Strange appearance explained

24 Apr 2007 — categorized in web

My site will look strange for the next couple of days, as I work on the design. The old design was table based, but I’m switching to a css-driven layout. Expect stuff to move around at random, change size or disappear completely.

I work in two steps. First I make sure it works in Firefox. Then I take a look at Helena’s computer’s Internet Explorer, stifle a cry, and try to make it look at least decent in IE. Everything would be much easier if browsers actually followed set standards.

I don’t need any bug reports now. I’ll let you know when I’m done so you can say how the page looks in your operating system/browser.

    This appeared when I commented the post about game mastering and bass playing. Don't know if you know about the problem (or even want to know) but I think I should inform you either way:

    Thanks for letting me know. I was working on that file today, so maybe you just had some bad luck. If you keep getting the same error, please let me know and I'll look into it.

    I got the same error just now. I'll fix it right away.

    Now it seems to work again.

    When I go to you page anew these days I get as standard a very small text Not a big problem for me, since I'm used to use ctrl+arrow keys to change the text size.

    But I guess you should know. It looks bit strange and might scare away some people.

    Is it only me. (And I have only tried Firefox)

    Thanks Sven, I didn't know. I think I solved it. Is it better now?

    When I have a bit more time I'll rant about browsers, web standards and accessibility issues.
