Ooh, it looks really pretty! Very nice. Simple and pleasing to the eye with the soft blue colors.

For the life of me, I tried to find a Babelfish-type Dutch to English translator online, and couldn't find one!

For those of you that are going to view my website: the new buttons are made with a program I just discovered: 1 Cool Button Tool. A great, easy and cheap program to create buttons.

It still says "unregistered" on one of the buttons but I just bought the program and are waiting for the registration key

Now I am going to try this translation tool Adrian mentioned. I will let you know what I think of the translation..... of course

Hanneke

I just translated my first page with Worldlingo. I can barely type, I am still laughing

If anybody is desperate for a translation I see if I can get you one later this week. Have to recover from that translation first

Yes, I know it's not too good but it's the only one I have found so far.

I know, it's really difficult to find a good translation tool. Stormcrow posted two programs in this thread that gave pretty good translations. I just haven't gotten around to downloading them. But maybe if I find a spare minute I will give them both a try.

Thanks for the link, Adrian. That translation is pretty funny!

Good luck with your Web site, mammaduck.

What do you mean, "not too good"? It's fantastic! Tears are rolling down my cheeks with laughing!
I must recommend it to all of my friends and family. Just start your day with a Worldlingo translation, and nothing gets you down anymore!

And mammaduck, I hope this works out for you. I know the situation: friends and family asking all sorts of things about computers and internet. That's why I wrote my Email Guide last year.

By the way, do you plan to attract customers in the Almere area only, or Amsterdam and Haarlem too?

Hi Lukask,

Well I got my first "official customer", somebody that is not a friend or somebody I know. Jumping with joy right now

And I don't mind getting customers from outside Almere but they will have to pay extra to compensate for my travel expenses and time

Hey,
I though this would be the best place to post this. I'm having trouble with css on my homepage. I've got two menu (tables) on the left hand side of the site, both with css. At the top of the tables it looks normal but the bottom half of the table seems to have one blank css row.
My site is www.greatmysteries.net and I have looked closely at the css source but can't see what would cause that (could it be something to do with the html table?!

Any help would be great

Cheers,
Dan.

Here's a good one. Wendy Peck writes a bare bones CSS primer. It reads pretty well.

Here it is.

Dan,

If you're creating your tables using css, it's probably the css. Post it here and see if we can figure it out...
