right! You guys are funny

;d

@nitation
abeg stop this, lets get back to the topic at hand. dede mi ra wo

@kolitos
i dont see anything bad in nitation's statement and i think u gave the right reply. seriously i see no reason why you should think you are being belittled

this topic is interesting and important, pls lets get back to the topic at hand. where Dhtml ? sey u go let them spoil this topic for you?

for me, i believe there is no reason why everything must be stored in a db when there are ways of securing sessions stored in a file.
i will ask you all must the file reside in the tmp folder and how is storing sessions in file not secure cos over the years have been privilege to work on large applications which i most times prefer to store in a file and base on my knowledge in security, am sure its safe. nitation, never run oo come back depend urself

guy, u know nigerians now, you for don give all the top guys some money. ooo u don Bleep u .
on a serious note, some months back,i also lose some good cash becos the general manager of the hotel wan share for the money and me i know until the man take back go give the job to other person. it was not funny cos i had a lot of plan on the money den.
that is nigerians for u

abeg uche, no vex o, pls wetin be the web address to sheraton site cos i don google tire.

smartsoft:
Tech what a heck? does it look like yours

why the noise lol, at least am yet to say anything.

nice idea.

Afam:
The problem now is that I don't have any program to decrypt the message.

http://www.channelstv.com/contact_us.php

i was referring to the above.

Afam:
The only reason this error is showing is that both the developer and the client have not clicked on the contact us link since the site was developed or that either (or both) of them did but felt it wasn't important to correct.

but what do they need the mysql connection for on that page. guess, may be the page is binded to a database

@ smartsoft
na me and u dey use table before o but becos u don sabi CSS, you no want let me. no worry me ma don vex, just give me one or two months 

haba afam what do you need that for

the website : www.ymcabauchi.org

Afam, i still want to know how you got that error from the site cos i don't see how that is possible.

uche ur logo no comment

Sam Milla:
very neat and simple; though i havent gone through all the links

thanks.

My review:
1) http://www.ymcabauchi.org/team.php - I selected a department and filled out all other

fields, yet I get an error asking me to select a department 

will work on it before tomorrow. thanks

yawa-ti-de:
2) I start typing on page above then a weird number appears to the bottom right.  I wonder

what it is then figure out it is telling me characters I have typed but I see no correlation

b/w that and what I am typing.  Might I suggest:1
a) You style a box around the number so that it is noticeable
b) Indicate to the user how many characters they have to type, either min or max

bad me, i will get rid of that immediately

yawa-ti-de:
3) Header: YMCA in red is not readable to me.  Neither is the white text

just kidding

yawa-ti-de:
4) http://www.ymcabauchi.org/allnews.php - is the news being pulled from a db? If not, I

pity whoever will be updating the page.  If yes, never mind

can't imagine it not being pulled from db.

yawa-ti-de:
5) http://www.ymcabauchi.org/supportYmca.php - I select Nicaragua, hit enter and I get a

lightbox-type popup telling me there is no content.  Fair enough.  What pissed me off is

that, there was no way for me to get rid of the modal window.  Crashed my browser man (I use

FF).  What if I don't want to speak with your team?  Angry Angry

you dont mean it.
the client want visitors to be forced to contact their team but i think base on this i need

to speak with my client again.

yawa-ti-de:
6) I see that you are using jquery which is cool but unless I am not hitting the right

pages, I don't see you using it that much.  Hopefully you didn't download 55KB of code for

just a thing or 2.

i did not use the entire 55kb. just pick one or two things from it.

yawa-ti-de:
7) The gray bar: Left side says YMCA bauchi.  Right said says news.  I would probably

demarcate b/w the 2 as to me, one color denotes they are related.

tried that but was not looking good. i will do a change ( during my free time ).

thanks

yawa-ti-de:
8 ) A lot of your code is just fluff.  If you used CSS layout, you could reduce download

times significantly.  Check out what I found on this page:

http://www.ymcabauchi.org/supportYmca.php#sup

<tr>
                <td width="123" height="16"></td>
                        <td width="10"></td>
                        <td width="20"></td>
                        <td width="71"></td>

                        <td width="8"></td>
                        <td width="21"></td>
                        <td width="91"></td>
                        <td width="21"></td>
                        <td width="4"></td>
                        <td width="84"></td>
                        <td width="48"></td>
                        <td width="11"></td>
                </tr>

am working on CSS, i just need time to eat and digest CSS 

yawa-ti-de:
10) Long pages should have a "back to top".  Jquery has a cool plugin called jtinyscrolling.

Use it

lazy me can't implement that now but i will keep that in mind.

yawa-ti-de:
11) Pages with breadcrumbs like: http://www.ymcabauchi.org/ymcaSchools.php - not cool how

the items wrap.  Maybe you should consider reducing the number of characters or the actual

font size.

i will reduce the font size.

inf8nity:
<span class="style1">Bauchi YMCA Ongoing Projects</span> for the index page and <td height="34" align="left" valign="middle" class="topred">Fill the form below to Support Us @ Ymca Bauchii</td> for the support YMCA page doesn't look good with brown image on the background ill advise u to try another color probably a diff shade of blue.

Try using Grey box instead its lightweight and cute here is the download link http://orangoo.com/labs/GreyBox/Download/

checking out grey box

you sure cos me i dey look joomla, very soon i go dey use am small for some of my jobs. na work no let me get time to read.

yawa-ti-de:
he he, tech pros, even when I know it is the only/correct solution, I have always believed in always leaving myself some wiggle room for when the ITKs decide to say something like, "there is another way"

yawa

remoranger:
@yawatide
I am an ITK
AND yes there is anoda way

But let me spare you the resultant embarassment

abeg

yawa-ti-de:
I will stick to CSS and whatever new technologies come out b4 I retire .

did i hear retire

as for me i still use my loving table for now but planning seriously to switch to css in some months time. yes, css have alot of advantage over tables but tables help to get the work done and when it comes to designing a complex layout ( table is the answer ). there is one reply of keher i love so much, i think the site says it all.

4) Could be the server is shocked, courtesy of Sanusi unleashing EFCC on bank execs

yawa-ti-de:
I would assume you have a local (as in, on your pc/laptop) copy of your files. Just FTP from there. If that is a problem or you have too many files, use your current cPanel to zip up the files, download that to your machine, then upload to the new host and unzip the zip file.

that is all you need to do.

Cactus:
lol welcome to nigeria

nigeria biz sites are not optimized to be functional

changing url like changing strippers.

what do you mean ? i don't think that was the problem. maybe their server was just down for a while or they were doing some maintenance.

Cactus:
Take an overall look at the color scheme of the site. The red really pops out like bam I am in your face. like it is screaming, CAN YOU SEE ME NOW? ah ah. Sincerely, I do not know how to pick colors for site design. I am horrible with color schemes. Not sure what to recommend. I only work on the gray scale. If I have a web project to do, I spend a lot of time looking through CSS galleries to find nice color combination.

viewing the site to see what you are saying

hum, i feel the red drawns attention, I did not look at it from that angle.

Cactus:
Maybe you can use a softer red.

i think i will consider using a softer red but am not sure if i still have all the .png files for the site. let me look around.

cactus, thanks for your time.

lorladeh:
@Afmax.I never told u I was a newbie & me saying i dont know how to float my menu, does not mean I dont.I was only refering to the drop down menus @ the top.
