Mercury State

I redesigned Sol's navigation last night with a little bit of borrowed code from Wiz. He uses this code quite a bit on his personal site, SeveredLogic (Sneak a peak at v3 of Wiz's site.). It is very nifty and again it shows the power of DHTML, JavaScript, and CSS. In fact, it has inspired me to go buy yet another five-ton book and learn more about DHTML. Coding is really simple once you learn the syntax of the lanuage(s).

It is just about imposible to be a good webdeveloper/designer without knowing all the tools availble. DHTML can do neat looking stuff, but who cares about neat stuff that does nothing other then look cool. There is some real function that can be added to a site. Example: Wiz and I just coded a 'very rough' for SunsetStrategies.com... the entire site is one page, 21k. The user never has to load a second page... using DHTML the whole site is there, just not 'visible'. The user clicks on something... and they are there... no download time at all. This is the way it should be.

Hopefully today, I will get Sol's site finished up... do a little on Project X.... and clean my messy room.
