    That's how I've been feeling about Word Press... everybody bragged so much about it and how robust it is but, for me, it seems like everytime I touch it, it breaks. I may have to try that trick of yours.

    Review Please

    I like the header but don't like the 3d text. It's too big in proportion to everything else on the page. The link system could use a little work... it's sluggish and the rollovers are giving me a bit of trouble in IE. The rest of the site looks pretty good. Not bad for a first site... lol...

    That can happen when you mix percentages for some tables or divs with absolute sizes for others. I didn't see a problem with any of that on my screen so i'm not much help, I suppose. I did notice that in IE, there is a div bottom left that is a couple pixels off but is fine in Firefox, if...

    Help! (don't know where to start)

    Does your boss know you'll need training to be able to do the website? If so, he can't be expecting you to wave a wand and "get it done." Ian gave you the best starting point. If the site hasn't been updated in about 2 years, it's going to take time to get that information if anybody even...

    Rant

    This last time was probably my fault, then. I didn't know there was an update until I was in the control panel looking for something else, saw the update available, made my backup, and went for it because I had a little time to kill... but still... If I had a lot of time to muck around with...

    Sorry, but you forgot the link.

    hmmm... now it's irritating me why mine always overwrites files with the same two friggin lines that make me crazy having to fix all the time. Maybe because I update and install through the control panel instead of ftp?

    Contract

    There was a fellow on here some time ago who was promoting his site for legal forms ranging a variety from hosting to web design. I looked at his site and thought the prices were a little much but the forms looked pretty good. hostlegal.com Myself, I have Broderbund's Business Law which...

    Who Owns Website

    This is where contracts are very handy. Ethically, the domain name, website, and so on should be theirs if they discontinue with your services. You charge them maintenance fees to do further work on the site so I'm not sure where the problem lies. There may not be a formal contract but there is...

    Feedback please

    appropriate for the music. most sites with your kind of focus have similar sites. the only beef I have is the text is rather small. I have bad eyesight... I had to concentrate really hard to be able to read anything. You need more content but what little I read on your site, you've just...

    PHP Form Tutorial or Script

    You should be able to. I used that script here: http://www.yvonneoots.com/email.htm Yvonne didn't need anything elaborate for her site but the frontpage form wouldn't allow her to reply directly through the email she received because it went through her host's mailbox... why? don't know but...

    Cost etc

    Carl, that's a loaded question. A lot of considerations go into making a website. First you would have to define what you mean by decent, then you need to be able to explain what you want your website to do functionally rather than how it looks. Will it be a simple website with just a few...

    Please help

    What kind of server is your website on? Linux or windows? There was a rather nasty linux worm recently that shut down at least one entire subnet that I know about. Some of the IPs on that subnet were down for almost a week. Not sure if it has anything to do with your problem though. As ISD...

    Websites for newbies who need help.

    I wish I had seen that link about 2 days ago, lol. However, the person who needed is getting a handle on Frontpage, at least. I'll remember this thread in case I run into someone who needs something like that.

    Back Ground resize

    you can set frames to percentages instead of absolute sizes much like you would table cells and align them left, center, or right. The background image, however, is a horse of a different color... the only ways I know of to "stretch" it is allowing it to tile ... or a javascript that will...

    Rant

    yup, it's out of beta. I updated my version 4 or 5 days ago. you won't see any difference or problems unless you log out... which is what I did... clearing my cookies... gotta do that once in awhile... couldn't log back in until i fixed the files.

    Rant

    I posted this on another forum and the answers I got were pretty lame... I asked at that forum because there are a lot of them there who blog... for writers they sure don't read: ********* I'm Ditching Word Press Good thing there isn't that much there. I'm already fed up with it. Every...

    http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Form_Processors/ It's called Mail Me, 3rd up from the bottom. I used it on Yvonne's site and she loves it. So now you have two choices, :-)

    PHP Form Tutorial or Script

    I used an email script on a personal site not too long ago that didn't even need a database. If all you need is what you listed above, it's a lot better than anything database driven. Unless you need a whole lot more information why tie up a database? Let me look it up and get back to you on...
