Digging About Under The Hood

I’ve spent the day (Well, not the entire day…) getting down and dirty with the code for the site.  The main structure is all in place and theres been some work done on the colours.  It’s a bit like using a wordprocessor really, get the blocks of substance in the order you want and then worry about tarting up the fonts and colours.  It definitely was the right thing to do, starting from scratch.

You learn a whole lot more from doing.  Even though a lot of the constrution has been cutting and pasting from about a dozen differnt sources, never type it in if you can paste it from somewhere else, you need to know why you’re putting what where.  Saying that, the browser no longer detects a RSS feed from the page…

The link is still there but there must be some code missing from the page somewhere.  Examining a kosher theme to see what’s in there should bring the answers.  So the index page is on it’s way to being done, many other pages left to do, including ones with forms on, which is a whole new ball game for me.  Should be interesting.
