    Error?

    Importantly without the code its impossible to diagnose properly. Ask your client if she's ok releasing the code to you so you can investigate. At the very least if your client can describe what it is they're trying to do and what they were doing when this error appeared.

    Help required. Starting my own website

    Dreamweaver is easier to start out with, but to really learn, you should make sure you turn off the auto complete tags tool for a start. Because it can do quite a lot for you (not necessarily valid code either) people tend to see it as a shortcut - but inthe end if you cheat, you don't learn...

    Open sourse content management

    I've been researching a few recently and one I'm keen to try when I get the chance is MODx. It creates clean valid XHTML pages and external CSS, rather than in-line CSS, making usability/accessibility/SEO much easier than some others. Out of the box, apparently, it works just fine as a CMS. If...

    Webdesigner who loves cars?

    that svt is *fecking* awesome. Its difficult to say what needs to be done as your site is fed from another source so the 'view source' shows nothing.

    CSS Menu Dilemma

    Its good to practice with this menu system, may as well see it through ;) By jiggle I mean it pushes everything below it down by a pixel or two, so try increasing your padding/margins by a couple pixels - give it the nav more room to grow into. With removing a nav choice, similar to...

    I need help......

    Well, point us to your url at least or post your code as .txt tiles - we don't know what you've done and nothing helps better than seeing the problem in context. All your answers, though, you'll find via Google - sites like this are not quick replacements for your own research, they are...

    What about Logo Design

    1st rule, it should be simple and easy to remember/recognise and not full of superfluous detail. Typography plays a crucial role as it takes years of branding and marketing to rely solely on a 'shape' - think McDonalds for instance.

    Company Site - Constructive Criticism Needed

    Fix your validation errors (6 markup, 2 css) and although I like the icons (to a degree) you should not have to rollover to see what each one does. One of the critical rules is easy, intuitive and accessible navigation. Its not what you think, its what your sites potential users think.

    CSS Menu Dilemma

    Its not the menu system itself thats at fault. In php you could use <?php include("menu.php"); ?> (menu.php being what ever the files called) plenty of tuts can be found on google. HTML server side includes could work, for example <!--#include virtual="insertthisfile.html" -->...

    For starters, your markup doesn't validate, 43 errors. For a web designer, thats a priority. Your css is ok though, so thats a start. You're pretty safe with the general colour scheme, dark gray and lime, although I'd take scootergrisen's advice and make the "affordable" text stand out more...

    At Home With Scott : Internet HomePage

    redirecting a web page

    Its the meta refresh tag you're referring to (<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="number of seconds;url=domain.com"/>). Don't forget is is considered poor practice by W3C and is not seo friendly - so no reason to use this anymore. Its preferable to set up any redirects in a .htaccess file...
