    Good code, bad position?

    Yes, I did wonder about that. In fact I had tried to move my menu further down on the previous build of the site, but I think I was getting my absolutes and relatives muddled up because they didn't position correctly. I'll attempt it again. Annoyingly I can only make minor changes at the...

    Wow. That's fantastic, Chris! I can't make big changes just yet (work pc in turkey, me currently in uk) but I'm saving this page. Thank you for your time. BTW - just been to your site. Very clean and quick to load. Like it.

    Firefox Layer Scrollbar and Width Issue

    Hi In Firefox I have an issue with hiding scroll bars and setting the width correctly on layers. In the following example you will see a top layer and the main page layer. The top layer should be 660 pixels wide and should display a horizontal scroll bar and no vertical one. The main page...

    Good code, bad position?

    Maybe it's choking on the fact that none of your pages appear to have an opening <html> tag" Could I get more embarrassed? I think it's one of those things where I've been looking at the code for so long I miss something as obvious as that! Two comments you made though Chris I'd like to...

    Good code, bad position?

    Hi I am concerned that my initial log files were showing individual sessions of 100+ a day that have now dropped to around 30 a day, and I've seen no movement in google when using key phrases. I believe my code is pretty strong, having coded it all from scratch (bar the JS and Flash), with...

    Firefox Slower Than IE???

    Hi I've checked the mozilla forum and indeed there are a few solutions in there. The best was to type 'about:config' in the address bar, scroll down to 'network.http.pipelining' and 'network.http.pipelining.maxrequests' and change these to 'true' and '8' respectively. Worked a treat. Thanks...

    Firefox Slower Than IE???

    Is it just me or does anyone else find Firefox noticebly slower to load web pages than IE? I'm new to Firefox (having made the switch the other week due to security issues with IE) so the load speed is quite obvious to me. Any thoughts?

    CSS Layer scroll bar colour not showing in Firefox

    *answers own post* It's not standard code and is IE-specific only, so as far as I can tell there is no code to color the scrollbars for Firefox.

    CSS Layer scroll bar colour not showing in Firefox

    Another problem with Firefox is my layer scroll bar that isn't displaying the correct base colour. This is also called from my CSS. It appears ok in IE.

    CSS not setting width correctly in Firefox

    Hi In my CSS I'm calling a layer that should be 660px wide, but in Firefox it's only appearing as wide as the letters that are contained within it. My CSS code for the layer is as follows, and you can see how it looks at www.followtheboat.com (it's the purple subheading box that appears under...

    Create own screen saver (.scr)

    hmmm, unfortunately the only builder there includes the images as seperate files, with the screensaver calling each one up seperately. I want to be able to include all the images in one file so the images cannot be 'stolen'.

    Create own screen saver (.scr)

    I'd like to create my own screen saver for people to dload off my site but do I need to pay for a screen saver software package? Isn't there a way of creating a simple photo slide show for free, or can anyone suggest a free screensaver package? Thanks!

    Index page dismissed in robots.txt - reason why Google ignores info?

    So they can ONLY enter the site via the index.asp page? And I'm ok with it being an asp page not htm? Thanks for the comments. I'm learning.....

    Index page dismissed in robots.txt - reason why Google ignores info?

    Hi If you do a search for followtheboat (the name of my new site) in google it appears but with no information. Is this because I have only just submitted the page? Also, I made my robots.txt AVOID my index page and instead go to the alternative home page which sits in a sub directory of the...

    Don't have complete control over &lt;h2&gt; with CSS

    I'm using CSS to control the features of my <h2> tag, but some of the default settings associated with <h2> are over-riding my CSS. It seems that CSS will not completely control the size of my headings because I'm still getting that big space underneath the heading. Can I not completely control...
