Have a look at my new site i designed for a guy called Tim Wescott

http://www.timwescott.com

A chap called Mark Mills had taken a look at my site earlier today. Even after i had fixed the problems there was one problem i couldn't fix for some people it seems.

It turns out text alignment still seems to be centered for some people i.e. See Mark Mills screen shot below;

This was a problem i thought i had fixed. When i noticed it i surrounded all the bio page, contact page and all the articles with

<div align="left"> </div>

That tag aligned all my text to the left. I even checked it out in all browsers both on XP and VISTA using explorer, FireFox and Safari and it worked for me.

I see this:

I would be curious to know how many of you see what Mark Mills sees when you browse through Tim's Website and how many of you see what i see?

Do some browsers depending on which version it is not recognise the
<div align="left"> </div> command?

I cant find that page you have up there, but anything i see, as far as worded content is in the center. Try not to use


<div align="left"> </div>


instead try

<div style="text-align:left;"> </div>

It works cross browser. Hope this helps a little.

Here is the screen i'm talking about:

Thanks for the code. I'll give it a try.

It is shifted to the left for me. I would still try to use the text-align, or float:left;

Looks good, I wouldn't put myspace on there if your going to use it as a business or as a serious project, and remove the myspace gallery and put your own in there. Just my 2 cents.

Why not myspace?

And why remove the myspace gallery?

Thanks

Well, myspace has quite a few problems... alot of the time. I think its more of a personal taste that they mean. you could easily find scripts or free applications to include on your own site for a pic gallery. It's up to you though.

Because it makes it look like a personal site. Adding myspace is unprofessional for any website. That's like if Ebay had a bunch of myspace things on their site. Like view my myspace for more information!

It's just my opinion and you can do as you wish. Just trying to help.
