It does not look good for Target. Web Accessibility news

C'mon Jerry, you know how bureaucratic these companies can be. Be
a good lad and just do it. To smooth the way as it were... I
won't let anyone else see it...

You know, I think I am feeling well enough for a swim out at
Coogee today... You would die to see the sort of day it is in
Sydney.

Not at all. Sydney's a pretty city.

I'm not advocating anything here - just want to alleviate my ignorance...
What's bad about your site being framed in someone else's site? Wouldn't
that increase your site's exposure? I understand that the other site could
be making some financial gain from using your site that way, but how does
that hurt you instead of help you?

It's not always bad. Sometimes it can be perfectly acceptable, or even
desirable. But not always, and it's always a bad thing to assume it's
OK without asking.

There are three main reasons why it can be bad. Firstly, it uses the
framed site's bandwidth and hosting costs without contributing towards
them. Secondly, it can give a misleading impression that the framed
site's editorial or content policy is the same as as that of the
framing site. And, finally, it can display the framed site in such a
way as to obscure the framed site's own advertising or navigation,
thus reducing the framed site's potential income.

What's bad is that the "hosting" site can associate whatever it wants to
with the content of your site/page. Would you want a picture of your
mother located beneath a Hitler-adorned banner stating "Arbeit macht frei"?

You mean using YOUR bandwidth to give someone else credit for YOUR
content is good?

[/QUOTE]
But near as I can see the same bandwidth is being used whether one is
looking at your site in a frame on someone else's site as is used if they
are at your site directly. I'm still missing something here...

That makes sense. Thanks, Mark.

Haha. I got the point. Thanks.

Now there's a killer of a bad idea IMO. Personally I despise sites where
your must register just to get basic information, list rate and prices.
Slam the font door and lock...great business practice!

You got this one right! I just spent $170 on a pulldown projector screen.
The first site I went to didn't get my money - just for that reason. Even if
I might save a buck, I refuse to jump through the hoops. (Maybe for $2, but
thern I don't know, right)?

When they're looking at your site, they know they're looking at your site.

If I frame your site in mine, they think they're looking at my site and
my content.

Mmm, well, that might be for the best. -So long as you don't become an
emotionless Neptunian trogg or something. As for Blinkey, I think he just
doesn't like a lot of nonsense. He's probably a perfectionist, something
I've been accused of more than once.

Glad the flu is abating. You're sick enough when you're well.

Haha. Great barb. I'm stealing that. Got someone here I can use it on.

Has Boji, my favorite hm/ha, fallen under a corollary of Godwin's
law?

We are obviously talking hypothetically as no one would look at your
site anyway...

ROFLMAO!

I'll bet I get a hell of a lot more traffic off of any of my sites than
you do from all of them together, troll.

Of course, it's not hard - all of your sites together get about 10 hits
a day - of which 9 are you.

All I know about Godwin's Law is when you started a fine, robust repartee a
very short time ago in this same thread but then petered-out in typical
lackadaisical fashion. Was it nap time or what?

Sure thing, pardner. And as someone else already mentioned, unscupulous
dobadnicks can even make your site look like part of theirs, too.

Well, I can't take all the credit. Dorayme is the kind of person with a
gift to inspire great wit by simply relating circumstances from the
unorthodoxy of her daily existence. It's amazing (in a rather vacuous
way).

I have many time stated the sties I work on. They include Cartoon
network, Siemens, Disney, Aerosmith, Snoopdogg, Chick Fil a, CBS
Sportsline.

Lets see you list.

Hey, I just did a google search for "JDS Computer Training Corp"

No site to be found. Why? Or do your skills as a web developer just
suck so much that you can't even get into google? Makes me think,
hmmm, all talk and no show...

Your just too easy Jerry.

ROFLMAO! In your dreams! And what exactly did you do when you "worked"
on those sites - see if they worked in IE?

And BTW - I can verify at least one of those sites very quickly - since
they have been one of my training customers, and all I have to do is
make a phone call. I won't tell you which one - want me to make that
call? How about a little bet they never heard of you - say $10,000
(U.S)? I can put it up. Can you?

Go away, you stoopid troll.
