Latest ModX Project

This is the latest website designed and developed using ModX: http://www.tumasdevelopments.com at the company I work at.

It was developed for one of the most prestigious property developers in Malta, so if any of you ModX users is interested in moving to a luxurious place in Malta, feel free to make use of the website

Very nice! A bit wide for my iBook screen, but looks great on my 24" second monitor.

Hi Sottwell, what is the resolution on your iBook?

The designer designed it with tablets in mind. As you do not have the hover functionality on them, he has ensured to provide alternatives, such as the left margin menu and made such links big enough to be pressed on with your finger easily

The iBook is 1024x768.

Yep you’re right. All the different devices with different resolutions is surely making life hard for us (web developers)

I hear you

This is a 14" iBook. My partner has a 17" MacBookPro, and one day I got a phone call from him when one of our clients was complaining about how their pages were flickering back and forth as you went from page to page. He was getting the same thing. It looked fine to me. Then I had to explain to him that the bigger screens were seeing pages with less content without the scrollbar on the right, whereas all of the pages were long enough on my screen to have a scrollbar. So I set a min-height for the body element that made it long enough to have a scrollbar all the time. Unless it was viewed in IE, of course. But I was quite blunt from the beginning that I wasn’t going to go through any convoluted efforts to make IE pixel-perfect. The site works and doesn’t look bad in IE, that’s as far as I’ll go.

Very nice. There is an issue with a div somewhere. No matter how large I make my screen it shows the scrollbar along the bottom of the browser.

There’s also an issue with the drop down menus on the front page (see image). They need more height.

I,m on an iPad today and the faints look like times new roman. Is that on purpose? They don’t match the look of the nav. Maybe a non serif font would be better?
