i agree with Jonas, the background red i dont like, and the actual page background too.The menu text is too dark, the yellow border doesn't work..the whole site doesn't flowCant really add any improvements as its probably better to bulldoze it flat and start again.

depends what kinda poll your after.Do you need one that stores the results of anyone who takes it and displays a nice graph? If so, you need php.Or, do you need one that someone fills in, then based on what they answer, they get a result for themselves..in which case, you probably again need php, i doubt this can done by javascript alone.

it can also be done via ajaxhowever, it can be done by simple php includes. That way you dont have to edit each page when you change the menu or any other parts that repeat on every page.

thats entirely upto you and what you want the page to be about.in general, if its a bunch of links going to your own site, its called a site map. If its a bunch of links going to different website, its a link page.

didn't seem to work.i either get nothing at all, or the following errorWarning: opendir(http://www.surrealillusions.co.uk/galleries) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: not implemented in /galleries/index.php on line 134Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /galleries/index.php on line 138Warning: closedir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /galleries/index.php on line 165or something like that anyway.i've tried the script in various files, where i think it should go, but nothing worked.

So I cant have one class tag that modifies the color and text and another class tag that adds a mouseover effect? Would I just have to combine them?

you can use the same class or id on one <a> tag to create an effect on mouseovera.link1{text-decoration:none;color:#FF0000;}a.link1:hover{text-decoration:underline;color:#e6d400;that simple:)

yeah..make a jpg instead :)seriously though..as far as i know, there is no dash style attribute thingy for lists.

umm...quite simple really.<ul><li><a href="">some link</a></li><li><a href="">some link</a></li><li><a href="">some link</a></li><li><a href="">some link</a></li><li><a href="">some link</a></li><li><a href="">some link</a></li><li><a href="">some link</a></li><li><a href="">some link</a></li></uletc etcor just<a href="">some link</a><br /><a href="">some link</a><br /><a href="">some link</a><br /><a href="">some link</a><br /><a href="">some link</a><br />etc etctheres a number of ways to style it, but thats the basic 2 ways of making a list of links.

looks ok in firefox here using version 1.5:)

theres quite a few ways. some ways are more correct than others.first of all, the 'wrong' or not-upto-date way - using tables. so, avoid them.The way to do it is via divs and css. You can use either absolute positioning, or, if your site is centered, use the float attribute for divs to put one div to the left (the menu), and the other to the right (content).If your very new to divs and css (which i presume you are by posting this question), i suggest the absolute positioning first.have a look herehttp://www.yourhtmlsource.com/stylesheets/csslayout.html

dont use tables..especially for forms. Loads of un-needed code.thats the only thing so far, apart from the suggestion to add in the xmlns attribute thingy.

how come you posted this twice?

i tested it out, and it seemed to work for mehowever..google and search engines in general dont like the same title on several pages, they like different titles for different pages, it also tells the user (to some extent) whats on the page, especially if they click on a search result, as the title is the main text you see in a search engine result, and the bit you click on.

thanks alotmuch appreciatedI'll see how it works, and get back to you:)

yeah..like i said..just a few

quite a few members have been deleted. The member count changes on how many actual members there are, your member number cant change, that just goes up and up, no matter how many people are deleted. If the member number changes, it can probably cause the database to have a brown underwear moment and jump out the window.

no, not for the body width.you need to use percentages on any sections that you want to have a fluid movement such as a div.p, span, and other such tags cant have a width specified.if your having that much trouble understanding, go through the tutorials again on this site. To use percentages correctly and to their full extent, you need to use div's and css. That should help you on the way, and what to look at. Look on w3schools tutorial for divs and css.

i wouldn't use that form.1 - spam bots can get your email2 - it relies on people having an email client program installed.do an internet search or a forum search for a "php contact form". you need a server side language to process the email form contents, without your email address been avaliable for all to see.

I'd use tables to get a nicer layout. I guess that IE7 has problems with the positioning, but you can avoid this by using tables.<TABLE><TR> <TD><DIV class=left>left</DIV></TD> <TD><DIV class=center>center</DIV></TD> <TD><DIV class=right>right</DIV></TD></TR></TABLE>HAPPY 2007

tables? nicer layout?dont make me laugh :)div's, xhtml and css is the way forward in web design, tables aren't for the design of the page. CSS = more freedom!:)returning to amp34's questions - use percentages instead of pixels for the widths. just have a play around with it, see what happpens. And you should always link the pages to the stylesheet.....makes editing the style alot easier, rather than editing each style bit on every page..

like aquatsr says - use pixels for any text size, padding, margin etc..also, you use an xhtml doctype, but yet you use the font tag, center tag and tables...these 3 tags are depreciated and can be replaced with css and div's. Much easier to control and quicker to edit.the scrollbar css is not valid css, as its ie only. Again, like aquatsr says, Firefox conforms to CSS standards where as ie 6 and 7 both do not.for text colours, use hexi number thingymigigs..like #FF0000 for red and #0000FF for blue and #000000 for black, #FFFFFF for white, etc etc..that should help you on the way:)

just means theres no index file, and the way the server is setup, to list directories in that folder instead of displaying a 404 error.

you need the file extension adding onto the file name<img src="shark.jpeg"width="144" height="50" />or<img src="shark.jpg"width="144" height="50" />both are the same jpeg format.

if the problem occurs in ie5, then you shouldn't worry about..only people who have been in comas for several years, plus have their computers completely locked out of any updates and themselves out of touch of modern civilisation will still use ie5. most people use ie6 or ie7 if they use explorer, all the sensible people use firefox and/or opera

is it really necessary to write ALL them words that need to be unscrambled?It makes the page pointlessly long, plus it makes you look a bit of an idiot to be honest.Just need to ask what you want to do without making the page 45 light years long..

you have alot of '<br>'s in the page.

<br><br> <br><br> <br><br> <br><br> <br><br> <br><br> <br><br>

before the table in your results page.Have a look where they are generated from, and delete them :)also, your css on the results page

<style type="text/css"> table.display{margin-buttom:70%} </style>

you need to change it...firstly you spelt bottom wrong, you've missed the ';' off the end, and perhaps changing it to this:<style type="text/css">table.display{margin:auto;} </style>in your css in the code you posted above, you've missed then';' off the end afterthe percentangeyou have no opening <head> tags on either page. the meta tags and css should go inbeteen the <head> and </head> tags.
