Maybe not on Christmas day itself, but in general it would be nice. :)

In the styles section at the top of the page, remove from the body margin-right: 1000px; which is currently pushing all of your content to the far left of the page. I also highly recommend picking up a Firefox extension called Firebug, which lets you inspect all the elements of your page and...

Overall, your plan seems to be pretty solid. My main concern with the stated goal above is that the store is basically invisible now. After reading through the thread, I went to the site, and it took me a good few minutes to find a link to the online store when I was actually looking for it...

Hey folks, Been a while since I've posted, but just ran across this touching YouTube video and wanted to share. Really relevant for a lot of people, and full of powerful images. "All I Want for Christmas is a Job" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw_8_uTrqS0 ~ Nathan

Yes? You're absolutely right. Either he's lying or being ripped off. Unfortunately, lying is by far the more likely option. If he's not lying, then his "SEO People" either guessed the Joomla admin username / pw or the Database Admin / pw, which I suppose would be something you set up. I'm...

Haha, well, I thought that would be obvious. But I kind of assumed if he's claiming they don't have Joomla admin that he didn't randomly give the SEO people database access. :p That said, clients have done way crazier things.

A link the the page in question is really helpful in cases like this. There's a lot of developer tools, Firebug specifically, that can help us to have an interactive look at the page itself.

This is really dependent upon your hosting. A lot of web hosting companies make this fairly difficult. One thing that most require at this point is that the From address you're using to send mail from w/ the script is an email address that actually exists on your domain. For example, if you were...

Hi Sioonoo, We all started where you are at some point in time. Web design / development is just like any skill, it's something that you'll get better at with practice. When I started, if I wasn't using a tool like Dreamweaver or Frontpage (/shudder) I was completely lost. After working...

As dave mentioned, it'll be best to take a look at some of his links for a basic understanding of html and css. As for the problem of it not showing home.html first, there are two options. As dave stated, you could just change home.html to index.html and that will probably work. You can...

Having worked with Joomla almost exclusively for the last year, there's nothing at all that they could do without access to the Joomla admin. They certainly couldn't turn on SEO URLS without access. (Btw, I do highly recommend turning this on generally, it makes a huge difference for SEO...

With my previous employer we had set up a Facebook page and a blog at our website. I see Facebook for the business side of things as a potentially useful tool, if you can get your friends to "Like" your page. Another possibility is to just occasionally post status updates on your personal page...

As Bcee mentions, Javascript is the answer. Google can also very much be your friend here. Try searching for something like: dynamic html form You'll find tons of tutorials. Best of luck! ~ Nathan

In my last job, we used templates heavily, and I see no reason not to as long as you're up front with your clients about it. That said, what we generally did was use the template as a starting point and heavily customize it. Most clients don't like the sound of "using a template" but if you...

While this does work, I highly recommend resizing the image yourself rather than relying on the browser to resize images, for two reasons: 1) Browsers are generally really bad at it. At the very least, they're unreliable when it comes to maintaining a quality image. 2) You're wasting data...

Hi Anna, I put together a quick sample of what I mean. The working demo link is down, so I just used a couple of quick images from your original post, but you should be able to replace the menu image w/ your menu code and have it work the same way. Example is at...

HEADER IMG - <img src="images/jpg/header_organic_gray.jpg" width="980" height="85" class="Image100pct" /> LOGO IMG - <img src="../../../assets/jpgs_for_web/dark_logo_smaller_gray.jpg" width="250" height="103" class="logoPosition" />name="NavigationMenu" --> MENU DIV - <div id="p7PMM_1"...

Hmm... I'll have to give this some thought. Had some good ones over the past few years. My first thought when I saw this though was the following cartoon from The Oatmeal. Scarily accurate for some jobs. http://theoatmeal.com/comics/design_hell
