The first time I thought about moving my links from the bottom of the page to the left-hand side, I change my mind because I thought it would be a lot of wasted white space on the left if you scrolled down the right-hand side. However, since the page itself doesn’t scroll, only the columns of text – while other columns remain where they are – I recently realized that I wasn’t thinking things through properly. So, I changed my mind back again.<\/p>\n
I may end up tweaking the links at the left a bit more, but things are okay for now. (I played, briefly, with putting in some headings – but it didn’t look right. I’m also not sure if the links section doesn’t detract too much from the journal entries themselves – but I’m not sure how to “fix” that at the moment without negatively impacting the links.) Luckily, with my CSS, server-side includes, and my Linux text search and replace utility, modifying all of my pages, with the exception of a few things I had to pay individual attention to, was a breeze.<\/p>\n
I also had to hack things a bit to force IE to not display useless horizontal scroll bars for the links column when the browser window was a certain size. I’d forgotten how to do that. Fortunately, I’d already blogged about this so it was easy to do a search and learn from my past experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
