This site is written using style sheets, which I learned from the O'Reilly book HTML: The definitive guide which tells you all you need to know and more. I picked up advice on javascript and css from the 'Visual Quickstart Guide to Javascript for the World Wide Web' from Peachpit Books.
My favourite browser is Mozilla Firebird and the page displays fine in that; Opera comes a close second but has some minor issues with the style sheet font size. It works perfectly in versions of Internet Explorer 5, 5.5 and 6. Netscape doesn't fully support style sheets yet so it displays in a different form in that browser. Linux Users will be happy to know that it looks good in Konqueror for the KDE desktop too.
Mozilla also produce a very good mail client called Thunderbird which you might like to try.
Do you feel that there should be one, open, standard for web authoring which would mean that your pages would look broadly similar in every browser? If so, you may be interested in visiting the website of the Web Standards Campaign
I'm beginning to get more convinced by digital signitures and encryption - my software of choice for this is GNUPG. Public Key available on request.
The specified font for the site is Georgia, followed by Times New Roman. I like Georgia as my default font for word processing too and it can be downloaded from Microsoft's font page.
If anybody spots something they think they should get a credit for which I forgot (especially the rainbow line at the top, which used to be housed at Womyn's Web Graphics) please contact me.
