwE83U" /></object>

Would ya'll be kind enough to show me the error of my ways?

OK....So I have 2 questions.....

IE handles this correctly...

Code:

function loadvidpop(id, height, width) {


   window.open('modules.php?name=Video_Stream&page=vidpop&id='+id+'','','scrollbars=no,menubar=no,height='+height+',width='+width+',resizable=yes,toolbar=no,location=no,status=no');


}

It comes out as..... [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

FF inserts the amp;
[ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

What do I do about this? I have searched and searched....but I can't find anything that applies?

The & should be in the code

try

Code:




function loadvidpop(id, height, width) {


   window.open('modules.php?name=Video_Stream&amp;page=vidpop&amp;id='+id+'','','scrollbars=no,menubar=no,height='+height+',width='+width+',resizable=yes,toolbar=no,location=no,status=no');


}
