Something Happening at lotusflow3r.com? As mentioned in another thread, the lotusflow3r website wasn't loading the song snippets today. It was discovered that in Safari and Firefox, if one's cache is cleared, the songs wouldn't load... just stuck on "loading..."
Internet Explorer allegedly worked. Then, one stated that if you lose the "www.", and type in "lotusflow3r.com" only, they would load. They did. Another ORGer, "Sarkozyiszeman", said this about the lotusflow3r site, as a web developer: What is worrying is how unprofessional the work is done. Let me explain : 1) The LF current homepage has no doctype. Should be at least in xhtml 1.0 2) The css (cascading style sheet) is within the page while it should be all in a .css file. 3) They use attributes within the body tag they should not use anymore such as leftmargin rightmargin etc. Should all be in css. 4) They apparently use two different servers as I can display the error that occurs with Chrome and FF and it is typical of a flash object (swf) within a html page trying to load stuff that are not on the same server. I bet the mp3s are not anymore hosted on the same server as the LF's one. That's why it is not working anymore. It is in an "audio" folder but somewhere else. Problem is they need to use a cross-domain.xml file to avoid this security issue. It often happens with flash beginners who use RSS feeds. The error message is : Error #2044: securityError non pris en charge : text=Error #2048: Sandbox security violation 5) Just for the little story : they even use a center tag to center a heading H1. God we used to do that back in 96-98 ! And I could carry on and on. I mean it is just one page and they still managed to make so many mistakes that I can hardly believe these guys are real professionals. Don't mean to be agressive towards these people but I'm a developer myself and I know my shit. This leads me 2 think two things... That there R changes happening, and that, quite possibly, this flash site is not going 2 be his actual official site, if there is 2 be one. Thoughts? ~G "He's a musician's musician..." | |
