  1. I didn't know what else to call your backgound image. :)
  2. That repetitive "fire/ice" background theme is very annoying.

    Nice site! :) The only thing I suggest to change is the width of the home page. It's much bigger than all the other pages.
  4. At work we use PHP so that's why I am on a PHP forum. However, that site (www.exit911.com) is something I did on the site. :)
  5. do u know that it takes forever and ever to load???
  6. actually my XHTML document validates...so I don't understand...
  7. I would remove the Home link at the top, and instead point your banner to the home page. As well, remove the date and time from the top (it seems out of place there, and really does anyone need it?!). Give your top menu buttons a rollover effect. Make the width of all pages either static or span 100% width of the screen. Remove the Ads by Google from the right hand side - there is just way too much info on one page as is...and hard to really concentrate on anything.
  8. Regarding my last post - does anyone know the answer????
  9. I would decrease the font size for the general content to maybe 10px. The left menu, I would suggest switching the background header image with the background footer image. (This way the left menu would fit better into the header banner.)
  10. Very nice site. Easy to navigate. :)
  11. Not bad. Nice and clean look. Though I would change the left menu. The buttons look a bit unprofessional - too bulgy, too Photoshop embossed. Create a distinct 2-column layout by changing the background colour of left column. The actual blog entries, I would decrease the font size to maybe 10px, increase line height and maybe change font style to Verdana.
  12. Doesn't look like a proper site to me. Just a bunch of advertisements. Too dark, weird image in the center used for background. This site tells me nothing about its content.
  13. The site looks clattered up. Add some cellpadding and cellspacing. Consider changing the top menu to text or rollover images rather than the static images you are using now. The width of all pages is different. Make your pages span in height not width. Don't use so many colours at once (http://www.chartcountry.com/stats.html). Choose ONE background/foreground colour for headings and another for content.
  14. Too much white space and the site looks clattered up. Categories do not really stand out. Products on the main page could be put in nice bordered dividers...
  15. I think the site is a bit too grey and the menu buttons are too large. As well, the login on the home page does not stand out.
  16. I've validated the home page www.exit911.com and in terms of XHTML it's a perfect valid page now. However when I try to validate CSS, I get the following error message: [b]Please, validate your XML document first![/b] What XML document is this message referring to????????  :-\
  17. Thanks for all the tips.  :) Validating my pages is going to take some time...such a hassle!!!!!! I've just validated the home page...and only a million more pages to go! :P By the way, what is the benefit of having my pages validated? In regards to Firefox, I checked and the banner does change...not the same soft gradual effect but it does change. But what is the reason for the difference between Firefox and IE? Is not all Javascript supported by Firefox??? It's so frustrating to try and please ALL browsers!!! Why can't we have just one standard??? By the way, does anyone know which is the most popular browser these days in terms of %????
  18. I create all my graphics in photo shop and save them for web as JPG at MAX resolution. What alternate solution can I use to reduce the image size???
  19. On the following page [url=http://www.exit911.com]www.exit911.com[/url] I have a blue coloured column on right hand side. I am using <div> tag for and I want it to auto-span in height 100% so that it goes all the way to the bottom of the Copyright bar. How do I do that? I tried adding height:100% but that doesn't work completely... I using the following style for it right now: [code] .body_right { width:170px; padding:15px; float:left; background:#EEF1F7; text-align:center; } [/code]

    <div> tags

    What do u mean by "each element can only carry one id"??? Something along these lines?? <div id="test"> is correct but <div id="test" id="test2"> is incorrect...while <div class="test"> is correct and <div class="test" class="test2"> is correct as well????????

    <div> tags

    What is the difference between using ID and CLASS? Is it better to use one than another??? For example... <div id="frame">...</div>  and <div class="frame">...</div> #frame { width:777px; height:100%; margin-right:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; padding:0px; text-align:left; background-color: #FFF; } .frame { width:777px; height:100%; margin-right:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; padding:0px; text-align:left; background-color: #FFF; }
  22. I always use the Code View ONLY of Dreamweaver! Works great! And visually easier than NotePad! Just make sure to never EVER go to the Design View and try doing anything there! Another good software (free) is TextPad (it also colour - codes just like Dreamweaver and does not add any extra characters).
  23. What I always do when designing a new site is I find an existing one I like. Create a screen shot of it, paste it in PhotoShop then "cut it up" into little pieces and save each piece individually as .JPG and then add them all together again only this time using HTML and these images. Once you are done, start modifying the little images (adding your touches to it). In the end you will have a new cool looking site which won't be a rip off an existing one.  ;)
  24. You'll have to squeeze in a table inside the <TD></TD> tags and make sure you set the width of the table to 100% [code]<td background="images/news_'. $table_background .'.jpg" height="19" align="left" valign="bottom" align="center"> <table style="width:100%;font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:12px; color:#CCCCCC"> <tr> <td>'. $title .'</td> <td align="right"> '. $date .'</td> </tr> </table> </td>[/code]
