skybon Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 The site is close to being a valid XHTML 1.1 but has some 5 errors (1 unclosed tag, 3 "/ >" and one odd attribute) that need to be fixed. Link to comment
dzek (varez) Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 this is forum script (phpBB). nobody will fix these errors and try to make a post with a lot of code, quote, youtube etc tags inside each other (add some lists and images too) - you will get a lot of errors. try to switch forum skin - there will be another errors too. its useless to fix that. even google are not valid Link to comment
Towncivilian Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 SkyBon is referring to the main page, I believe. If you could post specifics, that'd help us a bit. Link to comment

Towncivilian Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Why does the forum navbar have a link to "forum"? If a user wishes to return to the index, they can just click the "Board index" link at the top left underneath the banner. "downloads" in the navbar leads to files.multitheftauto.com which redirs to the main site. Link to comment
MTA Team Blokker_1999 Posted January 6, 2011 MTA Team Share Posted January 6, 2011 Why does the forum navbar have a link to "forum"? If a user wishes to return to the index, they can just click the "Board index" link at the top left underneath the banner.I think someone just reused the code that was also on other pages in the past"downloads" in the navbar leads to files.multitheftauto.com which redirs to the main site.Well, we could rename it download ... At this moment the current download is available on the main page. Link to comment
SugarD-x Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 1. You are correct. That was leftover from the original site theme awhile back. 2. Why not just rename it download and link to the current mirror? Link to comment
MTA Team Blokker_1999 Posted January 6, 2011 MTA Team Share Posted January 6, 2011 A direct link isnt good, cause if the link dies then you have to start changing it in multiple locations and you could miss it/forget it. Link to comment
SugarD-x Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Well I would suggest a mirror system that actually picks a random mirror as the download location, then the link on the main page and the one here would randomly alternate. This would also prevent downtime caused by the download-hosting site if something should go wrong. From the downloader's point of view, all they would see is a standard link to the download from one of the random sites, a.k.a. the output of the code, which changes each time the page refreshes. The only issue would be that releases would have to be updated on the mirrors as they are released, but then again the team could just update them a day prior to actual release and not change the mirror links to the new filename until all of them are ready.

Towncivilian Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Isn't the "downloads" link supposed to lead to the files archive? I meant to say that http://www.files.multitheftauto.com redirects to the main site rather than http://files.mtasa.com, not that the link in question should lead to the main MTA:SA download. Link to comment
SugarD-x Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) Personally it would be nice if ALL downloads, including the SA ones, were in the same directory as all the others to some degree... As for downloads, you could do that if it were renamed to "Archive" since otherwise it conflicts with the download link on the main page. Also, it should be http://files.multitheftauto.com/ and not http://www.files.multitheftauto.com/ since the "www." part is redundant. I don't know why that was added in the first place... Fixed!

MTA Team Blokker_1999 Posted May 14, 2011 MTA Team Share Posted May 14, 2011 Sure you can. The first 3 errors are part of a piece of javascript. Since JS isn't part of the XHTML standard that code simply should not be there. Move the javascript to it's own file and include that file back in the header of the page. Error number 4 is related to a table and more specificly to a property that has to deal with layout. The layout of a page or it's elements should not be inside the body code but elements should be formatted within a stylesheet. Give the table a class and set the height in the css. Link to comment
SugarD-x Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 I told him how to do the last one already. Web code is not really his thing, so he figured he'd leave it to the pro's. http://apptools.com/examples/tableheight.php Scroll down to "Using Valid Code". Link to comment
