Hello Tim:
Please see my comments inline:

Florin, the templates in the new system are amazingly more flexible,
semantically correct, and allow you to move things around very easily
with only good knowledge of CSS. Please don't let the viewing of the
site at 800x600 be the determining factor here - as that is not even
on the radar as a viewport size that people use these days.
Maybe not for developers, but for every one person I know who uses a
desktop with potentially larger "viewport sizes" as you call it, to
access the Internet, I know 20 people who use laptops with small screens
and small "viewports". And, those screens get smaller every day...Too
bad because it is getting really hard for people like me to read all
that text on such small screens.
It is true that there are issues in every browser when you've bring
things down to a really small level, there is a bug which
It is not a "small" thing when we are talking about the landing page.
The very first page you see when you go to the suggested link.
needs to be corrected - but I would go so far as to say that the
foundation you are working with in the trunk is leaps and bounds ahead
of what is in either release branch. Please check out the trunk, and
ask direct questions about places where you may see discrepancies.
Where the project is headed - especially in contrast from where we
came from - means we're trending in a positive direction.
I was testing this in Firefox and Safari on a MAC and am pleased with
the rendering as long as you're viewing it with a viewport of over
about 1190 (basically any 13" Macbook).
Too bad I can't attach an image or two. I have a 22 inch monitor and no
matter how wide I make the browser window, the "Contact Us" link (only
one level "down" from the landing page) still renders below the bottom
most pixel of the right most column. I guess my "testing" criteria is a
little bit more exacting than yours. These kinds of "small" rendering
problems were not an issue - regardless of the browser - in older 4.x
versions.
Oh well...There I go "spitting in the wind" again :-(
Cheers,
Ruppert

Hello Ashish:
I wouldn't be so quick to encourage new users to visit this link. The
3x3 layout on the landing page still does not render correctly for at
least Firefox on a MAC. Not sure about other browsers. In a word:
"unprofessional".
Regards,
Ruth

Hello all,
I am using Ofbiz ecommerce module, the version is 4.0.
I am aware an upgrade to latest version would not be very easy so the
question is: does latest version offer more advanced flexibility of
templates and CSS regarding a more flexible layout for shop user
interface?
Thanks,
Flopa
