Think of it this way.. 80% of what you learned is still 100% accurate code. The other 20% have just been migrated out to stylesheets, and still have similar syntax. Font size = 8, is now font-size:8px. Not a huge change.Bigun wrote:But it's also semi-disheartening to find out all the HTML code I learned 4 or so years ago is almost completely useless if not nearly nausiating to most modern coders.
In exchange for learning those 20% of changes, you gain cross-browser compatibility, better rendering on mobile and portable devices, and even solid support for accessibility tools.

Ok.. the site is chopped badly... but I'm getting an idea for what I would like.
First and foremost I'd like to center the links in the middle of the page.
Secondly, I'd like to take the back navbar (navbar.jpg) and span it accross the length of the page.
There is more, but I think I might be able to manage it on my own.
Forgive me if there are sloppy and/or useless CSS properties set, I learn by trial and error, but please... point them out.
*EDIT*
I got the navbar to go across the page by killing a <div> tag... still need help centering my navbar selections.

I felt as if I dove into the firey pits of Mordor and come back much more knowledgable.
That said I want you guys to take another look:

Ignore 1 thing please: The Font
My main concern now is to make this *not* look like poo in IE.
Help?

You aren't filtering user input:

Jeez, I only thought you had a need of filtering stuff in the POST method boxes...

*EDIT*
The *only* non-compliant part should be the proprietary mozilla menu properties (-moz... something)
Multiple errors, one not related to the moz-prop menu properties, and a dozen (easy to fix!) warnings.
The tabs at the top I think come down to the white line being too thin, or not antialiased, or something.. That and I don't really like the "buttons behind a bar", when the buttons are the same color. Thats a conceptual thing, and subjective to the max.
I'll try to up a screeny later tonight.
Oh... your using CSS 2 validation... mine is CSS 3 compliant:Roja wrote:http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/vali ... %2Ftest%2FBigun wrote:They shouldn't, may I see a screenie?Roja wrote:CSS still isnt compliant, and the tabs at the top look like Poo in Firefox.

In Opera 9 the tabs look like squares hanging from the upper window menu bar. In FF, there is this big black rectangle that sits over the color changing squares. In Opera, that big black rectangle is gone.Roja wrote:CSS still isnt compliant, and the tabs at the top look like Poo in Firefox.
And you are getting MySQL errors on this page (possibly others, but I haven't surfed the entire site yet):

And your footer link to return to the main menu in the bottom of this page is broken:
