you're using Verdana as the font, since you shouldn't assume that all computers will have that font you should also specify a more general font:

Code: Select all

.text { font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; }
In my linux computer all of the fonts have serifs, not even close to verdana.

Fix the validation errors in html, and then fix the validation errors in css.

http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/vali ... ators.com/

Less clutter, less repetition (see my previous post), remove the flash (not needed), use css for layout instead of tables.

You've gotten a bunch of suggestions already. :)

I was only really curious because the company I now work for has done a number of sites for local council and accessibility was a big concern. They of course did the work properly and it meet the CSS standards.

So yes as off 2004 information that is only available on the web must meet the new requirements.

But I must agree that the comment by onion2k was harsh as no real explanation was given for his reasons.
Thanks!!

If I do hvae to Critique I'd say, do a spelling / grammar check on your text because I see some poor english in there (it's not terrible but these things make an impression on potential clients). I'd particularly lose that flashing yellow text in the header too (it's written wrong; "in" should be "at", but it's also a bit distracting and doesn't look great).

Hope that helps some :wink:

Thanks!!
