Re: [WSG] Site check please
http://www.executiveresults.com.au/new/boot-camp.cfm
has quite a big issue with the top having a big white space, and the sub
menu being out of place. The form doesn't look to healthy either.
The two are related - it's the spacing around the submit button that
breaks the rest of the page. I fixed it by wrapping the submit button in
a div tag like:
divinput
type=submit
name=doSubmit
value=Submit this form/div
There is probably a css-only solution but I didn't find it.
Also, setting the width of the rest of the inputs to 99% instead of 100%
fixed the form:
form.styled div.row input { width: 99% }
Hope that helps. All the best,

RE: [WSG] Site check please
Thanks Jesse,
That did help, feel a bit weird about adding an extra div just to fix the
issue, but I guess there is no other way.
The problems with the form looking odd is now fixed.
Few little issues left in Internet Explorer. Again, all pages validate.
http://www.executiveresults.com.au/new/private-training/start-now.cfm
The arrow pointing down (in the legend tag) in Firefox displays fine, in
IE it's all the way to the right, which is not correct.
On every page there is the one pixel issue on the top right-hand (displaying
a white bit) and the sub navigation displaying one pixel to the left.
On the
http://www.executiveresults.com.au/new/private-training/our-trainers.cfm
page the sub menu lines up with the photo in Firefox, but in IE it goes
beyond the photo.
Thanks for all the help!
Kind regards,

Thanks, comments taken onboard, put a bit more space between the images. Will have a look at the darkness of the blue box.

Re: [WSG] Site Check Please: www.re-entity.com
I would take the clear:left off the paragraphs within your post.FRom this: .post p, .post ul { margin-bottom:10px; clear:left; }to .post p, .post ul { margin-bottom:10px;
}That way the text will wrap around the Roulette image that you've floated left rather than clearing it.On 4/7/06, Stuart Sherwood

Yes, the privacy policy should be a link...but I guess I better write one first...Doh!The Philosophy page is certainly there...don't know what happened for you.The posting for Roulette, The Band has a link at the bottom, but I have added another link within the post anyway.

Yep, I think you are right about my welcome message...changed!Thanks,Stuart

Re: [WSG] Site Check Please: www.re-entity.com
Hi Stuart,1. I'm not sure the uppercase text in the tiny font works that well. I think you can get away with it for the sub headings, but it's difficult to read (try a bigger font-size, with mixed case text). 2. The introductory paragraph is a bit lengthy. Why not just cut it down to Introducing design transparency -- you could even put this directly below your title, as it tells the user pretty much what the page is about. If you want to include the other stuff, put it in an about section. 3. Welcome to my new site detracts from the professionalism I believe are trying to acheive.I hope this helps!Daniel NitscheOn 4/7/06, Stuart Sherwood [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Listers,I'd appreciate any comments on my site redesign.www.re-entity.com Thanks,Stuart
