Andrea Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Can you load it up somewhere? I see your code, but with all those images I don't have, it's hard to try out. Add a clear: both; to the footer CSS. Other than that, just from looking at it so, I can tell you that: You have the wrong doctype (should be HTML) There are 2 charsets in your header You design for 1024 at 1024 - which means folk viewing at 1024 will have a horizontal scroll bar. You probably don't need all those absolute positions or height settings. You have CSS in your header and more of it in the external stylesheet - should be all external. You don't need JavaScript for simple hovers - you can do that much neater with CSS. Overall, all this css/html/javascript makes for a pretty messy-looking code-page. I'd drop the fancy stuff and focus on the main layout first, then add in all the extras - if they are really necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunchy Posted April 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Hi Thelma, Thanks for your response. My internet has been intermittent in the last day or two so i have only just got to respond now. I noticed the two charsets and deleted those - had cut and paste some code when i was tired. i changed it to html. i trimmed down the superfluous stuff and added all css to the external. i do want to keep some interesting rollovers and not have yet another generic looking page, so the rollovers were kind of my way of doing that i guess. but i will look into creating that effect with css. you're a lifesaver - added the clear: both; to the footer and it managed to do as it was told and stop invading my page. I have chosen to design for my majority market and cant deal with a 800x600px resolution as it will make the pages scroll for ages, so what i have decided to do is create a separate style sheet that will load on request (according to the users browser) to cater for 800x600 users etc. I just wanted to make my page work first in the first place with my first design which was aimed at the most common majority of my audience. thanks again for your help!! :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrea Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 I didn't say you should design for 800 width - but it looks like you meant to design for 1024, but didn't consider the scrollbar - so you should set the width of your page at around 990 or so - so folk who view at 1024 (which, you're right, these days is one of the more commonly used viewing widhts) won't get said scrollbar. --- You can do roll-overs on hover with CSS just the same as with JavaScript - but those work even when JavaScript isn't, and the code is so much neater and leaner. Ideally all your CSS should be in an external stylesheet - ESPECIALLY the general styles like body and footer - that's the whole point of the external stylesheet, so styles are applied site-wide.

hunchy Posted April 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 OK. Then that size is the happy medium for both older and newer users. no i dont want any horrible scroll bars on my pages! ill work on that next. and i dont want bloated pages so if i can manage to do the rollovers with css then all the more better. thanks.

Andrea Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 OK. Then that size is the happy medium for both older and newer users.But it isn't - both, 800 AND 1024 viewers will have scroll bars. Granted, 1024s won't have much of one, but it'll be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunchy Posted April 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Ah ok i see what you mean. That line was supposed to be more of a question actually rather than a statement - i forgot to put a question mark where i put a period. I dont want scroll bars on the 1024, but i understand that i will have to sacrifice a little and perhaps the the 800s will get one. as long as the bulk of the people i am designing for (bigger screens and higher resolutions) will see the page as it should be. thanks!

Andrea Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Designing for 1024 is a happy medium -- but in order to properly design for it, you have to consider the space the scroll bar takes up - so you have to set your width for a little LESS than 1024 - like 990ish - so those viewing at 1024 will NOT get the (short but none-the-less a) scrollbar.
