@spufiApr 02.2004 — Stop using Front Page because it likes to insert IE only code, and if you don't know what you are doing, it creates crap in a hurry. Is there actually that much white space in your code? That's the most white space I have ever seen and it forced loading of the view source to take a long time. I did a file Save As on the source code and opened the code in my text editor. I got 22,331 lines of code. 22,331! Click on the Doctype link in my sig and read the article. Pick a Doctype and begin to try and validate your site. Validator link is also in my sig. Firefox likes valid pages. After that, go to w3schools and start to learn CSS asap. You will also want to stop using tables for your layout. [URL=http://www.matts-website.net/sandbox/index2.html]Here's[/URL] just a basic layout I did for a previous poster. This should give you an idea of what you need to work towards.

@spufiApr 02.2004 — And quit using JavaScript for the sake of using JavaScript. The following code does what?

<script language="JavaScript1.1">

<!--

jsVer = "1.1";

//-->

</script>

<script language="JavaScript1.2">

<!--

jsVer = "1.2";

//-->

</script>

<script language="JavaScript1.3">

<!-- Begin

jsver = "1.3";

//-->

</script>

@SamApr 02.2004 — its not CSS alone, use XHTML to create a semantic layout, then css to lay it out.

@AJBurnett34authorApr 03.2004 — Can anyone tell me what this means in the page that matt gave me

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

<link rel="stylesheet" title="Default" media="screen" href="default.css" type="text/css" />[/quote]

thanks

@spufiApr 03.2004 — <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

Is required for validation as it determines type of content you are sending and the charset.

<link rel="stylesheet" title="Default" media="screen" href="default.css" type="text/css" />

This links to my external style sheet where my CSS for the layout is defined. I'm basically saying it's my default style for a media type of screen, where the CSS file can be located at, and what type of content can be found within that file.

As you start to learn CSS, you will quickly see that defining your CSS externally is by far the ideal way of doing it.

CSS can do more than that. Again, go to W3schols and do the toturials on CSS. You don't need a table to define your links. A bunch of links are really a list of links. Because of this, you define them in a list tag(ordered/unordered). Check out the Taming Lists article in my sig.

Success!
