pauro Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Hi there, noob here. Just started work on my first website. www.jomcweeney.co.uk It's looking decent but the problem seems to be with the size on different browsers. How do I make sure that the size will work well with all browsers and platforms? Page size in DW is 980x980. And background is black but can't seem to get it quite centred. Any ideas? Incidentally not too hot on codes... Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrea Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Put your entire content into a wrapper div, and in your CSS, set it at #wrapper {margin: 0 auto;} - that'll center it, and folks viewing with larger resolutions will just see more of the background on each side. However, you have all kinds of coding problems, including the missing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauro Posted August 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Hi, thanks for your swift reply. I'm not good on codes so is it possible to ask what a wrapper div is and how you create one? Is it the same as a Div Tag? Where do I include the missing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newseed Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 (edited) I agree with Thelma about the load issue. Although it loads ok in IE (still a little slow), I had to refresh it in Firefox in order to get the background image to appear which is over 500kb. That's too heavy. You are trying to get the visual layout by making the entire page with images. You really need to take some basic html/css tutorials to help you achieve the visual design that you are looking for while minimizing the use of images and create fasting loading time plus more SEO friendly.
