Redirect 302 /welcome.php http://www.othsrobotics.com/index.shtml
is what we currently have
We are running DirectAdmin as our server
That would only redirect non-www URL’s to www URL’s.
We know that’s the code but for some reason it doesnt work.
Where do we put that code?
www.eastlakerobotics.org
pretty much done, still a little in progress.
Thanks 
This is Powerhawks Team 1111’s entry for the award (http://powerhawks.org/). It’s not done yet but well on the way there.
No Problem!
Nice website overall. Some simple suggestions:
Give some styling to your dropdown menus. Like a hover state that way it’s easier (and cooler) to see which one you are hovering over.
I suggest making your logo clickable :P. People’s instincts are to click the logo to go home.
But again nice site!
Nice slider concept in the center! I was thinking of doing something like that this year. Do you use your own custom cms?
I am pleased to share our website with you all.
I have been working off of last years template to try and make it fresh, basic, and sleek. I hope to hear some constructive criticism from you CD folks.
Yeah. It’s just a little bit of simple MySQL and I used CKEditor. If only I could get someone else to actually write the content now haha.
If someone zooms in on the site though, the layout gets totally ruined. Anybody think of a way around this?
When I view this site, the logo banner (“Power Hawks Robotics Team 1111 from …”) displays to the left of the rest of the content, making the page twice as wide as my screen. I’m on Google Chrome, Linux.
Team 3238’s website is at http://team3238.com - any feedback is appreciated.
You might be on an old build of chrome, it works fine for me on linux and windows through chrome.
Speaking of which, when the award guidelines say the site should work in all browsers, does it imply that the browsers being tested are only the newest versions? Our website works in the newest version of all browsers but fails on some old ones (IE 6/7 or something like that).
The main old browser you need to be concerned with is the IE series. Now I will try to make a website work for IE6, but you could also take the route of displaying a notice that states “Hey you are an really really old browser. Click here to upgrade to a new faster secure one”. Then list FF,Chrome,IE#. However, I would try to optimize for IE7. You could use this site to get a feel for the number of people using each web browser and what version they usually run. http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp
However, I don’t think you will be counted off horribly for not being able to display properly in IE6 and others.
So what do you guys think? http://www.team1676.com/
I’m new to our team this year, but no one else wanted/could do it, so here it is. (Work in progress) http://waltonrobotics.org
Also a work in progress:
Web site works well on iPhone and iPad too, just need to add more content. Any comments would be appreciated 
Does anyone know a good way to test whether our site works with an older browser aside from actually getting it (I don’t even know if this is possible).
Edit: http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/ does this.
very nice i mean very nice…a few minor things theres a random white line on the front page to the right above the skunk facts (its very minor), and with your awards that picture really through me off cause it was below the 2006 awards and its 2010 i think its just the wrong placement of that picture maybe even deleted it truely doesnt need to be there but overall its great good job
You can download Internet Explorer 9 which has an option to use IE 7 or 8 standards. Just hit F12 to bring up the developer options. Let me know if you need more help.
