[QUOTE=horsedrowner;32489364]I don't actually post in Web Development as I don't really think myself as a web developer.
I do work on my own site every now and then and I just gave it a Metro-ish look.
I apologize if I'm just another random person coming in to show off their site like everyone else. v:v:v

It's mostly valid XHTML (Strict, but declared as Transitional) and valid CSS (not 2.1, because of text-shadow). It started off as an assignment for university but I kept working on it myself.[/QUOTE]
Just curious, is it supposed to be off-center that much?

It's not supposed to be centered but left-aligned with a margin.

Agreed, I don't understand why people keep shitting on it.

I took one of their test thingy, i failed and felt bad.

this is why w3schools is shit
[QUOTE=anton;32494102]this is why w3schools is shit[/QUOTE]
Instead of making a website stating the flaws of w3schools they should make their own tutorials or just shut the fuck up. w3schools has really useful tutorials and those "flaws" they gather on w3fools don't hold any significant value compared with the amount of useful information on w3schools.

W3Schools is shit.

Making tutorials is helping them with their homework, making their site is doing their homework.
However, making w3fools is laughing in their face for not knowing which tutorial site to use

CC, here we go!
The hover effect for links on the header don't look good, it's probably the text-shadow.
There is so much wasted space on the right side, just that one box makes it look too thin.

That is just too hard to read properly.

It works! Yay!
It points to an IP I don't own, I have no clue who's machine it is. :v:

Crap!
Yes, yes there is. Hmm, my regex is not new enough ><
You can see the page it was SUPPOSED to show at: [url]http://eax.dk/fuck_ie.php[/url]
Don't do that. It's not the browsers fault, it's yours as web developer. Denying a user access to your website because of their browser is stupid. It really isn't that hard to make something cross browser compatible.

Are you seriously calling that everytime?
Just make all of the similar aspects in one class, then make a diff class for each change.
[code]
.bar {
margin-bottom: 25px;
padding: 15px;
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.44);
top: 25px;
width: 700px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
position: relative;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 1px;
border-color: gray;
-moz-border-radius: 10px 0px 10px 0px;
-webkit-border-radius: 10px 0px 10px 0px;
-khtml-border-radius: 10px 0px 10px 0px;
border-radius: 10px 0px 10px 0px;
}
[/code]
It appears that you don't even change anything. I don't see why you didn't do that in the first place. More efficient and semantic.

Also, RGBA isn't supported in IE and older versions of FF, Opera, etc.
Just either use a 1x1px image with the opacity for the browsers that don't support it, or use an opaque colour.
With an image that has transparency however, you need to apply the IE filter fix.

While I do agree with you (and it IS easy to make), I am not going to do it for my own personal website. Simply because I find it more funny to redirect people using (apparently) old versions of IE to that page :P Stupid? Yes.
Other than that:
Great tips, thanks both of you :)
I will update this when I get home.
I recently took over a hosting site, just wondering what people think of it and the prices

I could also do a Promo code for facepunch users for 25% off? (PM me if you would want one)
