Default Re-critique - 07-24-2009 , 10:47 PM






Hi people,

I've done some editing on a website recently
after receiving some critique here in a thread I started
a couple of weeks ago.
Would you be so kind to re-critque it again?
The website is:
http://www.fietsennaarlourdes.be/

Thanks in advance.

Looks good in general. In fact, quite competent in operation. Well done.

Do you need three columns? From what I see, two would do fine.

Look at

http://www.fietsennaarlourdes.be/parcours

and see what happens to the left side of the text on like:

Reeds gereden fietsdagen zijn aangegeven in de kleur bruin-oranje.

at small sizes.

The 3 columns are by request, its not my favorite either.
I do not even like 3 column layouts but well the client is in charge right

Haven't checkt on different resolutions al all, but I did check while
increasing/decreasing fontsizes on different browsers.
On most browsers that works just fine here without causing to much problems.

I'm not sure what you mean by small sizes: screenresolution? viewportsize?
lettersize?
But just what happens at small sizes?

Cheers.
Samuel

Hi Samuel,

Not saying 3-cols is bad in general, just that unless client is going to
use them more, why bother... But it is OK, I just mentioned it...

I mean user text size. It is set in each users preferences or options
for their browser(s).

Here is a screeshot on one of my browsers (it does not matter which) at
a font size two clicks down from my normal. In other words, two steps
down when you order "make text smaller" in the View menu.

Do you need help to avoid this or will you work it out? It is no big
deal, I mention it because so many people seem to have text set smaller
(as normal for them) than I do.

Hello Dorayme,
Youre right about the using them more then just for a singele image on each
side.
But well as usual the client doesn't understand a great deal about making
websites.

Well the reason I didn't spot it is because Firefox and IE scales the images
to, as does Opera.
I just turned that off and yes is obvious now.
There seems to be a way to avoid it, so if you care to share that with me
then I would be very much greatfull.
Not to mention the time is saves me )

cheers,
Samuel

You could give more padding to your


ol#legenda li{
...
padding-left: 5em;

But I won't go into your CSS deeply.

Hi dorayme,

I allreay have padding-left: 5em; in ol#legenda li, so that doesn't work
welll enough.
Its not really a big problem I think.

Cheers,
Samuel

I've just changed it to: padding-left: 80px;
That seems to work.

Could you test it for me in you browser?

Cheers,
Sam

The idea was to increase the padding. I know you had 5em! Why not 8em?

But as I said, I am not looking deeply into your CSS, just a tweak that
struck me you might look at...

The website is:
http://www.fietsennaarlourdes.be/

Most of the images extend beyond the <p> boundaries. To prevent that the
width of the <p> element must be set to each image's width plus any border
/margin/padding.
It seems a bit odd, and unnecessary, to use a list element for gallery
layout.
