Hi guys, I would love to have some of your precious opinion and feedback. I used some javascript to make some animation on the sliding content but i received some comment that my site looks a bit weird in IE (internet explorer). My site: windows mobile freeware Please do notice on the "featured" column and "sponsor-about us-random news" column. Oh yea, if possible, please do state down which browser you are using and which problem you encounter. Thanks in advance
Thanks for this link, i will definitely check it out. Thank you guys for your feedback, appreciate it very much Anyway, i asked help from you guys coz someone told me that there's error with the javascript in his IE, so some of the page aren't aligned properly. Slow huh...hmmm... This is because i am using blogger as the web host so i have to use photobucket as the image host. Think of getting rid of the slider column (just underneath "featured" column) maybe it can load faster. Any suggestion or idea how to improve the loading speed? Thanks in advance Best Regards
Well, the first thing I did since it's a site for windows mobile, was to open it in IE and Opera on a windows mobile device... ... and I'm not sure how you managed it, but neither device is shrinking/re-arranging the content for handheld - even Opera's force 'small screen' option is ignored, making it next to useless for your target audience! The absurd filesizes, use of flash banners and flash content, complete lack of images off degradation add up to a website that not one mobile user would EVER want to visit, and is painful to load even on a desktop machine. MOST of this can be blamed on the THREE MEGABYTES of javascript and 800 megs of images. At 1.5 Megabytes COMPRESSED (and an ungodly 4.5 megabytes raw) you are 20 times or more larger than I would EVER make the largest website I'd ever deploy... Mobile users, most of whom are on bandwidth-capped/metered connections would rip you a new ******* on those grounds ALONE. You have accessibility issues across the board from images for text with no graceful degradation, undersized fixed metric fonts, so much javascript it sends firefox into never-never land every time you try to scroll, that cyan body text being of insufficient contrast to it's background meaning it might as well be invisible, and most of the gaudy images (like the header) are similarly afflicted. Yellow on white is SO legible - not. ... and that's BEFORE we pop the bonnet. With 286 validation errors you do not have HTML, you have complete gibberish. The no-right click javascript being a total waste of bandwidth since Opera users (like say... opera mini and/or mobile) are uneffected by it (and on handheld Opera is the king, not Saffy or IE), you've inlined your CSS for god knows what reason - scary since you HAVE 121k of CSS in external sheets, AND are using inlined STYLE and presentational markup that begs the question what the devil do you even have external CSS for in the first place. Redundant title attributes, entire sections of the site built in DHTML, no media types on your CSS, iFrame's for god knows what reason... It's difficult/impossible/impractical for your target audience to use, and reads of like a list of how not to build a website. Sorry to say, my advice is throw it all away and start over from scratch.
wow~dp is such a nice place to meet with experts. Thanks deathshadow, though i don't quite understand half of what you have said I will try my best to change it as best as possible.
