well i wasn't necessarily meaning dial-up .. i just mean users with usage limits on their broadband.. but fair enough.. did you make the program? ----- Registered, went to submit a website but apparently I entered an invalid URL, must need http://?? but then I clicked back and it lost everything I put so, probably wanna stop that.. but registered now and all seems to work well...

on the page where you display a website... how are you generating the image may i ask? Jus interested thats all... but I would say it would probably be better if you had 'overflow:auto;' on it, for example... http://www.webcriticz.com/index.php?p=display&sid=32 ... is a massive image in length .. also in size (memory) .. won't it be a little too much to expect the user to download? especially those with usage limits ... not to mention the usage on your server? Apart from that I think you're off to a good start, just needs some work... something seems to be missing... Adam!

email confirmation thing dunt work... entered a gmail.com email address but I'v never received any email? ...and i'v always thought if the adds aren't making money yet, not much point in showing them? Adam x

feel ya dog! well iv done some changes and stuff.. worked on better logo.. remember the website sells "ECOFLOW" products, most known products being little magnets that you wear round your wrist to like improve blood flow or summit! Thats sort of where the 'inspiration' came from... Anyway middle section I'm a bit stuck with at minute.. doesn't flow too well at all.. so that's still being messed with as clearly stated on the image... but err anyway new comments welcome.. http://www.minimerc.co.uk/images/design.jpg Cheers! adam!

To be honest you've got a real good start towards a logo... that could be turned into something beautiful! But rest, yeah, just all looks too bland... Adam

haha ! ah well.. here it is... http://www.minimerc.co.uk/images/design.jpg

Well im in the middle of designing a web page that I'm setting up for a family friends small on the side business.. I've not got any web hosting at the second so I can't upload it but I do have a quick screen shot.. if you could all tell us what you think? tried and tested in firefox and IE .. fully compliant .. not completely finished tho, banner needs bit of work and so does few elements on the page but it's just a quick preview... http://mail.google.com/mail/?view=att&disp=inline&attid=0.1&th=1187bc5afa33527f Cheers!

Well you'd need a large database containing all of the zip codes for reference as a start. Then perhaps working with longitude/latitude to work out the distance from something? I'm not too sure, it's something I've only ever briefly looked into. You can pay a subscription price for a regularly updated zip code database or you can just buy one but I very much doubt you'll get it updated. I found this easily on google: http://www.zipcodeworld.com/ Adam

I'm in the process of creating a friends system for my site. I'm really stuck trying to figure out how I could select the user info for each of the friends using JOIN. I have the db table setup like this: user_a | user_b | confirm --- MOD --- I've got a little closer, I now have the query: SELECT DISTINCT t1.*, t2.* FROM spawnusers AS t1, spawnfriends AS t2 WHERE t1.userid = t2.user_a OR t1.userid = t2.user_b This though returns everything twice, for example, if 'user_a' equaled 1 and the 'user_b' equaled 2, then when it gets to 'userid' (from the user table) 1 it will select it, and when it gets to 'userid' 2 t will select it. DISTINCT doesn't seem to be working? Idea of it is so i can then run a php script which prints out which connections are confirmed and which aren't. Can anybody help? Cheers!

I've got to agree with filmgod.. needs some images and rollovers on the nav. When I see the front page it looks a little daunting to read, too much text presented in the same way. Images will help to break up the information and make it easier to read. Apart from that you do seem to be on to a good design... good colour scheme and looks neat. Adam

Not a right lot really to give much feedback, but, colours work well. Fairly simple and neat. Not too keen on the little text at the bottom outside the main content. Inputs look a little plain compared to the rest of the site. Also few grammar mistakes; "Please, be allowed to choose a file". Apart from that well done - Adam

like the design, simple and neat. the banner seems to be a bit low quality in some places but does fit in. I'd swap the "advertisers" and "login" boxes around. Not too keen on the altering background colour on the product review pages, reckon it should be a little lighter. Apart from them all good! Adam

you can't do it without slicing up the image. But if you want to make a decent website you're going to need to slice up that image and layout the page with divs and smaller, more usable images. Apart from that, once you have some content and detail on the pages I think it'll look pretty good! Though the text on the nav doesn't fit much at all, i don't know if you're planning to change it? Adam

It can definitely be done with PHP .. not too sure how though.

if ($result) { echo "Successful"; echo "<BR>"; echo "<a href='form.php'>Back to main page</a>"; } else { echo "ERROR"; }

I've been developing this site for some time now. At this stage I'm not going to create a whole new design, but if anybody can give some suggestions on parts of it they think could be improved, that would be very helpful. Could you please also tell me your thoughts about the design, structure, etc. And if anybody finds any exploits could you please PM me with them. www.minimerc.co.uk Cheers, Adam

if (??? == substr($str,0,3)) $str's value will not change after using substr() unless you set $str as substr(...) : $str = substr($str,0,3); - Adam

I imagine you'd have to look into using "JOIN" .. to join the select and the count queries.. then i reckon you might be able to order them by the count. Search google for "JOIN". - Adam

code isnt that great.. been messing with for hours... <div id="wrapper"> <div id="header"><img src="imgs/adams-work.gif" alt="Adam's Work" /></div> <div id="tborder"><img src="img/top-border.gif" alt="" width="774" height="10" /></div> <div id="main"> <div id="lborder"><img src="img/left-border.gif" alt="" width="9" height="287" /></div> <div id="content"> </div> <div id="rborder"><img src="img/right-border.gif" alt="" width="10" height="287" /></div> </div> <div id="bborder"><img src="img/bottom-border.gif" alt="" width="774" height="10" /></div> <div id="footer"><img src="imgs/designed-by.gif" alt="Designed by Adam Boxall" /></div> </div> CSS #wrapper{ width:774px; height:auto; margin:20px auto; text-align:left;} #main{ clear:both;} #lborder{ width:9px; float:left; background:url('img/left-border-bg.gif') repeat-y;} #rborder{ width:10px; float:left; background:url('img/right-border-bg.gif') repeat-y;} #content{ width:755px; float:left; background:#FFFFFF;} td.main{ width:755px; background:#FFFFFF;} - cheers

Hi all, im trying to recreate my portfolio and make it validate as XHTML without any layout problems... At the minute I have a problem in FF where its adding padding to my div which contains an img. In the images attached you can see the difference between FF and IE, and Iv added a blue border to make it obvious. Iv tried adding margin:0px and padding:0px to the div container.. even to the image itself.. except it still just wont get rid of this extra padding in FF, and I don't know why its there.. - Can anyone help? Cheers, Adam [attachment deleted by admin]

it looks really rough.. not keen on the fonts, big gap under the nav, header doesn't look very impressive and there's some padding problems when you view it with firefox... lacks detail.

i think the navigation could be a bit better.. the links aren't really appealing. Really could do with some content, couldn't you make up a little "lorem ipsum" mock page? Would give a better idea on how its going to look. -adam

The headers nice, but im not keen on the marquee below it. The shoutbox looks too out of place, I think it would look more at home at the side of the content, or perhaps on its own page. Other than that I think you've done well.. the colours and the little menus all fit well. -Adam

I think the images are a little too blury, and the colours seem a little bland. The website doesn't really catch your eye. Id say perhaps create a better nav menu, use a variety of text sizes and try to create a header a little sharper and more eye catching.
