Robin, May be I was not clear. You can change whatever you want in the templates. There is no design at this moment! Scratch what you see and make a new one. The only requirement was to keep the navigation (which is very minimal) as is, while you can decorate the navigation any way you want (these are just hyperlinks!). The use of Splash library for widgets was just to make it easier to construct and maintain the site. If you don't feel like using it, fine but please make the templates maintainable in the text editor. In any case if you look at the templates, they are bare bones. So it shouldn't be time consuming and of course it's not insanely hard. I think you didn't look at the source before saying what you've said. _____________________________________________________________________ Stas Bekman JAm_pH -- Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide http://perl.apache.org/guide mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ticketmaster.com http://apacheweek.com http://singlesheaven.com http://perl.apache.org http://perlmonth.com/
