Hi all,

This is the first site for a client, did it for a friend.

ChipsAway - Clevedon, Portishead, Weston in Gordano, Walton in Gordano, Kingston Seymour

The following I need to fix:

Green border to phase in with the header instead of the blunt cut off.
Better picture in "Information"
Larger text for the small font
Move the Forms in "quote" so that you don't have to scroll.

I know its not perfect, I wanted it to be unique but stay with the ChipsAway brand. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Tim

I like it. I'm one for clear simple layouts! Perhaps you could do with filling the space out a bit more on the contact page? The form looks very squashed to the left. I would also make the "Work Request" box bigger as you will very quickly not be able to see what you have typed.

For example (dashes represent boxes):

First Name : Last Name:
----------------------------- ----------------------------
Address:
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
Postcode :
----------------------------
Home Tel: Work Tel:
---------------------------- ----------------------------
Work Request:
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
Email:
----------------------------------------------------------------


Don't seem to be able to use tabs but hopefully you get what I mean.

nice site. email link on Information page is mangled at the moment

Nice clean site and appealing to the eye.

I noticed that the email link on the information page needs correcting with a "mailto:" link - however it's probably not a good idea to publicise email addresses as spambots will pick them up. You could use the following tool to encrypt the email address, it's fairly straightforward to use:

I would say for a first site it shows excellent understanding of the fundamentals. Good stuff.

I'd advise to run your site through an HTML validator as it throws up a few errors:
Result for http://www.chipsawayclevedon.co.uk/ - W3C Markup Validator
Result for http://www.chipsawayclevedon.co.uk/quote.php - W3C Markup Validator
Result for http://www.chipsawayclevedon.co.uk/information.php - W3C Markup Validator

Most of the errors seem to do with out deprecated HTML code and missing alt tags. Once you sort out the validation & HTML code problems, the site should work just fine. You may also want to consider adding meta information to the site for search engines.

All the best - Edith

Hi Adam,

Many thanks, I have re-arranged the forms in the quote page, much appreciated, I have also enlarged the Work Request text box as you're right, it needs to be bigger. I do need to add more information in the Information page, just need some inspiration! It'll come.

Many thanks, all sorted!

You're right that was lazy of me and I bit carless, though I haven't heard of using Javascript to encrypt an email address. I've used your suggestion. Thanks!

Thank yoy Tyger, means a lot!

Ah, that was a little embarrassing, laziness again there I think. I have cleaned up most of my code using that, really does help because you miss some silly things out. I must say as I use a WYSIWYG editor which can cause sloppy html, though I don't use it due to lack of html knowledge but simpy to spped things up. <- There goes me being lazy again.

Meta information, totally slipped my mind thanks for that!

I really appreciate everyone's comments, sgguestions and feedback. Has really tidied the site up and given me more confidence! Thanks again.

I would just move your Last Name and Work Tel boxes back a bit to be right aligned with your address field?
