Handle common HTML and CSS problems

This is real work, not a feature someone invented — it comes from real job ads and real questions people asked. Below are four ready AI prompts: get it done, make it easy for the next person to say yes to, work out the right move when you are stuck, and stop it coming back.

Fix the broken image on the homepage. The 'hero-banner.jpg' isn't showing up, and the text below it is overlapping the navigation bar.

Before the client review this afternoon, go through the main product page and ensure all images load correctly, and that the layout doesn't break on a small phone screen. Pay special attention to the product gallery and the 'Add to Cart' button's alignment.

The client just complained the 'Buy Now' button is invisible on some browsers.
The client just complained the 'Buy Now' button is invisible on some browsers, specifically older versions of Safari. I've checked the CSS, and it looks fine to me, but I'm worried about cross-browser compatibility issues I might be missing. I can't tell them I don't know why. What's the most common reason for this kind of button rendering issue across different browsers, and what's the quickest way to diagnose it?

I constantly get bug reports about layout issues on different devices or browsers.
I constantly get bug reports about layout issues on different devices or browsers, especially after new content goes live. This is killing my productivity and making me look sloppy. What habit should I change to proactively catch common rendering problems before they ever reach the client?

Questions people actually ask

honest answers, no sign-up

Every task here was seen in the real world. Someone doing the job named it, a real job ad asked for it, or a lot of people asked about it online.

If nothing real showed a task, it is not on the page. That is the whole rule.

They are the same job approached four ways, because what you need depends on where you are.

Get it done today. Make it easy for the next person to say yes to. Work out the right move when you are stuck. Learn the pattern so the job stops coming back.

For most of these jobs it can carry the heavy thinking - draft it, sort it, check it, rehearse it with you.

It cannot sit in your chair, take the blame when a number is wrong, or notice what nobody wrote down. Let it do the first 80%. Keep the last 20% that is truly yours.

No. Copy any prompt and paste it into the AI you already use. No account, no score, no wall in the way.

Any of them. The prompts describe the work rather than naming a product, so they are not tied to one assistant.

That is also why they keep working when you switch.

Change it freely. Every prompt is a starting line, not a rule.

Put in your real numbers, your real names and your real deadline. The more you make it yours, the better the answer comes back.

The tasks come from real job ads, published job data and the questions people ask in public forums.

The steps come from HTML's own documentation, with practitioner sources for the traps the manual does not mention.

Push once. Ask it to sharpen the weakest part and to say what it assumed.

Most wrong answers come from a missing detail rather than a bad prompt - tell it the thing it could not know.
