I’ve just finished the brand new Legacy XS site. New features added since the last update include a gallery, video content and forums section.

Design wise, initially there was some trouble with ie6 not displaying floated divs as they should be, but overall, not too many problems to speak of (I must be learning!)

I wanted to bring the XS site up to date, and needed to integrate some new features. Forum integration was relatively painless; phpbb makes things pretty simple. Another main addition is the video content which is run from our server, rather than youtube/myspace or wherever. For some reason Dreamweaver’s additional Flash code makes the site not validate, but hey ho.

Also added in a new gallery with upload feature. The uploads get screened by me, just in case anything not appropriate gets posted.

That’s about it really. As I said, relatively quick and painless process this time. Check out my other sites at www.faciodesign.co.uk/web_design.html

As owner of Facio Design, I’m often frustrated at IE6 and it’s peek-a-boo bug. For some unknown reason when a liquid div (ie one that you want to expand with content) has a floated div inside, and then content that appears along side that floated, ie6 has difficulty in displaying it (surely this is one of the more common uses of css and divs?) My main problem is with content being duplicated below the div.

I found a solution to this problem here http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer/peekaboo.html but even that hasn’t been able to solve it fully.

Things I’ve tried include position: absolute, position: relative, giving the div a min-height,

So I’m wondering if anyone else has this problem.

And in the mean time, I’m begging everyone to please download a free copy of Firefox and lets get rid of ie for good
