1. How do I create a vertical line, so I can have links on one side?
2. How do I "text wrap" an image?
3. Is this possible with geocities?: make another account and upload files which I can use on my site as download links?
4. Is there a better hoster then geocities, with at least 20mb and little or no ads?
1) Everyone said frames, or even tables, but y'all forgot CSS... CSS allows you to have only a right border with a table or something, it's really great.
<style>
[tag] {border-x: solid blue 2px}
</style>
Where x is either top, right, left or borrom, solid is the opacity (not sure about this), blue is the colour (could be any colour or a hexadecimal RGB value), 2px is the width of the border (could be 5px or whatever number). [tag] is the tag you wanna apply the border to. I think it works with Table, TD, Span, Div, P, and many more. Just experiment offline.
4) Try www.narod.ru they give 100 MB or space or something, but it's quite slow. I think it has an ad like Geocities but you can remove that with a script. www.spaceports.com gave 50 MB (not sure if it works now), and i think it had some ads...
But if you want to build a serious site, there are only 2 ways i know of to get the appropriate hosting:
1. Pay for it (obviously).
2. Make friends with someone who owns a server and ... you get the idea.
Good luck

thanks mate, I'll try that.
The site I'm making really is just a bit of fun, a mini hobby so there's no way I would pay.
If I don't even pay for singles I wouldn't buy a site .
So there's no script to stop the geocities ad-sqaure?

Duties are not performed for duty's sake, but because their neglect would make the man uncomfortable. A man performs but one duty - the duty of contenting his spirit, the duty of making himself agreeable to himself.

Thank you for your replies, they are helping.
In my continous struggle to have a site with no ads and not having to pay I have noticed something you html experts may be able to help me with.
Sometimes then my page loads there is no ad square at all!
When this happens, in the left corner I'm told the page is "done, with errors" and the details are
"syntax error"
Line: 2
Char: 29
So would there be a way of making this error constant?

Hmm, it's definitely not a HTML error. Maybe JS, but as far as i remember, JS errors are worded differently... so it could be ASP or something. Anyway, if it says line 2 then just open the source and check what's wrong with line 2... you'll surely notice something if there's an error...
