On what page are they moving? Can you say, carefully and concisely,
how they are moving and what it is that you don’t like about that? I
haven’t noticed a problem with pictures moving myself.

Ok:
if you go to the 4 rooms, infant, toddler, pre, school
the pictures on the left are showing up high - sometimes under the
“roots to wings” I have them aligned on the page w the title of staff.
also, the names in the infant room, when rolled over they show high -
but in the file, i have aligned them w Miss Dorall.
why does this happen and how do I fix it.
Thank you .

The -home- page does not validate (Did not check the others) because you made some mistake in setting up the setupZoom() script.
Choose in your FW document: page (from the menu)–>extended–> Name: onload and -->Value: setupZoom()
(write just onload and setupZoom() in the fields, nothing else)
Because now in the source it says:
And, please, I’m kindof colourblind, the yellow with white text rollover makes me click away the page. (sorry…)

I can’t really say, as I don’t know how you made it. If you want to
zip the site up and send it to me, I’ll be glad to have a look.

One other point about this. If you find that a JavaScript effect is
not working (particularly anything Prototype-driven like the fades and
other FX Actions) then your first debugging step should be to validate
your page. Prototype requires that you start from a “known good” base,
because it does things “by the book” internally. Other JavaScript
libraries most likely have this requirement, too.

You best can check it yourselve by pasting the URL in http://validator.w3.org/ It’s often impossible to say anything about the why of errors without looking at the FW document.

Thanks! I know - fat fingers I say LOL
Keith,
I put up grids and “snapped” i think… unsure…
I feel better about it… But I think the “flow” is something that will
come with practice practice practice…
Thank you for that help…w the grids… I had some issues but what I
did was made a small grid (20 px) and used that to snap too.
What do you think?
J
can you help me with the other problem I posted yesterday please?
thx

You’re unsure whether you snapped or not? Well, are things aligned to
the grid as they should be? It sounds as though you don’t understand
the concept of alignment.

The show/hide on Child and Adult Care Food Program is also a mess - if you really want to do it that way put a border on the box and give it a subtle background colour to lift it off the page.
Better but the text is right to the edge of the box (add padding to keep it inside) and there is no border and paragraph spacing. It just looks jammed in.
Subtle background colour? - remember if you have green text on a green background it isn’t going to be easily read. It may only be one character “T” but there are other places on the site where there are poor colour choices.

Doesn’t look any different. It needs some padding, as Dave said. Text
jammed up against the edges.

Actually, why not just get rid of the pop-up altogether? There’s
plenty of room on the page for that green box to be visible all the
time; it’d help to fill up all that space.
