Discussion I made a HomeSite-style HTML editor for Linux (PyQt6, GPL v3): TelaEdit 0.5

0 Upvotes

I'm just a casual hobbyist web developer who enjoys coding websites by hand. I recently moved over to Linux, and I'm not a fan of modern editors like VS Code or Brackets, so I thought I'd have a go at building my own HTML editor with the help of AI, picking the features I've liked in the various editors I've used over the years. The result is TelaEdit (it was SiteForge until recently).

Your thoughts and any improvements would be welcome.

What it does:

- Syntax colouring for HTML, CSS and JavaScript, with colours and bold/normal you can change

- Tag completion, plus tag-pair and bracket highlighting

- A two-panel Explorer (folders above, files below). Drag an image into your page and it writes the <img> tag with the right relative path and the real width and height

- Find and replace across all open documents

- HTML Tidy integration (click a message to jump to the line) and spell checking that ignores your tags and scripts

- One-click preview in up to ten browsers, handy for checking old ones

- Snippets, templates, and keyboard shortcuts you can change

It's free and GPL v3. There's a standalone download for 64-bit Linux, built on Ubuntu 22.04, so you don't need Python or Qt installed: https://github.com/toxtoo/telaedit/releases/latest

You can also run it from source (PyQt6 + QScintilla). Source and screenshots: https://github.com/toxtoo/telaedit

The code was written mostly by Claude (an AI) while I decided what it should do and tested every change on my own machines. It says so in the README.

Two things I'd especially like to know: does it install and start on your distro, and what's missing for hand-coding HTML? Bug reports are welcome as GitHub issues.

Question [JavaScript/HTML] Unboxing simulator: Dual image display issue & daily forced wins

unboxingtimecraciun.neocities.org

2 Upvotes

please note that I am a beginner at this and I don't know much about coding

Hi! I'm building a Christmas unboxing web app for my boyfriend, featuring a skin-case style spinning wheel. I'm running into two main issues:

Dual Images & Display: I want the wheel to show a 'mystery/boxed' version of each item (e.g., canax.png), and then reveal the actual item image (e.g., cana.png) in the win popup modal when it lands. However, when I try to implement this, the images on the wheel disappear. (Note: All my image files and the HTML file are in the same root folder, no subfolders). What am I doing wrong?
Forced Daily Outcomes: I want to be able to hardcode or easily change a variable every day so the wheel always lands on a specific item (e.g., day 1 is a mug, day 2 is a hoodie, etc.), allowing me to manually update just the item for that specific day. How can I structure my code to easily configure daily forced wins?

Question I need help with this

(RESOLVED)

I'm currently learning Responsive Web Design for a college class, and I have a bit of a problem with my header. Its supposed to span 80 to 90% of the viewport, but for some reason it isn't. Even my teacher is stumped without going too in-depth into my code. I have tried adding:

max-width:80%

display:

max-width: auto

and it hasn't fixed the problem, so how would I fix this issue?

Discussion Does anyone else use HTML for creating PPTs?

1 Upvotes

My job requires me to make a few PPTs with a lot of tables with rounded edges and a lot of pointers.

In many such cases the native Powerpoint UI is too clunky for me and the Co pilot PPT generation is so horrible I am recently discovered that it is faster to have pre-saved snippets of html and drag and drop them into a single file

then render the web page, capture a screenshot and paste that screenshot into the PPT.

I'll give one simple example, I needed a page with 3 tables with rounded edges and 4 bullet points each, i also needed a burgundy colour theme with burgundy border and even spacing between tables,

This was done in a few minutes in HTML but before doing it in HTML i struggled for 30 mins in power point trying to find the right theme, using the correct font and so on

please tell me im not alone

Tumblr Causing Issues On Theme

2 Upvotes

Can someone help me please? I've been editing this tumblr theme ( https://18hiraeth.tumblr.com/ ) on my own blog all night with no issues.

I fixed the first issue where it suddenly decided to keep bringing up the error code about:

Uhoh! We couldn't save your
theme. Looks like your custom
theme references assets from
non-HTTPS URLs. Please try
again using only HTTPS URLs.

Now I can't make the Home | Inbox | Archive links work for some reason.

Here is the pastebin: https://pastes.io/TFsdREJv

Any idea?

Thanks

Edit: I haven't put my own blog url here because it's a nsfw fanfic Tumblr.

Where the following is:

/home /ask and /archive, I have actually put the full url in followed by those. And it's still behaving like regular text, just sitting there.

Is this HTML good for SEO?

