Well, part of this is how ugly it looks with a gray outline in that nice |
33 |
purple background, and part of it is how we need somewhere for subnav to |
34 |
go, by subnav I mean the "FAQ | Search | Memberlist | Usergroups | |
35 |
Statistics | Profile | You have no new messages | Log out" links the |
36 |
forum has and the links we'll need under each toplevel section of our |
37 |
site, say you click on "About"...at a minimum we need to link to |
38 |
philosophy and social contract from there...and all our toplevel apps |
39 |
could make use of this, bugs, packages, and archives for instance. |

Well, the horizontal scroll bar is ok with me since it allows us to |
48 |
maintain the integrity of the design on the screen, but I don't |
49 |
understand what vertical scroll bars are being displayed there for...we |
50 |
should _never_ have vertical scroll bars, and only have horizontal |
51 |
scroll bars when the content is too wide for the display area. |

I can create xsl from Aaron's code in about an hour and I'm sure we can |
63 |
come up with a box to use for testing, I'd just need to talk to |
64 |
Ramereth. |
