Seems you have acquired yourself a troll brucie.

i bet you're jealous!
We told you not to feed it. They *always* follow you home.

as long as mommy doesn't find out it'll be ok. you can come over and
play "lets see how long he can hold his breath underwater" with him if
you like. he'll enjoy that after i was playing "lets see what he does
when i set his hair on fire" this morning.

i hope he lasts longer than the last one. they're fun!

Yeah :-(

The one I found the other week seems to have disolved. They do that after
you correct them a couple of dozen times. Just not made like they used to
be.

BTW. Yahoo has nearly indentical menu as on your page, just different
colours and... SMALLER FONTS.

You provide the value Yahoo does, you can get away with a lot.

Do you?

How the hell Yahoo makes a business if their fonts are so small that no
one can read them???

How people operate computers if they can't see menus?


If brucie can't see these ones, how he can see at Yahoo?


You love these huge fonts? Ugly colours? Boring pages? Adjust your
settings, monitor fonts or... get better glasses, do it but stop telling
others that they have to like the same stuff you do!

You guys are nuts!

Ever heard about democracy? We have choices and majority wins.

People love to be different and they love to love different things.

I really hate, when someone tells me, what I have to like or what I
shouldn't.

It's not anybody business!

If you like to help some one, do it but do not impose on others what
they should like or not for God's sake!

If you are nice guy and want to help others, than provide an
information, but comments that you do like it or not... keep for your wife.

Maybe she will let you have own opinion.

If you are lucky!

;)

who said yahoo invokes the bug or that i use yahoo anyway?
You love these huge fonts?

what huge fonts? the bug is with the text size set to 'smallest'. yahoo
has problems with some of the text but not enough to make it totally
unusable like chloris menu.

the fix is very simple instead of using ems use % for chlori that would
be 90%; instead of .9em;

you're a fucking idiot.

very readable, looks good in IE6, Netscape 7.1, Firefox 1.0 and even in
Amaya 8.7 (which usually fucks up almost everything...). Windows 2000.

Hello

Is the menu (http://www.alz-maschinen.ch/vorschlag1/)
readable and usable in 'every' browser/OS? Any
accessibility issues?

Can someone test with older browsers on a MAC and make
a screencap?

Thanks
chlori

Looks fine here on a Mac (Modern browsers not old ones.)

Al.

· your logo should be in a <h1> with alt text of whatever the image
says. only one <h1> per page, use less important <hx> as required
through the page.

<h1 alt="blah"></h1> doesn't validate in XHTML 1.0 Strict.

Isn't <h1><img src="" alt="blah" ...></h1> good enough?

Hello Jukka

Thanks for your reply.

The text is _grossly_ too small.

Do you mean the IE-bug brucie was talking about? I
changed the font-size to 100%, see "next version":

Old version:
http://www.azm-maschinen.ch/vorschlag1

Next version:
http://www.azm-maschinen.ch/vorschlag2
Moreover, there's no obvious indication that the links
are links. They resemble too much the normal (non-link)
text in the logo.

Except on the home page the logo is a link now. I did
what J. Nielsen (http://useit.com/alertbox/991003.html)
said in his alertbox.
Moreover, the image on the page looks as if there were for
images that are links, since in common browsers, image link
by default have blue border around them.

Thanks for the tip. They will soon be links to bigger
images and the blue frame will be a bit thinner.
The currently chosen page's entry in the list is shown as different from
the rest, quite correctly. But it's still a link. A page should not
contain a link to itself - it's confusing.

I changed this, thanks.
On the positive side, the link texts themselves, verbally, constitute a
fairly good menu - even I can understand what the items are, and my
German is rather rusty. And it's properly written as <ul> at the markup
level, so that non-graphic browsers will present it suitably, except for
the feature that one of the links points to the page itself and is in no
way different from the other links (when CSS is not in use).

corrected.

· common problem with those types of menus is falling apart with small
windows and/or large fonts. perhaps a min-width in ems so it adjusts
with the font size (min-width not supported by IE) but then you'll get
icky horizontal scroll bars.

I know it doesn't look good at all, but you can still
read the links and use them, can't you?

its fine i like it. for some people using IE it will be crappy but
changing:

..navlist{font-size:0.9em;} to .navlist{font-size:90%;}

fixes the problem.
but you can still read the links and use them, can't you?

once you make the above change everyone who is comfortable reading text
10% below their default size wont have any problems.
