HTML - Best Approach?
Hi all,
I'm putting together a site and I'm not sure that I've approached the construction in the best approach. Here's the page: http://www.firstspace.co.uk/clients/harriet It is rough as I've not had time yet to iron out the kinks but you get the idea of the look and layout. The page will expand as text amounts vary. I'm worried about the table 'breaking' in some browsers (as it is at the moment in everything apart from Safari) so it needs a little flexibility. Any crit welcome Steve Similar TutorialsI'm going to create thumbails with captions below them and I'm wondering what is the best way to do this? Using headings as captions, seperate divs for each image? I'm in charge of doing the coding for a site that's been designed by a graphic designer with no knowledge of code. I like his designs, and the client wants me to make the site look exactly like them. They're .psd files representing each page. He sent me almost all of the images, but not the background and not certain key decorations (the guitar pics). I told him I needed the background, but his hard drive died (without being backed up) before he could send it to me. He doesn't seem to remember what font he used either. In light of all that, and the fact that the client wanted to get a basic version of the site up asap, I just converted the PSD's to JPEG's, uploaded them as whole pages, and used div's and image maps to add links and additional content. But that is obviously not a long-term solution. In fact, it's causing browser compatibility issues right now. And it's not accessible . . . etc. So I need to replicate these page design images using HTML or XHTML, and CSS. I can probably find a similar background and font to work with, but I just don't know where to begin. I haven't worked with CSS in years, but it looks like I'd probably need to use it. I'm not asking anyone to do my job for me. I'm just wondering how you would approach this task. Does anyone have time to look at the images and point me in the right direction? Here's the embarrassingly incomplete site: http://www.musicisrevolution.com The navigation works with Safari and Firefox. I'm also attaching one of the images so that it'll be clear what I'm talking about. Hey, all. New user here, but you looked like the friendliest bunch of people discussing web dev. Here's a simple question (I hope): I want to query the Navy's public site for moon cycle/period information from within my own code. There's a page (here) that provides a form to get what I want per day per location. But when I pull out the form info from that page source and place it in my own page, the form doesn't work. Is this a workable approach? An alternative would be to use another form on the same site (here) that results in a table of info for a whole year's worth of data. I could go either way as parsing either table is pretty straightforward for me. Since the forms are similar, it seems like getting on of those forms to work at all is the crucial issue, or is there another way to query data on the net like that? Thanks in advance, Burt |
