Re: [WSG] Mac site check please...

[Nick Lo]

Hi Francesco,
It has some issues in earlier versions of IE PC You might want to check 
out (Just got my multiple versions of IE installed ( 
http://www.skyzyx.com/archives/000094.php ) so it's nice to be able to 
say that! ).

I had a quick look in IE Mac and it does have a few things needing 
sorting. I started giving it a crack but then thought: You seem to have 
a lot of <div> s and a fairly complicated HTML structure for a 
relatively simple page. Perhaps the best place to start would be to 
simplify as much as possible. e.g. just from a glance:

<div id="banner">
	 <div id="bannerLeft">
		<div id="logo"><img src="media/logo.gif" alt="Blackcoil Productions" 
title="Blackcoil Productions" /></div>
		<div id="page"><img src="media/pageHome.gif" alt="Home" title="Home" 
/></div>
	</div>
	<div id="nav">
		<ul><li id="navHome"><a href="Home.aspx" alt="Home" title="Home"><img 
src="media/navHome.gif" /></a></li><li id="navAbout"><a 
href="About.aspx" alt="About" title="About"><img 
src="media/navAbout.gif" /></a></li><li id="navCode"><a 
href="Code.aspx" alt="Code" title="Code"><img src="media/navCode.gif" 
/></a></li><li id="navPhoto"><a href="Photo.aspx" alt="Photo" 
title="Photo"><img src="media/navPhoto.gif" /></a></li><li 
id="navBlog"><a href="Blog.aspx" alt="Blog" title="Blog"><img 
src="media/navBlog.gif" /></a></li></ul>
	</div>
</div>

...looks like it could easily become...
<div id="banner">
	<div id="bannerLeft">
		<img id="logo" src="media/logo.gif" alt="Blackcoil Productions" 
title="Blackcoil Productions" />
		<img id="page" src="media/pageHome.gif" alt="Home" title="Home" />
	</div>
	<ul id="nav"><li id="navHome"><a href="Home.aspx" alt="Home" 
title="Home"><img src="media/navHome.gif" /></a></li><li 
id="navAbout"><a href="About.aspx" alt="About" title="About"><img 
src="media/navAbout.gif" /></a></li><li id="navCode"><a 
href="Code.aspx" alt="Code" title="Code"><img src="media/navCode.gif" 
/></a></li><li id="navPhoto"><a href="Photo.aspx" alt="Photo" 
title="Photo"><img src="media/navPhoto.gif" /></a></li><li 
id="navBlog"><a href="Blog.aspx" alt="Blog" title="Blog"><img 
src="media/navBlog.gif" /></a></li></ul>
</div>

...and looks like it could potentially still be reduced. The simplified 
HTML would allow simpler CSS and therefore make debugging a lot easier 
as well.

S'what I think anyway,
Nick

It looks perfect to me on: Win IE 6, Win FF 0.9, and Win Opera 7.
