Copy/paste it. I broke the autolink on purpose.

Nice work Pete :) Got a couple suggestions...

When Fx has a large(r) font size, the company details text disappears under the fading/transitioning images (and when the image fades you can see the text bleeding through). Maybe use min-height?

Those fading images... you don't need to deliver them all to the page... you could just deliver an array of image src details and loop through. Might save some bandwidth (if that is important).

Have a good weekend [smile]

Cheers,
Jeff

Make sure your web page and css validates properly against the doctype you have chosen - before you attempt to debug a problem!

Ahh, cheers Jeff.
Good idea about the image delivery. I'll look into that... and the text size issue you mentioned.

Thanks

I meant IE6, IE7 is OK.

In IE6, it looks like the "Tungum Facility" image and caption fell down on top of the "company brochure".

Looks good...I especially like the super subtle background fade.

What fade? That's just your monitor playing up ;-)

This was actually designed by a colleague. I just put the site together from his Visual.

Fixed the IE6 foible with a little hackaroo.

Very nice - you're missing the disclaimer and privacy pics on the disclaimer page.

Gah...

Does anyone know how to make Firefox show a 'red x' or similar for missing images? (ideally without resorting to greasemonkey etc).
