Good afternoon
Am rushing to finish a site before I have to go away and of course, it
had gone bad on me!

Pages at issue in IE are bridegallery.html and
bridesmaidgallery.html. Fine in FX and others.

I am loth to say that your pages do not work at all in Opera (9.63, Linux).
This, and the IE problems are probably caused by the plethora of markup errors.
You may want to take care of purge your source of any HTML errors
before trying to adjust any CSS problems.
Sorry, in such a rush I

Have just started a site and run into a strange problem - strange

not.

Not sure if it would help in this instance, but what about splitting
this into two files: load a transparent-background logo to quickly load
in front, with the ripples as a background? You may then be able to tile
the background to save a

I had to do this once in the past... and in the end I split the
animation up into its individual frames, optimized each frame to
within an inch of its life, then re-built it as an animation. Cut the
file size down to 10% of the original size.
That sounds good, if a lot of work.
Thanks

Hi Elizabeth.
Won't guarantee this is the source of your woes, but on the Operations page,
the h2OPERATIONS isn't closed.
Yes - how embarrassing! Can't believe I did that!
Another couple of minor points - I'd
suggest adjusting the line spacing on your lis - in Firefox they look
crowded by
To err is human - typos happen :-) but this is yet another example
where running the W3C validator on the page would have immediately
identified the cause of what looked like a CSS display issue.

a problem - I can only

Two pages uploaded: Home and Operation. Does anyone know why the
font-size (specified in css - body 80%) is different on these two
pages? Home is the correct one, but it is bigger on the second page and
the succeeding page

Good afternoon
Am using Russ Wheatley's Simple Nested Rollover List from A List Apart.
div id=nav
ul id=navlist
li id=activea href=index.html
id=currentHOME/a
ul id=subnavlist
li id=subactivea
I see what you are asking now - this would probably need to be
refactored to have it validate.
Cheers,
Anthony.
Perhaps just change the id's to classes?
Kind regards

That might work - but then I don't know how the menu scripts work. If
they rely on ID's, then you will need to refactor.
I changed all the id's to classes and it works. Have only changed it on
the main page as yet but it looks OK and validates.
Thanks for the help!

Do the free [shopping carts] (such as ZenCart and OsCommerce) do an
adequate job ?
My friend populated the shop at the time because he was savvy with
Photoshop and could do all the image work himself. But you could as
well end up doing that too if your client hasn't that knowledge.
.
I think it would be worth your while to go and check out Magento
- http://www.magentocommerce.com/
The makers of this product have done a great job of making it
standards compliant, as well as very usable. We're in the process of
integrating it into a new project.
OK - thanks- will do!
.Thanks Krystian
You don't need any photoshop knowledge above resizing/cutting photos
and that's really basics.
Now about inputting products, I have made a shop for a friend who has
over 1000 products so obviously he and his team had to input all of
them (I've prepared and printed a tutorial
Hi Jason
Don't have much to offer, but just wanted to let you know I looked
into a custom cart awhile back for a job that never went through, but
the cart was going to cost around $500 by the time it was ready. So
while it seems like alot of money, it's probably a decent deal.
Well, if
Have always avoided doing sites that needed a shopping cart but a new
client will need one. I would appreciate some advice. Do the free ones
(such as ZenCart and OsCommerce) do an adequate job or would I be
better off advising my client to go for a paid one. I have a colleague
who does
Thanks Al - the demo looks really nice!
You could constrain the thumbnails you see on the page to a certain
consistent dimension, using height and width or using overflow hidden
and then show the thumbnail in its natural aspect ration on hover.
That can be done with pure CSS. Additionally,
No problem, I'm glad I saw your demo. Thanks. I have followed Thierry's
suggestion in this instance and am giving the client the option of a
centred layout, or left or right aligned images.
Sorry. Didn't see Thierry's suggestion. That should work for you if
perfect symmetry is not a

My client wants her image galleries to look the same (if possible) as on

I LOVE Lightbox! Only discovered it recently and am using it on a site

only 'complaint' that another developer here found was that it doesn't

That link doesn't work but I have checked out the site and found the
article Using CSS to style thumbnails and captions which sounds like
the one.
Thank you very much for the help.
Lyn
You may want to check this technique as it allows the images to flow while
keeping them
Thierry
At the bottom of that article there are four links to different techniques,
the one you want to check is the last one: centering thumbnails
(horizontally/vertically).
Yes - I am at this very moment working on that one and it looks like it
will be successful - I just need to convert

Hi,
Has anyone been able to successfully scale a CSS background image to
the current window size? I've done some research via Google and it
appears this can't be done purely with CSS (at least not yet), maybe
some JavaScript?
Is this the sort of thing you mean:
Thanks Luke and Kerry - it will certainly be different!

IE displays as intended but since I made some changes to other parts of
the site, Firefox displays incorrectly.
It seems to want to put #contentdata directly under #box instead of
under #contentpics.
Can anyone see where I have gone

Have been making some changes at client's request and things have gone
wrong. Firefox is fine and renders as intended. The issue is #content h1.
IE is not rendering it as per the css. It seems to be ignoring it.
When I validated the page, there was 1 error:
I can't believe I didn't spot that! Thank you!
I've been staring at if for ages and I don't understand this at all
and was wondering if this was the reason IE won't render it as intended.
Just above the div id=content there's a broken /div tag.

A client is still having issues with his site

It seems to be a problem only in IE6 at a screen resolution of 800x600
and lower. The #header does not fit
I was wondering if it was anything to do with the max-width I have on
#container and #nav as I know IE6 does not recognise max-width.
I have changed max-width: 80em to width: 100% and also changed the
width of #main from 69% to 59%. This seems to have fixed all the issues
in IE6 except
Thanks Al
You need min-width in addition to, or instead of, max-width. IE7 will
be fine, along with other modern browsers.
For IE6 you need to use a script or a CSS expression to set min-width.
You can google ie6 min-width css expression. You should get lots of
hits. If not, reply back and
I hope this post is allowed. Just had a call from a client to say he
cannot see all of his website. He does not seem very computer
literate. He says he can see the first bit ( header and the
navigation bar underneath the header), but below is just a green blank
page.
I can see nothing
