I'm from Sydney, NSW, Australia and currently attending my first term of Year 12 (my final year) of high school. Myself, and a few of my friends and peers have chosen to make a website for our major project for Design and Technology and have chosen to use BlueVoda to do it. We all have a common problem, I have my own problem, and one of my friends has his own problem.
1) Our common problem is that when we edit our sites on computers other than our usual one, the images can't be found by the program. And all the school computers are set up the same, so our USB drives are ALWAYS G: drive. And we edit straight to our USB drives (we never move our files off them). This becomes a problem on days that we're timetabled into other computers, or working on it at home, because we can't get a real sense of what the final product will look like (unless we re-browse for the images, and then next lesson re-browse again, which wastes alot of valuable time). It also becomes a problem because until we get our sites hosted, we won't be able to take it to professional website designers, which is a large chunk of our mark (feedback from professionals). Can anyone tell us what is happening (why it happens) and what we can do about it?
2) My personal problem is that all the shapes on my pages are supposed to be different colours, and are in BlueVoda. But when I preview, they all turn the colour of the most recently added shape. If I add a new one, they all become that colour. If I remove the most recently added one, they all become the colour of the next most recently added shape. Once again, Can anyone tell me what is happening (why it happens) and what I can do about it?
3) My friends personal problem is that he can't hyperlink objects other than text. He sets it up properly (opens the object properties, clicks the hyperlink button, types the target, etc.), But when he previews, it doesn't even come up with the hand as if it's a hyperlink. Also, a common problem to all of us, in hyperlinks that do work, they are to .bvp files (we won't fix them to our URL until we host it, because we want it to be functional for now), but because it's to a .bvp, we can't click the link in preview and just preview the taget page, because it's not in our Temp files (and Explorer can't open .bvp files. Is there anything that we can do to circumvent this?
Thanks for any help.
