Just finished a big change on the website - Pretty much all of the formatting is now in CSS! I tested it, and it works in all but very old browsers, so most people will be able to read it. It’s something of a different look too, but I kept some of the same elements.
Why did I do this?
With CSS, you can have one thing appear at the top of the page, but the coding for it can be at the bottom. This allowed me to place my text early in the HTML, so that hopefully search engines will like it better. I also changed from graphical buttons to CSS mouseover navigation, so no more need for the duplicate navigation at the bottom. I saved about 4K per page doing this on code alone; that’s not even considering the decreased graphics. All in all, it should speed up the site tremendously.
I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. Couldn’t figure out one or two things I would have liked to do, but that’s about it.
