How to build a not-so-bad site with few tools. Plz lemme know your humble opinions, what you think, what you would like to see, etc.
Abyss courtesy link is halfway on the left side, and banner is bottom-left.
thank you Aprelium.

got rid of the popup menu based on java script, and substituted with rollover menu in CSS.
a couple of minor updates in the graphic.
i really would like to hear your comments.
Not only if liked it or not, but also ideas and improvements; if you found it useful (if you are a developer), etc.
http://brionews.com
WARNING: to visit it do NOT use M$ IExploder: it does not follow the HTML and CSS standards. So vision is messed up.
To do (in this order):
to add an other about 25 fun links
buy a TLD
buy an other PC and step back to linux (when i'll have both cash for the PC and time to setup the linux box)
setup POP3 and SMTP server
a RSS blog ?
a newsletter ?

Ya, I am aware of the problem: it is an occasional behavior, it doesn't happen all the times. However just reloading the page, sometimes fixes it.
I am working on it, if I only knew where the bug is.
thank you. _________________ Brionews - Everyday Freshnews http://brionews.com |

briosky,
Reloading the page can solve the problem sometimes only. Most of the time, the box has two lines instead of one. May be you'll have to set its width to a fixed value. _________________ Support Team

You're probably referring to http://pba.trustabyss.com .
The menu is working great now. We've tested it on the same FireFox that we've used yesterday and it seems that your fix has solved the displaying issue. _________________ Support Team

The problem rises with the rollover menu, inasmuch IExploder doesn't support the Hover property.
The homepage's been written with the Industry Standards. IExploder simply doesn't follow the Industry Standards.
M$' fault.
Thank you every one.

Please god tell me my eyes are decieving me, and that I didn't see you write that I used an Apple.
That is a windows pc, sir.
I take it you didn't read my disclaimer.
I may defend apple, but I'd never use them. _________________

Hi 423,
that happened coz you used M$ IExploder, didn't you?
In the upper-right corner there is a Warning for the M$ IExploder users, that explains why and how M$ IExploder sucks.
Spend 2 min.s reading it: it doesn't hurt !!
Have a super day,

Hmm, I just read that. If its up to "industry standards" then why do I get over 80 validation errors? Industry standards means it works will all browsers and the HTML is written correctly.
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fbrionews.com%2F
My website may have more than that but I make sure it actually works in ALL browsers.
Did you know that you will be losing website hits because of this? _________________ Andy (AbyssUnderground) (previously The Inquisitor)

Well if you look at it in IE then you would see that it doesnt, I think he was just referring to the colours that makes it look like blinds... _________________ Andy (AbyssUnderground) (previously The Inquisitor)

|
|
The Inquisitor wrote: | why do I get over 80 validation errors? |
All the news seen on the site come from RSS enabled news' sites. I warned about that
Basically it happens that the queried sites return strings like some&thing instead of some&thing.
One day if I'll have spare time, maybe I'll write a PHP filter to change all the "&" in "&".
The Inquisitor wrote: | Industry standards means it works will all browsers and the HTML is written correctly. |
Indeed it does: I've got positive reports with Konqueror, Netscape, Safari and Firefox, of course.
Some of the screenshots can be seen here. ASAP I'll post more screenshots with more browser.
All the normal browsers (except Lynx, of course) on this planet support the hover property,
because it is Industry Standards.
Except M$IExploder 'cause they dont give a damn and try to impose their own $hit.
However I wrote about this matter here
The Inquisitor wrote: | Did you know that you will be losing website hits because of this? |
They are just 57.7% as you can see here, and dropping.
This is one of those rare cases in which the majority is wrong.
Dear Andy,
although I deem you as an expert and valued technician,
and often I read your posts here and there, let me say this.
The only way (in my knowledge) to make the menu available
also to M$IExploder, is to use Javascript.
Now it turns out not only I am versus Javascript but also
frankly I dont give a flying fudge about M$IExploder users:
they get what they deserve.
And I am happy with my 42.3% of sane users. _________________ Brionews - Everyday Freshnews http://brionews.com |

I agree with you entirely but I was just pointing out that the majority use IE so until FF or some other browser becomes standard it might be worth trying to make it work with IE?
I use FF so its no worry to me but I just thought I'd point it out.
I have also tried using JavaScript for a menu and it didnt work out as I planned. It worked fine in IE, then I changed it to work in IE and FF, then IE wouldnt work, fixed that problem so it worked in IE and FF, then tried to make it work in opera, never succeeded but it stopped the FF version from working... So I gave up. I just thought it might have been nice to have extending/retractable menus. _________________ Andy (AbyssUnderground) (previously The Inquisitor)

