Hi peeps, have just designed a site to sell my mothers handmade cards. Its 85% completed at the moment.

the url is http://www.debshandmadecards.co.uk

I still need to integrate the shopping cart and adjust the IE specific styleshet to match the rest of the site.

Please let me know what you think!

Thanks,

Chris.

1. happy it validates!!! 2.

1. happy it validates!!!

2. might want to consider using a STRICT DTD

3. not SEO friendly

4. your banner navigation should also be a list like your other nav.

5. May be using too many divs to get the job done. Consider styling the html tags themselves without divs.

6. The design leaves alot to be desired. Needs some work, but it is a good start!

First basic few steps in building a webpage
1. Gather and collect content.
2. Organize the content into meaningful semantic valid HTML
3. Design the prototype
4. Style using CSS

Hey thank you for taking the

Hey thank you for taking the time to look at my site, a few questions regarding your response though (just so i can understand more)

2. might want to consider using a STRICT DTD (XHTML 1.1 is as strict as they come)

3. not SEO friendly (can you please elaborate so I know where I am going wrong)

4. your banner navigation should also be a list like your other nav. (how come? is this for SEO purposes or to make it more semantic?)

6. The design leaves alot to be desired. Needs some work, but it is a good start! (any parts you think can be changed to make it look better?)

Thank You!
