Well...I am never an expert in website design and functionality. I guess your site is quite fine. Just change or add from time to time to keep your readers get excited.

Good site. One thing I would recommend is giving the drop down links a bit of breathing room - right now, they seem smushed together and a bit cluttered.

That’s the Breadcrumbs snippet, available with the standard demo content install of MODx.

Pretty cool looking dynamic website

How did you manage too show down the page you’re actually on, like:

Galleries » advanced study
on the content top of:
http://www.bikes4all.org.il/en/galleries/229.html

is it something like:
[(site_name)] - [*pagetitle*]
but with different pages or? Please help I love this function

Hi,

this should work:

.ditto_text{
      position: static;
      min-height: 100px;
      height:auto !important;
      height: 100px;
      padding-bottom: 1em;
      margin-right:160px;
}

.ditto_introText p{
	margin-top: 0 !important;
	margin-bottom: 5px !important;
	/*overflow: hidden;*/
	min-height: 4.5em;
        height:auto !important;
        height: 4.5em;
}

.ditto_more{
	position: static;
	bottom: 1em;
	right: 160px;
	*right: 0px; /* ie hack */
}

if there will be more text in the "ditto_introText" paragraph (or increased font-size), the "read more" link will be pushed downwards and the whole ditto-textbox will expand...i guess that’s how it should be. if you want the textbox to wrap around the thumbnail, get rid of the 160px margin. i couldn’t check the IEs...

Thanks everyone.

Removing

overflow: hidden

leads to the articles text overflowing over the ’Read more’ link, you can see this happen on the english page where some of the text is a little too long.

Hi Erez,

try to take out "overflow: hidden;" from ".ditto_introText p" ...works here with opera, ff2, ff3, safari3...couldn’t check with IE though.

cheers, jan
