Re: For DavidF: a follow up om Glamorgan Book-keeping and colour.

Thanks for the advice. I will follow it up. I think Mike may have been
trying to view my site when I was uploading to it!

I am intrigued by that someone got the file listing! I use my ISP's "free"
webspace

I think you would benefit from taking a step back, and redefining your
websites goals.

Maureen, another poster, suggested this article that might help: "Your
complete guide to web design":
http://www.webdesignfromscratch.com/

I found it easy to understand and helpful. I think it would be well worth
the time to at least scan the different subjects. It will save you a lot
of time and frustration in the future.

You apparently have fixed it since Mike looked at it, and it loaded in
IE6 and FF ok.

The reason that the images look different is that Publisher 2003 makes
copies of any inserted image, in various formats, etc. with the goal of
serving up the best image depending upon the browser viewing the
page....with mixed results. That is why you are getting two different
images. The only workaround is to import the images into the page rather
than insert them. In this case I actually like the blue version and don't
see it being a big issue.

I would also volunteer an opinion. There are reasons for long pages, and
using anchor links, but in this case I think you have butchered your site
by putting all the content on one page. Go back to individual pages...and
as has been suggested before, forget about trying to save a dollar by
using a free, framing webhost. You are a business person...think about
it...is it worth saying $5 a month? Would you hire you after looking at
this website? Just my 2 cents worth...

Hi Daivd,

You have been helping me with www.glamorganbook-keeping.co.uk .

I redesigned the site putting the five pages on to the first page, using
its length. I then created a text box on each section of the page, with
hyperlinks to bookmarks on each section. This works faster than separate
pages and it works in both IE7 and FF2. I don't yet know about IE6.

You mentioned that you are interested in any issues with colour and
pics.

I have used two colour jpegs in "Services" and "Contact us" and
recoloured them to grey with 85% contrast. They appear correctly in FF2
but in IE7 they are coloured blue.

Thanks,

Matt
