Site using GetSimple - Fionnan - 2011-07-28

I did this for my wife a few weeks ago. There's still some bits and pieces to do to it but she's happy so far.
Thanks to N00dles for all the help!

Hi Fionnan,

don't take me wrong, the intention of the site is good! I know that ;=)

I think the fonts-size is too big, you waste a lot of space with little content on the startpage
The links in the linklist are not clickable

The recipes are different to find, maybe one recipe / one page? You can set these as sub-pages of the recipes-mainpage

Did you copy an existing website as template? The header directives are not quite ok:

The site is in ISO-8850-1, but GS is UTF-8, so you might run into troubles with characters

some quite problematic errors in HTML-validating:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.theskinnypages.com%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&ss=1&group=0&verbose=1&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.2

do you use facebook-code in your page?
Code:
<meta property="fb:app_id" content="167527609946477" />
what for?

The site is defined as
Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
but it should be a doctype for XHTML, like this f.e.:

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

There are some CSS errors as well:

Cheers, Connie

Thanks Connie.
I know the site is full of problems but its a work in progress!
Unfortunately, I don't have a whole lot of time lately with a new job but I'm hoping to fix up a lot of it over the weekend.
It is copied from another template, hence a lot of dud code!!

I was under pressure to get something online and quick though!

Thanks for the advice though, I'll hopefully get it cleared up this weekend.
