Not sure I never went to one.

I had a *santas little helper* who set it up for me. Some of you will be able to figure out who that was.
As I said, once I get an idea of what I have to do I can carry on.
My helper did an awesome job!
Big thanks to him ;)
What say you all?

565931 2007-07-05 12:25:00 Do you need all 3 below? As they all point to the same file, I would just leave the first one, screen and print are not needed.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="www.aoteatourism.co.nz />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="www.aoteatourism.co.nz />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print" href="www.aoteatourism.co.nz />

I am not sure if this does anything in the real world ... I think its just code bloat. Sure it LOOKS important but in reality it doesn't seem to make any difference. I'd delete it :)That isn't a regular CSS file, it's actually a PHP script. It will do different things for each mediatype - that is what the '&amp;media=print' etc. parts of the URLs are for.

Cheers, when you say "crap" are you really meaning good?

According to reports there is a Flash plug in on the way for Safari on the iPhone.

565934 2007-07-05 21:33:00 Nevertheless, its redundent code :)
There is only one stylesheet called 3 times, and a duplicate code line.

the one style sheet
www.aoteatourism.co.nz

this does nothing but tell the browser its for screen or print &amp;mediatype=screen

Why bother?


I think you will find that site is a CMS site & Lovelee won’t be able to edit that or removing links to 3 css sheets ;)

Plus I think you will find that Rob will want to protect/copyright his CMS ;)

Especially when these code bloat lines are used instead of the 2 most iportant metatags.

565935 2007-07-05 22:49:00 Cheers for the feedback so far guys.

If you do a print preview of the site you will notice the menu and footer etc is not displayed or printed.

The <link rel="start/prev/next is explained here: www.w3.org

Metadata added to home page, will show Lovelee how to add to other pages.

565936 2007-07-05 23:35:00 The flash heading is too busy and does your eyes in after a while.
A few other things

New Zealands should be New Zealand's

Also read your text out loud to see if your sentences flow and make sense.

eg: A land & past steeped in rich Maori history

Five minutes up the beach is naturist friendly area, if people do come up the beach they usually avoid other people. :confused:

Also I think there is too much detail in the home page

eg "We take a shovel to dig a hole and wallow for a while. This activity is its best on a summer night, with little or no wind blowing, a full moon, or not, a starry sky, or not."

"

I'm of the same opinion but the site looks good none the less. Hope it works out for you :thumbs:
