couple question with websites

i have seen some sites that use scripts to display text instead of actually on the page… would this make the page load faster or something? if so what would be better way of doing it…

im a novice at scripting but would love to learn…

also, i dont know if its appropriate to post this but i was thinking of making a video game review site and was wondering if there are any good ad sites that i can make some revenue to help cover paying server fees and so on

@bathurst_guyFeb 17.2008 — Do you have a link to such a website. It is faster and better to just display the text, especially if there is nothing you need to do with it. My rule of thumb is to not use JavaScript at all except for form validation and even then I also have server side form validation too. Don't rely on anyone having a specific browser or service turned on, it will only lead to trouble. After all, what's wrong with basic HTML and CSS?

@tobiaseichnerFeb 18.2008 — Do you mean the alternative text shown on some browsers before images are loaded ?

Well, it is always good to set "alt" at an image tag, especially text-only browsers (like used by blind Internet users) require them to allow reading the "image contents".

But maybe you refer to something completely different ;-)

Regarding your video game review site, Google's AdWords or the Yahoo Publisher Network are always a good choice. Other search engines may offer similar solutions.

@gd6noobauthorFeb 18.2008 — no tobiaseichner, not that..

say i want to do a review of a game, instead of writting it on the page, i would do it via script or something..

ive seen this from the Microsoft site coz i was curious with their css... but its not in the css... its somwhere eles and i cant see it only when i load up the page in IE or FF

@tobiaseichnerFeb 18.2008 — Not sure... can you provide me with a link to a similar site ?

Do you mean something like a content management system where you can update your site without diving into HTML programming ?

Tobias.
