Default Building a Website.

Hello everyone,

I started work on my website today!

I bought myself a domain www.milotheclown.co.uk and a hosting account, and then I got stuck right in with building the site.

I’ve only got as far as the page layout so far, but I will work on it daily so keep checking for new stuff and let me have your thoughts/suggestions.

Love you all xoxo

Milo

Elegant for the most part. I like it!

Keep working at it!

I’m done playing with the website for the day!

I will obviously have photos, videos & references etc eventually.

There seems to be a glitch at the moment whereby apostrophes show up as either question marks or little squares – Mrs Milo has also just told me that the frames are wonky so the text boxes are not central in the blue bit and the clowns are covering the top writing?

Layout looks fine on my browser, are you guys getting the same thing? Anyone know how to fix the apostrophes?

I think once you get those little glitches fixed, it'll be great!

My dad's also finally trying to build a web site.

Good luck with yours!

The apostrophes are there because word, or frontpage, or something you used to write up the story turned your apostrophes into 'curly' quotes. It does this because it looks better in print. Some browsers won't display those right (like my firefox on windows, maybe some mac stuff...)

The frames being wonky is true also in Internet explorer 6.

lots of little tweaks. If you're using windows download firefox, safari for windows and internet explorer and test in each. if you're using mac you'll have to settle for firefox and safari (although IE is the most glitchy and needs the most testing) unless you want to make things really complicated.

Right I think I have sorted all those glitches out now.

The clowns should be either side of the title, the white text boxes should be central in the blue columns and all of those little squares should be gone.

Can anyone else see any layout problems at their end?

I really am done for the day now! This clown business is tiring me out and I haven’t even done one performance yet!

It looks correct to me now, with one difference; in Firefox the main text area has a blue background, in Internet Explorer 6 it is white.

Are you sure it’s not just Blue on the friends page? I haven’t put a white text box in there yet that’s all.
