Can anyone tell me why the home page had dropped by approx. 10 px?

There is a lot of stuff there to sort through, Graham. If I set the *
position* of item1c to absolute, it fixes the shift on that page but
does not explain why as you clearly have the same item on similar pages
that aren’t shifted. I would suspect the complexity of your page
construction – both divs and tables to position content, unnecessary
duplicate items, lots of floats and relative positioning, is all affecting
it somehow. What the final straw that breaks it’s back is, I can’t easily
work out. Sorry.

Still trying to unwrap the code, but I already see duplicates of several DIV’s from the header. just look for the text ‘don’t miss out’ in the code, and you’ll see that the DIV is shown twice.

What a bunch of code by the way … wow. Talking about finding a needle …

Yeah, that one stands out as it is physically near the top of the page, but
look at other pages which aren’t shifted and you find the same elements, so
I can’t easily explain why the index is shifted exactly 12px. Like finding
a needle in a needlestack

Thanks guys. Can you spare a few moments to tell me how I could have built this better?

Hi Graham,
first of all:
Pretty nice page - well designed - so nothin’ wrong with it.
Buuuuut:
Rename your item1b1a (as example) to meaningful expressions. That would be start. Doing this you’ll automagic stumble upon the duplicates:
e.g. “item1a2” is exact the same than “item1a2a”.
So avoid “duplicates” and “unneeded or empty divs”.
Try to remove that table stuff with your socialites. I think there is no need to hold them in a table (or keep it if you have any reason for it).
Cheers

Hi Thomas. Thanks for the advice. I understand the duplicates - not sure how they got there in the first place!
I have used layers to achieve the slide show - will it work in a div?
“Try to remove that table stuff with your socialites.” Sorry, I don’t understand - can you explain?
Many thanks.

This may happen by reapplying the child to the master-page, such as force republish, and one element had been part of the master and as well part of the child page.

Which is up to my understanding exactly correct.
“Try to remove that table stuff with your socialites.” Sorry, I don’t understand - can you explain?
That’s a point I often do not know how people accomplish “unwanted tables”. Fact is, that there is a “table” in your source code so:
One theory:
CSS Button off during the construction time of that part of the page by accident.
Second theory:
A lot of graphic features using inspector such as shadows, rounded corners and stuff which finally Freeway forces to display all this as tables.
As I said:
I think you did a really good job so there isn’t that much you should think about.
Cheers
