  1. Thanks for your input. I figured as much too. I could not figure out what to reduce without loosing some the graphics. My client really likes the site layout. I'll try to play with it some more, before creating the other pages. Just out curiosity what connection speed do you have, and how long did it take for you? Thanks
  2. With every site I create, I want it more challenging than the last. This is my first site with a lot of graphics and textures. I'm struggling with speeding up the load time. I’m playing with the code, css, and graphics. I’ve been able to reduce a lot of the graphics without losing image quality. The biggest issue is that I use a lot of pngs with shadows, and I’m having trouble with keeping them smooth during optimization. The main one is my wrapper bg graphic. The original was a png, but I changed it to a gif. I was able to significantly reduce it, but the shadow is horrible. I played with the dithering, but can’t get it to look real. The graphic has the burlap and leather texture. I’ve thought about creating a wrapper 1 and wrapper 2, so I can split the two. Any suggestions would be helpful.

  3. I had the same issue with a flash gallery and a tooltip. Making the gallery background transparent worked for me.
  4. Just included a jquery slider on this website. I used jquery before, but they we're cut and paste scripts without any knowledge of css. I ran into a few conflicting scripts, but after a few hours of cursing at the computer, I figured it out. Now that I have a better understanding of how jquery works, I want to change the "Specials Box" Tooltip. It looks plain with just text. mustangsand motorsports.c om
  5. Is the an easy to use CMS that would allow a client to update text only on a website, and with a character limits. Also, be able to set it up on an existing php website. I would like to learn about using cms as well, but start with a program that is easy to learn.
  6. I was told instead of downloading the latest jquery file, you can link to it, so you don't have to manually update it. Is this true? I looked around on the jquery site, and could not find anything.
  7. I want to add a jquery Coda slider 2.0 to a website, but when I add it the code breaks. It seem to effect the css. I tried isolating it, but without success. This is my first time using jquery. I want the slider to replace the 2nd paragraph that includes the Steeda logo. This is the website before adding the slider - mustan gandmotorsports.c om This is the website after adding the slider - mustan gandmotorsports.c om/index2.php Here is the code with the slider added: ----------------------------------------------------------- <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>San Diego's Domestic Automotive Performance Repair Specialists- Renegade Performance Mustangs and Motorsports</title> <meta name="DESCRIPTION" content="Located in San Diego, California, Renegade Performance Mustangs and Motorsports specializes in performance upgrades and repairs for Ford Mustangs and other domestic cars and trucks.

