Ooooooo….

There’s a thunderstorm right now. The little weather gif in the corner is showing lightening strikes. It looks cool. :-)
I can hear the thunder boom outside. I love thunderstorms. Thank you, Thor!

Adam’s down at Pioneer Courthouse Square to hear Kerry speak. I hope he and his friends don’t get drenched.

Good news, and…

The good news is that mommymonster.com is now much more “styled” as far as CSS goes. I ran into some strangeness with some of the browsers, but for the most part it all works OK.

I tried out the DHTML scroller and found it not to be a suitable solution. It, and all of the ones I found, work by moving the external page first into an iframe and then moving the iframe contents into a div. Doing so loses all of the header info in the external page. That meant I would have had to move almost all of my pages — including this one — to pop-up windows. Ick, and no thanks.

mommymonster uses iframes and javascript. If you use Opera… oh well. Deal with it.
