CSS is the way to go - much faster loading = less bandwidth and less load on the
server.
As an aside, in viewing the source of the page, I am tickled by the hex
representation of the mailto tag, I see this so much in spam mail, but it is
really easy to parse.
I am in the process of converting all of my contact pages to a form which will
pull the email addresses from a database, and not exposing the email addresses
on the page.
My next project is to determine open proxies and zombie IP numbers from email
headers and lookups, hopefully will be a self-generating and self-healing (when
the relay is fixed) to generate my own dynamic blacklist for spammers. I am
learning a lot about Perl scripts and using a MYSQL 4 database for this project.
Work on this has been a little sporadic due to the great increase in domain
owners deciding to outsource their anti-spam/anti-virus filtering. I am
processing mail for 188 domains now, up from 75, just three months ago.
Current stats indicate approximately 38% of all mail I am handling is rejected
due to spamming, or quarantined in the case of virusmail. I continue to be
amazed at the less than 0.001 false positive rate, but even those are
recoverable.

Subject: New headers
Yes, I'm up at an insane time due to Passover cleaning and ideas in my head.
One
such idea is to move the header bar from the front of the HoF site from image
buttons to CSS buttons. The results look good to me, but I'd like a second
opinion. Anyone want to check out the test page and tell me what they think?

What I did was take all the yellow images from the top bar and make CSS
buttons
for them. I also moved the Sign In and some other links to the top. Sign in
will
be shown when your not signed into the system and Settings will be shown when
you are. It looks good to me on Mozilla and IE but I'd like to hear what
others
have to say and what they see.
BTW, this email was started at about 5 when I was on the computer. Should have
finished it then. :)
