Well Here We Are

Welcome to OrangePhilosophy! This is the second incarnation of OP. We used to be located at www.orangephilosophy.blogspot.com, where you can find the older entries. The site still needs some tinkering, but I'm a bit busy now with grading for the finals. Expect some changes in the coming days, and an increase in the amount of blogging as we all finish up our finals and grading.

I'm checking this on a different computer, and the text seems to be going way off the edge to the right. I'm not sure how to fix that. It didn't do it on my computer.

Now it is doing it on my computer. Hmm.

That's odd, hasn't happened to me yet. I can probably just tinker with the borders a bit and pull them in.

Unlike most of the other style sheet's the 'Clean" sheet which you have selected uses absolute positioning. You have to change the #content and #link id's in the style sheet to float instead. I've done this for you, and set the content to float right. After you get a few posts I'd suggest switching the #content id to float left. From a user interface perspective most people scan pages from left to right, then top to bottom. Since your mostly concerned with content first and navigation second, you should move the content to the left.

Much more information than you wanted I'm sure. Also anyone using IE 5.5 should upgrade to 6 asap. IE 5.5 had all kinds of wonky style sheet problems.

Like you intimated, Matt, a bit more than I'm prepared for, but, if it fixed it, that's fine with me. But, like I said before, I will read the Bradley (?) material and get clearer on some of these kind of issues. Thanks....
