Ireland Newbie here in need of advice.


Eenya,

The structure of the page starts to break up when the horizontal size of the browser window is more than 1024px. It renders perfectly up to that point. Vertical change makes no difference. Again, I regret my inability to do more than be the bearer of undesirable tidings!

It`s a nice clean layout, nice soft colors, but these issues will continue to manifest themselves until you learn the code. Not only can you troubleshoot the problems, but you can fix them, or avoid them altogether. IMHO, if you`re serious about Web Design, it`s mandatory.
WYSIWIGS have their place, and are very handy at times. On the other side of the coin, they can be very limiting, as well as sometimes writing messy, bloated code.
That said, it`s also time to try and break away from table layouts. CSS is really cool. When you have your colors, fonts, layout in the same document, you can change one page (the CSS) and have site wide implementation. It also cleans up the HTML, so editing is a breeze, too. Good thing to learn that, too.

just my .02

p.s. Upon reading this again, it sounds harsh. That was not my intention. I`m just advocating Web Standards, and pushing in a direction that will make it much easier for you in the long run. More learnign now, lots less work later.
 
Thanks Welles,,,

Tomorrow I will play some more with it...

Night from Ireland [shhh]

:) Thank you for your advice....I have taken it on board and cleaned up a lot of the code. As I do not have the browser in question. Maybe someone could check the website again for me to see if I am on track. http://www.rapidkilkenny.ie
I am a very serious web designer and willing to learn to get it right. All advice taken with thanks.

Hey Eenya try this......

<tr><td width=315 height="118" align="left"><img src="images/Rapid_logo.gif" width="315" height="118"></td>
<td width=222 height="118" align="left"><img src="images/kids_top.gif" width="222" height="118"></td>
<td width=202 height="118" align="left"><img src="images/rapid_people.gif" width="218" height="118"></td>
<td width=141 height="77">&nbsp; </td></tr>

you may ask what is different....... just the align try this before Welles has a look at it for you [innocent] and if that doesn't work hmmm will keep thinking he he he

That won't work..

Sue I did all that last night it was one of the first things I gave a try at....I have another idea which I am working on right now ....
Fingers crossed that it will work but it means a lot of hand codeing....

Good morning (in California) Eenya,

The problem is not with a specific browser but the size of the window. I've attached a screen shot of how that site looks in a window which fills a 1600 X 1024 screen. The site looks the same in that window size in Safari, Camino, Netscape 7.0.1, and Internet Explorer. I don't believe it has anything to do with browsers or platform. Anyone who can set their screen resolution larger than 1024 X 768 and fill their screen with a browser window would start to see the site change from your intent to something more like the image I'm posting.

Sorry I can't be more helpful. If Mark would drop by this thread, he would know the answer right off, I feel sure.
 
Good Afternoon

Good morning Welles from a good afternoon in Ireland...

Ok I have worked on it a bit more....I think maybe it might be better. If you have a moment could you look and tell me...

Eenya saying thanks! :)
 
Eenya,

I've cut out the extraneous white so you don't have a full window image, just the portion of the page which is rendered.
 
Welles

Welles if you get a moment can you check it again? Maybe this time I am on the right track....Thanks Eenya
 
Welles

Hi Welles.....I Thank you again for checking for me...

When I get a bit more time I will play some more with it......

Slan leat....
