    What is the professional way to design a website?

    Using tables to layout your web page is considered a real no no, do a google on the subject and you will find plenty of articles explaining why. There is nothing wrong with using images, providing it is not possible to achieve the same effect with css/html. Why do you need tuition at all ...

    help with ie6 problems

    I have had a quick look at the HTML and at least some of your problems are because there is some code in there to only include some tags if the browser is IE7. Your HTML reads: <li><a href="http://www.thepixelhouse.com/ferdi/contact.html"><b>Contact/Order</b><!--[if IE...

    HTML to CSS?

    css (Cascading Style Sheet) just holds the style information for elements within your page, for example: <div style="width:200px;background-color:black;color:white"> blah </div> Could be handled like this: <div id="divExample"> blah </div> In the .css file: #divExample {...

    Site feedback?

    Hi, Your site looks better having the trimmed down menu. Another couple of points: a) There seems to be a lot of google ads on the site, I know you need to make money but it seems excessive and is clouding the actual content. b) This is linked to point a, you need to make your...

    Aesthetics/look of my website - suggestions

    If you put together a sample page which demonstrates this issue and either post it here or better still put it on your web server (not as your index but as example.htm or something like that) I might be able to tell you why you are losing the ads.

    Critique Please

    Looks great. I like the idea and the design. I agree that maybe the links might need to stand out a bit more, but that said I had no problem navigating around the site. Could someone please explain why a couple of the previous posts say "get a flash site" ? Why would you want to scrap a...

    Centered Suckerfish Menu with Auto Item Width

    I am not familiar with the menus you have mentioned, and it's difficult to give advice without some code to look at, but to make the centering cross browser compatible you will probably need to wrap your menu in a div and apply the centering to it. Post a url/code and I can give you more...

    Aesthetics/look of my website - suggestions

    I don't think you should be looking at stretching your header to fit the body. You should be reducing the body so it is the same width as the header. That header graphic is exactly the correct maximum width for a 800X600 screen. The reason a lot of web sites have padding either side of...

    Site in need of help!!!

    Without meaning to sound harsh, in my view this site needs a complete overhaul. If you are a proficient web developer then hit the zend cart site and start reading, if not then I reckon your best bet is to shell out some $ to get someone to help you sort it out. When someone arrives at a...

    IE adds linebreak?

    Can you give me some more info as to why this would break your page ? Anyway the code was meant as a guide more than anything else, my main point is that I have often noticed these subtle differences between IE and Firefox and I find using the css trick a great help.
