Does this site work for anyone?

this site:

http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/phil.bradshaw/car_wiring.htm

sounds bloody useful but the writing goes off the side of the screen by a few inches and there is no scroll bar to wind it across. Anyone know what setting you have to change to make it work? to read the script you can do right click/ view source, just a bit of an arse sifting thru the html tags...

i think its the table at the top thats bummed it....

goes off the screen on my 17" tft, 1280x1024. Bad web design i'd say.

i can save the source to notepad, and maybe remove the table, but does anyone know how to view it as a web page once it is modified? cant get IE to open it properly, just leaves it as a marked-up script...

all his other pages work so i guess its an oversite!!

Joel,

Its the way he's specified the widths of the cells in the table - he's used a mix of %'s and fixed pixel widths - bad news.

I've doctored and saved it, just trying to work out the best way of posting it for you!

thanks Go! is it small enough to email? someone should tell the poor chap his site is awry, i saved that link bloody ages ago and no ones told him yet!!!

ps i've saved a copy of the script without the table, how can i view it as a page again? wouldnt believe i did my degree project on designing a web page would you!!!!

JoelP - 18/11/03 at 02:06 PM

nice one timf, how did you attach it? I tried uploading to photo archive but it only lets you upload files with image file extensions (jpg, gif, etc).

nice, cant miss it really can you!

The original site works perfectly in mozilla.. though I see what you are on about, in IE it's all kinds of screwed


VinceGledhill - 18/11/03 at 04:52 PM

Doesn't work on mine.

21" 1200 x 1600.

Even on a resolution of 1792 x 1344 it still doesn't fit in I.E.


JoelP - 18/11/03 at 05:27 PM

an unfortunate oversite seeing as the site has some very useful pointers! Ah well, all sorted now!!

Is this the correct bit of the site which this thread was looking for?

https://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?action=attachment&tid=8749&pid=67352

Or is there a better wiring resource?

Anyone know of a site which will allow me to draw my own diagram?
