Let's face it, the what-seems-to-be standard layout for webpages is plain boring and repetitive. Most websites coded fall victim to the trend, placing all navigation above/below the header, or to the left/ right/both of the content. Need some examples? http://phaize.com/Ebb%20Empire/ (Designed, sliced, coded by Riceman from Rapitex, Javascript navigation by myself...sadly) http://vimmedia.deviantart.com/art/VIMMEDIA-web-105202705 http://vimmedia.deviantart.com/art/VIMMEDIA-web-105202705 http://vimmedia.deviantart.com/art/VIMMEDIA-web-105202705 (lost my coded version, sorry)
You get the jist, standard positioning of navigation.. Looking into the future, it is quite possible we are going to see a cloud-orientated computer, that is, a computer thats primary storage and what-not are stored on a remote server and accessed via an active internet connection. An example of cloud computer is Google Docs. With the steady increase of the level of integration between offline and online, it's inevitable that standard computer operations are going to be coded so that it can be internet dependant when an active connection can be sustained. Without getting into the issue of bandwidth (i'm australian, 12GB / month != me being happy), discuss the possibilities of a more KDE/Gnome/Mac/Windows/etc. based web interfaces. Examples will come in time, my home server doesn't seem to want to work, and I'm at school.. eg using text/ the use of both JavaScript and CSS to code navigations in odd, yet noticeable, places. Putting a "taskbar" styled naviation down the bottom like facebook, using a little box up top-right, having div tags to emulate a frame, etc. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ -- You received this because you are subscribed to the "Design the Web with CSS" at Google groups.
