For example your title image (images/logolayer2.png) is always 401 pixels from the left of the browser window, while the blue background behind it (images/top.jpg) doesn't have an absolute position specified. You can add an absolute position for images/top.jpg in style.css, or have it placed inside the same div as images/logolayer2.png . I'm not an expert with HTML, so I found the easiest way to check positioning was to load your site, then play around with the width of my browser window, and see which elements move around. This is why it's good to work with a huge monitor - just shrink the browser window size, and you've tested for a smaller resolution
Bad Wolf Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 I agree with TomasM. Furthermore, you may consider to give a size to the elements in the page using percents instead of pixels.
Wizard Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 Don't give him a fish, he'll just starve tomorrow. Go grab a book on CSS. Or learn all the CSS syntax at w3schools.com and then go to properly formatted, professional websites and look for the patterns of styling they use until you understand what you're doing wrong.
gizmo Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 Have you done the browser compatibility test??? If not, it is always wise to test in different browsers before going public.
