1st Site Built with Lansa Please Review

[pincushionboy]

Hello. This is my first website built with Lansa's 4gl coding. Alot of javascripts are used and of course Lansa's language. Please advise to the look and what I could do possibly to make it look more appealing. Thanks in advance.

It's definetly appealing. I like the layout, it's very graphical, and there's lots of content. The one thing I dont like about it is the purple links at the botom. They dont seem to match with the rest of the layout. Other than that, it looks great. Although, the code is brutal. Maybe consider putting all of the javascript in an external file, cause it's all over the place. Despite code, It's pretty damn good:)

The javascripts and more are all in compnents due to Lansas structure. Each section has a component i.e. header, footer, side menu, center, etc. Makes it very easy to build the pieces. The view source blows me away. So much code, yet so easy to build. Thanks for your words. I think you may be right about the purple links.

Urm, ouch. Far too much code, I suspect GoogleBot would just give up before it found any content. Anyone with javascript turned off (around 10%) would find the site completely inaccessable and users with non-graphical browsers might as well not bother.

I liked it, even the purple at the bottom. I certainly wouldn't change it to be the same as the other links -- black / gray -- there needs to be some variety, particularly since your site has a great visual appearance.

The code is daunting, that's true -- but based on the results -- it was way worth it!

Nice job!!
