Still constructing

The Taekwondo site is having a complete makeover. Gone are the javascripts for image rollovers & menus. Good riddance; they were pretty, but search engine spiders choke on them creating the necessity for a sitemap to get all the pages properly indexed. The site isn't supposed to be designed for search engines, it's for you the visitor and a sitemap indicates the navigation of the site isn't what it could be. I hope you find getting around the site easy and some information that's useful of you're training in Taekwondo already, or interested in finding a bit more about it before starting.

The new design uses HTML & CSS for the menus and image rollovers. You're looking at the basic design here at the blog, the rest of the site should switch over to the new design this week.

The CSS driven menu requires a list of links in HTML to work. For the pages not included in the blog, I'm using an include file so I can edit it all in the one place. That won't work with Blogger though, so to save myself time the menu is complete even though not all the pages are up yet which means 404's until they are done. Patience my young apprentice.

Credits for all the places I visited to learn how to form the HTML & CSS are linked to in the about page. I've tested only in Firefox 2.0, IE7 & IE6. IE6 caused major headaches and if you're still running it, do yourself a favour and upgrade to IE7. If you haven't got XP (or don't have a valid XP license) Mircosoft won't let you run IE7. There are doubtless ways to get around that, but by far the simplest would be to ditch IE altogether and get yourself onto Firefox. There should be a link at the bottom left of this page if you don't know where to get it ;)
