CSS/ XHTML redesign of Adaptive Path explained
Doug Bowman has redesigned the AdaptivePath site using CSS and XHTML. Highlights of the redesign include:
Drastic reduction in use of images for titles, subtitles, navigation, and blurb text.
File size of the home page HTML dropped by 56% (20.9 KB to 9.2 KB).
JavaScript rollover effects in navigation eliminated and replaced by using CSS hover states for simplified tab- and subtab-like navigation.
Pages can be toggled between several variants of two- and three-column layouts simply by changing the body class. The thing that impresses me the most is the reduction if the home page file size by 56%. That's a faster download for the user, and a huge saving on bandwidth bills. (here's the old version for comparison).
