  1. Re: Human Life Value website -- hybrid: Xara (DPX 9), PHP, jquery, google visualizati

    The company does not sell insurance... The site isn't about selling, and isn't about persuading people to cherish family or adopt any particular behavior beyond becoming better informed about a topic...
  2. Re: Human Life Value website -- hybrid: Xara (DPX 9), PHP, jquery, google visualizati

    Thanks for the feedback...I think...

    The design elements evolved over time based on client direction, strong client preferences, numerous discussions and experiments with various themes and...

    Re: HTMLBlockText and line spacing

    Yes -- the size was a concern to me, and I hesitated until we had done some serious testing on the page to make sure it was overly heavy or slow.

    Re: copy / paste -- also understood, and I, for...

    Re: HTMLBlockText and line spacing

    Frank - on the site I just finished, the FAQ page has about 20 (or more) paragraphs, each of which represented an FAQ question. I made use of Acorn's jquery (thanks SO much) to properly highlight...
  5. Human Life Value website -- hybrid: Xara (DPX 9), PHP, jquery, google visualizations

    This project started to be a simple cloning of a single page of an old site that a client wanted to move to its own URL with some additional info. The old site appeared to be very straightforward (if...

    Re: Wrapped text links do not highlight properly

    ...and, btw, yes - jQuery is certainly a powerful tool. I've been learning more and more, and must admit my eyes bugged out between all the different ways you can specify element selectors, and all...

    Re: Wrapped text links do not highlight properly

    Nice! I was about to post that I had found the issue! My first clue was that, in Chrome, I could drag down with the mouse, and it would highlight the bounding box of the text item -- and that's where...

    Re: Wrapped text links do not highlight properly

    While hoping one of you may have a clue, I'm trying to poke deeper to see if anything jumps out at me. Using Chrome's "display element" capabilities, I can see a bunch of page elements with style...

    Re: Wrapped text links do not highlight properly

    Not sure if this will offer any clues to those with deeper web knowledge, but W3.org code validator sees two errors (and a different issue if page interpreted as HTML5 -- there's a dropdown on the...

    Re: Wrapped text links do not highlight properly

    Hi Acorn - thanks - your comment reminded me that many of the "issues" I've had in the past were due to layer ordering, and were fixed by rearranging. But if I'm not mistaken, the MouseOver and...

    Re: Wrapped text links do not highlight properly

    Acorn, sledger -

    Acorn's approach worked -- as long as I had a single large block of text on the page, with each paragraph highlighted and assigned a separate popup layer on the same page. I...
  12. Re: web page jumps few pixels from left to right after loading - is it fixable?

    I *am* seeing the "twitching" -- in Chrome, Firefox and IE. Same issue in all 3, and on all pages- appears that the page loads and display, and then jogs right a bit. Versions:
    - Chrome 30.0.1599.22...
  13. Re: Coorindates and size of objects change when I don't want them to...

    I suspect your assessment is correct Acorn. I wound up clicking inside each item, e.g., each shadow group, and selecting the rectangles and manually setting their widths and x-coordinates the same,...
  14. Coorindates and size of objects change when I don't want them to...

    I've run into something a bit frustrating that may be due to the way I'm using Designer Pro. I'd love some perspective from others who may know the right answer here. This has to do with untouched...
  15. Re: trying to publish from Xara Web designer 9 Premium to godaddy.com

    One variable to consider is whether you have a single site associated with the account, or multiple -- and what level in the file hierarchy is set as the default when the FTP client logs into...
  16. Re: Option: "do not divide hyperlinks with word wrap"

    Excellent - really. The site I'm currently building for a client is still in flux, but you can see where I applied Acorn's tweak on this page (please ignore items such as color pallette consistency,...
  17. Re: Option: "do not divide hyperlinks with word wrap"

    Success! =D> I took the liberty of copying your jquery code into the header section of a placeholder on my page (functionally identical, I guess, to your Pin - just like to pry into solutions like...
  18. Re: Option: "do not divide hyperlinks with word wrap"

    Thanks Acorn -- I'll check this out.
  19. Re: Option: "do not divide hyperlinks with word wrap"

    It really is a hideous workaround for all the classic reasons:
    - screws up SEO, and you'll wind up with search links that point to the embedded pages rather than the parent page
    - the embedded page...
  20. Re: Option: "do not divide hyperlinks with word wrap"

    I understand the rationale, but it would help tremendously if we had a choice. I'd think that something working somewhat like HTMLBlockText could be implemented for this. I obviously can't speak for...

    Re: hiding google analytics code from website

    I just exercised that new input field in Web Properties / Analytics for the first time, adding my client's google tracking code. Checking the web page source code after export, it appears that the...
  22. Re: Option: "do not divide hyperlinks with word wrap"

    Agreed -- this would be such an incredibly useful option -- and one that would help me tremendously if it were available today. In my case, I've put together a page with 20 FAQ items for a client,...

    Hi again -- looks like I'll need to use this technique after all on the FAQ page for my current project -- many "Questions" that span more than a single line of text, and the whole thing must...

    Re: Wrapped text links do not highlight properly

    Hi guys - I just had to revive this thread, as sledger's technique has opened a whole new world of capabilities that I can "inject" into my Xara-based websites. I'm absurdly excited right now, as...
  25. Re: Examples of a new style of Web Design for consideration.

    Good discussion... "triplagent" seems to be offline now -- could only get it via Google cache. Inky seems to be a pretty typical example of so many of the flat sites I'm seeing recently. DesignZoom...
