My Periodic " What Say You " Post - Please Ct... - 1/25/2007 22:25:35
http://www.StartRemodeling.com
Can I have you cross check in Firefox ( different versions ) etc.
Just worked my tail off to eliminate some pretty solid errors, tried to "un Busy" the site a bit.
Suggestions? And please feel free to critique my new "mascot" My attempt at giving the site a little personality.
Thanks in Advance Y'All

Looks OK on the Mac. The mascot makes all the difference. It draws your eye and it breaks up the page.
Thanks.

I chuckled when I looked at the site - we have seen it many times and you always get beat up a little for 'cluttered' - the reason I chuckled thou is that, to me, the mascot really works - somehow he emphasizes the sections and makes it more organized when you look at it - I think it works great - good job

you have some missing alt text on some of your text-as-images e.g. 'black mold solutions' in the header

Those are hot spots on an image.
How do I add the alt text to it?
Or can I?
Or just add one alt text to the image itself?
I just added the alt text to the entire image.
Seems to have done the job - methinks
Unless of course there is a better way!

There is an alt text on the image but you also need one on each of the hotspots. The code for the hotspots is
<map name="FPMap0_I1">
<area target="_top" href="mold_solutions.htm" shape="rect" coords="15, 0, 109, 36">
<area target="_top" href="we_buy_homes.htm" shape="rect" coords="123, 0, 245, 36">
<area target="_top" href="free_contractor_search.htm" shape="rect" coords="257, 0, 361, 36">
<area target="_top" href="refinance/index.htm" shape="rect" coords="374, 0, 498, 36">
<area target="_top" href="solutions/store/index.html" shape="rect" coords="510, 0, 610, 36">
</map>
The alt text goes on each area
<map name="FPMap0_I1">
<area target="_top" href="mold_solutions.htm" alt="Black Mold Solutions" shape="rect" coords="15, 0, 109, 36">
I'd change the alt for the image to read alt="Image map with hot spots" then have the individual details on each area.

Thank you for pointing that out.
It was an iissue with me when I changed that nav bar from links to the image and Jaybee helped me solve it.
Learn something new all of the time.
That's what makes this forum so worthwhile.
