TOP

17. Do you hide my ugly web address?
Yes. When registering you can choose to put your site in Stealth mode or not. With this option on your website address will not show in the address bar.

TOP

18. Why does my website address remain when linking to other pages?
As a result of requesting your site be accessed via Stealth URL mode (hiding your real address) a frame is placed around your website and any activity within your site is conducted in the frame. There are two methods to link to external sources or link out of the framed invironment:
change all your external links (the ones not going to another page on your site) to:
<a href="http://www.other-web-site.com" target="_top"> or if you want to open another window
<a href="http://www.other-web-site.com" target="_blank">
It is even easier to add this below your <head> tag
<head>
<base target="_top">
...
this will make all links open with their respective URL's showing in the address bar. Then if you have a few links you want to remain within the frame use this as a model for the link:
<a href="http://www.this-site.com/my-next-page.html" target="_self">

19. Why do I get a script error when going to my site?
Some free hosts detect when a site in their stable of websites is being surrounded by frames and will call a Javascript error. Below is Javascript code to suppress the error that happens most often. Place the code above your Meta Tags code deirectly below the <head> tag. Some free host providers will not find this acceptable because it is not only suppressing their JavaScript error alert it is more than likely also disabling the function or process the original call was attempting to make. The easiest solution is to find a host that is more manageable.
<head>
<!--Begin CyberLink StopError --->
<script>
function StopError(){ return true }
window.onerror=StopError
</script>
<!--End CyberLink StopError --->
</head>

20. What about META tags?
During the registration process you can supply these or login to your member's account and edit your information by adding them after registration.

TOP

21. How do I copy and Paste
In the document that contains the information you want to move, drag your mouse pointer over the information until your selection is highlighted. On the Edit menu, click Copy (or use your right mouse button). In the document where you want the information to appear, click the place where you want to put the information or highlight the text you want to replace. On the Edit menu, click Paste (or use your right mouse button). The information is removed from the original document and is placed in its new location.
