You have already received critiques for this exact same page.
If this isn't your page, it must be a template.

Just a suggestion, but if you keep posting the same tired crap (or OTHER'S
tired crap) again and again, people will wise up and ignore you.

So experimental, it's confusing.

If you want sales - Don't confuse.

Is as simple as that :~)

It's just as bad :~(

Why are you *forcing* people to twist their heads to read the menu, and also
forcing them to wear specs to read the fine text.

....nor does it work in Konqueror. Any time one needs a
sentence that explanes how to use the navigation,
they're somewhere in the neitherworld between
'click here' buttons and mystery meat navigation.

Actually, it did eventually work in Konqueror.
It was just so slow to finish downloading that it
wouldn't work for the first half minute or so.

and it does ;o)

first checked in usual browser with everthing switch off. you don't need me
to tell you it's fairly minimal in that environment.

prompted by the other replies in this thread, I took a wee look using Opera
with everything switched on. I love it, it would make a lousy web site, but
I love it.

Let me know when you get the completed accessible version - if you ever do -
I imagine there's a shed-load of work there.

Looks like the expreminent failed.

Absolute positioning and negative margins is *not* the way to center things
on the canvas.

So? Why would you want to unless you are thinking of desktop publishing?

A web page starts here and extends down to
|
|
|
|
v here.

It might also extend over to ---------------------> here.

Where is it's "centre"?.

Here is another shot of your page:
http://users.bigpond.net.au/rf/test/centred.jpg

What a waste of space above and below the "centred" content. And what about
the content I cannot see? I make my canvas as big or as small as I want, to
see the content of a page as I feel like at the moment. Your page fails.

You are confusing the terms "page" and "viewport". You are trying to code to
the "viewport". This fails. you should code to the "page" and forget all
about those negative margins you have in there which, basically, don't work
unless my canvas is exactly the same as yours, which it is not.

Cheers
Richard.

Glad I came in here today -- I learned a new word from above 'expreminent'
....wow! maybe someone meant 'excrement'?
....anyway, most of the Oz brain is in my hometown tonite, playing music as
only he can -- Tommy Emmanuel!!