  8. Trying to gain control of jquery

  9. I'm designing a website for a Automotive Upholstery Shop. I've been challenging my photoshop skills with this project. Going to start slicing it up next week. Fun, fun.... I've been posting the projects progress on my blog. ht tp://david-dm t.blogspo t.com/ (remove spaces)
  10. I read Smashing magazine. It covers all aspects of web design. Here is the link: www.smashingmagazine.com
  11. During my first css class, I was told to make my images slightly bigger when using em. When the screen size was increased, the images were better. However, when the screen size was reduced, the images would have a wrinkled appearance. I tried different sizes, and still could not get what I wanted. I like having control over my images, and appear how I made then in PS. Now I'm torn between making my layouts either 960 or 1027px. I guess I could choose a size in the middle.
  12. I've run into that same issues. I was just finishing up one project while one was on hold. When I got done, the client still did not have all the raw pictures I needed. Luckily, I was able to go to their shop, and take enough picture to make the site layout. Finaly, when I recieved a picture disc, it only had 10 pictures of the same thing. The site is for an automotive upholstery shop, and I need pictures of past work. I'm still waiting. I just use the time to work on the coding.
  13. I should make a test page using em and percentages, and see which one distorts the images the least. I have only done it using ems, and I did not like the results. I read that png images are the best for that. At the time I was using only jpegs.
  14. Thanks for your input. My work computer screen is a 13", and I have a little scrolling from right to left. Not enough to be a problem. I'm hesitant to make the layout in percentages to accomidate various screen sizes. I have an issue with images, and I'm not comfortable with how they turn out yet. I have made other sites around 960 px, but they look tiny on some of the bigger screens. Always a work in progress.
  15. I can understand your concern, but knowng about these issues is also being informed. GoDaddy was attacked my malware, but so does everyone elses server. It happens everyday. This one just got past them, and they corrected it. I've completely cleaned my site, and have not had any issues since. I can understand if that is the reason no wants to look at my site. I could have not have not said anything about the malware issues, but I wanted to share my experience, and keep people informed. This is a place to share ideas, and learn from others mistakes and issues. I hope I'm not being branded here.
  16. After experiencing my first issues with php, I'm ready for your critique. The malware issues were from the host's server. I learned alot from that experience though. After watching Stefan's php video on includes, I started to understand php more, but there is alot more I want to learn. I took a class that covered mysql, but I struggled with the instructor's explainations and examples. I will have to watch the other videos from Stefan. Anyways, here is my first php site. I still need to go back and add @ in front of all the includes though. ww w.musta ngsandmotors ports.c om - remove spaces
  17. I have read a little about php filters. With the latest issue I've had with Malware, is it possible to write a script to filter out malicious scripts? I would assume that it would have to kept updated.
  18. After much headache, I found it was not me after all. I just found out from GoDaddy, that there has been a Malware attack. Here is in short what they wrote. Hope this helps others that may have been affected. After more attacks, further evidence suggested the target was not WordPress. This is a complex attack with many components. Here is a high-level overview of how they occur: 1. The attacker is coordinating attacks against three different hosting providers for this to work. * At Hosting Provider ‘A’ – A malicious file is placed on hosting accounts at this provider. No two files have the same name. * At Hosting Provider ‘B’ – A file is uploaded listing the infected domain names and unique file names from provider ‘A.’ * At Hosting Provider ‘C’ – A malicious “scareware” site is placed on compromised accounts 2. After the attackers put their files in place, they use Hosting Provider ‘B’ to trigger the malicious files on Hosting Provider ‘A.’ When triggered, the malicious file: * Scans the hosting account for any php file * Injects malicious content, installing malware that directs to Hosting Provider ‘C’ * Removes any trace of itself from ‘Hosting Provider B’ 3. The attack is complete when an infected website receives a visitor. The visitor, if not adequately protected, will have malware installed on their machine. 4. The malware will alert the infected computer to purchase fake anti-virus software, located at Hosting Provider ‘C.’
  19. They said they were jointly taking care of the problem with other host providers. About 300 php sites were affected. In the meantime, they will scan and clean any effected sites for free. You have to email them, and they will do it with a press of a button. I asked them if I could buy one of those buttons. They said they're not for sale. lol If it were possible, I would create a virus that would set those loser's fingers on fire everytime they would touch a keyboard.
  20. After much headache, I found it was not me after all. I just found out from GoDaddy, that there has been a Malware attack. Here is in short what they wrote. Hope this helps others that may have been affected. After more attacks, further evidence suggested the target was not WordPress. This is a complex attack with many components. Here is a high-level overview of how they occur: 1. The attacker is coordinating attacks against three different hosting providers for this to work. * At Hosting Provider ‘A’ – A malicious file is placed on hosting accounts at this provider. No two files have the same name. * At Hosting Provider ‘B’ – A file is uploaded listing the infected domain names and unique file names from provider ‘A.’ * At Hosting Provider ‘C’ – A malicious “scareware” site is placed on compromised accounts 2. After the attackers put their files in place, they use Hosting Provider ‘B’ to trigger the malicious files on Hosting Provider ‘A.’ When triggered, the malicious file: * Scans the hosting account for any php file * Injects malicious content, installing malware that directs to Hosting Provider ‘C’ * Removes any trace of itself from ‘Hosting Provider B’ 3. The attack is complete when an infected website receives a visitor. The visitor, if not adequately protected, will have malware installed on their machine. 4. The malware will alert the infected computer to purchase fake anti-virus software, located at Hosting Provider ‘C.’
  21. After changing all my passwords, I still ran into same issues. I'm at a loss. I checked my remote files this morning, and noticed the malicious script was in all my inlcude files. After deleting all of it for the third time, I noticed the same code is now attached to all my php files. Dreamweaver called it server scripts. Is there a way to prevent this code from attaching itself when the pages are being called? I'm not sure how much of the code I can paste here without causing any issues, but the code starts with this: eval(base64_decode.... There is about 20 lines of code after that.
  22. I did find malicious code in all of my include files. The code was about 20 lines of code within php tags, and was in red. I deleted all of it, and I re-inserted the SimplePie code. No problems so far, and the site is loading faster. I also changed all my passwords. I hope this takes care of it. I never had this problem before but, I guess it is bound to happen sometime. I have learned alot building my first php site.
  23. Thanks for your input. When I first noticed the problem, I did change my passwords. I think I will reload all my pages, but without SimplePies RSS. It took 4 days for the fake http scan to re-appear again, so I'll give it a week.
  24. I also noticed that my pages were taking forever to load, so I looked at all of my code starting with the include files. I noticed that all of them had malicious code added inside of php tags. They took up about 20 lines. I removed it from all the pages, and the pages load fine. I do not know if it is related to the rss feed. This has never happened to me, so it's all new to me. I put alot of time into this site, and this stuff really sucks. I use Core FTP LE and Dreamweaver to upload my files. I'm wondering if it that is not secure enough. The site is hosted on GoDaddy, and they have there own ftp. Should I be uploading my files through their program? Again thanks for your help.
