How would I best indicate the required format for a phone number (country + area code) I'd suggest that the JavaScript "Autocorrection" should not "reformat" the number. The user knows best how it's traditionally written! Instead, check in the background that the number 1) has a country code, 2) has the right number of digits for that country. Disregard non-numeric characters except +. Ask the user only if something is wrong/missing. Before asking the user, correct everything you can, so you don't need to ask again and again. E.g. where the country code is missing, guess it by IP and ask the user to confirm. |

When users ignore icons is it poor design or distracted users? Sorry, got a bit carried off with my previous comment. What I mean is that a text label should not be used to "patch" (i.e. explain) a poor icon choice in first place. To augment it or to clarify an abstract concept for which there is no pictorial representation, it's fine. Matt, thanks for making me understand I hurried too much :) |

When users ignore icons is it poor design or distracted users? I strongly disagree. If you need a label to explain an icon, the icon is not doing any job in first place. |

When I change the name of one page, should all child's of that page, have the url rewritten? Yes, but the complete URL is still changing; both from the user point of view and from SEO point of view, it will be a new, unrelated URL. |

What is a Modal Dialog Window? also you're mixing a bit pop-up and modal dialog. modal dialogs existend long before the web, no need to explain them in a web-only context |
