Subject: RE: BS: New website From: Joe Offer Date: 15 Aug 15 - 09:29 PM What did you use to construct the site, Bert? Looks to me that you used raw HTML, like I do. It looks good, but everything is oriented toward the center, as you'd find in a Wordpress Website. Is there anything you can do to make it distinctive from the omnipresent Wordpress Websites? Mind you, I got fired from a Website because I didn't conform to Wordpress standards and didn't produce a Website that displayed perfectly on the Development Director's cellphone. The Development Director got a high school computer science class to design the Website in Wordpress, just after I'd spent two all-nighters to redesign our Website. I hate Development Directors... -Joe- |

Subject: RE: BS: New website From: GUEST,DaveRo Date: 16 Aug 15 - 01:07 AM Why would a psychic site need a tracking cookie? Seriously, it's fine. Perhaps put some gaps between the three pictures. (If you're writing the code that's best done by getting rid of the table and using DIVs with margins - see the Box Model. But it can be done with tables too.) |

Subject: RE: BS: New website From: Mr Red Date: 16 Aug 15 - 03:34 AM pretty straightforward. Personally I would mute the pattern a bit Anything that could distract you should be subtle, particularly when reading text in the midst of it. Right now my prescription glasses are lost and I am using off-the-shelf specs, so the effect shows up more. Not everyone has the correct prescription or admits they need glasses (or new ones). Your audience is composed of all sorts of eyes! The depth of colour is OK for white text. Gaps between pictures? One blank line small font, no more. My test for appearance on mobile phones is first to narrow down the PC browser window and that works fine when I try it. Not sure what DIV layers would add. If you gave them dimensions that would ruin the phone aspect. Don't use frames, Google are changing their attitude to them and with phones it might cause minor problems with them. There are lots of things you can do with JavaScript but apart from having to learn the blessed thing, you have to consider how you test it for phones. In my experience the JavaScript cannot be tested off-line on phones (Android certainly and if I reason correctly Apple do things differently (think awkward)). It has to be published and visited on-line. BTW if you want to create blickies for here -quickly - (hyperlinks - including open in new TAB/Window) have a look at Mr Red's HTML effects generator (it opens in new TAB/Window) and uses JavaScript. |

Subject: RE: BS: New website From: GUEST,Bert. Date: 16 Aug 15 - 04:22 AM Thanks, guys. Joe, yes it is plain html. I hate Wordpress. DaveRo LOL Why would a psychic site need a tracking cookie? Yes, I'm just building her a website. The content is hers. Thanks for your help. Mr. Red. The background is hers. It is a good point. I will mute it and see if she likes it. One of my main problems is that she doesn't have a computer and she can only view it over her phone. I'm going to have to update my phone. |

If you gave them dimensions that would ruin the phone aspect.DIVs are nothing to do with 'layers' and do not have to be absolutely-positioned. They are the recommended way of laying out visual content using css. Three DIVs one after the other would arrange themselves on just about any sized display. But for such a simple website, tables are fine. |

Subject: RE: BS: New website From: GUEST,DaveRo Date: 16 Aug 15 - 05:22 AM I meant you can use DIVs to make layers (overlapping content) but they're normally used just for arranging stuff on the page. |

Subject: RE: BS: New website From: Mr Red Date: 16 Aug 15 - 03:55 PM well hush ma mouth. I use DIVs for moving, positioning and hiding and popping up. Tables for the kind of layout we are talking about. If your "client" can only see on a phone that is not a bad thing. It tells her what she is getting at its most constricted. On my Folk Map there must be hundreds of DIVS as little red dots. All positioned from OS Grid References (think long/lat). Haven't hit a limit that I can find. I guess PCs will outstrip the size of my list by a big margin year on year. |
