hey, i never said i'm perfect ;)
yes, there are a few things that i have learned since i originally wrote
this site and that i haven't had time to apply yet. i don't think starting
with a H4 heading is such a problem, as long as there isn't suddenly a H2
heading, although i'm sure you'll be able to find that somewhere too. but
i do take your point. i'm working on that one.
the BR tag is completely deprecated in xhtml 2, so be assured that this is
something i will be doing differently in the near future. as i said
before: that's why i still use a transitional doctype. it allows you to
be imperfect, to cheat, if you want.
yes, the breadcrumb doesn't really make any sense on the frontpage and is
unnecessary. i put it in for now for a consist look. good point, though.
i could just take the Home link out, leave the red bar. as i said i'm
still tweaking.
