Site Help!
People keep telling me that they cannot access my web site? The address is http://www.stouffa.co.uk now everything seems to be working fine for me!
I just wondered if it will be peoples browers that are the problem, can someone test it for me?
How can I solve this?
Get back to me.
Cheers,
Steve.

Front page loads, press enter goes to second page. Two images claim to be loading but nothing shows and none of the links from the menu do anything right now.

Thanks for that reply,
But what do I do to solve this problem with the browsers?
What can I as a webmaster actually do?
Shall I create a web site that enables a frames site and a non-frames site?
Get back to me,
Cheers,
Steve.

I tested it in both NN 4.08 and IE 5.5 and it's working fine for me. Ask people which browser they're using when they can't get in. That's all I can think of really. The frames really shouldn't be the problem - there aren't too many people using browsers that don't support frames anymore. Unless, of course, there's something wrong with your code. Try running it through a validator.
I do see a lot of errors in your code where you've tried to apply stylesheets. What are you using to write your code? Whatever it is, it's repeatedly applying some of the CSS tags to certain elements so that should be cleaned up (but I don't think that this would be preventing people from accessing the site).

Your frameset file makes no sense to me.
681*,102 presumably is meant to be 681,*,102 meaning 681 columns in the left frame, 102 columns in the right frame, and the middle frame contains * - as many as left over. Adding rows="*" to that line is redundant.
107,107% means ... I give up, it's probably a typo.
Your frameset appears to define more 'spaces' than you have named src files to fill them.
The frameset is almost certainly (part of) the problem some of your visitors are having:)

Everything works fine. Everything loads fine. I just don't like the font you have on the button link things.

I'd say definitely get that frameset straightened out - I've seen electronic editors write some pretty ugly code for those

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the great response to my problem. Some people see the site as working fine and others see problems with the coding of styles etc..
I have used Dreamweaver 3 to create the whole of the site so how shall I clean up this HTML and get rid of and problems with the frame sets or style coding?
Get back to me please.
Steve.

OK. What are you trying to achieve with the frameset? How many frames, what sizes, etc.

I want the site to be in 3 main frames.
Left Centre Right
The left and right frames should be the same size, just big enough the fit the text links in! I aint got a clue what size that will be though!
I do not really understand the styles and frameset coding!

Welcome
Will produce three frames, the left and right frame at 150 pixels wide and the centre frame whatever is left over.

Cheers for that coding, I will try it out and see what happens. That should sort out the problem with the framesettings.
Someone mentioned that I have a problem with the html of the styles I have created, any ideas where they are or what they are?

In your nav frame you've got a lot of extra span class tags - this is one line from that code:

It should look more like this:

Or better yet, this:

DW does a really bad job of dealing with Stylesheets IMHO. You'd be better off to hand-code them.
