Besides Flash WHEN I downloaded a script from DynamicDrive that does not display correctly plus my popup home windows don’t work.

AFAIK there have been no changes for you to IE in SP2 other than the popup blocker. This causes difficulties with popups (duh), but that is it.

Within my oppinion, only about 10% connected with websites really glimpse and work excellent.

There all so excellent, like, I don’t know anyone who might even come close… Also, I can signal and markup about 90% of the sites on right now there, so I don’t need anymore coding or html/css knowledge (just a number of 3d design as well as flash effects along with I’ll be all set). Only 10% of websites look good and work great Sorry pal, nonetheless that’s complete b******s! What would you rather have – an effective, yet pretty good site that offers powerful content, rapidly, or a sluggish loading, but pretty impressive site of which delives OK written content Myself, I’d opt for the former.

MS Office Live websites

MICROSOFT Office Live, which I am some sort of beta member, is known for a free website and website name. The idea sucks. I listed with http: //www. alanhogan. net/ plus its just an hideous 1999 template wizard that you just run in your browser. Really. I used software this way half a decades ago. I also couldn’t see any selections to post HTML PAGE or other files that i actually created, with the exception you could upload images. Don’t jump for this horrendously crappy providing from Microsoft. Live Mail is utterly worthless, especially in Firefox. There’s not even a check many checkbox when viewing a folder. Now some other Microsoft beta programs that I am a member far more significant than Stay Mail, those are nice. Some programs specifically are monumental advancements over their good old versions, although it’s eerie to get Microsoft call me following on bug reports. they actually call your own home For among the dozen or consequently bugs I submitted.

First post: Charset issue – suspected server problem affecting web pages

About my server (run because of the wonderful folk with Media Temple) that will serves my web page Pixelsurgeon (which is currently undergoing a redesign) the DefaultCharset in the primary httpd. conf is actually ISO-8859-1, but I’m wondering if it needs to be set to UTF-8. For illustration of the condition check out bug #4 here: http: //dropbox. pixelsurgeon. com/bugs/ which is an XHTML page set to UTF-8. There are a few double-byte characters (Japanese, China, Korean) and several accented characters and several Polish. Instead connected with displaying correctly, which jointly do using UTF-8, they manifest as gibberish. HOWEVER – in the event you MANUALLY set the particular Text Encoding to help UTF-8 (for example View > Textual content Encoding > UTF-8 in Firefox) everything snaps just how it should. It’s almost as if the text encoding fact < meta http-equiv=" content-type" content=" text/html; charset=utf-8" /> in the head is becoming ignored. Locally on my machine (Mac OSX which uses a version of UTF-8 for text encoding) everything is fine and also the page works precisely as it should. It just stops working when uploaded towards server. The most apparent thing I can think about is a mismatch somewhere between … Continue reading

We have an Access 07 databases of sites (grid recommendations, disabled toilets etc) and need to create an active image map and form that income the requested facts. I know it needs to be pretty straightforward, I just don’t learn how to do it. I have experience as the designer but coming from, oh, about 6-8 typical, and that ended up being just building somewhat functionless sites intended for information only. I have a new vague idea that MySQL arrive into this certain times, but when plus how is further than me. The present site was written by another, maintained by another and has virtually nothing related to me. It seemed to be written in dreamweaver, hosted with BT… very dreary, ordinary SME products. I’m confident enough about developing a hyperlinked image map however the form / database has left myself completely lost. … Continue reading

Can safari on OSX behave differently than safari with Windows Firefox in OSX, Windows, Linux Providing the pages are made using cross web browser standards (valid HTML and CSS) will the OS truly matter To all you professions designers around: Do you employ a windows XP, Vista, Mac pc, and Lunix box against your desk to pay attention to OS compatibility Or does one just have what’s necessary to check the windows. Thanks, Ron indeed, it does issue. yes, I complete have multiple units. At home WHEN I run a MBP together with VMs of Ubuntu and XP. With all the current different variable regarding browsers and operating systems it’s futile to aim testing on almost all. Not only are there to test to get different browsers but also for different produces on each visitor… Not to mention each browser version for the different releases of each one operating system. Its good practice to check it on a common browsers but my advise could be to stick with good coding techniques and also let the user’s field interpret … Continue reading
