I do know how to use div tags with css to align the website but I don't like using it. I don't see any reason to do that. Its basically the same thing as tables but the only advantage it gives you is to update your layout much easier by just changing the CSS code instead of remaking the whole thing. But using table makes it much easier to align. We are not going to be adjusting the formation of the tables. Plus, we use tables with div with css for easier arrangements. So it ends up being the same thing but much easier to align.

Try telling that to a person who is visually impaired. (Or the googlebot)

It's not "nationals", "nats", or any variation of that...

It's CHAMPIONSHIP!

Sorry, it gets annoying when people who weren't involved in the program 8 years ago continue to call it that.

1714 has our site up. www.morerobotics.org Check it out I think it is pretty cool. For anyone who saw us at Wisconsin or Buckeye regional or the championship we have some pictures of our battery charging station along with some info. I really like the battery box. This was an example of our pit boss not liking our unorganized system of charging batterys, and deciding to create a whole new thing.

Congrats for Wisconsin Regional Best website award winners :)

Re: Who got the best website to win the Nationals' website award?
 

Thats not bad for 2nd year at all. Very nice layout and well organized. Over the years, try to accumulate the most info though =)

Re: Who got the best website to win the Nationals' website award?
 

Nice sites everyone! :cool:
We just completely redesigned (and redid the back-end of) our website. It now takes advantage of PHP5 and its objectified awesomeness! Jquery for the sliding menus (mootools gave us trouble!) We (at least I) hope you like it!

note: It is still not completely polished.

Re: Who got the best website to win the Nationals' website award?
 

Thats a really a nice site guys. Very clean layout. Also, Very NICE re sizable window, it works on any resolution =)

Google Search button is the way to go :D , but you know you can customize your search page

What did you guys use for the calendar?

Re: Who got the best website to win the Nationals' website award?
 

Your menus act really funny without javascript enabled... but they do still allow navigation!

First year as the webmaster for 116- http://www.team116.org/2008/
I'd hoped to have php and mysql to play with but as it turns out we didn't even have php :(. Dave couldn't do anything about it, either (hosted by NASA). Next year, hopefully :). Crits plz

Re: Who got the best website to win the Nationals' website award?
 

Tables actually arent that bad... and there is no set "web 1.0" standard that you have to comply with in order for your website to be valid.
I must admit though, many designs simply arent possible with tables...


either way, we are hoping our site makes the cut to have a shot at the national judging panel: Click Here

Re: Who got the best website to win the Nationals' website award?
 

Thanks for all of your responses! The calendar is actually custom done with MYSQL and PHP (especially the post's).

Ah yes, due to finicky JQuery + messy CSS. Definitely not my favorite javascript library albeit one of the easier ones.

Thanks for pointing out the google search customization though! I would really like to attempt incorporating that.

Re: Who got the best website to win the Nationals' website award?
 

I agree mate. I just think that its useless of just using div with css when you can use tables with div with css. and its way easier


You guys defintaly has one of the best websites. GL

Re: Who got the best website to win the Nationals' website award?
 

Awesome! I just switched it! I can't believe how great this is! What can google not do!? @Team56: You just made our search function infinitely better!

As for the jquery thing, we tried to use mootools for like, 2 weeks.. And failed! Daryl got jquery working in a few days, so we went with that. I still wish that we could use mootools (or something smoother and more reliable than jquery), however content and other backend projects are trumping slidey menus for the time being ;)
