I think that the order of the page is off, because it doesn't flow nicely in linear order from most important to least. At the very least, the news (as the thing that is updated the most) should come before the list of links. This is easily accomplished using CSS-P (CSS2) to place the page components in proper two-dimensional position while still allowing the linear page order to make sense. The Lynx rendition of the homepage follows this message, in plaintext. --Kynn #Technologies | News | Search | Contents | Footnotes | RSS The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Leading the Web to its Full Potential...
