1) http://www.lincolncollegeliberia.com/photo.html - your photos are bleeding thru the background in FF. Something tells me you set the height of the light blue area, hence the bleed thru. As a matter of fact, I think I am write, courtesy of this code:
<div id="left" style="width: 516px; height: 289px"> on http://www.lincolncollegeliberia.com/partner.html

Remove the height attribute and let the page flow naturally.

2) http://www.lincolncollegeliberia.com/contact.html doesn't validate and consequently forwards me to http://pub43.bravenet.com/emailfwd/senddata.php and you also have a yahoo address listed. Why? The light blue background is also non-existent.

3) http://lincolncollegeliberia.com/study.html - too long. Why not have a "back to top" link after so many links.

4) You are using the xhtml transitional dtd yet your code doesn't validate (for example: <br> instead of
)

5) Consider using one of the many javascript libraries (jquery, mootools, etc) for a more interactive gallery.

Good luck!

@poster, i am just seeing this for the first time. Next time we chat online, i will see what i can do. Meanwhile
i just posted a topic concerning how to convert from html to xhtml
without actually writing codes.
You may find that useful. I will give you the analyses result online with some solutions as well - need to censor my posts.
Re: Oya Review This Website! by segsalerty(m): 12:10pm On Feb 28, 2009
@ all,  expecially @Poster
I see that its either my mouth is smelling or somehow by letting you know whats wrong with your site when viewed on different platform of browsers ! cant you do something to that ? and by telling you how i figured out the source of your side coding ? ( is that also a crime )? maybe am jumping telling you i can fix your form for you coz you just copied verbatin the codes from the Template or whatever , thats why your ( forms looks like -----> <form method="post" action="www.website.come/php" /> , forgive me as a newbiee! i wont do that anymore ,
am out , i better keep my mouth shut next time
Re: Oya Review This Website! by yawatide(f): 1:36pm On Feb 28, 2009
zstyle,

I just checked out the photos page and must confess that but for a tiny flaw (the borders around your content area, as they exist on the home page, don't exist on the photos page), I am impressed. See, such cool effects can make me, and I am sure others, forget about other issues with your site. It is very interactive indeed. I am happy you have learned something grin

I don't see any issues with what you have used. What mootools issues were/are you having? Keep us posted. The only things I would point out are:

1) Remove that, "Click here" and add an actual photo AND
2) Replace if possible the green "next" and "previous" links with actual images to the same effect. It shouldn't be that hard to find the links and replace them in the code.

Once again, good job.

Re: Oya Review This Website! by Nobody: 6:15am On Mar 01, 2009
@Segsa, what is the meaning of all that? you have given good advices so far - just keep it up. I faced a similar crises too when i first came to NL some years ago, i became inactive, did not make any post for about a year or two (due to some embarrasment) before i eventually came back (from dynamicdrive and elsewhere).

What i just notice about this board is that there is rating, some people's advices are best taken, while some - their mauth is smelling. embarassed embarassed

@poster: erhm, try to go through the advices posted to you even if you think the mauth of the poster is smelling or even if the post is laud mauted(like me) tongue

Re: Oya Review This Website! by yawatide(f): 5:07pm On Mar 02, 2009
I don't think it is nice to say, "it is what the client wants" or "he who pays the webmaster dictates the tune". I mean, by that standard, if the client wants a 500MB logo on his site and is paying N1m for it, we should give it to him right? WRONG!

We are not just code monkeys. Our job is to use our knowledge base to advise the client as well. How many times has a client come up to you and say, "this is how I want it but you are the expert and that is why we are hiring u. You know best wat needs to be done and how", or something to that effect? If they haven't ask you that then I dare say you are not being recognized for what you do or you haven't presented yourself well. I hear that statement pretty much all the time.
Re: Oya Review This Website! by OmniPotens(m): 5:33pm On Mar 02, 2009
Two things I'll like to point out here.

1) As the rule of this forum points out, posts must be in English and not vernacular. Please kindly take note of this and adhere.

2) This forum is meant for all. No one is holding your fingers from clicking at your mouse or typing on your keyboard. It is free-for-all so all is expected to comment. If you want to choose who is to comment on your posts and who shouldn't, then get them on YIM or anywhere you deem fit then communicate with them.

Kindly take note of these and adhere to them, please.
