Finishing touches

Today has been spent putting the finishing touches to my website and starting to construct the documentation around the site. I have been working with CSS a lot today and really feel that I have the hang of it (mostly) now. Although I am still getting an error on all the pages of my site through the validator on the script text= css part of the link. Not sure why this is happening and have probably run out of time to get it fixed. I had the aim of a completely valid site but I think that may have been wishful thinking - more experience required in working out how to fix the things that are making my site not 100% valid at this stage I think.
The site documentation is coming along. I am using screen grabs of each of the pages of the site and then providing an explanation of what the visitor can do there, what technologies are used on the page and the navigation of the page. This is not terribly difficult as my site is a content site and therefore quite static. There is some interactivity there but only on certain pages.
I was using the JavaScript onclick code from our week 8 lecture initially to get some interactivity in my photogallery however I just couldn't get it to work. I then went and searched for a photo gallery plug in online and came up with a great bit of code from Jon Designs at http://smoothgallery.jondesign.net/ using mootools v1.11 to create a slide show gallery that I am really happy with. This is probably what I should have done in the first place! According to Jon "Since it's based on the mootools library, it's somehow platform agnostic. I have fully tested it on:

• Firefox
• Opera
• Internet Explorer 6 and 7
• Safari"

This means that I am about as close to complete as I am going to get with this website and I have learnt a lot every day that I have worked on it.
