I made a static version of the home page in Editor to sort out the starting size of certain elements and how big the grid should be, and decide on which elements should go as the screen shrinks (haven’t used RLM yet, I’m assuming it can make elements disappear at certain break points).
I also wanted to try coding the home page without tables, I think I’ve finally succeeded.
I’m using “display:table” and “display:table-cell” to make side-by-side panels adopt the same height – is this OK or would CSS purists complain that the word “table” is still used?
At this stage I don’t know a better way of doing it but forum members will be able to enlighten me if there is.
While fiddling with the position of images I found that using negative values with the margin attribute can move images fully or partially outside the container div, is using negative values a good coding technique?
Anyway here’s the new-look page: http://www.drivingnt.com/temp/static-la … ayout.html
I like the bright colours on pages put up by other forum members – is my current pastel scheme too muted and should I go for a bolder look?
Are the little images at the bottom of the page OK or do they look too busy?
My next step is to study the RLM tutorials then work on making a responsive version.
