17th century collection
I'm working on an update of my collection of (mostly) 17th century material
about those who suffered for their beliefs during and after the Reformation. Comments on the contents are very welcome, of course, but there are only half a dozen or so additions since the last time I mentioned it here, and what I'm mainly inerested in is the web design. I'm compressing image files using Adobe Photoshop, as people suggested before, and I took up Denise Enck's suggestion to edit the pages using Macromedia Contribute (http://tinyurl.com/pjoe) and have found it works pretty well, apart from eating up a large amount of memory and slowing my system down (or even, occasionally, crashing it). I'm slowly deleting the old Microsoft Publisher html from my web pages, and building them up again using Contribute, and these pages are the first complete set. It all looks fine on my system, but I'd welcome comments from others, partly because tastes differ, but also because what looks fine on my (Japanese) system doesn't always come out right on other people's systems. The other thing is that I changed the URLs of the pages; Publisher assigned each page a URL (page 1, page 2, etc.), which was pretty inflexible for a site that grows organically (I don't know whether the next addition will be from Henry VIII's time or from the late 17th century, or from anywhere else in between). If anyone comes across any broken links, please let me know! Thanks! -- John http://rarebooksinjapan.com |

Thanks! -- John http://rarebooksinjapan.com Hi John, Looks fine to me. The page looks the same in IE6, Netscape 7.1, Opera 7.0 using Windows XP. If you'd like to see screen shots just let me know. I just ran your site through the link checker; the link to see results is below. It will take a while (several minutes!) for the results to display (it will check all the pages on your entire site again). http://validator.w3.org/checklink?ur...50&check=Check There are a few broken links; they're indicated in red. But, before deleting these from your site, double-check that they are really dead; there will usually be a few that are okay though marked in red. (This is due to the fact that the site's server may not have responded as quickly as the link checker expected it to, causing the link checker to give up.) Just email me (denise at quantawebdesign.com) if there's anything else I can help with. cheers ~ Denise |
