do that with a dynamic database approach you change the file once and that's
it.

Hi Marvin,
Wow a flash back to web design circa 1997.
Well it does pass XHTML transitional, so plus there.
In terms of css errors well you really shouldn't be placing styling

Have you ever developed -- or even used -- an application built in
Flex, or OpenLaszlo? Perfectly simple to do any of the above, with
the advantage of easy integration with video and other rich content.

Hello,
The title attribute is especially useful if you need to explain the
content of a page to your visitor and your link text is not so
meaningful. I would advise that you attempt to use meaningful text in
your links. It might be a good idea to change the structure of your
sentence so that m
Hi Jens
Actually, using the 'title' attribute in a link does NOT add a little
bit of SEO. Title element ('Page Title') - yes for SEO - but title
attribute - no.
Try it yourself. Put a few words in a title attribute - words which
don't otherwise appear on your page. The once Google has re-indexed

Having worked as both a teacher in higher ed, and in a support role
for teachers in higher ed, I have to agree 100% with Andrew.
Flash is the devil you know. Teachers use it so they don't have to
learn something new. It amazes me how many people still get away with
making flash sites, and burning

Let me see if I am understanding correctly. The Title attribute is not needed
any more. As long as links are in simple language and their is a description of
a photo and/or graphic on the side or top and bottom.

Hi,
I'm using XSLT2 and having a problem with the doc-available function.
I have an href attribute (@href) whose value is 'wiki.xml'
resolve-uri(@href,'file:/c:/clipsworkingdir/rss/temp/') returns
file:/c:/clipsworkingdir/rss/temp/wiki.xml (this file exists and is
valid XML).

External link icon: I'd lose the globe, also because it's jaggy. You

Hi Danny,
Nice site.
Small usability suggestion: Have your 'back to the top' links on the
right hand side of the page, so that when the page scrolls down you
don't need to move yor mouse too much to reach the link.

Hi All,
I was wondering if any of you get a spare minute, could you cast your
professional eyes over a site I just put online. Its only a small online
resume type site. But I'd be interested to see if anyone could find any
issues with it or had any suggestions for items that I may have missed. I

Henrik,
Thank you for your feed back. I am working on those now. =)
The little globe is used to indicate links to external sites. Perhaps
another icon would indicate this better?
What would you suggest for the link colors. I prefer colors that make the
