Ok, so I'm building a site for someone, and I created a temporary website for him on my url for him to see what it looks like before he got his hosting.
But when I copied the code accross from my url to his new url one of the pages had a paddy and i really can't see why.
Can someone spot something missing in the code?

really really can't see why it does it :(. im sure it's just the not closing of a div, or something like that, any one see it?

Haven't looked in any detail, but I notice that one of them is in a /temp folder and the other isn't. Almost certainly that's the problem, it'll be a case of an absolute URL having been used for a CSS stylesheet path somewhere.

i found the top tab navigation on the images bit, moving down below the image on home/contact/about us etc not very intuitive. would be best if nav bar stayed at top as per images so can scroll accross all four tabs without taking mouse down screen.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/scripts/css/style.css" />

This is going to sound weird but I think it's because your /temp one *isn't* styled.

For some reason you're using an "root" path in your CSS link (paths starting with / go from the web root, without are relative), I think what you wanted is:
scripts/css/style.css
not:
/scripts/css/style.css

Now in the /temp/ one, the CSS file doesn't exist in the location you've specified, because squidgytriangles.co.uk/scripts/css/style.css doesn't exist, but in the new one, that file (solarfituk.com/scripts/css/style.css) does exist and so is being included in the document.

Maybe try correcting that on your /temp site and seeing if the same problem shows up.

Edit:


<link rel="stylesheet" href="/scripts/css/style.css" />that css isnt on squidgy triangles ....
It is, he's just using / in front of his path incorrectly - http://squidgytriangles.co.uk/temp/solarfit/scripts/css/style.css

I haven't time to look in detail, so just posted the differences using a debug proxy :)

I started using joomla, found kind of irritating really. Might want to know more though so that I have a broader knowledge base & can be more employable :D.

It wouldn't bother you as much if you were interested in the content of the page. But I do see where you're coming from, I just thought having a slideshow at the top of an images page wasn't really worth having. I don't know, it's something to think about for future anyway.
