Looks nice, works well and I didn't notice the lag in Firefox mentioned
earlier. I did see more of a lag in IE both in some of the images loading
and on the first rollover. Which brings up another point, if I were just
using IE I wouldn't stay on the site long because on my tablet pc the text
is too small to read comfortably and won't resize in IE. I tried. 11px text
is fine on an 800x600 screen but not on a 1400x1050 where there are 140
pixels per physical inch.
Yeah. I'm working for the designer. The designer says: "fixed-width fonts!". I says: "yawsah, massa". Nothing doing on that one :( I really did try to make the site accessible with exception to the fixed-width fonts though... Please don't tell SlimJimBuk on me :)
Because you specifically asked for Mac checks I walked over to my Mac and pulled it up in Safari. Download appeared even slower than on IE 6. Everything look about the same with the exception that the first dropdown entry "Overview" is not showing. Instead the top of the curve above the search box shows through and makes the line impossible to read. You better hope nobody using IE 5.2 for the Mac want to visit the site though. If I knew how to take a screen shot on the Mac I'd post a picture but it is a mess. The menu bar is at the top of the page. No dropdowns. The legal forms logo doesn't show up at all and the other two boxes on the top for ads and shopping cart have the text at the top of the boxes not as they appear on the other browsers. On my Mac the screen resolution is 1024x768 and the text size is fine on both browsers.
Well crap on a stick. I don't mind putting more time into it and trying to fix the problems, but I've got no way to test and browsercam is SO SLOOOOOOOWWWW... I've really got to do something about not having a Mac to test on.
I'm on 5mps broadband for all the computers/browsers tested with. Windows is tablet PC aka Windows XP - SP 2, Firefox 1.0, IE 6, screen resolution 1050x1400 (I'm viewing in slate mode). Mac is OS X 10.3 with Safari (whatever the latest version is since it does push updates) and IE 5.2.
Thank you *very* much Cheryl! I'll alert my client and see what's doin'... I'm thinking this might be a case of serving IE 5.2 mac an unstyled page :(
Thanks Again, Stephen
