Site Status as of 2008/01/09

Site Standards

 

This site uses XHTML and CSS. This means that this site may not render satisfactorily in all browsers before Firefox 1+ and IE6+. Sorry, I cannot test this on non-Windows platforms.

 

2008/01/09

 

Added new "Interests/Your Money" section. Tried to write cleaner XHTML/CSS code but IE7 refuses to implement CSS correctly. Still using structural work arounds for IE7 problems. Firefox 2.0 - I love you.

 

Fixed id-tag on "Interests/PhotoComp" that trashed CSS styling of photo composition menu.

 

2005/12/17

 

Site update has been completed, i.e., pages updated for XHTML/CSS as opposed to table layout. In addition some content was deleted.

 

Every effort was made to maintain current search engine references.

 

Deletions:

  • Visuals/3D Hitchcock
  • Visuals/3DEM
  • About/Resume and cover letter
  • Interests/Books
  • Interests/Day Trading

 

Developer's Notes

 

Objectives:

  • Create CSS text navbar and photoNavbars
  • Create CSS text crumbs (manual - no server side or javascript)
  • Remove tables in favor off CSS style layouts (there are only 2 tables in the site)
  • Validate pages to XHTML 1.1 Traditional
  • Use relative positioning throughout most of the site
  • Use absolute positioning where needed (hiking pages).
  • Learn CSS and Dreamweaver workflow
