Andy's Rockets Help
Navigating this site
To the left you can find a menu. From this menu, you can select all of the subsections for the current page, as well as a few key global pages.
At the top of the main area of the page, are links to jump back up to higher level pages.
Unavailable links are 'greyed-out' and are not available. Available links should be highlighted in purple, although your browser may render these differently.
Standards
This website has been written with a few specific criteria, which are listed below, to ensure it is quickly and correctly rendered by any browser. If this website does not display properly for any reason, please report the problem, preferably giving details of the browser you are using.
- Every page within this site uses a single .html file which should pass the W3C XHTML1.0 validity checker with zero errors.
- Tables are for tables; not for style or layout. CSS is designed for styling and laying out a website cleanly.
- No framesets, with the possible exception of a single invisible frameset imposed by the domain hosting company. If this site appears within a frame, then the referring site has put this website inside one of its frames, presumably because it is desperate for you to return there.
- All links and menu items are text/html, with no java, javascript or images.
- Font sizes are never specified as fixed size, so it should always render visibly on any user agent and allow you to increase or decrease the text size without affecting the layout.
Known Problems
Sadly Microsoft refuses to cooperate properly with the CSS and HTML standards as specified by W3C, of which it is a member. Despite every page being 100% XHTML 1.0 compliant, and every stylesheet conforming to CSS 1.2, there are possibly some layout problems which affect Internet Explorer. I estimate that 50% of the development time for this website is spent trying to 'bodge' things to allow the page to render acceptably in Internet Explorer without adversely affecting the rendering in Mozilla Firefox and Opera. This is not acceptable! The priority is therefore to create content in a way that conforms to the standards.
