Hi,
It looks ok in lynx. Do you have any idea what part of the site goes pear shaped in your RISC os browser?
Ie, is it the fact that it uses CSS? Is it that CSS partially works and then things go bad? What other sites seem ot use CSS but look good in our browser?
thanks!
cheers

Hi,
One of the long standing complaints about squeak has been the squeak.org website has gotten out of date.
One proposal is at http://edoneel.chaosnet.org/squeak/index.html.
Well, it looks reasonably well layed out on Safari but on both my main browsers (yes, on RISC OS of course) it looks _terrible_. Maybe people don't care about that but it would be nice to have the page be in simple enough html to work well on any browser. I wish I were expert enough to make specific recommendations. It _is_ possible to make page layouts like this which will work in older browsers.
I really don't like the balloon graphic. I suggest a much better graphic would be an actual screenshot of an image with some interesting tools open. Making it a link to more screenshots of the tools - accompanied by some explanation of what they do, why they are useful etc would be helpful in explaining the system to newcomers. People like pictures.
And of course I expect to see the RISC OS port pointed to in the list along with unix, mac and that other thing from redmond.
