Hi,

I have just completed this site http://www.thebrasserieyarm.co.uk

any comments welcome.

Thanks
Ben

Hi Ben

I like the design of the site, simple and clean.

But you have to make a few changes. First of all the site dosen't validate. For example you have a in your ul.

then your #address is not opening the wrap or whatever you use on the index. So the address is popping out over the main container.

Hi Beat,

Thanks for the feed back and heads up on the validation issue. I fixed the issue. What browser are you using to get errors on the Address? I have now set the div tag to a fixed width, hope this has fixed the issue.

This is the first site i've done with version 1.3. I notice the stylesheet doesn't validate or can't be found. Is this because the frontend.css is now imported now?

Does anyone have any comments on this?

Hi DeXXus,

this is the old code phpwcms 1.2.8 rendered. This validates fine on my sites.

Code: Select all

  <style type="text/css" media="all">
  /* <![CDATA[ */
    body {
      margin: 0;
      padding-top: 0;
      padding-bottom: 0;
      padding-left: 0;
      padding-right: 0;

    }
  /* ]]> */
  </style>
  <style type="text/css">
  /* <![CDATA[ */
    @import url("phpwcms_template/inc_css/frontend.css");
  /* ]]> */
  </style>

what file do i need to edit to Ditch the HTML comments surrounding style rules and import statement.

Is this something that i will need to change with all phpwcms 1.3 sites or is it something i have done wrong?

Thanks
Ben

I disabled the margins in pagelayout instead of just unticking them, this has removed the html tag for body but i still have one error and the stylesheet still can't be found by the jigsaw.w3 validator.

Is it because the CDATA code is missing? Should the code read?

Code: Select all

<style type="text/css">
/*<![CDATA[*/

....lots of styles here...

/*]]>*/
</style>

Hi
CSE-Validator say's:

In XHTML documents, style and script content must not be in a comment because it technically means that the browser will see it as a comment and not as actual style or script content (though browsers are currently forgiving about this). However, not using comments makes your document less compatible with pre HTML 3.2 browsers (but most browsers now in use are HTML 3.2+ compatible). For maximum compatibility, consider putting the style information in an external style sheet. The next best option for XHTML documents is to not put the style information in a comment because this is technically not what you want even though it may work with today's browsers.

so I think you can safely remove the Comment Tags from the System !? or switch to /* <![DATA[ */ construct

they are defined in include/inc: lib/default.inc.php ~Line 122 ff

for me it works best with Browsers without any Comment or Data Construct

btw

Code: Select all

table width="150" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

  <tr>
    <td>

<ul>
    <li><a href="Early_Bird.phtml">Early Bird</a></li>
    <li><a href="Lunch.phtml">Lunch</a></li>
    <li><a href="A_La_Carte.phtml">A La Carte</a></li>
    <li><a href="Sunday_Lunch.phtml">Sunday Lunch</a></li>

<br />
    <li><a href="Newsletter.phtml">Newsletter</a></li>
    <li><a href="Find_Us.phtml">Find Us</a></li>
    <li><a href="Whats_On_At_The_Brasserie.phtml">What's On</a></li>
    <li><a href="Gallery.phtml">Gallery</a></li>
  </ul>

</td>

  </tr>
</table>

the is not allowed in ul/li - if you need a Linebreak you have to split it into two ul/li Sections and the Table wrap around makes no sense to me !?

Code: Select all

<ul>
    <li><a href="Early_Bird.phtml">Early Bird</a></li>
    <li><a href="Lunch.phtml">Lunch</a></li>
    <li><a href="A_La_Carte.phtml">A La Carte</a></li>
    <li><a href="Sunday_Lunch.phtml">Sunday Lunch</a></li>
</ul>
<ul>
    <li><a href="Newsletter.phtml">Newsletter</a></li>
    <li><a href="Find_Us.phtml">Find Us</a></li>
    <li><a href="Whats_On_At_The_Brasserie.phtml">What's On</a></li>
    <li><a href="Gallery.phtml">Gallery</a></li>
</ul>

If he spacing between seems to be slightly different than desired... you can -also- try the "obvious"...
(place the -inside- the <li> pair before that divide):

Code: Select all

<ul> 
    <li><a href="Early_Bird.phtml">Early Bird</a></li> 
    <li><a href="Lunch.phtml">Lunch</a></li> 
    <li><a href="A_La_Carte.phtml">A La Carte</a></li> 
    <li><a href="Sunday_Lunch.phtml">Sunday Lunch</a><br /><br /></li> 
    <li><a href="Newsletter.phtml">Newsletter</a></li> 
    <li><a href="Find_Us.phtml">Find Us</a></li> 
    <li><a href="Whats_On_At_The_Brasserie.phtml">What's On</a></li> 
    <li><a href="Gallery.phtml">Gallery</a></li> 
</ul>

Hi,

thanks for your feedback and advice, I have changed the unordered list and put the inside the <li> tags and also uncommented the define('SCRIPT_CDATA_ start and end in include/inc: lib/default.inc.php

Everyhtng seems to validate through jigsaw now.

Thanks again
Ben

ok the display problem in FF, Safari and so on ist not solved. I copied your markup and the css and changed it slightly. see my pm.
The site will then work.

I really suggest you not to use any tables in your layout if not absolutly needed. I left them in my fix, but I strongly recommend you to remove them.

When coding XHTML allways keep the proper semantic in mind, it will save you a lot of problems.
