Ah, much better than the last one I just looked at. Nicely fluid and you let
*me* choose my own font size. Very good.

Still using tables for non-tablular data though.

You should use a width in em's for that left hand nav bar. When I make my
font larger some of it wraps and some of it disappears off the right hand
side.

You also use deprecated stuff lke <font> and bgcolor for table cells. Move
everything to CSS and go to the strict DTD.

Speaking of that, where is the doctype. You can't validate without one so I
assume you have not validated the page.

There is a missing image just under the first paragraph which, by the way,
is far to long to read in just one sitting.

Do NOT mess with my scroll bars.

Cheers
Richard.

Nicely condescending. How about you learn to quote properly while you're at it?

Visually it looks fine.

However, it seems rather 'difficult' for anyone using a non-visual
browser/screen reader to use.

Example. When I first come to your site I discover that it uses frames.
Navigating to the first frame I hear:

[www.magnetosgifts.com/catalog.htm.]
(Start of form 1.)
[Text: 0.00]
(End of form 1.)
[www.magnetosgifts.com/basket.htm.]
[www.magnetosgifts.com/order01.htm.]

........ not sure I'd be able to figure out what that was all about ;-)

........ would I stay around long enough to find out?


regards.

i insert the doctype line


Sorry, this type of URI scheme (undefined) is not supported by this
service. Please check that you entered the URI correctly.

URIs should be in the form: http://validator.w3.org/

what kind of doctype i should put in ???

part source list
Below is the source input I used for this validation:

1: <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
2: <html>
3: <head>

what you mean a "non visual" ... is for phone browser ?

No, in this case, a browser that reads the page to you.

They come in very handy when you're writing content and trying to do your
own proofreading. Because you've written the content, your eyes might not
catch errors, but hearing your content read back to you helps you catch
mistakes easily. I have the IBM Homepage Reader and I love it.

As an example, people who have sight impairments will use a browser or
screen reader that will *speak* the contents of the Web page.

http://www.magnetosgifts.com/ is a blank page. well there's loads of script
but the w3c validator validates HTML - it doesn't understand javascript.

There are other devices such as braile readers which output the text
character by character one line at a time.

I prefer the Jaws screen reader.

To test if your site works, install a screen reader, turn off the
monitor and see if you can navigate through the site.

Never ask a VI person to check your site for you as they tend to know
the quirks to get past bad code and tend to forget to tell you about
it.

so how can i validate this page ... i 'm using a shopping cart program
that generate this web template . "scs3.2 - www.scsystem.com "
Click to expand...

I have no experience of using that software but I do know that web pages
should contain HTML. For any other type of resource you will need to use
different type of validation to spec.

Perhaps use a more standards compliant shopping cart.
http://www.scsystem.com doesn't validate either which gives an indication
(but not proof of course) of the quality of pages generated with their
software.
