Beautify it with Hyperlinks and Images!

Now the time comes for the webpages to have few graphical content (images) and hyperlinks*. Yes, this is about images and hyperlinks. The images on a webpage produces a pleasing and attractive effect on the observer's side. And if a webpage has within itself the doors which open to new pages, it calls for a great interactive interface.

The images on a webpage are managed by the image element in html; <img> tag in specific. The images are specified in the tag with the help of the path address it is situated on your local directory or on your server. This path is incorporated in the "src" or the source attribute of the <img> tag.

You also have the "height" and "width" attributes in the <img> tag in order to have a fixed area covered by the exact image you want no matter if its smaller or bigger than your requirement, you can always work it down to your need.

Test code : ( Use this code to display images in your page )

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>
My page still has a title within head tag
</title>
</head>
<body>
<img src="c:/images/image.jpg" width="104" height="142" />
</body>
<html>

Note: The address in your src attribute is subject to change with your image's location. Please give the location as per the format. And always remember to specify the correct extension for the image at the end eg: .jpg, .gif, .png etc.

Next is the hyperlinks to direct to a new page or address with a single click on the specified link. As we know the internet works on the interconnection of html documents across the websites. These links which provide a gateway to the other pages are the hyperlinks. We can create links easily with the <a> tag or Anchor tag and its attribute "href" which stores the reference address to which the page is to be directed and the text for link is displayed between the opening and closing tags. The anchor tag makes it a task of few character to divert to a new address from a link.

Test code : ( Use this code to direct to google.com by clicking the link )

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>
My page still has a title within head tag
</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="http://www.google.com/">This is a link</a>
</body>
<html>

NOTE: The above link will redirect the page to "google.com" when you click the text "This is a link" in the browser. Make notice that nothing about the address google.com will be displayed in the browser only the text between the anchor tag "This is a link" will be displayed.
Do type the "http://" before the address google.com else it may not work.

How to open any installed application on MAC OS X using Terminal !

MAC OS X 10.9 is one of the finest operating systems used in the business as well as household purposes. Considering the unix side of the operating system, it becomes beneficial to be able to do trivial stuff like opening any app directly from the command line interface, i.e. Terminal in this case. There are a lot of other uses that a utility like terminal can offer you but for the instant purpose, let us find out how to open any of the installed applications on your MACINTOSH using the terminal. I will be working with few of the application I have installed on my system. You are free to choose your own. The general syntax for the command is : open -a application_name If you want to open the application as a super user, just prefix the command with sudo : sudo open -a application_name Test commands : (Use these commands one-by-one to open the specified applications) open -a textmate open -a bbedit open -a firefox open -a opera open -a finder open -a mail Watc...

How to program pyramids using loops - 2

In this video tutorial, two of the more patterns have been discussed that relates to the similar pattern problems. What's different about these are that they also include spaces before the stars as a part of the pattern to be printed. Having this extra sub pattern to track spaces in the desired pattern requires an extra loop to track and control it . For a brief review, We discussed that these patterns if observed carefully are just representation of tables i.e. a combination of rows and columns . And few of the cells in that table are populated with some data according to a logically programmed algorithm with represents a pattern. In these cases, the red triangles shows us the spaces represented by "sp" and therefore unlike the previous pattern these need to be managed by the loop as they occur before the stars in the pattern. So, taking the same approach of rows and columns managing loops, we will have an outer loop that tracks the rows which will start at 0...

How to program pyramids using loops

While programming, beginners do come up with some form of pyramid to be printed using any kind of loops in most programming languages. This video presentation clarifies the basic concept behind coding these pyramids in any programming language and explains how these loops can be created and manipulated to obtain different outputs. If you visualize properly, these pyramids are mere TABLES, combination of rows and columns. Having said that, we can understand that there needs to be a logic to control both rows and columns of the table and do that in such a way that the desired pattern is obtained. For doing so, we use two loops in case of a simple pyramid , one for the rows and other for the columns. Since, the general convention is to represent the rows prior to columns , assuming the same, the outer loop tracks the rows and the inner loop tracks the columns. The outer loop is fairly simple and is defined starting from 0 or 1 depending on your preference in most of the cases ...
