Now I don't follow you. The only thing I was saying is that I think
prev-up-next and toc-top widgets are serving a similar role, so it'd be
nice to have them look alike.


ok i give in :-) lets keep them similar somehow, see a top-suggestion (:-)) involving an image though, at

http://www.bullitt.suite.dk/mod_perl_site/examples/top/top_ex.html


not sure if they (top-widget) should be kept left-aligned ??


very neat, I like it (the button). But it should link to #toc and not #top.

So what do you think, should we drop [toc] or [top]? or should we keep both?


Remember that perl.com is also a commercial company so they may want to
realize the user that beware, you are about to leave our site and go
into unexplored, unsafe grounds. Not we, why do we want to distinguish
exiting points? A user can always click back. Adding to the fact that
it's going to be very clear once we finish the look-n-feel-the-same design.


well that might well be, but from a user-friendly point of view i just like the fact that i the user can see beforehand that this navigation goes to another site (commercial or whatever) and i even think in our case more so, because it is so full of information and a new user might get lost inside the wealh of information. also it is not always true that a user just can click back (some sites redirect the back function to their own sites - well not those we link to of course .-))


But that's the whole deal about having a consistent look and feel. Believe me once user gets lost and goes out of our site, he will notice.

I doubt anybody notice where they are at the current site :) or :(


I agree though that we may want to mark specially outgoing links in the
menu, e.g. some small icon?


which ones are outgoing from the menu?

[EMAIL PROTECTED] to start with. May have more in the future.

Alternatively I suggest to have two menu bars once for the internal content and second for outgoing links? I dunno, just an idea. I'm not sure whether [EMAIL PROTECTED] should go down. Unless someone decide to do the news on our site :)
