Web Page Converted to PHP

A fun project that was made easy by using Jed Brown's, (whose site is offline at the moment) home page and CSS stylesheet as templates with the guts from my own tbbrick.com. After I got all the sheets converted to php, then I found Amos and Papageorge's Easy-peasy PHP 2 page. Bless you gentlemen, may your tribes increase, if you want them to. My footer's on a separate php page called by an include. Can't do the header as the tabs have individual active markers. Hmmm, suppose I could do the software disclaimer, but will hold off for the time being.

CSS and Frames

I've been monkeying around with my web page, happily learning CSS. Got the thing validated XHTML Transitional and CSS via W3C. Then I decided I'd figure out frames and had fits trying to get the index page to work with CSS.

Between having no luck on finding a solution and having read boocoo on how crappy frames behave, I decided to leave my site no frames. Lo and behold, I found on Google this link to DarkBlue, aka Jonathan M. Hollin's blogpost on how to emulate frames. Even tho I'm not planning on using it any time soon, it is nice to have the hack.
