Links done in JavaScript. I mean, <a href="http://foo"> works for everybody, everytime. But no, smart arsed "Web Developers" have to justify their salary by making it more complicated. And URLs the length of your arm that look like some sort of unified field theory equation.
Yes, I am reading the Belfast Telegraph Jobfinder page.
I think that most sites are built to impress the person buying them, and most people buying web sites are too easily impressed by teeny fonts, trendy colours and needless movement. This means something that works well or, heaven forbid, works better than specified is a rare thing (it being appreciated from 'on high' is an even rarer thing).
Hence a lot of web sites end up being like a Vauxhall Corsa in Bangor, on a Sunday evening, lots of useless plastic with nothing of substance underneath.

More!? OK then, but I can't help feeling that this will be a disappointment to you.
I work as a web designer in Belfast, and I live by the sea in a shoe. You can see me here, doing my livejournal pose as idoru called it. If you need to you can email me at carisenda -at- gmail -dot- com.

Does exactly what it says on the (comic book) tin. Loved it. - Little Miss Sunshine

Very funny, disturbing (the beauty pageant) and completely messed up -- but in a good way. - Laputa: Castle in the Sky†
Story great, characterization a little on the weak side -- though the big robots are cool. - Porco Rosso
†
Stylish, funny, exciting. - Grave of the Fireflies†
Very sad, which was a little unexpected since I didn't know much about it before watching it. Can be a little too slow in places though, otherwise it's very good. - Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind†
The story can get a little dense at times what with the various factions, but still really enjoyable, inventive and engaging. - X-Men: The Last Stand

Opportunity, talent, money - all blown. Over 3 films X-Men has hinted of something great that could have been, this last one says "No, sorry - not going to happen". Bah.
Yeah, that is pissing me off too. Not that I am reading the jobfinder site, but I have come across several sites lately that have used those annoyting things. BT comes to mind.
I’d say 99% of recruitment/jobfindery sites in NI were built by a retard. Built without any regard for the end user whatsoever.
Yeah I agree especially grafton. ;-)
Wasn’t the grafton site built by someone with a Bad Attitude™?
You listening out there, Ress?
It twas indeed, he can slate it now he is leaving though.
