Visually Integrated for Enhanced FunctionalitySaturday, September 02, 2006I have started the process of visually integrating this blog with the Rietta Solutions web site. Following an idea from Michael Meadhra's "Creating a pure CSS horizontal navigation bar," the navigation bar now consists of an unordered list and CSS formatting. This change significantly reduces the size of navigation bar at the top of each page, both visually and in code. More importantly for this blog is getting the template right. While there are some work-of-art blog templates available, none of them quite fit what I needed here. Fortunately, Google's Blogger allows the publisher (that's the blogger) to fully customize the template with normal HTML, JavaScript, and the Blogger markup. Getting a basic template is not so hard, but getting it right takes a bit more effort. This project is a work in progress. I plan to have everything converted to proper XHTML and CSS, but that will take some time as there is still a lot of legacy code floating around this domain.
