Hi folks,
I've been coding HTML by hand since about 1995, and perhaps that's the problem... a lot has changed since then! I was recently called upon to redesign a website for an organization I volunteer with, and had to relearn everything I knew about site design (using tables for formatting, etc).
Please have a look at the page I am having a problem with, at http://www.cherith.ca/faqs.php. The CSS is located at http://www.cherith.ca/styles.css.
I've deployed the "equal height columns" CSS trick to get the sidebar and the main content area to be equal height with a white background. It seems to work well, except for this page where I am having display glitches in IE6 when I click on a named anchor (e.g. the shortcut to any FAQ question).
Questions:
1. Anyone else experience this, or any other glitches with IE6 or any other browser? (I've tried on Safari 2 and 3, and all seems well)
2. Any ideas how to fix the anchor glitch? A google search didn't find me much.
3. Does my host (Dreamhost)'s PHP serving seem excessively slow to you?
Images and formatting of other pages are all temporary, as we basically just copy/pasted our old site into this new template, and will be redoing content later. The old site had a dark background and smaller fonts, so the images look too small, have incorrect background colors, etc. We'll fix that next.
Otherwise, your comments and suggestions on colors, styles, etc. are welcome as well.
