I keep hearing about that java script error. I've only seen it on my mom's computer but not on mines. How can I find out what it is or fix it?

Hi WebKid,
Looks a lot better now- but in IE it looks like the table needs to be moved about 2 pixels to the left (so it lines up with the blue bar), and there is also a JavaScript error on the page. Other than that, it looks pretty good.

Thank you so much! To me it looks ok from here. Do you guys see any other problem with the tables?? Thanks

Now that's something -- you should see this site in Opera! Gracious!

I ran it through the validator -- way many mistakes. Mostly having blank attributes that aren't allowed. Except for the alt attribute, if you aren't going to define the attribute, remove it. Especially the align="" in the images, as that will screw up your layout to no end.

I hate to break it to you, but it's not holding together properly in IE, either. Probably the align issues.

carterjackson.com/index/celtic.html may help you some -- it's got some tips on table layouts, but it doesn't wholly apply as it's for the 9-cell surround effect.

The groovy dhtml navigation doesn't work in Opera at all. You really should include text navigation for the spiders to index the site, even if you don't care if humans can navigate it, and especially if you do.

It has the makings of an interesting site, but you might want to invest in something like htmlvalidator.com which would help you get your code straight for ANY browser.

Forgot the code on the thread...

Has to look like this:

<td width="55" nowrap>&nbsp;</td>
    <td nowrap>&nbsp;</td>

Don't leave out the & n b s p-things - for some reason they aren't displayed here...

Solution...

Hey Webkid!

I've had this problem, too. Solution is pretty simple...
Each or you have on your page needs to include a "nowrap". This tells the column to stay that way without being resized. Only use this on the tags mentioned above - not on text-sections.

Tags should look like this: or
