Re: [WSG] Web Design Test - IE Users

2007-09-21 Thread Joseph Taylor
Thanks for the feedback everyone, the items you mention (all caps on 
text, html errors on search form) are all out of my control.  This 
content is scraped from pages of a circa 1999 frames-based frontpage 
site (yuck!) I try to clean the html best I can with some php 
(preg_replace, str_replace, etc) but ultimately I have to step back in 
the hopes that the parent company's site will get a cleanup (never gonna 
happen).


Thanks again,

Joseph R. B. Taylor

Please let me know if there are any layout issues you encounter 
(float drops etc)


Some pages won't validate because I'm scraping the table-laden 
content from the parent company's awful, though I try to clean them 
up somewhat (sales and rental search).


I noticed a couple heading issues on my old win2k server, but it has 
an odd resolution and things look as horrible as they possibly could...


Thanks in advance!



Very nice Mr Taylor,

One section that needs some attention is the search form, there's 
about 15 errors that HTML Tidy caught that are producng some odd 
effects (s in the ?). Once you have that validated it 
should start to look more consistent cross-browser, let us know once 
you've done that. Also this little snippet will prevent the dropdown 
button from overlapping the text in the options on the dropdowns:


option { padding-right: 0.5em; }

Cheers,
Rob

Looks great Joe. I took a glance in IE6 and there dosent seem to be any
layout issues that I can see.

Hey everyone!

I wanted some of you windows users to test out this site if you'd be so 
kind on your IE browsers.

Some pages won't validate because I'm scraping the table-laden content

Joseph R. B. Taylor




IE6 and IE7 on Parallels/Mac

It looked fine to me and I saw no serious issues, Joseph. 800 resolution 
users might object to the h-scroll bar. The paragraphs of uppercase text 
are difficult to read. With font-scaling, the sub-page main headings 
stack too tight (easier to see at +3 in a compliant browser).


Best,

~dL
