Brad25891 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Ok so I'm currently making a website as a project of mine and a friends and It's looking ok if i say so myself. The only problem is on this site, when I go to highlight things it highlights the images used in the site, which could be a problem... Is there a way to stop people from highlighting your stuff like put it in the background.

MageUK Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 What you should have done really is split the top and bottom of the site using a table and allowed your content to be on a white (#FFFFFF, not an image) background. This would have not only solved the problem with highlighting but also allowed your site to be infinitely expandable vertically for more content. Also, you should register your domains before letting anyone else know what they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MageUK Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I'm not saying you should change the grey background around your site by the way, I quite like the fact it doesn't hit the edge of the browser. Just that you should split your site into table format and allow the white content area to be expandable vertically with a hex colour background and with a fixed percentage width. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't see his original site (he removed the link), the entire thing was already table based, so him switching around how the top and bottom were coded would have been much easier by just changing some table elements. DIVs are the best for data, I agree, but for that design, it was far easier to use a table based method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
