Your code was a bit difficult to download and follow, due to your use of
frames. You might consider using a no-frames construct using CSS only, to
obtain the same effect. Not only would it be in line with current thinking, it
would make it more accessible to search engines. an example of a frame
conversion can be found at: www.thatsentertainmentproductions.co.uk and the
style sheet is at:
www.thatsentertainmentproductions.co.uk/scripts/stylesheet.css
What I've found so far is as follows:
I notice that in: http://arithmetic.890m.com you use the line: h3
align=center font color=black..
where you would be far better defining the style for h3 in your stylesheet,
either in a global definition for h3 or in a div h3
e.g.
(CSS)
.thisclassforh3 h3 {
color:black;
text-align:center;
}
(HTML)
div class=thisclassforh3h3Some stuff here/div
Current thinking removes styling and positioning from HTML and puts it where it
belongs- in CSS. This of course won't cure your clock problem. :-)
In http://arithmetic.890m.com you have not closed the line: frame
class=buttons src=ButtonsPage.htm name=buttons id=buttons/ properly.
For XHTML 1.0 Transitional, there should be a space before the last / e.g.
frame class=buttons src=ButtonsPage.htm name=buttons id=buttons /
although this is probably not enough to 'stop the clock'. :-)
Your clock problem is probably due to a lack of interaction between JavaScript
and CSS, so fortunately it's on topic for this forum. :-)
In ButtonsPage.htm you have a chunk starting:
body onload=Timer(z,position)
div class=clockface .
but you have not defined the class .clockface in your stylesheet. This is
possibly what the JavaScript doesn't like. Why Opera performs, I don't know.
Perhaps it's just slightly more tolerant of missing classes?

Subject: [css-d] problems with css/javascript
I'm new to web page design; my clock doesn't work in firefox/safari but does
in IE7 and Opera. I know it's probably a typo error but why then does it work
in Opera.
