No, you used PHP, Html and CSS. PHP simply sends html to the browser, your browser then interprets that html to make the page. And no, not all browsers work the same unfortunately. @ dan-t: More definitively, when a browser (user) asks for a php page, the server (most likely apache) recieves the request. This file is in turn handed to the server-side php interpreter (due to the php extension in the file name), which in turn examines and executes the code within the php tags, and replaces this content with the end result (in the form of html), which is in turn handed back to the server, which is finally handed over to the browser with all php code parsed. So depending on how old the browser is, and how old the code in the php page is, will determine any issues from that standpoint.. but as a rule, with a modernized browser and good clean up-to-date php code, there should be no issues. As for CSS, this is a different ballgame altogether, as CSS is not server-side technology.. this is entirely dependant on the broswer, and thus can have major ramifications if the user uses CSS code that the browser does not understand. It is fairly safe to code in CSS 2.1 these days, as most browsers support this... if you start using some CSS 3 code however, don't expect any smooth sailing anytime soon Wow, most of that went over my head! I don't even know what CSS 3 is. But thanks for that info.

Maybe that's why he's asking for a critique cause he knows it needs it. Why don't you give him some pointers and suggestions instead of 2 word replies that are useless. -The color scheme is a poor choice. Use one of those color generator sites to find something that fits your site. -The head needs some work. You have a blue/gray background in the header with a red block that has the title of your site. Doesn't look too good. -I like how you utilize the full page but you need to add more content. What kind of feedback are you looking for? Design? Layout? Everything? I'm afraid everything would be the best answer. Thanks for the help, I tend to have a bit of trouble picking colors, slight color deficiency, I'll keep trying.

I followed the instructions. I do not know if it worked or not. Thanks for the help Hope it worked

One question, PHP is supposed to be a server side language, and look the same no matter who is looking at it. But if you look at it with foxfire, it takes my right side column and puts it on the bottom left-hand side. Why? I used PHP and CSS. It should be the same in every browser, shouldn't it? Thanks Dan

Sorry on that reply I meant to say, that is very cool, not that it. I have two validators saved in my favorites, But i was not sure if thay validated PHP.

I just checked out colorblender.com, That it very cool. Thank you very much. I'll change my colors asap. Please let me know if there no good.

Great advice! I'll do it, but it may take some time. I'm more than a little slow at this.(understatement!) Thanks again.

Thank you very much for the help! I really do appreciate it. Actually that's just the way I learned in the class I took to do it. I know I have a long way to go. But currently I am not sure if I know another way to do it. If I change the URL, I don't want to change it being in the middle column. I'll work on it, and hope I don't screw something up! Thanks Dan

Hi, Yes, that's true. I have only been using PHP for about 2 months. But what does it need. More color? More motion? My last site was static. The complaint was it was hard to navigate in. I don't have, and cannot afford Dreamweaver or any thing like that. I checked on ebay, and people want alot of money for those authoring systems, so I guess I'll stick to my note pad. I did just buy Fireworks, but I don't know how to use it yet. I do this merely for fun. It's a hobby, not a living. I do appreciate the reply. A main concern is the warning it was giving people about being possibly a phishing site. Hopefully it is not doing that anymore, but who knows. Thanks Dan

I had another post about a friend getting a phishing warning on the site. Please let me know if you get that warning, or how to report it not being one of those sites(phishing that is). Thanks

I recently redid my site in PHP. I really like using the language, no doubt I wish I knew more than I do. A friend called me yesterday evening to tell me he went to the new site, and a warning said it could be a phishing site, and not to leave any personal information. I am using PayPal for security reasons. I trust them more than I trust my limited knowledge. Is there a place, or a way I can report it as NOT being a phishing site? I would leave a link or address, but I don't think it is permitted. Thanks Dan
