Sorry for today’s layout upheaval. There were a number of css bugs that needed fixing and problems that only showed up in Internet Explorer, which is not available in my setup. For once, it was not all IE’s fault. Those nifty new navigation-cum-language-changing bars were more difficult to implement than I had thought. I learnt a lot about the obscure science (or art?) of clearing floats. (If you you’ve never heard of it, be glad. I won’t even try to translate the term into French.)

Thankfully, with the help of Root at the 404! and the great people in the #wordpress irc channel the worst errors seem to be corrected now. How, we aren’t quite sure. Or in Root’s words:

I am reading your css but to tell you the truth I have never really understood what is holding your layout together, so I am looking for variations in something I do not understand anyway

Well, neither do I. :-)

    You should have a look at www.mandarindesign.com/
    Meg seems to use magic with divs and stuff. I don’t understand anything about it (or hardly) and just copy/paste. A great site!
    By the way, I discovered yours yesterday and loved your bit about eggcorns. Had never heard of the term. Thanks for your interesting blog
