Thread: Phil

Complete novice in the process of designing web pages. How do I add a link to a page such as currency converter, local temperature etc. I have downloaded XE currency converter to my winzip which comes up as samp-ucc.htm but I cannot cut or copy it to my page. My domain name is www.gobantayan.com

Could you provide a link to the download website so we can take a look at it and see how it is implemented?

Andy

O.K. Andy the site I want to put on my web page is;www.xe.com/ucc/

Hi, if you go to this link http://www.xe.com/ucc/samp-ucc.txt & copy all the code & paste it into a html box on the front of your BV page. Then press preview.
The only downside with this? Is when someone clicks on the converter they leave your site.
Only as an idea & a bit of a cheat. Place an Inline frame on your page with this url http://www.hifx.co.uk/currency/converter.asp as the target field. Or you could use a few different variations on this. Was playing with a test one here http://www.collectors-info.com/testing/c-converter.html

Nicely done Chris !

Cheers-
Andy

O.K. many thanks for that, will give it a try and let you know result. Probably take me a while as very slow at all this.

Hi Chris,

What happened to the Malaysian Ringgit [Myr]? It is not in your converter?

Hi Chris, both of those work fine the only problem being that the url http://www.hifix.co.uk/currency/converter.asp which is the one I would prefer as do not lose page does not convert Philippine pesos which is the one I want, talk about sods law!!!!! Anyway will use xe converter, sure anyone interested in my site will come back.
While on this subject can you give me a site to display temperature and weather in Cebu Philippines????
Many thanks.
