He also said the side bar navigation design in boxes makes you want to click on the box, yet with the style sheet design you have to click on the actual text. I agree that's a bit awkward.
akward, but you'll soon get the hang of it :).
It's actually possible to put some JavaScript that will make it so that the boxes themselves light up on mouseover, and are clickable. It involves putting a mouseOver and mouseClicked event on the <TD> tag that represents the box.
-1 on using JS for usability improvements. If we have usability problems we should solve them, not to look for workarounds which don't work across all browsers.
If you think that boxes aren't good for navbar, we can keep the text underlined in these boxes. Then users won't want to click on the box.
This can be done without loss of compatibility to non-JavaScript browsers, too (although people using them will have to click on the link, not the box).
