maybe?
Well I think I finally got it - at least enough to be acceptable anyway - the All That Jazz layout seems to be working now in both 1024×768 and 800×600 as well as the four main Windows browsers (IE, Netscape, Firefox, Opera).
Surprisingly enough, Netscape is the only one displaying it as correctly as I can see. The other three each have one different, minor error in them - and if you’re using them you can probably see what it is, Opera’s being the most blatant. Firefox is putting a black bar above the images, IE’s calendar is too thin, and then Opera’s menu is too close to the main image. But I am too tired right now to deal with it. I think I just got way in over my head with this one.
The only real depressing thing is that I had to move the copyright and site counter from the bottom of the page to the bottom of the menu. When I added a float:right for the other three browsers (not IE) it jumped to the top left and wouldn’t go away - in all browsers.
But either way, I like it - I don’t care what Jared says. :P
Plus, as of now, 89% of my visitors use IE6, 3% use IE5, 7% use Netscape 5, and 1% use “generic crawler 0.X” whatever that means…. oh shoot, wonder what this thing looks like in Netscape 5, I’ve been testing in… 7? or is it 6? Whatever…
I am also glad the WordPress nightmare is over for delirium. I mean, that was just stupid. I couldn’t get it to work for anything. Ended up having to install the OLD version of 1.0.1 and then import entries and then finally upgrade to 1.3pre-alpha. Riiiight.
In other site-news - I am thinking of, and am 99% sure that I will, buy Sheila a domain name. But shhhh it’s a surprise. I just need ideas - anyone got any? I have to probably do this tomorrow so that it’s all set up and I can surprise her when she gets home from Georgia. But now that I can host unlimited domains, and she had expressed an interest in one several months ago, we should go for it.
I have also already moved over the citizens website. I’m sure it’s propagated by now, although I haven’t checked. I can’t remember if I changed the DNS for the dobermans one though, lol. But I have uploaded files for it. So I’ll check on that in a bit.
OH I am also up for a job to do a site for a guy who is running for State Rep this fall. He’s friends with my mom and she’s hooking me up, even though he’s the one who asked her about me. So I am waiting to see what will go on there. I told her that I can do the domain for $7 (cost to me) and then I can host him for $2/mo. I do not plan on asking for actual design payment. If they want to, they can, if they can’t, not a big deal.
AUGH. I just noticed that ONE page of the Dobermans website looks bad in Netscape and Firefox… okay well not bad, just really different…. Like my content styling just disappeared… How wierd is that!?
Okay well later I am going to A’s to show her how to upload the website she’s been working on, lol. The local cafe for her friend. I also have to pull some stuff off of floppy disks since I don’t have a floppy drive anymore. Yeah, I stole some pics at my mom’s yesterday lol - scanned them then tried to upload them to my server, but it wouldn’t go, so I was forced to use floppies. Yeah long story.
Anyway, maybe I’ll post a real post later, sometime tonight. But for now, I need FOOD. Mindy also sent me two + more poems that I need to post. And I guess it’s time for a photo log… boy, am I behind… yes add that to everything else I have to do around here…
