Default Urgent >>

Brian you have unworking links from Platinax.co.uk homepage.

(top nav bar)
They don't link to blog/news/directory. All inner pages I looked at seem fine.

James.

This happened the other day as well. Just seems to be a slight niggle in the script/hosting because it comes back later on.

It's probably just .htaccess / mod_rewrite throwing a wobbler - it can do this from time to time... Nothing to worry about

The top nav bar has a drop down menu using Active X controls.

An attractive reason for this is that it allows me to better direct visitors (humans and search engines) to the deeper content areas, and also push PageRank into deeper levels more efficiently.

However, I appreciate that Active X isn't always popular so I should probably look at rebuilding the nav in layers, rather than Active X.

Ok, my point was, on every page at the top you have 4 images which are linked, and so is the text underneath.
On the homepage all the images are linked but only the text to the blog, there are 3 links that just point to platinax.co.uk/#
If you are OK with this, no problem. I just tend to click words not pictures.

and one other thing (whilst I'm here), what happened to your adsense?

regards
James.

Indeed, James - the homepage is the only place at present where the nav is set like that - allow Active X and you'll see it working.

I tried to implement it on the news and blog sections, and the forums of course, but the CSS started to get really messy, so I kept it on the homepage where it was easier to manage.

As for Adsense - I've experimented with Adsense on Platinax a few times - but I'd rather set up direct advertising relationships instead.
