Hi Shane
It looks to me like a simple, clean page that loads fast because the graphics are 
cached. 

Now that you've worked with some css, you should consider creating an alternate 
version of your silverlake site without the flash.  The download times for your site 
are painful, 43.33 seconds with a 56k modem for this 
page:http://www.theinnatsilverlake.com/residences.html and 41.44 on the home page.  I 
bet you could get a similar page with a download of 15 seconds or less with css.
Use the son of suckerfish brethren for your dropdown menu.
Ted

Subject: [WSG] The appearance of Frames without Frames, only CSS


Wow.  Cool.  Awesome!
Okay, okay, I am excited about something that others may find trivial.  
But, I am a "newbie" to CSS & XHTML and just finished my first site 
using both (http://www.theinnatsilverlake.com/).

Now I came across a site today that "wowed" me.  I found it on Andy 
Budd's list.  The site that I am referring to is
http://www.firewheeldesign.com/portfolio/shiningcity1.html

To me this site rules.  The header, footer, and all common content stay 
on the site without refreshing the whole page when going to a new page 
(like frames work).  This is something I would love to add to my 
arsenal without having to use frames or iFrames (they're a mess).  It 
appears to me the designer is doing this with CSS (I could be wrong).  
Is this so and, if so, how?  I do notice this in the code source for 
the page:
<div class="SwitchBox"> and in the CSS.

Thank you for your time!
