IE lockout ...


DLSS

Recommended Posts

well i use the dreamweaver mainly for the visual side of things.

(integrating the things i done in ps and positioning it right....)

o and a update i changed it so that instead of getting a full block

ie users just get a alert box telling them :

you seem to be using internet explorer ,

note that this site wil not display correctly in your browser, we advise you use firefox.

when they click ok the page loads normally.

only problem with this is that they keep bouncing on it if they refresh the page ...

Hope you don't mind, i quickly reworked your design in XHTML/CSS.

its on a very slow server btw...

I'd have a look at doing your design in CSS as it works a lot better than tables, and the layout is kept seperate from the content (i like to use PHP includes as well). If you view source it should be fairly easy to nick anything you like. Used just notepad and photoshop.

Ohh and mad props to http://www.csscreator.com/version2/pagelayout.php

:shock: no i dont mind .....

i was actually going for a rough plexiglass look in it ...

but damn that's slick :o

that's awesome m8

i'll have dig in the code , :D

might use it.<3 ing it :D

thnx dude :D

*edit* sweet :shock: how simple u could keep it .

one problem i noted tho is that without using the frames it will auto reset the flash player, would it not ?

also i cant unlock the bg or layers .... :(

could u replace the blood with my original one ?

here's a psd i made with 2 puddles and a layer wich (u dont have to use but might wanna keep for doing future work) with the plexiglass effect. its black but when over top of another object it turns to glass... thats how i did the original plexiglass....

The problem with the flash player refreshing on different page loads is due to the architechture of the page. With frames, clicking on the link just reloads the content in the main content frame. This means that the flash player isn't refreshed at the same time. With my CSS based attempt, the entire page is reloaded when you click on a link, which as you've noticed means the music player will restart. I'm not sure how to fix this myself, without reintroducing frames again.

You could try playing around with some AJAX though, which would allow you to reload the bits of the page you need without messing with the flash music player. But thats something i'm not fully up to speed with.

Personally I'm not a fan of music on web pages though, usually because when I'm on the web I'm usually listening to music already. Tori Amos should never be mixed into metal!

With the PSD file, it should be 8 layers there, but i'm not sure how many CS2 only features there are in the file. Have you tried loading the CS2 demo and having a play with that? I tried opening yours up but all it brings down is a corrupt 1.3kb file.

Glad you like it though, i'm mainly a fan of CSS because its just so lightweight and simple. As well as the csscreator link, have a look at http://www.cssbasics.com/, this was probally the fastest way of learning i've found.

Also get the Web Developer Toolbar for Firefox, very useful: http://chrispederick.com/work/webdeveloper/

yup, it would do, my bad, Its set to a fixed minimum height:

from the css:

min-height:500px;

height:auto !important;

height:500px;

to fix, set it to:

height:500px;

overflow: auto;

And the background graphic is also set to as one image that size (500px by 510px)

What you would need to do is make a graphic that can be tiled, but you'd lose the gradiant that way. Its basically a case of using the header and footer, and a 10px slice repeated on the Y axis.

PHP only comes into it when you want to repeat something like a menu, or a copyright footer, across multiple pages. So you'd put the menu HTML into a txt file, and just use...

<? include("includes/menu.txt") ?>

...in place of your menu code in your page. That way you only have to change one file when you want to update the menu, not hunt threw every page.

Give me a buzz via PM if you need any more advice.
