This site design was an attempt to properly think through the way I was going to lay out content and try to use best practices. It lasted quite a while, and was used as a template for some other sites I did.
Instead of using tables to determine the site layout, heavy use of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) has provided a more consistent appealing site. The whole thing was tied together using SSI and a set of CGI scripts as a (very) rudimentary CMS.
