I finally got my javascript working for my Navbar css, that was kicking my butt. Only one hiccup on the League drop down at the bottom were I intend to add an online ladder for the E-racers to get to use the ladder format we are trying. Thanks for replies. Now it's on to writing the rest of the html pages but my templates done, just need to add the content.

My internet connection may be for shit tonight but it seemed like everything took too long to load.

I'll check it again tomorrow to see if things are quicker on my end.

I mostly agree that flash intros are history, but it took 2.5 seconds to load, not too shabby.

That's a really nice site you have.

I don't know what was going on but maybe the server load was too high when i hit it. I waited over 2 minutes and it was only at 75% when I quit.

This is why I don't like giving feedback. People don't really want it.

LOL... I was just giving it back to ya Andy, I know you're a tough cracker..

I have been getting hammered by the racers over some specs so you're criticism is ultra soft like downey. These guys have been a part of the entire development and when I ask for their input I have to pry it out of them but now that I finally got Bristol's attention a few start bashing me that I have ignored them.. I am working on the content now. I do have a flash intro but I scrapped it and only kept the scroller because it's more like just a big ad.. The intro had audio and all that and I decided it was too overboard. I will scrap the scroller to but prob not until I get video content. People have real short attention spans and to satisfy that I definitely need short vids to get the general pop interested.

I ain't no expert but one of the things you have to consider with flash based web sites is google and other search engines being able to accurately index them.

I really loved playing with Flash when it was the 'thing' to do but these days it's shunned by most web developers. Or so they tell me.

But anyway, like I said, it loaded fine today.

If you look around the css navbar you'll see the other pages are starting to fill in with there first run edition of content. The mainpage isn't completely flash just one table.I am not sure about how google indexes it but the key words and all that are still in the meta tags. I don't have a clue what I am doing really, I just pick it up as I go a long. So any tips on stuff like indexing are appreciated. I know link backs help a lot with google and a link back from BMS should help in the spring when their site gets hammered at for race weekend on the nascar track.

Google doesn't really do meta tags these days either.
