This may not fix the problem, but you've got a lot of characters missing the ; - e.g. should be ;

Your URL doesn't work.

Are you now or have you ever been a professional web designer or work/ed in any other web development related field?

Why not get started? No-one who actually knows anything about these things is gonna take your opinion seriously anyway.

That's right. And just because a page doesn't work doesn't mean it's the browser's fault. You can't base your assertion on the fact that a few sites you've visited don't work properly. It's more than likely due to developer error.

Microsoft have a very poor record when it comes to releasing patches to fix faults in their software - soon doesn't ever come into it.

Where are you getting this from? Both IE6 & FF support DOM Level 1.

Firefox is more secure cos it's inferior? Firefox doesn't understand JS calls? And IE is more powerful?

I'm not aware of a way to do it without using spans. All the CSS-driven forms I've seen have done it that way. If you want to see a souped-up CSS tableless form, check out this.

Doesn't that create twice as much work for you when you could really just get it to work right in both? When designing websites, especially when using CSS, it's a good idea to get your site looking right in Firefox (which adheres more closely to the standards thatn IE) and then use various techniques/hacks to get it working right in IE. There are certain CSS selectors you can use to target certain rules at IE which other modern browsers ignore.

So you're disagreeing with me while at the same time reiterating my point.......riiiiiiiight.

There's also a plug-in you can get for Photoshop which lets you save your own .ico files. Notice from BuffaloHELP: 12-8-2006 Closing this topic due to continuation of this topic http://forums.xisto.com/topic/43673-favicon-icon-for-website-bookmark/

Yes and in that case, there's even less point comparing PHP & HTML cos then they're doing entirely different things.

You're gonna bar Opera users from your site just cos a javascript counter doesn't work properly?

I think everyone's missing the point that the end result of PHP is that it actually outputs HTML to the web browser, the same with nearly all scripting languages designed for web delivery. So, in other words, you can't have PHP without HTML (well you could, but the user wouldn't see anything).

Which is what I just said. It should be pointed out, however, that using $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] is not a reliable method when running PHP on IIS.

You've gone one step further there Lozbo in that you're talking about list menus with dropdown list menus. Of course you can create a list menu without it having an attached dropdown. As for the javascript for IE thing, there is an alternative: whatever:hover which does for :hover in IE what all other modern browsers do by default.

On Apache servers you can append your path to $_SERVER['docroot'] which equals public_html/folder1/file1 etc for whatever box you're hosted on.

I'm missing out on women in underwear? Maybe I should uninstall Adblock.

If you want a good site with tutorials on how to create horizontal and vertical menus using lists, check out Listamatic.

Filenames definitely are taken into consideration by search engine spiders. That's why a lot of sites use mod rewrite to change database entries into more meaningful file names.

The ampersands shouldn't have any effect on the rest of your layout.

Seems like you've got a bit of a case of divitis going on there (too many divs). Also, it's usually recommended that you use style names that describe the nature of the content (not the appearance cos you might want that to change at some point), rather than non-descriptive terms like style13, style22.

The only way you'll be able to target different background images for each <li> will be to give each an ID. The question you need to ask yourself though is: are the images just decoration or are they actual content? If they're decoration and don't actually say anything about the content of the page, use background images, but if they're a graphic representation of places that you can go, I'd recommend putting them in your HTML as images, because they are content.

No, I think it's you who's misunderstood. If the validator finds errors, they're errors, not compliance issues. Just cos your site might display how you think it should doesn't mean that your code doesn't have errors, especially if you're using a loose doctype (or even if you have one at all).
