First of all, this is the site we'll be talking about http://wise-designs.com

1) W3C HTML validation I already took care of Gave me some headheachs... but now the site I have in my PC (didn't upload it yet) is valid!

2) W3C CSS validation I don't get it ... I have a valid css file but I get many warning regarding font family ... no clue about that

3) The site is taking too long to load. I know I have a site that relies heavily on graphics but I would appreciate any suggestions about decreasing loading time!

4) I got banned from Google Adsense (invalid clicks they say)... tried to open a new account under my brother's name but no response from they so far... so I would like any suggestion about an add and search partner to maximize my site income.

5) On the main content window I use a table 1x1 with 97/98% width to instert all I want inside it... but sometimes content seems to go out of it and appear above the images on the left (image of the box) and on the right (image of advertising box)

6) I've already tried some "add to bookmark" and "make this site your homepage" but IE blocks many of them and on firefox some don't work ... any good ones you guys use?

7) Any mailling list manager and tellafriend scripts you guys use and suggest me them would also be appreciated.

8) On http://www.wise-designs.com/uploader.htm I have an iframe pointing to http://www.wise-designs.com/uploader/ but it gets weird to have all that blank space bellow when the htm that loads in the iframe as not a big height ... is any code available to make an iframe has the same height that the page that opens in it?


Sorry for my spelling ... but as you might already noticed i'm not an english native.
I would really really appreciate any suggestions, comments, criticism, anything regarding my site cause till now I spent many hours making it and it's not perfect yet! Too many bug still in it!

Thanks in advance

1. no problem there

2. Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif ; Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif ; Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif ... try these and see if you still get the warnings.

3. redo the graphics so that they are smaller, looking at their quality you can still take some space in exchange for a little quality... where you have the same graphic ... can't you make it smaller in dimendion, use it as background and repeat it so that it fills the area? get what i'm saying?

this is all i can say and as you see it sure isn't much i'm sorry nobody answered your thread, maybe someone will know all the answers and give you a hand ...


c ya

It's most likely giving you the warnings because you only have one font listed.....its "good" practice to have the font you want and then a generaic fall back. This is so that if that particular font is not found it reverts to your other specified font instead of say Times New Roman, which had been dubbed "The Devil" for use on websites.....

if I had more time I would try and answer more of the questions....good luck

Penaf,

Here is a couple of scripts for you to try:

------------------------------------------------------
For a bookmark script I use this:

Stick this in the head section of your document between the <head></head> tags:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function bookmark(url, description)
{
netscape="Netscape and Mozilla user's hit CTRL+D to add a bookmark to this site."
if (navigator.appName=='Microsoft Internet Explorer')
{
window.external.AddFavorite(url, description);
}
else if (navigator.appName=='Netscape')
{
alert(netscape);
}
}
//-->
</script>

Stick this in the body section where your link will be in the <body> tags:

<a href="javascript:bookmark('http://www.oasisfire.com','Oasis Outdoor Furniture');">Bookmark This Website</a>

Works fine in IE, Mozilla, and Netscape, but no go in Opera or Safari (just so you know).

----------------------------------------------------------------------

For the Tell a Friend link use something like this (obviously change the subject and link):

<a href="mailto:?subject=oasis outdoor furniture&body=http://www.oasisfire.com">Tell A Friend About Us</a>

Clicking on this will open up the users default email client and add the link and subject line.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

For the set as homepage link you can try this:

<a href="#" onclick="this.style.behavior = 'url(#default#homepage)'; this.setHomePage('http://www.oasisfire.com');">Set As Homepage</a>

All of these will probably be blocked when you preview them in IE 6 with SP2, but should work fine when you upload the pages to the server.

Hope that helps,

Keep learning,

Kaiman
