We now have a template that hopefuly lives up to these guidelines. We can now tweak this template (just right-click on the page to view the source/template). Note that you can add {MENU} to the template as it is not there yet (this is "navbar" as described by Pizzasgood).Simple guidelines:
No frames
Keep formatting and content separate (may be possible through xml, I've never tried it. Definitely possible through creative php use)
Keep styling separate from content (using CSS)
Keep a single navbar file and include it in all pages (PHP or JavaScript. PHP preferred, as JavaScript can be turned off)
Try to rely on JavaScript as little as possible.
Keep a simple, nice look. Think Google. Nice, clean, and fast.
No ugly tables. If you have to have a table, make it decent looking.
The actual page using this template can be seen here.
Please post your suggested template as an attachment or point to a URL that uses your suggested template. Thanks.
See this for a discussion of colors. Puppian has already started a few threads about documentation, the most recent of which is here.
