Adding "posting" facility to a website - web

Hi
I am creating a website using HTML and CSS only and I want to add the following feature:
Any person visiting the site should be able to post a message and that message should appear below with his name and time of posting.
How do I go about creating it?
Please help.
Thanks In advance

You won't be able to do this using HTML and CSS only (at least not in any sane way).
You will need a database of some sort (e.g. MySql, Microsoft Access etc) and you will need some sort of server-side scripting language such as PHP, .NET, Ruby etc.
I suggest picking a language and then finding some tutorials. Most tutorials will take you through using a database.

This is completely impossible using HTML and CSS only. You will have to use a server-side scripting language.

detecting if website has e-commerce in Node.js

I need to detect programatically if a website has an e-commerce platform/system
I don't need to know which one, I just need to know if the website has one.
(I have a big list of websites so I probably need to scrape them)
any suggestions on how I could do this without using external websites (like rescan.io/builtwith/etc) would be greatly appreciated!
thank you!
You can use a package called Puppeteer which is used to do web-scraping in node.js.
I don't know what platforms you are trying to look for, but I guess you could try something like giving the list of websites you want to check to a node.js process and ask Puppeteer to scrape them all. Then you look at the content you get back and for example look for Shopify's CDN in the tags or check the tags for keywords.
You will definitely need to check each different platform like Magento or Shopify for unique source code that clearly sets apart the framework you are looking at from other tools.

Create website which has usefull information like videos, third party API for live information on education

I want to create a website which consists of videos which will be uploaded by the admin and many useful information which all will be uploaded by an admin.

I am beginner in C++, html. Can you guys let me know how can I achieve in creating a website.
You can find your answer here on your own:
So there are various languages that are being used in the web that perform various purposed and hence you can choose what functionality do you need in your website and according to that you can write the code in that language.
Lets take a quick look at some of the most widely used languages of the web:
1: HTML
This is a Markup Language which can be used basically just for writing the content and displaying on your webpage. You can create too many pages and link them to form a website.
2: CSS
This language helps you design your webpage and thus makes your webpage look way too better. A site only written in html in not preferrable.
3: JavaScript
This language is a scripting language that helps you do various cool stuff like handling input events (like click, hover,etc), change the content of your webpage dynamically, bring popups , etc.
4: PHP
This scripting language is also being widely used as this lets you work with the forms and submit to a database. In fact, if you learn this language you can write the logic behind your own facebook and you can give it a face using HTML, CSS.
Once you are done learning all these languages, you can now learn some of the cool libraries like:
Bootstrap (for css, js)
Jquery (Javascript)

2 people working on 1 HTML file simultaneously

My freind and I want to setup a collaborative project where we both work on a HTML file (and do PHP) at the same time (bit like Google Docs share feature). I want to be able to work with him to teach him certain things in PHP and HTML while I also code at the same time. Any suggestions? I have a VPS I thought we could use for it so nothings really going to get in our way. Maybe something like GIT or something?
Sounds like what you need is a real-time collaborative text editor. Here's an extensive list from wikipedia.
I use Google Docs personally but Microsoft has added this type of functionality into Office and there are a slew of desktop and online tools on that link. I had looked into Etherpad before but i don't remember enough to suggest one or the other. All of the links are on the wikipedia article so I won't repeat here.

How to Secure HTML email in a web application?

What is the most effective way of sanitizing HTML emails displayed in a web application so that malicious code is not executable, but the html layout remains in tact?
An example of the desired functionality is the way gmail removes any script tags and delays image display.
I can use some naive regex tag stripper to try and secure the email as best I can, but what I'm looking for is a comprehensive filter that ideally sits between the client and pop server.
Does anyone have any insights into this problem?
I recommend you read the answers to Strict HTML Validation and Filtering in PHP, which asks the same question. HTML Purifier is a good starting point.
I suggest you something like http://htmlpurifier.org/ or if you use php: https://phpids.org/
Don't write your own regexp rules, they will fail! :)
To make some advertisement, if you use php, you can try my PHP Intrusion Prevention System, its Alpha but I need testers :)

Its a little Framework around phpids.

How to create simple website using CouchDB only?

Where do I get a tutorial to create a simple website using CouchDB only without any other scripting language. Is it possible to store the HTML, CSS and the Javascript within the document?
Yes, you can store HTML, CSS and Javascript in view documents in CouchDB. Check free online book: http://guide.couchdb.org/
Surprised no one else mentioned this but you can create a "couchapp" which sounds like exactly what you want. CoudchDB will serve up the HTML,CSS, images, scripts directly. http://couchapp.org/page/index
