None of the pages pass the W3C validator. I thought valid (x)html and CSS was one of the goals. Practice what you preach. ;) BTW, I was *stunned* when I saw proprietary IE scrollbar styles in the css... Speaking of css, I found the site pretty unusable with any of the Plone stylesheets. Font sizes, box widths etc. in px units invariably suck and page layout got very squirrelly when text was zoomed (Edit pages were particularly nasty at 150%, non-maximized window). The textareas for editing content ended up being only ~1 inch wide in some cases, maximizing the window didn't always help much. em and % units are used throughout for other things, strongly suggest using them for font sizes and everything else as well. With some of the non-Plone stylesheets, font sizes varied from page to page. Zoom in, zoom out, zoom in again. Big pain in the arse. Consistency is highly desireable. BTW, all this was using a recent nightly build. Page content, including navigation links, comments on input fields, and editable fields, seems to change depending on the stylesheet, too, which I found very odd. I can't seem to find the link to the Pending Review list using any of the Plone styles, but it's right there in the others. With the Plone styles, ID numbers for new files are prefilled, they're blank with the others. On the Edit page for new image files, Title and Description are editable (and required) with the Plone styles, not so with the others. They're editable on the metadata page, but don't seem to be required at all. IMO, the stylesheet should not be directing some of these things. What is/will be the purpose of the calendar? If it has some future value, suggest moving it to the left column so the content area isn't so narrow. Not everybody has a monitor that can handle 1600x1200. If it's there just because somebody thought it was neat, then drop it. Next to several input fields is text like "If you don't know what this means, just leave it at the supplied value." Where can I go to find out what it means? Glossary? Help? If I don't need to know, then don't lead me on. Using a Plone stylesheet, I added an image to my folder, filled in all the fields except Title and clicked Save. It came back with the Title highlighted as a required field. OK, fine. Without looking at the rest of the page, I filled in the field and hit Save again. Boom, Attribute Error. Apparently, the browsed file name wasn't carried forward to the second page. BTW, I personally dislike the word "favorites". Is one of the ideas to woo IE users, or am I being a snob? ;)
