|)3nn15 Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Hi everyone,I registered just a couple of minutes ago...looking forward to being part of this forum. I hope I've posted this to the right section - some forums are very strict on this sort of thing.Web-design is a hobby of mine, and recently I've become engrossed with creating Strict XHTML pages, i.e. all the design elements being done in CSS. Unfortunately browser display issues are a big problem using this method of design (well, for me, anyway!).I'm planning an overhaul of my personal website, and obviously I want to go for a Strict XHTML site. If anyone's got the time, can you please check this prototype page I've set up. I've tested it in IE6 and FireFox 1.0.x, and everything looks fine. However, I'm specifically interested if there are any flaws if the page is viewed in Opera or Safari.Here's the link: Prototype PageThanks in advance everyone,DennisP.S. If there is a flaw, a good description or screenshot would be much appreciated so I can fix the mistake. You can e-mail me at di_brrtt[at]yahoo[dot]com if you like.

Chocolate570 Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Welcome to the Forum!Very nicely set up. I tested it in FireFox 1.0.7, though. The sitemap link is not working, but since this is a prototype, i didn't expect it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|)3nn15 Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 Thanks!No, the sitemap's not working, neither are the other navigation links.Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlmostGod Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 That is a nice use of the static background. One of the only times i have seen it used well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aspnetguy Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Looks good...some msall nitpicky things that aren't quite consistent between IE and FF.The titles News and Quick Links have different top padding in different browsers.If you need help making htem the same in both IE and FF I can show you how.Good job though, here's to web standards! I wish more people would use them and pressure IE to be more compliant and then we wouldn't have these issues.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonas Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Yeah, looks good in Opera... Nice, simple design does it. Functionality is key. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boen_robot Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 How come you added a <script> tag at the bottom of the page? I thought this tag is not allowed in strict mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|)3nn15 Posted December 2, 2005 Author Share Posted December 2, 2005 (edited) Thanks a lot guys! I'm glad you like the design.@aspnetguyI would greatly appreciate it if you could show me. For some reason, sometimes it works OK, other times there are slight differences, as you noticed.I have never heard of the <script> tag not being allowed in Strict mode...let me go Googling for some more info.Cheers,DennisEdit:Looking at this page, it shows that the <script> tag is still allowed in XHTML Strict; however, the "language" attribute has been removed - the "type" attribute is used in its place.Result of fresh validation: "This page is valid XHTML Strict!" I'm busy downloading the official W3C specifications concerning XHTML now... Edited December 2, 2005 by |)3nn15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
