Billie, It can be done more simply as:- <div id="336" class="person">336.</div> ... which means that any URL that had #336 appended to it would arrive at the correct page and "attempt" to drag the #336 id to the top of the page. If the page is too short, that may not be the case, but a little script can be used to highlight the correct div.

Judy, Further to Charles Dobie's comments. The 'name' attribute is deprecated and is replaced by the 'id' attribute, and complementary bottom to top and vice versa anchors should look like this:- <a id="top" href="#bottom">Bottom of Page</a> ...content in between <a id="bottom" href="#top">Top of Page</a> or check out the test page at:- http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~bristowe/test/page-top-test.html .... which works in all current browsers and back to a 1999 browser from MS, i.e. Internet Explorer 5.01 If I recall correctly, Xenu will always throw up an error on an internal anchor; its not a 'true' URL. The link that Google picked up to one of your Camp pics was probably a 'ping-back' type link created to earn the site using it a cent or two each time it is clicked. Google has picked it up as a valid link to your site. As you appear to have already done - renaming the image is the quick fix.

That's what I'm using Lorrie, Google's Webmaster Tools. Been using it since 2006 or 2007. These are crawl errors, from wrongly written links -- which creates a fictitious "page", which makes a "404 page not found". Google Webmaster Tools found no other problems, except these ten 404s, so I want to correct before I forget. BUT I just can't find them--- arggh.

Judy, Hi. There are probably many tools available to help you but I know do know of one: Google Webmaster Tools. It will display error pages on your site, who is linking to you site, the pages indexed (so you can find the pages that are hiding) and more. It is a tool for managing your site's online functionality. If you have a Google Account, you would need to add it to your account and verify website ownership. I don't know how long it will be before it will start logging site activity but you can request that Google index your site and add a sitemap, both of which should speed up the process of beginning to see site activity. Should you need help, there is a Google Webmaster Tools forum with knowledgeable people. Lorrie On 07/28/13 18:06, JFlorian wrote: > Google is reporting 10 pages as 404 in my family website.

Google is reporting 10 pages as 404 in my family website. I'm frustrated because I have looked endlessly using Frontpage "Find in html" and Windows "search inside files" and cannot find the items. For example, after ~florian/ it seems I put an open bracket, read in html code as %3E (percent 3E) -- I probably enclosed the whole URL with brackets, but it only shows it at the end of a URL, and as "a link" going to this *http://freepages.misc.rootsweb.com/~florian/%3E * (malformed link/URL). If I can find that bracket, it'd be an easy fix. Another one Google sees: http://freepages.family.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~florian/towns/ind (malformed URL/link) Neither of these pages are supposed to exist---I just erred in making a URL, like ind was probably meant to be index.htm The other 8 are also silly link errors, like typing cap I on a directory Images, when my folders are lowercase. But I can't find where it has cap on Images/ in my html on any page. Google says it is http://freepages.family.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~florian/schools/Images/1951_coke_ad_p6_charleroi-mail (malformed link/URL) How do I find these pesky errors when "Find" and "Search" doesn't find them in inside any page?

Judy, because of the way the Freepages server is configured, I don't think you have access to the top level in your account. The URLs we use for the various directories, e.g. http://freepages.family.rootsweb.com/~jflorian/ is the result of a symlink to http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~jflorian/family_html/ The latter is the location where you are actually uploading when you choose the family_html directory. Have you checked your misc_html directory? That is the default delivered when you use the URL http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~jflorian/ I wonder if it is also the default for ftp. The other possibility is that the files went nowhere, but because you aborted the transmission, Filezilla didn't have time to recognize that fact. Pat Asher
Judy wrote " I need a bold X put over the picture... I'm not great at drawing 'straight' lines." I'm not a Photoshop expert, but... It should be possible to overlay a text X on the pic and saves as a JPEG. Or, there should be a straight-line drawing feature, where you only to define the beginning and ending points of the line. Draw one diagonal line; copy and paste; then flip one line horizontally. Voila! An X. If you're getting pixelation, as another suggested, it's probably a resolution problem. -rt_/)
What happens when I forget to click the (online) directory? To explain--- After I connect with Filezilla, I change the PC side to "family" folder/dir. But, what happens if I forget to change the online side? First time, I had it 'above' my account directories -- ugh. I stopped it quick, but Filezilla is so fast I don't know what all uploaded. Second time, I had it 'on' the very top of my account, but forgot to click on "family" before it was all uploading. Third time--- I got both sides right. Soooo, where did the first 2 uploads go? Do I need to contact someone at the Help Desk to remove the "extra" files that didn't go where they should have gone?

GWS tindellfarm@gmail.com via rootsweb.com 10:02 AM (3 hours ago) to freepages-help You did not say what software you are using but, are you using feathering or anti-alias when drawing your 'X'? These will soften the pixals used to make the X graphic. Or, using the above, create the X as a seperate graphic, then place it over your picture as a transparent layer. You cannot really get rid of the zigzags but they will be softened and not noticeable unless you zoom in. == Yes, Photoshop 7. I haven't learned much about PS 7's capabilities. I can crop/resize/and do lousy repair of basic 'stains' on photos, but I don't know how to do layers, etc. Barry put the X right where I needed it on the photo. Thanks again Barry.

Or, using the above, create the X as a seperate graphic, then place it over your picture as a transparent layer. You cannot really get rid of the zigzags but they will be softened and not noticeable unless you zoom in.

I wondered if someone could do a photo alteration for me? It's a simple task but when I draw the X it is all squiggly. I have a 2-color photo 200px by 178px. I need a bold X put over the picture. The colors on the photo can be changed, and the color of the X doesn't matter, as long as the content and message of the photo is understandable. If anyone can help, let me know. Or if you can give step by step directions for Photoshop 7.0 that would be great...but I'm not great at drawing 'straight' lines. frown Judy
