Trouble Shooting
back to top
- When I enter in some code I get this weird neoHTML error??? And how do I get a Sig, Siggy, Signature??
If you update your chat profile without updating your default neoHTML, neopets will default a value of 'none' in for your neoHTML ... problem is that if you try to update your user lookup again you'll get a neoHTML error... i've reported it to Neopets :)
SOLUTION:- (this gives you a siggy in the chat boards)Put in a default neoHTML code ... Enter the neoHTML in the "Default neoHTML" box on the chat page.
[font s=2 c=lime f=courier]neoHTML[/font][sub]my sig[/sub]
s=2 ... size of the font
c=lime ... colour of the font
f=courier ... font face (font name can only be one word eg script,arial,terminal,verdana)
sub ... subscript
my sig ... where you put your signature (short message posted after every message you write)
[font c=hotpink][b][sup]neoHTML[/sup][/b][sub]neopets.com/~csshelp[/sub][/font]
sup ... superscript
b ... bold
[glow s=3 c=indigo][b][font c=white]neoHTML[sub]*meep*[/sub][/font][/b][/glow]
glow ... make it glow ... heh
s=3 ... size of glow
c=indigo ... glow color
c=white ... font colour
[shadow s=3 c=red][b][font s=2 c=black]neoHTML[/font][/shadow][sub]*ghost*[/sub]
shadow ... drop shadow
s=3 .. size of shadow
c=red ... colour of shadow
*ghost* ... puts a little ghost pic at the end of all your posts
[sub]csshelp:[b][font s=3 c=violet]neoHTML[/font][/b][i]-PS ILOVEU!:P[/i][/sub]
This neoHTML has a sig before and after!
- I put in your CSS code, but it didn't work?
Ok, the problem with CSS code is that it can only appear once, if it appears more than once then the last bit of code is usually used. For example if you use this bit of code...
Then the second picture error_back.gif would be the background not error_title.gif.
SOLUTION:- Delete all former codes, add new codes ... or ... save all old codes ... then remove the old codes and add the old and new codes back one by one to see the effects
- I put in that mouseover code for a rainbow background but it doesn't work over the left side table like it does with your user lookup, why????
Ok, this is a similar problem to the one above ... first off the left side bar MUST be in some way faded or the yellow bits removed (chroma). If you have done that and it still doesn't work then you may have defined the code like this...
In this case the border will probably show, but the rainbow bit won't entirely ...
SOLUTION:- you need to change the code to one line ... eg
- I copied the code correctly but my pic still doesn't show!!??
Ok what usually happens is the website where the pic is doesn't allow remote image linking. So if you have your pic at geocities.com it won't show. However I think angelfire.com does allow it.
SOLUTION:- You need to upload the pic to a place that does allow remote image linking, the best pace I had found was your guild's photo gallery (but Neopets has forbidden that now), more help at Garaneno's Graphic Tips page. The other places you have to pay unfortunately ...
Once you've uploaded the pic right click it and choose properties to find the URL
- I copied the code correctly and my pic shows fine but other people have said they can't see it?? why??
Ok you most probably have your pic stored on your home pc, it needs to be on the internet for people to see it. The other case is because the website doesn't allow remote image linking. So if you have your pic at geocities.com or angelfire.com it won't show.

- How can I have music in my user lookup?
Sorry neopets changed it so you can't enter those html tags in anymore, so no you can't have music in your user lookup... some people used html before neopets changed it so that's why theirs has music :(
- How do you make the CSS and HTML code show up in those tables / boxes on this page??
Use HTML - T E X T A R E A without the spaces see www.draac.com for more ... on pet pages you have to type T E X T _ A R E A without the spaces to make it work
- What's the code for disabling the right click so people can't steal my source code or pictures??
This is javascript but I recommend that you don't use it because it is annoying and does not stop people from stealing anything. Anyone can copy your code unfortunately.
To stop people from copying and using your pictures, it is best to cutomise it to you by writing your name on it some how. You can write on the page "Please don't steal my pics" etc and that can help but it won't stop everybody. It can be quite distressing when you see someone has stolen your pic, try asking them nicely to stop.
- What's the code for popups???
Arrgggghhhh, popups are annoying, if i come across a page with popups i leave and never return!! No way am I giving anyone this code :P (see javafile.com if you really them want though)
- Why don't style tags or link tags work in shops anymore???
Neopets have disabled it to stop scammers, sigh. Now we can only use HTML.
- How do you do an external style sheet?
To learn how to use external style sheets ... Basically you put all your CSS code (except the style tags!) into a text file and save it as c.css or similar. Then upload this file to your website. Then link to that file using the code at w3schools.

- How can I link to this page from my user lookup???
