It's the usage of the Accessibility icons as described on http://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG1AAA-Conformance I'm trying to figure out. It looks like I'm fine according to webexact, but I wondered if there was a definitive program/site like the w3c html validator at http://validator.w3.org/ that I...

Regarding the conformance to web content accessibility guidelines 1.0 on the w3c site I've used the online validator webxact watchfire to go through my site to check for validity and it says that my site is fine. I've gone through the list of things I had to check manually it said and they're...

It *is* just the strict doctype that won't allow it I decided not to use javascript when I found that method as I aren't really a fan of JS anyway and most browsers go nuts about active content if you include it. I've got a load of photographs which, in my old site, I popped up in their own...

Been developing a website and being using a subdirectory of my mainsite to develop it online. I've just uploaded V1 of the code for approval to the customer site. There are no cookies in the site at all Everything works fine if you "accept all cookies" on both sites, but if the privacy...

Lovely I'll go through and try and get rid of the rest of the margins thanks

When the pages of my site are viewed in Firefox, the text wraps in the correct place, bout 1/4 of an inch to the left of the edge of the window, but in IE the wrap is about an inch to the right of the window. The layout is done using CSS and I think i've narrowed it down to teh "content" div...

The best anti scumware package I've found is spysweeper. It's about £30 and worth every penny. Saved my sanity opn a number of occasions :-) I put it on my mates machine and found 13500 traces 4 weeks after an re-install, he was wondering why it was acting up

I've changed one of the menu elements and it looks like I accidentally changed the <LI> when I changed all the other fonts over to ems :-( DOH On a whim I tried not using <LI>s to define where the buttons sit and it looks and acts fine, so I'll leave it now that it works thanks for the help guys

No, I've got nothing on the hover, yet ;-) it's just when you alter the size of the text. Nothing else on the page moves Me site is http://www.gallowtech.co.uk Don't laugh at the site too much it's only there for me to play around with code and colour combinations which isn't easy when...
