It is not insane to think you can build a site like this. It is, however, insane to think you can do this quickly. You'll need more than just basic design knowledge to get into ecommerce, especially if you're going to handle bidding instead of just regular buying.

:facepalm: Read the OP before you make a comment. Not just the title.

Someone really needs to write a tutorial for graphic designers who want to become web designers... I don't know how it is but graphic designers always manage to learn to design in tables and that makes no sense at all! Okay now that I've gotten a little venting out of the way I will try to be...

Yeah exactly. If you give them the same class they will have the same styles. If that's what you want then go for it (although the name is odd if it's not in the footer) but if you want different styles they will need different class names.

That's because your margin is in pure pixels. If you want a responsive design that margin should also be a percentage. Although in the long run you don't want to go with percentages the whole way. You should implement CSS Media Queries to find smaller widths and change accordingly. Typically...

Put a class on the contact page inputs and use those ;) you can't get them to both work with one functions without running some kind of check to see which one it is within the function

Then in your contact.js change the $(#name,#message... ) part to: var color = /* bgcolor */ var border = /* border css */ $(.textfield-footer).focus(function() { $(this).css({"background":color,"border": border}); }); This way it only effects the ones in the footer.

It's a new style. The :focus will put in anything that changes from the basic .textfield-footer property. If you're doing the error method the way I describe then in your javascript you would just remove the error class on focus. If you're not doing it that way then I'd have to know how you're...

Both of those examples look very old and mangled to me personally. You should go to something like templatemonster and look at more modern designs. I understand what you mean about the contrast but I just don't think it works. Everything looks very gridlike and boxy. As far as design goes it's...

Didn't look at the code but the site looks very 1998 to me. There is very little actual style in that. Just some boxes with different colors. The gradients in the header and navigation clash pretty hard. The sidebar is grey with black text? Then suddenly there's orange in there. Very confused

For a starter I would look at this link for more information about making unordered lists. The way you did it makes alot of unordered lists with no information in them. In reality you only need one list with alot of list items. Also if you ever find yourself wanting to write...

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO Okay now that that is out of the way ;) It sounds like you want two vertical columns with those 2-7 mods. If that's the case you can either float them all left and then use margins and widths to get them into the two columns (floats will wrap if you exceed the...

Yes there's no reason to do "HTML css code". In your css you would just put: /*input class name*/:focus { } Obviously you don't have the comment in there it's just class name then :focus. Now if you're really trying to get that red border if there are errors then you'll need...

What in the world is <br><h1>Words</br></h1>??? A) That's not even nested correctly... you close the inside tags before the outside tags B) <br></br> is not even a tag? <br /> is a self closing tag that's a line break but why would you need that? If you want to float the logo image and...

If you want mod2 to show up to the right of mod1 then you should float them both left and put mod1 in the html before mod2. Basically float:left pushes it to the left then looks to the next piece and wants to place that piece just to the right of whatever was previously floated left. If you then...

Yeah if you remove that it shouldn't be too big of a deal, then any of your :focus pseudo classes will work just fine.

I haven't looked at the website yet but putting them side by side would be accomplished with CSS Floats.

I didn't look at the green message you were talking about. There must be something in the contact form that puts the inline style on there when you click it. The reason your style gets overwritten is the inline style that's thrown on there. A quick fix would be to throw and !important tag on the...

..... wha?! You're against proper grammar?

Yes but if they do this throughout the whole page then their html is going to be bloated so far beyond useable code that you can't debug errors and the file size is going to be unnecessarily large. Say all you want about it being valid, it's not a good way to do things.
