All,
I've spent the last week or so struggling to come to terms with CSS and
its non-standard implementations accros browsers. I have the outline of
a site that I'd appreciate feedback on:
http://www.robmay.me.uk/win32gui/website/
Particularly I'd like to know:
(1) Whether it lays out nicely in your browser, or whether it screws up.
(2) What your browser user agent is. You can point your browser at:
http://www.robmay.me.uk/win32gui/website/ua.shtml to find out if you
don't know (I'd like the whole line). It should fall back from a
'boxed' layout to something much simpler if your browser is V4 or
earlier (are there any of those left?)
I've run it through FF1.06, IE6, IE5.5, IE5.0 NN4.6:
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows 98; T312461; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 98; T312461; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; T312461; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716
Firefox/1.0.6
Mozilla/4.6 [en-gb]C-CCK-MCD NetscapeOnline.co.uk (Win98; I)
(3) Your comments on the style/colors other artistic impressions.
- I still have some content to write, and the list of links on the front
page will be layed out differently
(4) Your Technical comments
- I am aware that there is a bit of Javascript - that will be removed
(it simply adds the IE version to the titlebar so I can keep track of
which window is which).
- The news section will be fed automatically from the Sourceforge RSS feed.
(5) Anything that you'd like to see in the future.
Assuming there's no major issues, then I plan to put something close to
this up at http://perl-win32-gui.sourceforge.net/ and link the 'home'
link from the project page to it.
Regards,
Rob.
