PureBasic Forums - English

Thanks. Do you mean when the search results expand and push the page content down ?
If that's what you mean, I'm aware of it & working on a fix !

i see the end in the middle

I get this:



Hmmm... did you pick some free blog software? Looks like a frame issue!
All the text appears outside the blue box! (IE8 latest)

Loks good though!

I had the same problem like rook (Opera 9.64) if I hit the "about" page. However, the other pages are fine.

I didn't see anytthing on any of the other pages... looking again!

Same issue in Firefox and Google Chrome.

The About screens in the other sections work though.

Nope - all hand coded in notepad using CSS / HTML - and thanks for the compliment ! It appears to be fixed now - at least viewing from
my computer (Opera, FireFox,Sea Monkey & IE). Will you all please recheck and confirm ? The issue with the search results pushing the
page content down is still present, but when you click the 'X' button in the search box it returns to normal. I guess I'll find another search
engine to use on the site other than Google's 'Custom Search' as this seems to be the cause.

Some serious formatting issues on that page. But I do like the idea of a PB Magazine. It is long overdue.

I'm working on a redesign of the site now. Colors / graphics are the same, but the menuing system & layout issues are improved greatly. I should have the redesiged site up and running by the end of the weekend. It seems to work perfectly with SeaMonkey, Firefox, Opera & Chrome. Internet Explorer tends to break a lot of sites that work in all of the above browsers and I recommend the use of one of the browsers above. Never used Safari either.

Good luck with your project. I can tell you from personal experience (I've written mags for 2 languages one at a time in the past) that its not easy and it'll be hard to find others to help provide good content when you need it. Your going to be worked off your fingers to do this properly especially for multiple languages.

After looking at your site i can suggest a couple of things.

1. you need to remind people what area they are in..
2. in (ALL of) your articles you should add
2a. include the language and version there of that the article was using . eg: Purebasic 4.4
2b. date (and time .. if multiple inputs into article) of article publication
2c. Author of Article
2d. Thanks to anywhere / anyone who helped write the article
2e. ALWAYS test any code that your publishing.. and use <pre></pre> or <code></code> to enclose any code for prople to copy / paste
2f. ALWAYS use lots of comments commenting even what you think is obvous.. remembering that there are those out there that know absolutly nothing
2g. include any code and dor resources in a zip file for those who don't want to or have problems copying code
2h. Include screenshots and or output block with results ecpected from the example
3. in acknowledgements section at end of article , state where you got your info from.. eg: , books,forums, people etc...

Hope this works out for you again all the best

Major redesign for the site completed. Theme is the same ( color scheme / graphics ) , but different layout.
Navigation / Menu system completely redesigned from the ground up with ease of use and greater functionality
in mind. More modern look with rounded corners - and hopefully an end to the display problems the old design
was having. I recommend that you view the site with a minimum screen resolution of 1024 x 768 and that you
use Google Chrome, Firefox, SeaMonkey or Opera browser. Should look fine in Safari too, but IE mangles the
menu a bit.



EDIT: Here's a Screenshot

The new design now works fine in Opera Good job!

thank you for the good project
good choice for the regular expressions subject.
i suggest also a graphics & plotting subjects
also may be you can put the articles in a doc format or pdf for the download.
regards

I was in the hospital for a while, but now I'm back. The PB Magazine site will be going back up
soon on a new server and with new content. Glad to be back !
