| Posted 3 months ago Sorry, I use a plain text editor, mostly Textpad, sometimes notepad++, I have also used crimson editor. I like the formating of notepad++ best, it will draw a line between conneting parens, squigly braces which is a nice feature especially with Java. The thing i like about Textpad is that I can compile and run java without going to the comand line, something Notepadd++ lacks. I haven't used any WSYWIGs so if it is specific to the IDE I can't help. If it is an issue with HTML, CSS etc.... maybe I can help. So why dont you go ahead and post some questions? <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

| Posted 3 months ago Thanks for the response to my posting: If you use these methods of web development, my number one question is, what properties do you usual set for your tables/cells? Percent or Pixel. What is the best practice. Finally, please take a look at this site, http://www.orgtema.org, and give me your feedback. Thanks |

| Posted 3 months ago The first thing I noticed about the site is the slowness of the picture load. Here is what I see happening: One image is 1650px × 2550px (scaled to 179px × 214px) This is the image you are displaying, It is not good to ask the browser to rescale the image. I would actually resize the image to display to the (179px × 214px) this will also make the physical size smaller. This will reduce the size to about 24KB(much faster loading). store the full size image on the server, my prefference is in a folder called images and then when a visitor clicks on the image I would load the full size image if desired or another page as with one of your links. I like the site another thing is the animated gif for the conference it has 20 frames and I'm not sure that there needs to be that many (maybe someone else can comment on this) but again it is being scaled to fit which is also distorting the image beyond recognition. A great little free program that is simple to use is IrfanView, you can quickly resize an image and also keep the aspect ratio so it doesn't become distorted. On the issue of using percent vs. pixel: I prefer using percent: percent allows the tables to resize according to the size of the browser window pixel will make it the same no mater what the size of the browser window. Now on this note you may want to check the W3Schools website to see the current preffered method ("Standards"). the purpose of using percent is to adapt to mobile devices (smaller screens) and produce a readable page. I hope this helps. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I find It sad that there is a lack of replies to posts requesting tech help. I just mean that some questions are never answered and with a community this large you would think that someone would at least have a link to a tutorial, help page, forum or a book suggestion, Just food for thought here................. This is a community of tech people to help, support, and encourage each other. as it was designed........http://insidetech.monster.com/about I would hate to see InsideTech become just another "I had eggs for breakfast site" , I also enjoy posting and reading in the lighter non-tech groups to relive stress and in no way am I saying that they shouldn't be here. I approve of them and have fun with them. My hope is not to offend but rather to inspire a little compassion for helping solve tech issues in our community here. If you don't believe What I am saying just browse through the groups where people have asked tech questions and look at the replies or lack thereof. There are at least 1200+ smart, intelligent, members at Inside Tech. I just feel that it is a waste of time to come here and only post trivial drivel. But if that is your reason for coming here then that is good too! In no way am I saying that everyone or anyone should have to answer any questions. Thanks for reading
