Sorry I'm so late into this. I'm on Mozilla 1.5a, windoze 2000, 1280x1024, dual t1's (work) As per your usual, the design is airtight. The orange you use is very bold and eyecatching and works very well in the layout. I do have a few observations, of course: - I could not duplicate this, so maybe you were working on it when I was looking at it, but from code of conduct, standard trading terms, conditions and bill of lading terms the links were dead... again, they seemed fine after I came back to the page, but this seemed worth mentioning. - On the booking form page, the scs news update is lower than other pages (double the width apart from the element above it as on other pages) - This is purely personal preference, but I don't like the nav button of the current page being disabled. I will often use this to refresh the page. I like to think that the user shouldn't have to touch the browser chrome to navigate (or interact) with my sites. - Your <textarea>'s aren't styled the same as the text input fields. - I really like the bullets on the value added services list (they are slightly different from the nav bullets and seem to "Pop" more) I think you're a great designer, which is why I'd like to see you doing this: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A//www.seacargoservices.ie/index.asp&doctype=HTML+4.01+Transitional&charset=ISO-8859-1&ss=1 Not in bad shape at all, just a few little paradigm shifts and you'll be writing xhtml in no time. For the body text: it look fine to me, but my sight is good. If you want to make it resizable (and I note you're using CSS), it's pretty easy to do, without breaking your layout, when you use tables (not that I endorse tables for layout). In your stylesheet, you're declaring your body fonts as: font:10px Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; change this to: font:.8em normal Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; (note that font has three required properties; font-size, font-weight, font-family) and if you want to add the textarea to the inputs styling, you could do it like so: input, textarea{ /* my style info */ } All in all a really great site, I had to scratch around pretty hard to come up with the above :) HTH, Stephen http://www.mechavox.com ____ � The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM � ____ To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: "set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword" in the body of the email.
