guyfromfl Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Ive done all the work for this site, (ugh yes including gfx).. anyways i got a working template going, then made the CMS end... I want to make a more intersting back ground for the main section, and more color in general later on. What I'm asking is the layout as far as where to find info ok. between the myspace link and upcomming shows will be a place to hold flyers, endorcemnts etc... everything ::everything:: is driven by mysql from table widths to the news, shows, pictures and so on. all i want to know is how does it look to the end user who doesn't appriceate the thousands of lines of code to make that come up in your browser. by the way i did a nono and wont let IE look at it yet BTW WHY does the header float 20px under the nav bar only on the main page the link <a href="http://alchemy.servebeer.com/">http://alchemy.servebeer.com/</a> thanks for the help.

jos. Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 GFX are pretty good! the site would look nice and quite professional to the common visitor except those with wider screen resolutions due to the absolute positioning with the div #nav (not a good idea!) Couple of tips... 1: Use Fire bug : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1843 to help isolate issues and debug your code. 2: Use a div layout. it is cleaner and easier once you get the hang of it. and you end up with less spacing problems 3: http://validator.w3.org/#validate-by-upload validate often during coding. this will help you eliminate problems before they get buried and hard to find... 4: I see that you have your #nav in a <ul> and may have had some spacing issues with it falling 10-20px on your page... In the style sheet, I have found that It helps to use this for nav bars in a <ul> #nav ul{ display: inline;} it seems to solve that spacing issue... hope to have helped... Jos.

guyfromfl Posted December 13, 2007 Author Share Posted December 13, 2007 Thanks for the feedback. I have firebug and use validator.w3 usually at the end of the day tho. switching to a div/css layout might solve the IE incompatibility. The reason I went with tables was becasue Im only comfortable with absolute positioning... :-\ Thanks tho man Ill show you what I come up with.

guyfromfl Posted December 14, 2007 Author Share Posted December 14, 2007 By the way, Im redoing the structure so it doesn't look right now at all. So I know the table is out of the main area and it looks dumb now.

guyfromfl Posted December 16, 2007 Author Share Posted December 16, 2007 I redid some of the site using css instead of tables. Please let me know what you think!
