HI all Well, I've been a lurker more than usual for the past few months; sending vague questions once in a while. It's finally time to pull the covers off our site. We launched Yahoo! Tech this morning. The immediate talk is about some of the Web 2.0 aspects. But underneath, we've tried really

Ted, Site looks great! Nice and graphical. I did notice some quirkyness in the Today's Top Features banner on the homepage. If you roll over the text in one of the panes onto the image (like rolling onto the pic of the dad with his kids after rolling onto Is Microsoft Your Only Option?) and rest

Hi Matt That was a bug that popped up in the last two weeks and we just didn't find a cure fast enough. Think of it as an entertaining interlude. We're working on that. My pride and joy is the comparison tables. I'll be posting something soon about them.

Yes! Those are strong. I love the Show Less/More toggle. I usually feel that too much information is given on those product detail pages, and it's nice to be able to hide them. It does look like the more div is containing a table that's a bit too wide, clipping the content on the right column in

Hi I wish I could say that we had a strong type strategy. It has shifted a few times. I removed a legacy font style sheet a month or so ago and favored setting a default size in the global style sheet. We then use percentages in various specific styles to bring the sizes towards the visual design.

The two p elements are display:block when I look at them. If you are referring to the lack of margin/padding, that is caused by the first declaration in your stylesheet: html *{margin: 0; padding: 0;} adding p {margin:1em 0;} would fix that. -Andrew On 5/2/06, CK [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