Dear cmxflash,
please read more carefully my last post, you didn't get the point.
However I'll be glad to repeat:
the news are pumped on the page requested by the user through PHP scripts,
that query several websites for their RSS pages in XML.
briosky wrote: | Basically it happens that the queried sites return strings like
"some&thing" instead of "some&thing". |
If you notice, all the errors begin after source line #330,
exactly where begins the code from the returning RSS feeds
Code: | <div class="NewsBox"> |
Some months ago, before sticking the validator banners, I did an experiment:
taking off all the query code, I got a perfectly validated page!
I cannot be held responsible for third parties strings

The problem comes from the fact that different browsers,
although compatibles with the W3C specs, are NOT compatible
among themselves, i.e. one to each other.
So they render same instructions in different ways.
2) Not all the browsers support the same features.
http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/reference/browser_chart/
http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/reference/browser_chart/index_nix.html
For more info:
http://www.google.com/search?q=Cross-browser+compatibility+issues
3) Anotyher dirty example is this: write a mixed mode graphic-text Java applet
and try to run it on different OS'es and browsers: you may have a surprise.
4) Wanna more? Take a C code source and compile it with 3-4 different compilers.
Not only you'll get different ASM code (this is normal)
but the programs behave differently!
Conclusion: never trust IT people when they talk "compatibility" _________________ Brionews - Everyday Freshnews http://brionews.com |

Using the W3C validation buttons implies that your WHOLE page is W3C compliant. Why even bother using the icon/logo that is supposed to mean the whole page is compliant when it is not. Even if the majority of the page is compliant, the part where you have embedded RSS feeds is not, therefore don't use the button, which to most, clearly implies that the whole page is valid.
Rather than using a "My site is W3C compliant button" you could consider using a "link to validation" link/button instead. it would make much more sense. |

Dear dellman, I already explained that. I wish people read all the thread before posting similar questions/comments.
Let's do another example. What a user browser sees is:
Code: | <div class="rss_box">
<div class="rss_title"><a href="http://www.securityfocus.com" target="_blank">SecurityFocus Vulnerabilities</a></div>
<ul class="rss_item">
<li><a href="http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/15448" title=" Multiple Vendor lpCommandLine Application Path Vulnerability ..." target="_blank">Vuln: Multiple Vendor lpCommandLine Application Path Vulnerability </a>
<li><a href="http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/15435" title=" GDK-Pixbuf/GTK XPM Images Buffer Overflow Vulnerability ..." target="_blank">Vuln: GDK-Pixbuf/GTK XPM Images Buffer Overflow Vulnerability</a>
<li><a href="http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/15447" title=" Ekinboard Profile.PHP Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability ..." target="_blank">Vuln: Ekinboard Profile.PHP Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability</a>
</ul></div>
|
But what I wrote is something like:
Code: | <?php $src = 'RSS_XML_page_on_some_site.com'; include 'myScript.inc'; ?>
<?php $src = 'RSS_XML_page_on_some_site.com'; include 'myScript.inc'; ?>
<?php $src = 'RSS_XML_page_on_some_site.com'; include 'myScript.inc'; ?>
|
So in my source (HTML 4.01 compliant) there are some scripts.
These scripts query RSS XML pages on some websites.
The string of the returning link is framed in a <ul> and
the <ul> is stuffed in the CSS code, by the script, in the user page.
briosky wrote: | If you notice, all the errors begin after source line #330,
exactly where begins the code from the returning RSS feeds
Code: | <div class="NewsBox"> |
|
All the errors are only in the links returned by some_sites.com
All this to mean I dont have any control on the syntax of the returning links.
The juice of the matter is (once again) the part of code I wrote is HTML 4.01 compliant.
Thank you. _________________ Brionews - Everyday Freshnews http://brionews.com |

I think the point is that it doesn't appear (To the browser, if you will.) valid.
It might be worth putting in a few str_replaces (Your samples above suggest PHP.) to correct this. _________________

Briosky,
I have read all the above posts, and I undertsand exactly what you are getting at. However, my point is that the page as a whole is not a valid html 4.01 transitional document! I do realise that this is not your fault, but then why display the W3C button which by its nature, and its intended use claims compliance of the WHOLE document to standards ? (and yes I have read the text underneath it). |

Nation,
it appears the problem is solved.
Being more in the C++, I didn't even think there was such a function in PHP.
I just added
Code: | ...
$str = str_replace( "&", "&", $str);
...
$title_str = str_replace( "\"", "", $title_str); |
Of course, over than " and &, that's not warranty in the future
more weird characters couldn't popup.
What can I say ?
Thanks a bunch !!
