Completed Website

Back again,

just a question or two.

Mammalian - will i need to install xampp as i googled it and it seems to have some stuff that looked familier, the hosting i have has is running cPanel X is that the same kinda of thing.

i did manage to get the include command working although my CSS seems to get a bit messed up, but i will keep at it and try and get my head around it. I dont have anything i can show you at the moment tomorrow may bring something.

may be i am getting confused with the process of how this php works.

for example when i was using the iFrame, the menu was coded like this :

Code: 
<ul>
<li>
<h2>Home</h2>
<ul>
<li>
<a target="iframespace" title="...did you get lost" href="/htm_files/eng/home.htm">Frontpage</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

For the PHP how do i target the html/php file to the Div tag i want it to display in?

i sort of half understand how it works from using the code you provided, will work on it more tomorrow.

thanks

Tim
 
I think it could do with a nicer font for the text, just seems a bit boring but thats only my opinion :)

Other than that, the design is nice!
 
Ok, been working on the site today and i may of had an eureka moment where things just started to work and i think i sort of understand the process now.

I have built a test site HERE a couple of things first though. I know the menu overlaps, it's just a temp menu, and also when you click page 1 or 2 the BG image changes this is due to the CSS getting messed up.

Code:

Code: 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-2" />
<link href="/css/Kanemi.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="/css/drop_down_menu.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

</head>

<body>
<div id="container">

<div id="mainTXT">
<?
switch ($_GET['page']) 
{
case "main": include 'home_test.php'; break;
case "2": include 'about_art.php'; break;
case "3": include 'about_photography.php'; break;


default: include 'home_test.php'; break;

}
?>
</div>

<div id="menu">

<ul>
<li>
<h2>MENU</h2>
<li><a href="index.php?page=main">page1</a></li>
<li><a href="index.php?page=2">page2</a></li>
<li><a href="index.php?page=3">page3</a></li>
</li>
</ul>

</div>

</div>
</body>
</html>

so if i am correct becuase i have nearly 28 html/php pages in my site all i need to do is add them into the list in the "mainTXT" div and then link to them?

cheers

if im reading you right, then yes :)

why isn't your background image displaying when viewing page=2 and 3? seems odd if you are doing what you have written above for it to be any different.

I think it inherits the CSS file that is in the other 2 pages so it changes the main page from what i can figure out, i will look more into tomorrow.

Ok, I have just put up the new PHP version of the website now so hopefully people whould be able to view it correctly.

more comments are welcome, i have already made a list of some of some of the feedback and will start to implement them into the site.

Mammalian & Eulogy - Thanks for the showing me the php way of doing it.

and cheers to all the others so far who have left me some feedback.

now off to sort out the Japanese side of the site.

quick look seems to be working. only thing i would quickly change is the home button, make it so that when the home is clicked it takes you to homepage and not display alink saying frontpage

eduit: also if you know what the font for the pictures is i would change all the font to that so it is all the same, that is of course if it is different, for me using firefox 3 it looks different any ways.

bit of a late thanks but thanks for guiding me on getting sorted in php. The font i use in the picture do you mean on the frontpage slideshow? as i am sure its Arial which i use on the other text on the site. A few others have mentioned the font not being too great, i might have a little play around with different fonts see what they look like. I will also maybe adresss some of the other stuff people have mentioned.

Thanks
