You better believe it! Check this out.

I'm convinced. Where can I download it?

Click here to download NAMFox.

If Firefox notifies you that it "prevented this site (www.neoseeker.com) from asking you to install software on your computer," then click on the "Edit Options..." button on the right side of that message. Firefox will then show a window called "Allowed Sites - Add-ons Installation" which will show you a list of sites you have allowed and blocked. Click the "Allow" button if "www.neoseeker.com" is in the "Address of web site" text box. Then click "Close" and re-click the link above.

If you still cannot download it, then please contact me. I'll help you get setup as soon as possible. =)

I still have more questions. Where can I ask?

NeoHome Ratings

Rate your favorite NeoHomes! Type in a member's name and give his or her NeoHome a rating out of 5. You may not rate your own NeoHome, and you may not rate a particular more than once. The only way you can re-rate a NeoHome is if that NeoHome's owner resets their rating. If you want to reset your rating because you've got a new NeoHome, or you just want to start over, PM me.

History

Before 2006, members used JavaScript to show and hide different "pages" when someone viewing their neohome clicked on a link. An example of this is in Mr_Roboto's NeoHome; the links on the right side change the content in the center area. If you view the source of the page, you'll see that it uses JavaScript, specifically the "innerHTML" property of a DOM element, to change that content. Unfortunately, after 2006, this content switching was disabled, at least through the use of JavaScript. As a result, new neohomes can no longer use this technique. You've probably noticed that this NeoHome does the same thing, but it's all done through HTML and CSS. And the results are almost the same.

The Concept

This neohome uses anchors to change the content in this center pane. When you click on "Home," it take you to the home page, which is #home. When you click on "Comments," it takes you to the comments page, which is #comments. How does this work? Well, treat the entire content area—where you see the home page, the comments page, etc.—as one big scrollpane, or scrollbox. This scrollpane is special, though, because it allows you to see only one part of it at a time. You'll also notice that it doesn't even have a scrollbar; if I put the scrollbar in, you'd be able to scroll among the different sections. This may make more sense if you download Opera and view this NeoHome in it, because you'll see the scrollbar. Once you've seen that, you can look at how it's done below.

The Code

Here's some sample code that you can play around with. There are two types of div elements involved: the outer div contains all of the content, and each inner div contains the content for a specific section. For example, there is a div element which contains only the "innerHTML" section in my NeoHome, and there is another which contains all of the sections. Every div element has the same height. The outer div has a CSS overflow property set to "auto" (so that it will mimic scrolling if there is too much content) as well as a CSS overflow-y property set to "hidden" (so the scrollbar is hidden).

Your Mission

The code shown above is only the start! It's also something you can improve on greatly, using CSS for visuals as well as some other tricks to make it work right for you. If you've used this technique in your neohome, let me know, and I'll add you to the list below.

Takes up too much space, honestly.ArtificerSunday, March 02, 2008 12:15 PM MST

Ha, they don't. Then why did people say that?Catboy14Friday, February 29, 2008 9:18 PM MST

Damn. I like this Neohome. It's very organized. Good job Artificer. I shall be trying to duplicate the functions of your NeoHome very shortly. Of course, it won't be exactly the same but the innerHTML could help me out greatly. I don't think it will be as good as yours though..Stem CellSunday, February 17, 2008 4:14 PM MST
