[WSG] tags
Hi there, Can anyone tell me what the current state of play is with the tags & XHTML? They seem to be the answer for a particular design I'm working on, and they don't appear to be marked for deprecation. Are there any compelling reasons not to use them? (Apart from them being empty tags). Thanks, Nick. ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help **
[WSG] Flash Ads Disabled with New IE Update
This may be slightly off subject, but will no doubt affect us all. "Now that Microsoft has shipped a new update of its Internet Explorer, multimedia content and the way it’s rendered on Web pages could be altered forever — and could affect the industry by disabling many flash advertisements." ~ (Extract from the article). (I assume this would also carry through to IE7) http://www.adotas.com/2006/03/flash-ads-disabled-with-new-ie-update/ Regards, Nick. ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help **
Re: [WSG] Search Engine Script *Little off topic*
Fluid Dynamics (http://www.xav.com/scripts/search/) do a very nice Open Source Perl based search engine script, which even has an automated install from their web site. They also have a very nice, basic, site tracking program called AXS, as well as a few other interesting scripts. Regards, Nick.

I am looking for a Search script to put on a website that will have about 35 to 40 web pages in it. Most of the scripts I've found through looking you have to pay annually. I am looking for preferablya free script or at least one I can buy for a 1 time fee. Anybody have any suggestions?

RE: [WSG] Site check: color.rdpdesign.com
Hi Christian, I checked out your site in Safari 1.3.1, Firefox (Mac) 1.0.6, IE 5.2 & Camino 0.8.2 on 1024 x 768. The page renders nicely in all browser except for IE 5.2. The layout is shot in this browser. I wouldn’t be too concerned about this, as IE 5.2 is a real pig to design for, and has very few users, (less than 2% market share I believe). The only slight difference I noticed between my Windows machine on 1280 x 1024 & the Mac was that the line ‘Complementary Color’ jumps onto two lines when viewed in the lower resolution, (1024 x 768). Not a big issue, but you may want to address it by reducing the font slightly. Other than that, nice job! (It validates fine too).

I just finished a site and it looks ok in IE 6 / FF / Opera. I'm not too concerned about compatibility with older browsers, just wondering if it works ok in Mac and Linux.
