Pain in the CSS

January 16th, 2005 · by map · No Comments

It’s been a long day of messing with CSS for a Web site I offered to help with for the local free lunch program. I just copied most of the CSS from this site and stuck some text into it, and voila, a new site. It’s not much to look at, and there are sure some things I’d change if I knew how, but it’s an excuse to start getting my hands dirty with CSS. Here’s the site.

One of the things I’d really like to do is split the page into two columns after the centered info at the top. The smaller column on the left would hold a couple links to other agencies and notes about Web hosting services donated by Avalon Networks. They’re good folks. The second column would hold the bulk of the page text. It’d actually look something like this WordPress page, but it wouldn’t need to be quite so fancy.

I probably should’ve just done the page in straight HTML and not messed with the CSS, since I only anticipate there being one page at this site. But what the heck.
