Re: [WSG] Changes to websites
Hi Deborah, I can't see how the changes will make an impact as yet but this resource is useful (if you aren't aware of it already). http://webpublishing.agimo.gov.au/ Adeline's Email Signature Best regards, Adeline Yaw Centre for Physical Activity Health Level 2, Medical Foundation Building, K25 University of Sydney NSW 2006 www.cpah.health.usyd.edu.au [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I am looking for feedback on how other departments are handling the change of government, in regards to departmental websites?

Re: [WSG] Visual Design Of Websites
I'm currently doing the same course as Marvin (different stage and campus) and I don't think its a hinderance to be exposed to all sides of web development. I don't think they want us (students) to become all-rounders but to at least develop fundamental basics so if we are interested (eg. databases or graphic side of the web) we can then move into specialised fields or do further study eg. do a programming certificate (learning java and c sharp) or database design/development or multimedia design... I'll be continuing my cert iv course in website design then moving into the diploma course in website development (to learn more back-end languages eg. ajax, php, mysql and asp.net) starting next year. Seona Bellamy wrote: The trouble is that if this is part of a university/college course, then you don't get a choice. I mean, I knew what I wanted to specialise in, but I had to do all sorts of things during my degree course just so I could get that little piece of paper at the end. And while I technically didn't have to do brilliantly at all of them (except for the sake of my academic pride!) I did at least have to do well enough at all of them to pass. Any sort of schooling tends to try and turn out all-rounders. If you want to specialise, then do some independent study (certification courses, etc) once you have your bit of paper. :) Or, during, if you're as impatient as I am and can't be bothered waiting. ~Seona. *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** ***List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfmUnsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfmHelp: [EMAIL PROTECTED]***
Re: [WSG] Content Management issue ?
I'm surprised no one has really commented on Joomla! I've read the feedback and reviews on Joomla and not only is it free and open source CMS, you're able to customise and add extensions as appropriate for your client. Check out the demo at: http://demo.joomla.org/ Joomla! 1.5 is suppose to be out soon but the beta version is available to play around with. This company (http://www.compassdesigns.net/) solely provides clients with Joomla! CMS sites. Kevin Ross wrote: Hi: I have a question which has surfaced due to an upcoming requirement. I have built a web site for a client who now wants to be able to manage the site on her own. She is computer literate, but not a web designer, by any means. I am new to the idea of Content Management systems and am really trying to wrap my brain around what they really do and how to set one up. I guess I am wondering how other designers handle this type of issue? How do you setup clients to manage their own site so they are not having to take a detailed course in Web Design. I hope my concern is understood, as I have been thinking about this issue for a while and have investigated certain software... Joomla, Wordpress... Can anyone lend a hand? Thanks very much...

Re: [WSG] Map of Australia Image Map
Hi Felisimina, Try this tutorial- http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menu/index.html Scroll to the bottom of the Demos page to view tutorials on Image Maps (all CSS). Adeline Felisimina Jom wrote: Hi Everyone We are trying to put together a map of Australia where the states appear on hover and are clickable. As I understand it, the hover state can't be used in area so I wonder if there is a way to display the States on hover without using _javascript_? Has anybody seen or created way of displaying States on hover using CSS only? Thanks in advance for your advice.

Re: [WSG] Template Review
Hi CK, I think there should be more line-height in the main content of the page, it just looks too squished to me. And the text 'read more' is way too tiny. regards, Adeline CK wrote: http://working.bushidodeep.com/dom_site/template.php Hi, Typography is the emphasis of this creation, so a review for readability is desired.

Re: [WSG] WANAU - anyone heard of them?
Hi Susie, I haven't heard of this group before but I have gone through the website and it looks like something that's needed esp. among Universities. I am definitely interested in attending the Sydney event in May. Sydney Uni are actually having a web forum this afternoon for all CMS users and I will definitely mention this site and at least get people on board the mailing list. -- signature 10.8.06 Best regards, Adeline Yaw Administrative Assistant Centre for Physical Activity Health Level 2, Medical Foundation Building, K25 University of Sydney NSW 2006 t: +61 2 9036 3193 | f: +61 2 9036 3184 www.cpah.health.usyd.edu.au Susie Gardner-Brown wrote: WANAU - anyone heard of them?
