New Homepage Layout

I’ve finally posted up the new css version of the homepage, which I’ve been working on for a while, not least because I’ve had to learn css layout to do it. Anyone interested in the more technical aspects can follow this link: http://www.glish.com/css/

The homepage has been through three versions so far - the first two were built using html tables and flash. The beauty of laying out with css is that it cuts down on the code which underlies your web page thus making it more efficient (i.e, it’ll load into the browser faster) and it is much better for people who use screen readers etc to navigate the web.

I’ve also cut out the flash content because it might look nice but doesn’t actually add any usability advantages to the site.

Now I’ve learnt enough css to lay out the homepage I’ll be working my way through the rest of the site, as I find time to do it.
