Hi,
Your layout is not extensible. If you have a 800x600 resolution, the
pub banner goes underneath the Mondotron logo box, and you'll have a
horizontal scroll. Make one of the columns width in percentage so its size will
be adapted for the resolution.
In boca

Hi Debra
Overall, a nice design, just one point. In IE6 win xp, the background
image/floorplan in the content area moves when switching between high
contrast/low contrast. I haven't looked into why, no time right now, but
when this has happened to me it's been a background positioning issue.

Hi Sam
I couldn't tell if the disjointed, oddly overlapping elements were intentional
or not. It looks like you have a conflict in your width or margins which make
the banner on the right drop below the content on the left. The scattered
links on the right look like something is supposed to

I see what you mean (1280 x 1024) but don't know how to counteract this.
I have the image set to repeat-y and the background colour set to
white to blend in with the far right of the image. It looks like the
image is repeating.

You're getting a couple of CSS validation errors. Also, I think you

Hi Michael,
A few quick tests I always do on a page are:
1. check for scalability (increase font size a few times to see if it
breaks)
2. look at it without CSS
3. look in lynx
4. look in a range of browsers
5. look in print preview
The left nav fails badly in Mac/IE5, can send you screenshots
Five excellent testing essentials. Thanks Russ.
