    Just blown up my shopping cart

    Hi.

    Sorry to come here almost crying, (thats hard for a grown man to say)
    But I think I have badly messed up.

    I have somehow lost all my formating & images on all the cart pages 1,2,3 etc

    Look at my mess www.microminiatures.co.uk

    I have limited HTML experence. This could be the problem!
    The site was built by me.
    (sadly I can program PIC Microcontrollers but not a web page)

    I have been trying to improve my sites SEO this is where the problem could of started. I have a site shapshot from the 18/11/07 but am a little bit worried
    about using this as I have make a few important changes to the site since then, and have not backed them up, and the problem might predate this.
    The ordering/checkout still works so I feel that I have messed the format somehow.

    Wise owls: Could you please advise, and give any comments.

        There's no closing bracket for the meta description tag so the base href which follows it is probably not being picked up.

          Thanks Peblaco

          Wood for the trees I think.

          Whilst here anyone got any comments on the site?

          Thanks

            Most things on your site are easily accessible from the menus except the lighting which is abouit three sections deep.

            I think some images and examples on the interest pages would be a good idea, especially for this type of hobby product. Your product pages also don't have links to the brochure pages.

            The SSL pages are slow to load and have some parts on non-secure server side so you get a warning.

            In the checkout the 'last three digits..' is not shown as a required field. Looking at the checkout I see that there are in fact no delivery charges - if this is correct then use it as a selling point clearly on the site.

            The telephone was a bit tucked away and I also couldn't find delivery costs.

              only that to make miniature versions of people in perfect replicas of homes, then control their electricity supply pangs of a powergen employee with a god complex.

              but thats just my brain ticking over there

              i can think of a million really cool uses for this:

              outside dolls houses. might get myself one. site works as expected, and looks ok, but one thing i might be tempted to change is the navigation. from what i can see, the background is too busy. those lines make it hard to pick out whats on a button without studying it. perhaps lighten the background and darken the text?

                My thoughts too. One of those controllers and a few ss relays and a cheap home automation system emerges. Mmmm

                  Great comments. Thanks

                  As for the remote the wifes got one but I still can't control her....

                  Anyway. The CVV2 required is a good point. I went into design-text-payment details but the is no check box to tick under show required. Am I missing something else where on the setup?

                  Thanks David

                    LOL - Welcome to the forum David.

                    I agree with the above - the navigation background and colour scheme does need some work. There is a slight colour burn with the light text against the dark, blue/black background. Perhaps think about making the background opaque so that the design shows through but does not overpower the navigation?

                      Those dimensionless numbers seem confusing. E.g. Height: 10 Width: 4.2 - cm? mm? inches?
