Script's my son made.

Works on the same principle as you want, but uses php to do it.

He could probably do a mashup for you, if i asked him nicely

Example of output:

Well my first website project is almost complete

When its up and running I'll put a link here (as long as the owner doesnt mind of course!)

Everyone else who was interested seems to have gone quiet on me?

Anyone out there still wanting a site?

Be quick though - I cant offer freebies forever

If any of you have been considering taking up Mrs Jackaroo's offer, DO IT NOW - she is now looking for a new project as she has finished building my website for me, so send her a PM.

You just need to know what you want it to look like and your content and Mrs J will do all the hard work building the site. She is a dream to work with, very tolerant and enthusiastic. I would recommend you take her up on her offer now as she will soon be turning this into her business and that means it'll cost you $



Thanks Rach

Well my first project is now live

www.brisbanebritsrentals.com

I really enjoyed doing this as it was definitely good practice!

Its pretty basic (which was how Gill wanted it) but I'm pleased with it

Sorry but the freebies are now no longer - I've got a few projects on the go now and am struggling a bit to keep up with them all now that I'm back at TAFE full time.

Good looking site there.

I'd recommend checking out the site below, downloading the resource files (a HTML & a CSS file) and deconstructing them to find out just how powerful CSS can be when designing a site.

http://www.csszengarden.com/

Using CSS is a great way to separate the design from the content. it can also help to make it easier for the Search Engines to find the content.

The site above was a great way for me to slim down email AD's for a few clients. i was usually able to reduce the email size by at least 50% by using CSS instead of tables. Even in this broadband world we have now, people are still soooo impatient when waiting for a site to load.

Keep up the good work.

Darren

Thanks for that Darren. Yep CSS is definitely very very useful. I'm starting to get better with it but I'm only 6 months into my course so it takes time.

This is the site I've put together now for TAFE http://www.richmondit.com.au/rach which I think is starting to get closer to my goal At the moment we've only worked with incorporating CSS within tables but I'm pushing to get them onto divs asap. I can code divs.....but using divs in Dreamweaver at the moment is proving a bit harder - I'll get there though

Thanks again

Rach

Not a big issue Rach but the rollovers on the above site don't work correctly in Safari on the Mac. I know it's only got about 5% market share compared to 75% for IE, but hey, I'm a Mac using and we have to fight our corner
