Hello Andrew,

There's a free tool to show you how you site will look in different
browsers and plataforms:
http://browsershots.org/

Take a time and submit you URL in there.

About your design, I like it, it's light, clean but the code it's kind
of full of redundancies...

For instance:
<ul class="menu">
<li class="menu">home</li>
<li class="menu"><a
href="?site_area=services&amp;page=services">services</a></li>
<li class="menu"><a
href="?site_area=portfolio&amp;page=portfolio">portfolio</a></li>
<li class="menu"><a href="?site_area=contact&amp;page=contact">contact</a></li>
<li class="menu"><a href="?site_area=login&amp;page=login">login</a></li>
</ul>

You don't have to declare the classes for all LIs in this UL, because
they're not different and you'll economize some bytes with that and,
of course, will be more semantic

Another tip, try to code your HTML with XHTML 1.1 Strict. It's a lot
easier to reache accessibility standards because it is very hard and
demand semantics all the time.

Good luck with you projects!

Best Regards from Brazil,

OK - time to take the plunge...

I'm rewriting my site in what I hope is the 'right' way - semantic,
standards-compliant, accessible.

I've got a small problem on the home page: The bottom borders of the nav
items don't show up in IE7 (and I don't have IE6).

Any help with that (and any other comments) would be much appreciated:

find PHP errors)
