Am chuffed with products.asp. Took ages to get those structure images to generate dynamically. ASP still sucks!!

Lol, I now feel it was worth the effort. Have to say though, thank god 8:3 file naming conventions have dies otherwise;

"Lawesson's Reagent (2,4-Bis(4-methoxyphenyl) -2,4-dithioxo-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetane).gif"

would have been a real problem!;)

On Ie, the site content seems to be right justifed.

On a 1024 x 768 monitor, nearly half of the page is whitespace.

Intended? Just seems as if the "flow" of the pages are a little odd. :)

FYI...

The validation from a blank contact FORM produces an HTTP 500 Internal Error.

When mousing over the Aroma Chems. navigation on IE 6 @ 1024 it causes a horizontal scroll bar to be added.

For usability most people expect to be able to click on the top logo/header to get back to the home page.

The product images are fantastic, quite handy to look up the functional groups as well.

I never test for opera, dunno why, maybe due to not knowing anyone who uses it, really should, but it's worse that IE with all the versions about and the varying ropey support it has for CSS and standards.

The drop-down menus are broken in Opera 7.51. The main headings ("Research Chemicals & Intermediates" and "Aroma Chemicals") sit on top of each other, rather than side to side.

Looks pretty good if you ask me (although I must agree it's not exactly 'inspiring')

On one of the pictures (at the top), some guy looks like he is snorting cocaine.

I like the space on the left, you can stick post-it notes there!
