[TUT] Avoiding Freewebs

Well these are just some cool tips for Freewebs users, now i know not everyone can afford to pay money on the computer, so you just use freewebs. And these are just some tips to hide the freewebs look on your site, to make it look nicer.

1. First of all, the best free Domain name in my opinion is co.nr. Its easy, fast and reliable, you can use the same email for registering accounts. (For those people who change there mind alot.) Easy to log in and edit the URLs for links and just a simple clean enviornment, oh yeah, NO ADDS!

www.Co.Nr

2. FREEWEBS Adds, the ADDS! Well, freewebs used to be avoidable in there adds department, but with there new layout they brought out some new tricks, every page has an add on it, and you cant get rid of it, so. I suggest using old accounts, these dont have the adds. If you know how to delete them, a good thing though. These adds dont work in iframes, so put your template in an old account and have all the iframes are your newer account, if you understand.

3.

Now this annoying thing, can be easily solved. With this code.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
window.defaultStatus = "YOUR TEXT HERE";
</script>

It goes anywhere inside your <Head> tags.

4.

This also is annoying, when your hovering over a link on your site it will show the location in the bottom left hand corner, and its destroying your cover with the first code! We must stop it!

Code:

<A href="link.html" onmouseover="window.status='statusbar message here';  return true;"


onmouseout="window.status='';  return true;">
Link text</A>

Thise code goes in between your <Body> tags.

Brown part = The link.
Purple part = What you want the left hand corner part to say.
Red Part = What you want the link to say, that you hover over.

Example of all the codes together:

And thats all for now, when i learn new stuff, you will learn new stuff!

Thanks for reading.

Only thing is - Most of those codes only work in internet explorer...those using Firefox like myself can still see the freewebs loading bar and see its freewebs when hovering over links.

but 10/10 for the effort
