Website Review and Suggestions

**thehuskybear** · 08-31-2008, 11:12 PM

When I first quoted for this project, I had figured I would do this section in flash... well, after thinking about it, I decided I could accomplish this much easier using ajax since flash is not my strong point...

It wasn't easy at first, I had a few problems with the ajax side (**** IE was mess'n with me), but after deciding to use jQuery.. ever thing else came pretty easy.

Basically, this page is a way for my clients customers to design their own dancing dress. The target audience will be dance studios who will mo

I'd like to hear comment, suggestions, any errors you find, and what browser/os you are using. You are welcome to comment on the rest of the site as well. There are some things that aren't quite finished yet and the client will be entering the content later, so don't worry about grammatical errors.

So, here is the site:

Very neat design! You should feel other pages on your nav. bar (excluding home) with more stuff.

A great idea that seems to work very well.

I viewed in FF 3, Safari and IE 7 all running on XP Service pack 3. There was no detectable difference on any of the these combinations.

I ran the W3C validator and found 22 errors.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the review!

I haven't yet run the site threw validation since Im not quite finished.. the client has a few things she wants to add to the side and I still have to set up the payment gateway stuff... and do some SEO work. But I will for sure validate it as I do with all of my sites...

I haven't decided whether I will try to validate in XHTML strict or HTML 4 strict... any comments on that? I know there is a little debate about it.

Very clean and easy to use! I love it. First thing I check was to see if it was flash and I am very happy that it's not, very well done. I always try to get xhtml strict 1.0 and if that is too hard to pull xhtml transitional is the next best thing, good luck.
