RE: [WSG] Site Check - Mitra Foundation
Hi Rahul, It is a really nice site! Did you design and build it? On the home page the use of so many fonts, in particular the ad for the Carbon Campus Neutral Project, is a bit overwhelming. But that is the only thing that I can suggest changing, I really like the colours nice and natural really suit the topic.

I have looked at the site in various Windows browsers - Opera 9, FF 2/1.5, IE 6,7, SeaMonkey and Flock. I have also checked out some of the pages using the SnugTech Safari test, and it seems mostly passable, if not quite pixel-perfect across these browsers. I'd appreciate a heads-up on any of the linux and mac browsers, and various older browsers, if you have access to them. The site validates, except for the use of one proprietary IE-specific PNG hack. The CSS /should/ validate. Please do give me your suggestions - all of them are appreciated very much. However, suggestions that aren't related to CSS, off-list, please.

I'd agree with Rachel and David - a really attractive and appropriate layout and color scheme. You ask about older browsers, but I see problems in IE 7. The text on the horizontal secondary menu (yellow) gets out of whack with the actual link when any zoom is applied (Ctrl +). At the same time, the image transitions get very jerky. There's also a horizontal scroll bar, with the content extending beyond the window borders - but this seems to be a feature of Microsoft's first attempt at a real zoom. My standalone IE 5.5 has problems with the transparency of the logo (but I only just installed IE 7 with these standalones, so that may be a limitation of my setup). IE 5.5 also pops a warning about the script - Line: 4 Char: 1 Error: Object doesn't support this property or method. IE 5.01 is totally borked - most of the content is missing. I don't think I'd worry too much about it though. My site gets visitors on Windows 98, but even they have IE 5.5. Checked on Windows xp SP 2 @ 120 DPI. (Check spelling of title on contact page!) Cordially, David -- *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

I must admit, that I did both design (!) and build the site. I realise that there are quite a few different font faces on the home page. I will see if I can make do with fewer ones - though I rather like that particular font, so perhaps permit me the indulgence. Also thanks to Mr. Capone - and I must admit, that I have disabled javascript too; but it seems to be doing okay without it - it results in a slightly longer wait as the images overlay each other, but I think that is quite acceptable. Thanks! - Rahul. *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
