New site template - 8/7/2007 14:35:42   
Hi
I made a site template. It doesn't have any content, but I might find a use for it later.
What do you think?
The Link
It works in the latest versions of FF, IE, and Safari. It's probably a little broken in IE6 and below, and I bet its broken in IE Mac. It has valid HTML and CSS.

I have a small problem with floats, though. [removed] Now fixed.

One thing I noticed is that you've got several H1 tags on the page. Semantically you should only have one H1 tag per page. More than that would be semantically incorrect plus it might dilute the SEO effectiveness of the tag since Search Engines place a lot of weight on the sole H1 tag.

Not sure how to get around the border issue - I guess that's the standard behaviour as the heading is a block level item.

It seems to fix the issue if you make it an inline item by adding a display:inline rule into the H3 stylesheet rule but you might need to check that the margins and other behaviour is ok with it no longer being a block item.

I guess the other solution would be to float the images right!

have you tried margin for the border instead of padding?

Thanks Tailslide!
display:inline fixed the problem. I also changed the extra h1s into h2s.
