Design challenges:
- Fixed height/width design for a dynamically created page
- If there are too many pages, the left TOC gets too long and breaks the look and feel of the design
Changes from version 1.0 (fa07)
- The content area was enlarged to 660×400
- Some colors were changed
- The top navigation was taken out to save real estate
- The entire template, left navigation, header were “framed” using borders/background colors
- Button colors were changed accordingly
- Toc changed to more traditional, “case-like” look
- Default image issue (where a different image flashed for a split second fixed
- Background image (world map) made lighter for readability
