  Re: traffic page changes?
 
(...) I thought about doing that, but... wouldn't the free-flowing intro text want to take up the full width of the browser window, and cause the three columns to be unnaturally wide or far-spaced? I'm skeptical that it would render the way we (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: traffic page changes?
 
And also, for uniformity, why not make the imbeded tables that hold the post info a fixed size? I know I am just blabbing but this line is really a blab to add more to message. I need 10% of to be original. :-X ~Jeremy! (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: traffic page changes?
 
This is a great, great compromise! Kudos! My only suggestion, other than this is way better than the gray version you have in the reply, is to align the "read once" paragraph to the edges of the three tables. Such as this: <table> <tr (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: traffic page changes?
 
(...) Ok, let's try that. Howzit now? I moved the text back up to the top and also removed the bold title that I'd added yesterday. (...) Verdana was the main change I wanted to make, but perhaps got a bit carried away with simplification. How do (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: traffic page changes? (a 2nd error to report)
 
Yes, the whole page now works, but it is a bit small. As I said before, the new layout is very nice and it makes Lugnet look more up-to-date, I mean the old one looks like it is 5 years old (which it is!) I would give and few extra percent of space (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: traffic page changes?
 
(...) My big suggestion: Put the intro para at the top again, right now you're wasting a lot of horizontal space farther down below it. Or if you MUST have it on the side, blowing a column, at least when you resize the page, don't resize just that (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: traffic page changes? (a 2nd error to report)
 
(...) I dunno - I end up with half the page empty, except for the paragraph you read only once. What if you took the "Past 60 minutes" column, and put it under that paragraph? Would that look too odd? Dan (23 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: traffic page changes? (a 2nd error to report)
 
(...) Whoops, I forgot that Internet Explorer likes to break words at hyphens. See if it works better for you now. I added a 'NOWRAP' attribute in the <TD> tags. The reason it was never an issue before is because the three (actually six) columns (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: traffic page changes?
 
(...) We've been getting rid of that old Times Roman and converting things over gradually to Verdana over the years. It was also using drab brownish gray colored table backgrounds that didn't really add anything graphic-design-wise. I moved the (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
