Anyway, I was asked by a couple of friends of mine to 'do something' with their website.
I'm interested in comments/opinions from those who deal with this stuff on a day to day basis or even just from a users perspective.
One note, the textual and media content have nothing to do with me it is purely the design/structure that I'm interested in.
And just to stop anybody potentially wasting their time detailing any oddities that I already know about, here is what I've noted from testing thus far....
Code: Select all
Firefox v1.01 (Windows)
All good renders as intended
Firefox v1.5 (Windows)
All good renders as intended
Internet Explorer v5.00 (Windows)
The 'read more' bubble icon appears behind the 'read more' link text
Quotes have no top margin when shown within a snippet box, or probably more
acurately, snippet boxes have no top padding when they contain a quote
Internet Explorer v6.0.2900 (Windows)
All good renders as intended
Mozilla v1.7.3 (Windows)
All good renders as intended
Opera v8.5 build 7700 (Windows)
All good renders as intended
Inernet Explorer v5.2.3 (Mac OS X)
Snippet boxes (which should appear on the left) appear after primary content
although they are on the left they are not rendered where they should be.
Form field labels do not align with there associated input boxes.
Small rendering issue with form textarea, results in a gery line down the
right hand side of the text area input
colors do not blend as well as intended/expected
essentially, site is usable and readable but is not laid out as intended
Opera v8.51 build 2182 (Mac OS X)
All good renders as intended
Safari v2.0.2 (416.13)
Layout is rendered as intended
Color blends are not as smooth as intended/expected
Firefox v1.5 (Mac OS X)
Layout is rendered as intended
Color blends are not as smooth as intended/expected
Begining to think these color issues observed on Mac OS X may be a result of
the monitor in use and not a browser problem, yet to be confirmed though.
