qwghlm slightly revamped
October 31st, 2003I’ve updated some of the code here and there, visibly there’s not a lot of change, but I’ve been busy making the documents fully XHTML-Strict compliant. I’ve done away with tables completely and now use divisions which are positioned via CSS. This represents a further divorce of content and style, which has become a interest of mine of late (the philosophy of separating the two, allowing users to dictate presentation, making data more portable and easier to process automatically, is quite cool, and gives online media enormous potential), although there is still some style dictated inside the markup, especially the blog, but I’ll be making improvements to those later.
To test the new markup, I’ve also added in a few extra stylesheets, which experiment with different layouts and colours, and now show how configurable the site has become. You can change the style with the drop-down on the left (and the site should remember your choice as well…). Apologies to NTK for my ‘homage’. Let me know what you think of them, and of any new bugs you see.
[Update: Sorry, I’ve just re-read that first paragraph and it veers dangerously close to talking bollocks…]
