Site template enhancements
After playing with Google AdSense and Amazon Affiliate code, I found that the size of the template was just wrong, so I've gone through and made it slightly wider. This allows for full size banners and more text in the width of the page, which I think is a bit nicer.
I also found that there were a few problems with IE6 (as per usual) so these have been fixed as far as I can possibly fix them.
Also, you'll note the styling on the tag cloud to the left, this is much nicer design-wise and also the line-height has been increased as IE6 (again) decided to render the text too close together.
Finally, I've added the Amazon e-store. This is a real pain as Amazon in their infinite wisdom only provide:
- a direct link to the store on their site, or
- a frameset to embed the store into your own site, or
- an iframe (which is what I've used) to embed the store into you own site.
Now because of this, you have to either set the iframe to scroll if it gets too big or make the frame tall enough to handle lots of data. Why can't they provide an API so we can do what we want with it and not use a frame?
Finally, I fixed that damned date problem I was having way back when.
