Ya know, I thought to myself, as I looked at the new "design", "Wow, that really looks like a template you might buy". Of course, I then scrolled down to discover that you were too lazy to even remove the code that marked it as a template. Is that what you do/plan to do for your customers...

Why are they signing up? You can pay through Paypal without an account. It should give them the option on the Paypal landing page.

Go with position:relative instead. You don't have to use a wrapper, but it makes your life a little easier if you're trying to center or otherwise position the entire page.

http://roedesigns.com/clients/emily/ Have a look, please. A couple things: -Favicon and example images are temporary. -Links don't go anywhere, but will very soon. Thanks! Ron

Need a link so we can see the issues. A quick, preliminary answer would be to build the menu yourself. Using someone else's code is quick and easy, but you have no idea how they went about coding it, whether its good, clean code or how your other code will interact with theirs. Also, you have a...

Could be bad...real bad. Or, it might not break at all. You'll just have to test it. You're already a step in the right direction by being concerned.

No idea what he's talking about. It's all the same font.

No, it doesn't need to all be 1 font. You just need to make sure the fonts you do use work together.

Accessibility. If the text doesn't render, a screen reader won't read it. With the code I posted, the text renders, you just can't see it. There may be SEO implications as well, but I'm not the best person to ask about that.

Actually, we would. In fact, we'd likely be making more doing it. In any market, the low-end, budget option devalues the product as a whole. If a client doesn't know the difference, why would they pay me my rate when their cousin's girlfriend's brother will do it in iWeb for $50? So, now we have...

For disclosure's sake, I'm not a designer as a career. But to your point. I never even tried to get a commission until I felt like I had a really good handle on design. I figured, rightly, that no one would really want a site they could build themselves. This is the most ridiculous point...

The people who are not web designers shouldn't be charging people to make websites, simple as that. I think it goes without saying that if you're using the tools of amateurs to charge people for the work of professionals, you really can't call yourself much of anything except a fraud.

Wow, the market for WYSIWYG-built crapfests is on the rise, huh?

XHTML, as Caldwell said is more strict. It forces you to not code like a retard, which has many benefits, not the least of which is fewer cross-browser layout issues. HTML5 incorporates XHTML syntax, so I'm not sure what the advantage of an XHTML5 would be. @DesignerBill: Put your big girl...

It won't validate, but it'll work. The question is, why would you want to? What I would do instead is load the font using @font-face. You'll want the text to be in your header for search engine purposes. The other alternative would be something like this: HTML <div id="logo"><h1>Welcome to...

Simple answer: don't use iframes.

Um...No. Are you doing this for clients, or for yourself? If it's just for you, feel free to continue on. If is for someone who is paying you to actually create a website, hide this information from them, and don't make any promises that sound anything like the following: - That the sites will...

The only difference between strict and transitional is what shenanigans it will let you get away with. The correct DOCTYPE for HTML 5 is what Phreadee posted above. None of the DTD crap is required. I would suggest using HTML 5 for a new site. If you do, however, be sure to use the HTML5 shim.

H1 tags are the most important, as Phreadee said. If you're stuck on using the image, take it out of the H1 tag, put text in it and hide the H1. There are a number of ways to hide it. I usually set the header image as the background of a div, the put the H1 tag in there. Then, I set the H1...

Just the default.
