your opinion

#1

Hey I just wanted to get some opinion's on this site I building right now. I through it up on a free brinkster.com server for testing.

just looking for any good comments or bad comments, any suggestions and also how it might look in a netscape browser (preferably NN6) and just an over all essesment of the site (how it looks and the over all feel)

None of the links are active right now. All I have done so far is the index page and another page for iFrame content. If you click the logo it will take you to the site that they have right now (it is pretty lame).

Thanks guys for the help!

Oh ya and one other thing. Does anybody know if it is okay to have IE and NN on the same machine? I heard that it can cause problems but I wasn't sure. I have Opera and IE on my PC and it doesn't seem to be a problem.

Thanks!

I don't suffer from insanity.......I enjoy every minute of it!

Overall look and feel is good, color scheme is very good. I can't say I like
the marquee thing (scrolling sideways text) but that's just personal

It's WAY lame in Mozilla, where I have it set to block third party images.
NONE of their images display, not a single one! The site is totally useless.

Has a very nice look and feel to me. There is one problem in Mozilla and
presumably the same will exist on NN6 & 7, in that the drop-down list of
Models is significantly taller than it is in IE. It's tall enough that it
stretches the container where it's placed breaking apart the oval shape
where it is. See http://apptools.com/images/temp/dunks.gif for a bit of what
it looks like.

You have the drop down list, but it won't work on some browsers because it's
not inside a <form></form> tags.

It should be no problem at all. I have IE6, Opera 6 & 7, NN 4.7, 6.1 and 7.0
all on one Win2k machine. The only thing you can't have is more than one
version of IE per O/S installation.

Looks good in Netscaoe 7.1. Bit slow to load even with broadband.

Don't know what others have said, but...

You have both styles and a crap load of javascript functions in the <body>
tag...none of that ought to be there. Should all be in the <head>. The thing
takes FOREVER to load w/ 56k modem. The tables are really nastily built (the
main table is even set to 100% height!!) and will have plenty of problems
x-browser. There are a TON of empty cells (not even an   inside them...).
Colspans strewn throughout. Not a single image with alt text. Looks like most
of it was built using other people's scripts and stuff! Not exactly
"professional", IMHO. The look is good, but what is good looks without the
technical ability to hold it up?

Sorry if this sounds harsh...but you did ask!
