Thanks, I hope Warly finds time to install some more plugins, since
there are some which will make this a lot easier, and more consistent. I
might set up a personal wiki so I can test some of them and send Warly
something that is easy to setup ...

> Since when are you into graphic design?

Never done real graphic design, I did a bit of web design (that's how I
got into Linux BTW, first production Mandrake box was a 7.0 I setup to
develop our site on, since Windows Personal Web Server was too limited
to develop with), but didn't have time to update it, and eventually they
got someone here to mangle it with Dreamweaver (IMHO our present site
sucks a lot more than the outdated one I did originally 3 years ago ...)
before I managed to get it upgraded to use php, but I did some pretty
cool things with javascript and server-side-includes, it was a frames
site with good navigation (you could bookmark a frame easily, and
returning to it would rebuild the frames for you) that degraded well
through Netscape 4.x, 3.x, even supported 2.x, and was navigable without
frames (which our new site is not :-().

And I don't need no stinkin WYSIWYG, since I have vi (;-)), but for some
reason the Dreamweaver people seem to have more sway, and generated
hideous graphics instead of well-chosen fonts for headings and prefer to
use cut+paste and search+replace over more advanced methods (ssi, php,
perl etc).

/me realises this post is a conteder for cooker-off-topic-rant list

> Your web page is hideous.

My personal web page is :-). But no-one pays me to develop it ...

Buchan
