HTML - What Is The Viewport And How Does It Relate To Site Testing?
I have the Firefox "Web Developer" extension which allows me to re-size the browser window to view the screen in a resolution like 800x600. It also has a check box named "Viewport", allowing me to re-size to that if I wish.
Is the viewport what I should be looking at my site in...and what is it? Also, how do other designers test their site in different resolutions? What's the most practical way? Similar TutorialsHi: I have a 600-row table which to now is presented to the user with always the first row displaying. Problem: How do I specify that I want a different and specific row of the table to be displayed at the top of the viewport ? Thank you, -Mel Smith Whenever I want to test a website in Firefox, or Safari, I open up a new window and look at it. But whenever I want to test a different version of IE, I need to upgrade (to IE7) or uninstall (to IE6). It's not difficult, just a waste of time. And it makes it difficult to compare the two side-by-side. Is there a better way to test the various IE versions? Hi All, I have tested my site in IE7, firefox and safari, but i've been told i have a problem with IE6. (Which i can't test without uninstalling IE7) www.lahayna.co.uk I'm told the problem is only with the homepage, and with the media page, I've been given a screenshot which i've attached, but i don't know where to go from here. I've tried checking my CSS to ensure my images, padding and margins don't exceed set widths etc, but i've not made any difference so far. Your help is really appreciated, as i'm not getting any further with this site. Thanks Laura Hello. Im a newbe with respect to webdesign, however for my thesis i need to conduct a large sample psychometric test. Viewers will rank a series of images (5 to a page) in order of preference. Once they have ranged those 5 images the webpage needs to go onto the next set of images. I need to gain results on the rankings that people put these images into. Making a webswite to display the images and radio buttons is pretty simple and i can do that easily its the result gathering process that i dont have time to code. Sample size is approximatly 2500 and to be representative id prefer an online one rather than taking that many results myself. In terms of images, there will be 25 image experiments. With each experiment made up of 5 versions of the same image that differ slightly in exposure.; Any help would be much appreciated. Planning to use Matlab to analyse the results. Cheers. Ed So I am pretty new to HTML/CSS (been learning for about a week now) I thought I had everythign down, but I ran into a problem with <a> and linking through my site. My directory is set up like this on my local network: when I link from loung.html to elixir.html I used the following code: Code: <a href="beverages/elixir.html">elixirs</a> But when I test those pages on my local network, the pages do not appear(when i click the link that I made). Is it because I am testing on local network, is the code wrong, or am I doing something else that I am not aware of? Thanks in advance I am wondering if it is possible to create an INDEX.HTML to redirect to another website? I would like it to display the redirected site, but if possible keep to the original address.. e.g. A site named www.mysite.com, with an INDEX.HTML to redirect to www.othersite.com, which displays OTHERSITE with www.mysite.com in the address bar. Hope I explained ok, any responce would be much appricated! Thanks! Hello, well, this is my firste idea of a site , it is in production with me adding some final touches http://www.wallofskate.bravehost.com/home/home.html one thing i would like to know is HOW CAN I MAKE THE SITE LOAD FASTER, and also be able to make it ONE WHOLE PAGE instead of it being divided, but the INTERACTIVITY HAS to stay right now the whole site is divided into 200 or so .gif images that were exported from adobe fireworks cs3. which were then hyperlinked together in microsoft expression web. Some tips would be much appreciated Your thought would be much appreciated Hello there. I am new to this forum. I used to be big into HTML, etc, got busy for a couple years you can say, and well, now I am back and lost in some ways! With that said, I hope someone here can assist me for what I am after. I am making a site for a photographer friend of mine. Here is it so far ... not yet done ... http://starverse.ca/sam/index2.html I want to make it so when you say update the photo area EX: http://starverse.ca/sam/center.html it will ONLY update that and I won't have to do anything to all the other items on the left/rights sites. I guess like a site within a site. I have been reading about using codes, such as : <!--#include virtual="path to file/include-file.html" --> <div id="nav"> <a href="...">...</a> ... </div> <? require("/path/to/file.html"); ?> etc. Nothing seems to work on my site. What in the wide world of sports am I doing wrong??? Howdie! I created my first homepage - real easy. What are the next steps? I cant understand why people make such a big deal about it. I found it easy. Here it is http://supanerd.blog.homepagenow.com/ Now I want to do one of those great moving cursors with my name rotating around. How can I fix this up? Can any of you guys give me some tips on how to integrate it. Appreciate your help! Hi all, this is my first post. First of all, my website is http://explosions.us.to Right now, whenever you click on something from the "nav" the links stay in the same place like they should. However, I want this to be the new 'about' page. Notice how the "nav" images change because of the added content in the layout cell. Any help on how to fix this is appreciated! the site http://www.googtwo.tk (my site) is attempting to put a garfield comic for the day by an iframe. if you look at the code, you'll see some irrelavent code, ignore it. but the iframe, isn't goign to the size i want it to, and therefore you can't see the comic. ??? This is my website that I am making...only the home page is ready as of right now....I have reached a point to which I am stuck! I really like the way that it looks but I am not sure how to improve it...the banner seems sort of plain to me....From the red at the top to the red at the bottom, I pretty much like the way that it looks....Would someone please take a look at it and give me some suggestions? Here is the link: http://crazyforclay.webng.com/index.htm BTW....This is my first website, I know its not great! Hi, Please help. I'm new to web design and have kinda cobbled my site together from various templates, etc. Problem is my site appears in Firefox, but comes up blank in IE and Safari.
