So this is my first “technical” post. I’m tired, otherwise it would be more technical, with like, code and file names and stuff. Check back later, I’m quite sure edits are on their way. Meanwhile, there’s some tidbits about what my design has been through after the cut.
So the other day, I managed to figure out the whole background thing on here. If you’re using a “good” browser (modern, and not IE), you can see that the background for my site is not an image. CSS Gradients – they’re good things. I found a couple sites (CSS Tricks and The Art of Web) that helped immensely.
Tonight then, I figured out the navigation bar. That was a tough one to wrassle – Firefox wanted to scroll horizontally because of the drop shadow, Chrome did everything pretty much right, and IE just wanted to mess everything up. And still is. As of now, it’s using the image background, and I’ll have to make some for the navigation, except that’s going to have a different look than other browsers. Then I had to figure out why nothing was staying in a normal order – have to register the menu or something. It was strange.
Oh, and my main navigation is going to have slightly different looks in each different type of browser.
testing my comments….
