Website Template v1.0

I’ve been putting together a few different websites that incorporate the same basic functionality in the navigation system. Its not a CMS, but rather just hard coded html and php which uses a lot of cool little things to dynamically create the navigation (sort of). I’m sure this could be way improved as I continually find new stuff to add, but I thought I would put up an archive of the current version.

The big thing is to setup the website in folders. These folders will define the names of your pages so make sure that they’re named correctly with an underscore for spaces. When I’ve applied the template to a few sites the biggest mistakes come from naming something wrong somewhere, so make sure you have a plan and stick to it.

This also includes other fun things like Eric Meyer’s reset CSS, ALA’s Suckerfish Dropdowns, and ALA’s vertical grid basic CSS. I hope to add more foundational base things in upcoming versions that kind of give an overall example of how to implement stuff. Mainly because I need that.

The markup on the current version isn’t the best, and the CSS could use some desperate work, but you get the point for the most part.
