Cleo - declined

Hi Cleo,
Just got http://www.real-uk-amateurs.com/euro-teen-orgy/
declined for page being too wide, they all look ok from here?
Thanks,
Jel

Cleo · 2005-01-04, 02:43 PM

I'm getting pages that are 813 pixels wide. You have them in a smaller table but its contents is making it wider.

Jel · 2005-01-04, 02:49 PM

Hi Cleo,
Which page(s) is it, the galleries?
I can't understand it

Thumbs are all 180, times 4 should be 720, allowing room in a 750 table.
Thanks,
Jel

Cleo · 2005-01-04, 02:55 PM

It is your text that is pushing the table too wide I think.

ClickBuster · 2005-01-04, 03:01 PM

Dude a quick tip for you. Don't spend all your time trying to figure it out. I checked your site, it is over 800px width in IE, looks OK in Firefox.

Just edint your <body> tag:

<body leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">

That should save you additional 15 px on each side - dafault left, right, top, bottom margin is 15px in IE and these tag properties are working on IE 4+, so I think it's OK

Jel · 2005-01-04, 03:03 PM

OK I just took out the width="25%" in all the tables inside the main outer table here:
http://www.real-uk-amateurs.com/euro...nightclub.html
And altered the text here:
http://www.real-uk-amateurs.com/euro...aving-sex.html
Can you check if either one has gone back inside at 800 res?
Thanks

Jel

Hi Clickbuster,
I'm using IE6 and it fits here? Just put that code in, thanks, gimme a sec to upload

Cleo · 2005-01-04, 03:19 PM

Since you already use CSS on your pages you could also remove the margins there.

This is what one of mine looks like.

body { color: white; font-size: 11px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, san-serif; background-color: black; background-image: url("backgound.jpg"); margin: 0; padding: 0

Either works fine.

Putting your ads inside of a one cell table with its width set and then nesting it inside of the cell of the table that is holding your pics helps in keeping the text from pushing the table too wide.

This is how I do it anyway.

I don't give the table or its cells a width and let the pics determine that tables width.

This is also why I use a nested table to hold my ad.

Jel · 2005-01-04, 03:32 PM

Now I'm gonna show myself up lol -

That CSS was from when I planned to learn it but never did, I ought to get rid of that altogether

I've nested a table inside that text cell, and included clickbusters code, so hopefully all looks ok now.
Out of interest what browser are you using? Obviously I don't want this to happen any more, it's created more work than either of us could have done with already

Cleo · 2005-01-04, 03:40 PM

I use Mac IE when I'm doing reviews and so does Cleo's Links other reviewer. Mac IE doesn't handle WMV files correctly about half the time so sometimes on movie sites I'll switch to Safari, but I like using IE for reviewing since it is not very forgiving of coding issues.

When I'm reading the board or just surfing I use Safari.

If I'm doing greek stuff or messing with code I'll usually use Mozilla.

I have bunch of other browsers on my drive but unless there is some reason to open them I never do.

Jel · 2005-01-04, 03:43 PM

Looks like I need a Mac then

Thanks for the help

ClickBuster · 2005-01-04, 03:51 PM

I wouldn't suggest a MAC tho

It's damn expensive. I would suggest buying a nice quick guide to CSS and HTML. Get used to work with more and more browsers. Making it work in Netscape 4.7 means it will look the same way in ANY other browser (at least these're the results of my personal observations). Whatsoever, I use generally Firefox and almost try to never launch IE, but it happens that oversized pages are showing up in IE, which is a little bit odd. Try to keep the width up to 760px MAX, adding 30px for margin and/or padding will give you a total of 790px width, which leave you with 10px to play with

Don't forget that putting a larget image (width 820px) will, nomatter the table settings, resize your table, but most probably you will notice this yourself.

I suggest you get yourself Firefox it has a great webmaster extension that have tons of useful options as - show image width, tables width, objects width, resize window to 800x600, etc.

Jel · 2005-01-04, 04:22 PM

Thanks for the info clickbuster. What was throwing me was that I use IE and it showed fine, pics add up to 720, table set at 750, text in a cell than spanned 2 pic cells, which here looked OK, as I say.
I was trying to get the most out of my thumbs without going over, hence the 4 x 180, think I'll keeep it at 4 x 170 next time I use that template to be on the safe side, and as Cleo said, nest a single table with width set inside the double text cell.
Not to mention keeping that code you supplied in the body tag

You live and learn....
