rcoda Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 Thanks, Wim. After reading your article, I had to pop in "Days of Future Passed" by the Moody Blues and enjoy THIS day. Rich www.rcodaphotography.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tedharris Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 Wim, I admit I skimmed the words but I closely followed the images. You capture the magic of light and color so well. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis_jordan Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 There are problems with HTML programming. At least on my screen, viewed with Netscape 4.7, portion of text is superimposed on the pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob. Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 The author has used MSHTML and shock, horror, suprise... Microsoft have gone their own way and used non-standard constructs only understood by Internet Exporer. So if you use Netscape/Mozilla, Opera etc, tuff...

tedharris Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 Bob I use Camino, a Mozilla product for the Mac that is in Beta and I ahve no problem with superimposed text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob. Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 Interesting - looks like the Mozilla people are addressing MS "extensions" to HTML. Wonder if they can keep up as MS adds more... (actually, to be fair, I think MS is mainly using XML to extend HTML which *is* a standard way of doing things) - trouble is, no one else has Microsoft's budget and quantity of programmers to spend on keeping up with them now Netscape is effectively dead.

bob. Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 P.S. I just downloaded the latest Mozilla from www.mozilla.org and that has no problems either.... Looks like you need to upgrade Ellis. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul moshay Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 I use Camino and it worked perfectly to read and view this beautiful and wisely written website. I wish I could study with such an inspiring person. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wim_van_velzen Posted July 1, 2003 Author Share Posted July 1, 2003 Wow, <p> Thank you all for your compliments!<br /> <p> RE: HTML. I use XHTML with CSS. No microsoft wizardry here. Older netscape versions have/are (;-) a problem though. The newer ones seem to be OK. <p> <a href="http://www.fotografiewimvanvelzen.nl">Wim</a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott_walton2 Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Very nicely done Wim! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob. Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Wim - the header of the page says MSHTML 6.00, which was why I assumed MSHTML was employed in its creation... Anyway, all this is academic as it is obviously perfectly readable with any current reader. Oh, did I say it is an interesting read too?... It is....

wim_van_velzen Posted July 1, 2003 Author Share Posted July 1, 2003 Bob, <p> You are right - I use MS Frontpage for spelling check. For the rest I work entirely in Notepad. <p> BTW: Keith Laban checks my English, as Dutch is my native language. Many thanks to him! <p> <a href="http://www.fotografiewimvanvelzen.nl">Wim</a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike sisk Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 It looks fine on a Mac with Safari, but I do see an error in the xhtml. The ?xml and !DOCTYPE tags are at the top of the body section, but they need to be at the top of the document before the html tag to be valid. This might be missing up some browsers. The XHTML validation service at http://validator.w3.org/ is handy for debugging these sorts of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wim_van_velzen Posted July 1, 2003 Author Share Posted July 1, 2003 Hi Mike, <p> Thanks for pointing this out. It is one of the frontpage 2000 ideosyncraties - it throws this doctype declaration between head and body. It should be repaired now. <p> Maybe I'd better never use frontpage again and use Word in stead. <p> Wim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis_jordan Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Hey guys, The pages in question contain SIMPLE layout of text and pictures, which should have been easy to program with the simplest version of basic HTML. Who cares about cascade sheets, MSsomething, Xsomething, plug ins and other non-standard, propriatary UPGRADES (so that the pockets of the programmers are kept always full of gold)? I don�t. Remember, there is MORE info on the internet that anybody can read without a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wim_van_velzen Posted July 2, 2003 Author Share Posted July 2, 2003 The code is quite simple indeed. But as my site has hundreds of pages, I like CSS very much. It really helps to keep everything within the same look. You are right about most other things - but how many people use an older non-CSS-able browzer? Why don't they upgrade; it is easy enough.
