[Per Einar Ellefsen notifies that all headers look the same]
what i have done, is: - boldfaced the h1, h2, h3, h4 (which i think we should have done anyway). - included the path/breadcrumb for (_only_) this particular item : APACHE_SRC (the styles for this local path/breadcrumb is of course the same as the one at the top of the page)
so what you get is first of all more visible section headers (because they are bold) and secondly a complete path for the current chosen item. with that path (and its links) close to you, it's easier to see where you actually are and therefore easier to navigate the content _and_ therefore easier to understand the context.
well, click on APACHE_SRC in the table of contents and you see what i mean.
this solution is not so visibly seperated as you requested,
but on the other hand it is user-friendly IMO. in fact,
having just taken a look at it again i think it looks rather
cool, also because it will (should) scale well if there's a
long path.
As Per Einar has mentioned this solution won't "scale" where headers are long.
More over, I always try to make a parallel of our site with a real book. Where the nesting is clear by changing the size of the title and sometimes italizing the deepest level sub-titles. But the italized text may read bad on certain browsers if the font is not good, so we should stay away from heavy italizing, other then for special constructs in the text (e.g. filenames).
Therefore I suggest not to overdesign and simply fix the stylesheet to do the right thing. Currently all headers are of the same size, which is wrong. Is this correct:
h1 1.2em h2 1.1em h3 1.0em h4 0.9em ??
anybody familiar with the default HTML sizes for these (talking about relations between two adjucent sizes, not absolute sizes)?
