Please ignore the last paragraph, as it only pertains to the aesthetics. I need to hear any objection to moving to this format/layout. I would like to make the move as from a site maintenance point of view, the current site is less than optimal. Each page that is displayed, is assembled from a minimum of 5 different fragment files, joining to make any one page. As the formatting is different depending on the type of page, adding information to, or changing the alignment on one of the fragments often has adverse effects on other pages. If we do move, then this theme and html can be updated quite easily as patches come in. If we get more themes, we can add theme selection as a option on the page itself, similar to http://www.csszengarden.com/ So please as always your feedback is welcome and wanted. Regards. Ken. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.15 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJSs2KvAAoJEEmjl6JfXwqUCFQP/iVL3VV6Wah/z3c89axdMZQy RJfl2Z4aU0Oysx9Fslad5BINXUDBv8cH0u6kI0H5HuY6FJ1RdwtXpgi4ZgVWFihN pQhayxfEcou+dh42AhO7bALCxiZhEryXoP/WfNdwIHgNnBgruwsYR4W4ucBWNJg+ 7vvbL46zartAMWqWJmKWQ3bB4kWW3h48XA/YZwXUlFJjgdK0dobaNq1aiPPmNKK3 b1VTiNse/uwdB7fe7GW3t+fkPsc2uctaKa9VrXKwlTNMYDIqE7/9j4X8U0peVxKw j/1eAANGmNWT0hANsvu4y37rSYlnBdbbQGCixt+b43A6f90pkHO4vwfO9k4R0vdB eexO4nyQtCUYssZlQSxVsIppcTVp0nemlKouDIBLGzrcfReyG+rGmNSQpNbdrqsi W3PNlqOrJC7gqvtWnjRVzCeda6HdwA3hPamlv4pgeDRoYWMsV8rbHqxrGgIWzV+G GJ8Q8PuCpj+rWiEtahWlZCFMqad2Q5N1YkZs+H1aHgj8UbZtFPutaumVQuiMPtFQ SDHY2EX1zW+bSCJa2GzbpV7w3BXbQdAl+c5LVxa3rdphK5CeOx92XS7C9ehePBUz N4L+XwVeRq+n4dythFv14NY928S7tyXwuov/oiOhWpD/77eMYLwZCmohkJm+4HsP IH7UqZ4XjJooZG2nQnM8 =mXpH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Hpr mailing list [email protected] http://hackerpublicradio.org/mailman/listinfo/hpr_hackerpublicradio.org
