Can you critique my site please? I’ve just completed a total overhaul, and after staring at the same pages for weeks I’d like some fresh opinions.

One problem I’m stuck on is to do with the Norcascade menu. It works beautifully, except if you run a quick search, the results page some how corrupts the menu. It’s as if it’s not picking up the link to the style sheet. It’s using the same act_primary template (I believe) which is fine on everything else. Strange one, this. Also, if you click on a link from the search results, the menu fault is carried through to the product page. Any suggestions on this?

Might help if I post a link :o

Run a search and see what happens to the menu.

The search page is not using the same template as the main shop page. It threw up a few javascript errors viewed in firefox, but it was when I looked at the source code for the page ...

There is a link to a pop-style.css file and a load of javascript code outside the head tag. You need to move that opening head tag up so it immediately follows the <html> tag, then check that page again.


It blew up my Opera installation - I had to restart with a blank Opera, and I hate that. IE was sure there was an error on page but not able to tell me what it was.

Thanks Bill. Did your Opera fail on the main page, or just the search page?

It was the transition to the search page. I presume that failing to find the head tag and running into the javascript instead was the culprit.
