Me again.

I've spent the day working on websites. I got a good start on the family reunion website. Over the last couple days I've pretty much gotten the new site, that I've been working on, done. I need to get some profile information from some people, polish a couple of the pages, and make sure everything works. My brother is even dusting off a web program for me. I hope to have the new site up when the we get our new server.

I'm looking forward to getting our new server space. This web site is a mess to me. I looks just the way I want it to in Firefox at 1024 x 768 resultion, but in IE it looks a little differnet. I see the imperfections, but they are probably not noticable unless you look for them. If you have a widescreen resolution, the site looks horrible in my eyes. This afternoon I did some testing around with Dreamweaver.

I made of replication of the home page in Dreamweaver, without using CSS. When i first started building this version of the website, I ran into problems using tables in IE. The site looked just fine in Firefox, but IE rendered it wierd. I can't remember what it did exactly, but Internet Explorer took the colspan first instead of the width, of a table cell. Something along those lines. It blew the site completely out of preportion.

That's why I switched to CSS. This type of site doesn't require CSS. In my opinion, tables are better for this type of site. There are definitely times when CSS is better, but not this site.

So i replicated without CSS in Dreamweaver, and checked out the code for it. I saw my mistakes plainly from before. So I'm going to do some code cleaning. Also with the server space change, I'll be able to clean up, and getting rid of files that don't belong. I have a bunch of files that don't even belong to this site. Not to mention the forum improvement.

I don't know if I'll be updating anytime soon. I'll probably just spend some time backing up, working on the websites, and school.

Later dudez.
