I must be blind because I never saw this part of the css forum before Puzzled

Okay, this afternoon I published the new Bushwhacker Climbing Club site. Please advise.

When I validate it passes, but I get an error,
Character Encoding mismatch! I gotta figure that out still.

Thanks in advance,
Doxey

I see no problem with the character set. It is utf-8, so be sure that if your editor is actually using utf-8, it doesn't prepend the document with a BOM (Byte Order Mark). It's unnecessary for utf-8 and it throws IE into quirks mode.

Everything looks good, except for the nav column. I really hate for links to change size when hovered. It causes the column to twitch. Stick with a color change or adding an underscore.

You might add a photo or two to each page showing members doing the things members do. It's a club site, make it personal.

cheers,

gary

Gary, thanks much. Yup, I ripped the size change on hover. Better this way I agree.

And yeah, the site needs photos - comin' up!

Any other input?

I think separating the content background color from the body background color might make it stand out a little more.

This is my big chance . . . yep, I blew it . . .

my only suggestion would for it to be seperated from the background. Either a border or a different background color on your content.

looks good other then that.