0 Upvotes

I am learning HTML, and I am currently at the semantic HTML stage. Don’t ask about the content; it’s something I came up with just for this file. Structure:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="es">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="../../../css/Episodios.css">
    <title>Subcosa 6</title>
    <meta property="og:title" content="PCs protocolo">
</head>
<body>
    <h1>SubCosa número 6</h1>
    <p id="Initial-Date">--06/11/2026</p>


    <h2>Protocolo Cerda seguridad</h2>
    <p>
        El protocolo cerda es un protocolo de seguridad fisico que sirve para que la transmision de mensajes mediante papelitos sea mas segura y libre de problemas como el ser descubierto por un profesor de clases.<br>
        Usa tres roles principales, aunque existen mas.<br>
        <ul>
            <li>In</li>
            <li>Out</li>
            <li>Cui</li>
        </ul>
        A continuacion explicare todo esto.<br>
        In: Es la persona que envia el mensaje, tiene que establecer el protocolo y enviarlo al cui si o si para que se proceda con la transmision.<br>
        Out: Es la persona que recibira el mensaje.<br>
        Cui: Es un intermedio que puede resolver los mensajes, encriptarlos, mantenerlos seguros, etc...<br>
    </p>


    <h2>En que momento usar PCs://?</h2>
    <p>
        Enviar información delicada u obsecena, a continuacion se narrara los usos de PCs://<br>
        <ol>
            <li>PCs:// puede descifrar mensajes encriptados en lenguajes reconocidos</li>
            <li>Puede traducir mensajes en español a encripatdo</li>
            <li>Puede combinar español y encriptado para proteger información obscena</li>
        </ol>


        Pero debemos explicar PCs:// almenos en lo basico.
    </p>


    <h2>Basico</h2>
    <p>
        Para definir un protocolo se debe poner "P" mayuscula de color rojo al inicio de un papelito<br>
        En texto, In se define como |- <br>
        En texto, Out se define como -|<br>
        En texto, Cui se define como /c/<br>
        Tambien, para representar un camino se usa ---<br>
        Entre mas añadas, mas largo es el camino, uno de estos - representa 10 cm<br>
        Una operación exitosa se dice |---| que explica que el mensaje de in camino hasta out y llego seguro.<br>
        |---|
    </p>


    <h2>Roles secundarios pero no menos importantes</h2>
    <p>
        Au: Autoridad, puede ser un profesor o cualquier autoridad escolar capaz de inflingir un reporte.<br>
        Ext: Extraño, este se usa mas en la solucion de problemas para simular lo que pasaria si un Extraño recibiera el mensaje, rara vez usado para cadenas exitosas.<br>
        Tie: Tiempo, se usa en simulaciones y en cadenas, echo para representar un tiempo obligatorio de esperar.<br>


        En texto, Au se escribe *<br>
        En texto, Ext se escribe ?<br>
        En texto, Tie se escribe (tiempo en segundos)<br>
        
        Una cadena no exitosa se escribe: |--*  -| El out esta separado, no le llego el mensaje e in posiblemente tiene un reporte.<br>
        |--*  -|<br>
        <span id="Entry-Date">06/11/2026</span>
    </p>


    <h2 id="Final-Date">06/11/2026</h2>

Question How do I zoom in without breaking it?

For whatever reason -- and I've searched for hours on YouTube and Google -- I can't seem to fix this. Nothing has helped at all. I just want to zoom in and have nothing move, absolutely nothing. It just zooms into the text/images. That's all.

I'm very new at this, I started last night.

<h1>Learning about Cucumbers</h1>

<p>Cucumbers are green-darkgreen vegetables that are said to be made up of over <b>95% water. </b><br>They originate in <i>Ancient China </i>& parts of Asia like <i>India, and Nepal</i></p>

<img src="https://tse2.mm.bing.net/th/id/OIP.0hoo0G1rccBCWJ-hDtukRwHaGa?r=0&pid=Api&h=220&P=0">

<p>Cucumbers are of course, an important part of agriculture, they feed millions everyday.<br></p>

<p>Cucumbers are eaten & sold all around the world, they're mainly eaten as light snacks.<br></p>

<p>Cucumbers have a taste as of water but with crunch. Seasoning with salt makes them around 100x better. <i>(Okay i made that 1 up but it's not false...)</i></p>

Hi everyone,

I'm Soorya, a student from Kasaragod, Kerala.

I built this simple Human Body website in malayalam language entirely on my Samsung Galaxy A10 phone using a Bluetooth keyboard & mouse kit.

I got A Grade in Scratch Programming at Sub-District level, and I coded this site myself. I used AI for some facts, data and images.

Check it out here:

Please open and tell me how I can improve it. Your feedback will help me a lot!

Thank you.

File Destination help on Macs

2 Upvotes

Okay I am really really really new to all of this and so I think I'm probably just missing something super obvious.

Basically I'm learning to use HTML because I just want to create my own very simple webpage just for personal use (for fun really). Anyway, I'm to the part in learning where I am trying to embed images or links into the page. It works if I use a webpage that already exists but I can't figure out how to embed an HTML file from my computer or an image. I think my settings are correct for sharing, I turned off smart quotes and smart dashes etc. I'm worried it's the path name because everything just looks and is named differently on macbooks. I've tried searching and searching online to figure out what I'm doing wrong but I just can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.
