Who has the best website?

Is having a website a licensing requirement?

I'd really be surprised if anyone of us gets financial support. I will look at the Derry site tonight.

Don't think so.

[Gareth]

There are definately IT requirements on it I thought? The Shels site uses tables in many places but I am changing that over the close season. Don't get me wrong, tabular data should be in tables. Thats what they are for. They are not however to be used as Layout structure for a site .

Oh god! Here we go again! NERD ALERT!!!

Roy, you know the way there are lots of other thread, well if you don't wanna read it , stop. Ya big 10 year old ya.

Stay on topic you plank!!!

Hi Derek, yeah I see that is uses tables. The reason I say that we should move away from using tables for the layout is very simple. Tables are for structuring tabular data, not for presenting visual layout. You can use css to style your tables, but really we should all be moving from that to actually have a tableless design layout and if we need tabular data then use a table. Anyone who has needed to design a very complex layout can tell you using tables ends up in a mess of <table><tr><td> tags with little chance of readability.

You are right the code becomes spegetti very quickly, can css (and I am a fan of css) display stuff a nice on the eye? I found it difficult to put structure on the site without tables.

Derek, with css you just need to comment your code and it can be broken into very simple div sections. Plus you need to read up on iot to know what your doing . Otherwise it may look right in IE but logically its all over the place and Opera and Firefox will probably expose them problems.

Thats the worst!

Trying to get the CSS to behave itself in IE, Firefox AND Opera.

I had a bit of a nightmare with that!

I hope people have checked out the news section of corkcityfc.ie, they make an announcement on the topic of this thread!

elevenaside.com and corkcityfc.ie up for the golden spiders

[Speranza]

Fair enough the Cork website is very good but eleven-a-side. That site merely re-iterates the words of other media and sometimes puts ridiculous spin on it. Their team of the week is another farce.

Just had a look and the Cork City site is far better then the SRFC one which ok in some areas but lacking a lot in many others.

I think the multimedia sections - downloads, clips of goals, interviews etc... set the corkcityfc.ie site apart.

A lot of the league club websites could teach fai.ie a lot.

Thought most did that by now. Ours and Bohs do anyway
