World Foods web page is officially up. If you like it let me know, if not, let me know what I can do better.

Looks good, I'd like to go there! It's that near New Century & Game Depot if I'm not mistaken, looking at the map?
Chuck - 9/02/2006 10:19:00 AM
Yeah, it's right between them.

They need to have you post more pictures of the menu items. I want to know what a Shawarma sandwich, or a Tira Mi Su, looks like.

Make the menu section headings bold.
Thank you.
Chuck - 9/06/2006 11:27:00 AM
They are bold, unless your talking about specific menu items.

Something's not coming across quite right in Firefox and Safari on the Mac then. Things don't look too orderly.
Are you using some IE specific thing?
yoink.
Chuck - 9/06/2006 09:40:00 PM
IE specific? That's insulting. No, it's all basic code. I opened it up in Opera and I have an indentation that doesn't close, but it looks good in IE and Firefox. You use a WYSIWYG editor don't you, I'm thinking... Dreamweaver.
Chuck - 9/06/2006 10:10:00 PM
I fixed indention problem in Opera, but I don't think that's going to fix your viewing issues.
I think that your browser(s) don't accept the align attributes for images - that more than anything would make the page disorderly. Hopefully they take the b and /b tags! I can't figure why the bold menu headings aren't coming in. Feel free to check the code.
Did I tell you I'm in Stapor's class again?
Matt - 9/07/2006 07:02:00 AM
Good God, man! What a way to welcome yourself back to the University.
I've had two semesters of Geology since Stapor. I'm done with that stuff.
I have no more easy classes, and it really bothers me.
Use http://browsershots.org to check what I'm seeing.
And talk about insulting! Me, use a WYSIWYG!? Pure code, no tables. I need nothing but a browser and a notepad type application with line numbers visible!

Looks pretty good 'cept for some random text sizes.
What's your beef with tables?
Did you need all the Geology for your degree?

I think it looks pretty cool - here are some suggestifications (in no particular order as you can see):
1. Use Heading sizes for Menu categories.
1. Bold the Menu Items, just make them a slightly smaller font size than the category headings.
1. Use some of those annoying-to-place-but-ultimately-nice-looking little wingdings to decorate your menu. Do a google image search for "menu" ...your creative juices will kick in and in no time you'll be cursing me while slaving feverishly over a rework..mauahahahha...
1. Where you currently have a white background go with a beige-ish brown background of some sort or a faded out version of perhaps a collage of cool looking pics that state to the user that this is indeed a multi-cultural experience.
1. For your map do a thumbnail and use z-indexing to have the full-size version pop in front (not popup, just CSS action) when you mouse-over it.
Note: I do disagree about using photos of all the food. If adequately described you should be able to sell (pardon the name) Pork Crap Sandwiches and make people crazy to buy them up (assuming they aren't actually filled with pork crap - no amount of describing in the world can make that stuff sound palatable *BEG*)

Since I can't edit my comment....
I do have one alteration/suggestion after reading the actual menu. An uber cool glossary of terms (with a link at the bottom labelled Food Glossary) that talked about what a falafel was or Filo etc...maybe with a link to a wikipedia reference and a picture or something.
Chuck - 9/12/2006 10:16:00 PM
I was thinking about doing that, I'll talk to the owner about it and see what he thinks. Thanks for participating in my brainstorm you guys - keep it up. :)
