Wearing my (admittedly old) web QA and accessibility hat. First, if we're updating, then please don't let the update be pre-1998 legacy (aka "transitional") markup. Second, and more important, it loses the (imperfect but decent) cleanness and accessibility of the current site. The page has lost flexibility, so the right hand side - including all the useful links - disappears off the browser below a certain width. And the smallprint is hard on the eye: body text should be what the user has selected as comfortable to read. And (to me) the sections/headings are less distinct. Having said that, I see some improvements on the old site: in particular your use of headings, which is better for automated tools and for things like screenreaders. And moving the links to the end in text-only mode is good, though a single "jump to navigation" at the top would improve it. -- Nick Kew Application Development with Apache - the Apache Modules Book http://www.apachetutor.org/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
