I agree with the film god, I cant see a reason why the site should be aimed at Christians, its not like somebody will type into google "christian linux help".

Try not to use GETYOURLINKON.NET too much, it makes the text harder and longer to read... you can just use "we" or something. Btw this is the critique forum, for more system testing.. try the BETA testing forum. I had a quick look though and security seems alreyt! but im not an expert with the sql injections and that. All seems to run smooth enough, not keen on the like confirmed registration messages and that on a seperate page tho.. seems to take too long, best having them just appear on the homepage or the apropriate page or something. adam

freakstyle: I cant imagine creating another variable, then having the extra line of code to return the variable, would be cleaner / more maintainable than just using 'return true/false' as it happens? it's pretty self explanitory what's happening...

everything they've said, plus, i'd say make the "proceed to order" image rounded to fit the rest of the site.

im affriad i have to agree with the others, the design looks like it was made with frontpage. the use of the <hr> tag (especially as it's not even styled) just looks unprofessional. I'd say try and improve the graphics, perhaps make the font a little smaller, get the nav links on one line, change the purple background as the colors just don't go well together, create a better header because.. i don't even know what it is.. also i'd say the image that changes on each page should be made more seperate to the text.. perhaps a light border and a little more spacing?

filmgod, i think the idea of his 'personal website' is to act as portfolio

if you google it you'll find probably millions .. why not just invest in some web space though? it's not that much these days and you'll probably get the domain thrown in for free..

think your problem is in your CSS .. #menu a { ... height: 46px; ... } try putting the image on the outside of the link and see if that makes a difference..

hmm, the link seems to be redirecting me to techbrainy.com? i can't see that being the site you mean.. -cheers

the clips are now cyclic, and automatic too.. making the font sizes larger and trying to get the doctype to work, but having few problems in IE (tut)... I saw someone post a link for a website that helps with problems in IE when trying to get it valid, but i can't find it again, could that person please post the link again? -Cheeeeers!

how are you running it? (you said: "If i just run the function display(5); it works") .. does it append that HTML to the page's HTML?

not sure bout this, but when you use: var something = function() { ... } you can't pass a parameter can you? nor would you need to as it's within the function with the variable..

To be honest if you said "web page editor" she'd know what you mean... though if she paid someone $75 to find some files on her computer then i'd say she's not likely to be getting a website anytime soon. But anyways .. after re-reading the text I can see it doesn't say excactly what I thought it said, but it still doesn't really make perfect sense.. I think they'd be more confused reading that than just saying what moberemk put.

Iv gotta say I think it's way too much like facebook, which is going to be your downfall! Anyone who's seen facebook will instantly recognise the similarity, as i did, and then they will probably leave. I'd suggest creating a new design and then you'll probably pull in more users..

to be honest, i imagine... ... is the case (aim) for any web developer? Plus I didn't quite get what you meant about software writing the programming language? Large companies will only re-use scripts they already have (or use frameworks, libraries, etc) at best, either way it's been written by a person. Design wise... I think you should try and use text rather than images for the titles... I like the sort of header layout, it's different, but I think you could make it more visually appealing .. at the moment i get what I describe as a "pixely" feeling... ..And like the others said, it'd be better to try and spread the content out over a few pages.

I've been creating my online portfolio and I'm after some genuine critique. I'm normally not very good with design, class myself as more of a programmer at heart. But I have worked hard on this one and I think it looks quite good (There will be loads of bugs with the programming side of it at the moment, but that's fine.. just please take a look at the design for the minute). Here's the link ... http://www.veraci7y.net/GameSpaces/portfolio/ Thanks!

as ober noticed, the fonts are too different .. a sans-serif font would be better to make it match the header more, you don't neccesarily need to use the same font. I don't know if it's because of the image quality of the image you posted, but the graphics look like they need to be sharper, like the header.

Hey. Could anybody please tell me how to position the background-image to center (horiztonally) and 50px from the top? -Cheers!

Im trying to create a javascirpt function which darkens the page and display an image. I was just wondering how I can retrieve the following values... - how high and wide the webpage is (not browser height / width) i mean content wise - how far on x + y scrollbars they have scrolled (in pixels) Cheers if ya can help!

I've tried browsing the site for a tutorial to explain a way of using key validation, but i couldn't find any. I've made a website ( www.minimerc.co.uk ) but I keep getting spam emails from the contact page! What I want to do is create a key validation - "type the characters you see in the image" - sort of thing. Now I have got really no ideas how to do this? Can anyone help? Cheers!

no.. PHP doesn't have access to the HTML DOM (hope i worded that right) ..

Managed to get rid all the errors apart from those from the SESSION .. I've also tried ini_set("session.use_only_cookies", 1); and that didn't work either ..

Thanks for the help, but it's still not working ... http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.minimerc.co.uk%2Fnew%2Fshop.php%3Fc%3DE-Class%26m%3DW114-W115

i wasn't sure where to post this, as i wasn't sure how it would be fixed. I'm trying to get my webpage to validate as strict XHTML, there's 1 or 2 errors i know how to fix, but this one i'm not sure... basically, the server appears to be generating "PHPSESSID=blahblah" (sometimes) on links and forms. Of course this means it's using "&PHPSESSID=blahblah" which means it's not validating. http://www.minimerc.co.uk/new/shop.php?c=E-Class&m=W114-W115 (not much works yet so no point in trying to view other pages) How can I stop the server from doing this (i have .htaccess rights, but cannot change the server configuration directly) - Thanks!

I'm trying to create a simple flash slideshow for a website i'm creating. I'm currently creatign a very simple preloader for it. i have a movie clip with the instance name of "loadbar" which I will make bigger to represent how much has been loaded - fairly standard. Here's my script at the moment: setProperty(loadbar,_width,0); b_loaded = getBytesLoaded(); b_total = getBytesTotal(); l_width = 185; while (b_loaded < b_total) { p_loaded = b_loaded / b_total * 100; single = p_loaded / 100; new_width = single * l_width; setProperty(loadbar,_width,new_width); b_loaded = getBytesLoaded(); } gotoAndPlay(2); But when I "Simulate" the download, it's causing an endless loop and crashing the program. Anybody know why it's not working ?? -Thanks
