yes I know that But you are not getting it, which is fine, you don't have too, I do. We know some or a lot of people it wont fit which is a given. But your option is to make them page scroll and mine is to window scroll so that they DON'T have to scroll all the way up to use the menu. Does that
Hi,
If you tell your client to visit www.msn.com with his Mac IE5.2 browser
then he'll get the message that his browser is out of date and that he
should change it to another browser like FireFox or Safari.
So even Microsoft tells Macusers to change to another browser than Internet Explorer. I
So you hit CTRL and HOME for the top or CTRL and END for the bottom of a page. And yes, lots of people do know that. Simple, Josh.

Firstly, congratulations on putting
together a site that is well structured with the headings etc. My comments
relate more to the usability and accessibility aspects.

The latest NZ Macguide magazine has a good interview on Macs and accessibility
at Royal NZ Foundation for the Blind, and also some info on their new website

Both well worth a look.

I have added a hidden menu to a site for those using text browsers or
surfing with images turned off.
The regular menu is image based but uses titles for accessibility, but
this doesn't show in Lynx. I'd rather have a text based menu now but the
client is happy and it is better than the drop

You *ARE* giving those images suitable ALT attributes, I hope? TITLE

Actually, let me rephrase that before it causes confusion: TITLE on

They're *attributes*, not tags, please learn the correct terminology.

No, they're not
Hi Lori
Your issue with the tabs can be quickly fixed by switching the order in your
css of the #menu a:visited and #menu a:hover, so the hover is 'above' the
visited declaration.
The page break up looks like a guillotine bug. Need to dig more to find the
cause for that!

Scott Swabey
Thankyou for correcting my terminology.
Text-indent. That's just what I need! Thankyou Lachlan, its a much
better solution.

Thanks Scott,
The correct order of those elements is doing the trick. Yellow appears.
I did change the CSS comments to be the CSS format but that has altered some
other page's format like the form entry windows and text alignment in the
client page. The blue line still appears on the home

Avoid creating links without text, it's bad practice. Using small images
of text in you main navigation is bad too.

Lori,
I am going to suggest that you download Firefox or Mozilla to develop
with. You will find that IE is too forgiving and allows errors to fall
through the cracks by trying to render the page vs. not parsing invalid
code.It is better to learn to make it right and then tweak it for IE.

I think I have come up with a more elegant solution now.
There is only one menu with each link formatted like this:
lia id=Home title=Home href=index.jspbr /Home/a/li
The br pushes the text under the header so it isn't visable to regular
users but accessable when images are turned off.
