Red face Ok, Might as well jump in and get a critique or three...

First site, using Vodahost. Nice hosting package by the way. Ok, guys and gals, critiques are in full order. I'll appreciate any comments, good or bad.

Oh yea, it's at http://behindthetruth.info

Thanks all.

PS. It's still being built BTW... Some links might not work yet.

A little to flashy and hard to read for me... Looks interesting though. You may want to put this code in though to disable right click on the page (so that people can't do certian things)

Code:
  <script>
  var isNS = (navigator.appName == "Netscape") ? 1 : 0;
  if(navigator.appName == "Netscape") document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN||Event.MOUSEUP);
  function mischandler(){
  return false;
  }
  function mousehandler(e){
  var myevent = (isNS) ? e : event;
  var eventbutton = (isNS) ? myevent.which : myevent.button;
  if((eventbutton==2)||(eventbutton==3)) return false;
  }
  document.oncontextmenu = mischandler;
  document.onmousedown = mousehandler;
  document.onmouseup = mousehandler;
  </script>

Interesting site! What a wide range of information! I like your home page background, but found the information a bit too cluttered....almost information overload. But overall I like it---good job so far.

Interesting site, only I can't really figure out what it is about. Most of your links don't work. I am assuming there is only 1 page since there is no navigation bar. It seems like you may have some interesting topics, but I can't click on them. A little more tweeking is due I think! Good Luck!

Thanks to both replies. I'm working on it of course. Good ideas and concepts. I put the script in but did not notice it working. I probably goofed it up (entered it wrong or something)

I know that some of the links don't work yet, and I'm busy getting the files in place from my other site, so it takes a little time to get it all done, of course. Right now, you would be able to click on The Book Store, and the Unexplained Pic. Thanks again for the good replies eveyone.

  document.onmouseup = mousehandler;
  </script>


I tried the code above, and it did nothing except disable my pages. Even I couldn't find the page, along with several others. I took it back out, and now the page works fine. I dont' know what that was all about, but that's what happened.

all that code would do would disable the right click. What browser are you using?

I tried a ".com" to the link listed at top (rather than ".info") and got to a site, but I'm not sure it's yours....."truth/lies" make sense??
If yours IS the ".info" you have to do something about what you published...get a 505 - page cannot be displayed, NOT the typical 404 - page not found....check the periods and commas in your Titles, for instance....or no capitalizing the "i" in index....simples, right?

I'll try again when issue is resolved....

Question Re: Ok, Might as well jump in and get a critique or three...

One of the problems is that the http://behindthetruth.info does work (at least for me) if I add the index.html to the above address like this:
http://behindthetruth.info/index.html I can't seem to find a way to break out of that. I've made some improvements (so he says) to the site, but if you can't see it - guess you can't offer an opinion... and I'd like to hear them.

Hi,
http://behindthetruth.info/index.html works for me in IE6.
Some thoughts:
-The "Home" on Nav Bar doesn't work - cannot display page.
-Nav Bar or linked words on other pages would help users return to Index or Home page or other pages.
-Your two links don't work: http://www.mymangosteen.com/distributors/BobS and http://www.mangosteenexperiences.com

Couple of other links don't work.
