Re: One Giant Long Word When Pasting to MW
Thank you for the website suggestions and for letting me know everything is clean.
While I was waiting for you to get back to me I did a little test on my website concerning your justified settings. I took one block of script and used left justified and then launched the website live. I then cut and pasted the test section into Microsoft Word and it came up perfectly readable with all the appropriate spaces. Acorn, you are a genius and thank you so much.
I'll be getting back to you concerning your website fix suggestions but I'll try to take it on my own so that I don't bother you so much.
Thank you again so very, very much!!!
Re: One Giant Long Word When Pasting to MW
Acorn, may I ask for your help. I'm not sure if I should start a new thread but I thought I might start here so that you may remember my website errors that you mentioned.
I did follow your directions and I got rid of a lot of my bad external links but what I cannot fix or figure out on my own is the 404 errors listed below. Any help on how to find and fixes would be greatly appreciated. I do stress the word "find" because I cannot find these 404 errors at all.
You know it's funny that when I scan one page at a time using the Broken Link Checker Tool none of the below 404 errors are identified but when I scan my entire website the five 404 errors are seen.

Re: One Giant Long Word When Pasting to MW
Hi Again. These aren't broken links. You have no broken links. Broken Link Checker Tool looks for html links written such:
<a href="url">link text</a> and checks to see if the link is valid.
What you have are missing images. These missing images seem to be part of HighSlide which is included if you have a small image on the site that when you mouse-over or click loads a larger image. Your site doesn't use HighSlide from what I can see. These images aren't within your https://cabinetmakerscustombuilt-inb...ndex_htm_files files folder so I don't know what program your using to find missing images that you're not using.
By the way access to your index_htm_files folder shouldn't be available like yours is for security reasons ;)
EDIT: Yes, the call's for HighSlide images is on your video page. Why something is calling for these assests and they're not available on your site is probably down to the code you're using to invoke the youtube videos.
Re: One Giant Long Word When Pasting to MW
Thank you Egg Bramhill for such an excellent and detailed reply!!!
May I ask, have I posted something on this forum that I should not have for security reasons?
Re: One Giant Long Word When Pasting to MW
No, not here (on this forum) it's that your asset folder of your website (which contains all your .jpg, .png, .css files etc), which Xara creates on your server named 'index_htm_files' should not be open for public viewing due to security issues.
If you try to open mine on my webserver at https://www.parkeston.com/index_htm_files/ you get a 403 Forbidden notice but if you try yours at https://cabinetmakerscustombuilt-inb...dex_htm_files/ you can view it's content.

In your case, you would also have to block xr_files.txt being accessed and I have no guarantee Xara does not need this.

Re: One Giant Long Word When Pasting to MW
Thanks, Acorn and Egg
It sounds like I'm safe but I'm just a cabinet maker who built his own website and some of the talk you talk is like a foreign language to me sometimes so please excuse me if I ask you to rephrase another way.
Anyway, Acorn seems to know that I am secure with what little I have.
I'll keep picking at it concerning your suggestions and make it better.
Thank you, group!!!
Re: One Giant Long Word When Pasting to MW
Thanks for the clarification Acorn. I always had my index_htm_files folder opening as per Agains, and it often cam in useful but my ISP insisted that the file was unavailable in that manner and insisted it was changed, which they did for me. Therefore I have followed their advice. Thankyou for the clarification.
I take it the xr_files.txt is a file updated bt Xara each time the site is published, thus knowing which files to keep and which to delete?
