that's mostly the conclusion I've made to myself: overkilled! not that I'm against JavaScript, but the website thing starts to get bloated, and we have no specific dynamic needs. while the advantage of JS in the HCL is clear (and a fallback for non enabled JS browser is easy to address here, and plannd), it introduces too many workaround to address various exceptions (anchors, ie6, general layout, ...). the main point when choosing that approach vs the table one was to have the menu always visible. I'll try to check with Seb to apply the 3rd (attached) layout, with scrollable layout-banner and layout-content. that way, we should overcome the "JS everywhere need" (apart from ie6, but that is acceptable) while keeping the menu always visible. scheduled next week, so everyone's comment is welcome in the meantime... cheers, Arnaud -- Linux / Unix Expert R&D - Eaton - http://www.eaton.com/mgeops Network UPS Tools (NUT) Project Leader - http://www.networkupstools.org/ Debian Developer - http://www.debian.org Free Software Developer - http://arnaud.quette.free.fr/
