[wdvltalk] Fw: Windows Installer

2007-09-11 Thread joseph harris
Since I last installed a program a few days ago Windows Installer 
has stopped doing its job - the message is that it is either 
corrupted or missing or that Xp is in safe mode.   Windows 
unhelpful Help has instructions for using the Command Prompt, 
which I do not like using...


I have restarted twice - Xp is not in safe mode.

I cannot find the appropriate action to take on the Dell discs.

Has anyone any advice, suitable to my rather nervous feel about 
tinkering too much?

Sounds like Windows Installer has gone belly-up because some other 
program has tinkered with it.


Try installing a whole new Windows Installer package:

Dunno, but I could send you a Linux CD if that helps ;)

Other than that, Ross's suggestion to re-install Windows Installer 
sounds like a good idea.

[wdvltalk] Site Check Please

2007-09-11 Thread Reg
We've finally taken the plunge and attempted to create fully CSS page 
layout templates for our website.  We have over 8,000 pages to 
convert to the new template, too.  So, we are asking for help finding 
potential problems before we get too far into the 
process.  Unfortunately, we do not have access to Macs, Linux, etc., 
for testing -- only Windows.  We've placed each of the template pages here:


http://www.dc.state.fl.us/wDCcssSample/

We would greatly appreciate your thoughts, opinions, and feedback.

Thanks in advance :)

The three-column one places two small columns vertically on the 
left  (FF2.0.0.6 XP).

Didn't complete email: three column seems to render correctly, but 
strikes me as an odd concept.  'Two column small right' displays 
small column on left.  Again FF2.0.0.6 XP.

The large table looks very subdued.  I would have used black text, 
and I think it might still work on the background colors.

Thanks David!  We appreciate your comments. I see what you mean about 
the three-column design.  We've decided to convert all of the 
existing 3-column layout pages to 2-column pages with the old 
right/left columns stacked on the left.  A classic case of what made 
perfect sense to us not being obvious to anyone but us.  Sorry for 
the confusion.

2007-09-11 Thread PBC Web Design
Looks like it's working here.  I don't know that 
I'd give copyright to Google, though g


Here are two places you can go to check your work in all the browsers:

http://browsershots.org/

http://www.browsercam.com/

The first one I believe is free, the second one 
may have a trial and is costly for a one-on-one 
account but they take groups and you divvy up the 
annual cost.  I've not used Browser Shots but 
from what I hear it's very good.  I may dump my 
BrowserCam for BrowserShots because BS is 
free.  But BC has more browsers you can view in 
and from what I can tell more features like screen res etc ...

Thanks Ross.Took a while, but done and successful.

David, thanks for the offer, but I have a number of Linux progs 
waithing for me to get round to reorganising the HDD to make 
room.[I have only 80G]   This also means deleting unused 
progs which means going through and trying to remember why most 
are there!
