Hey! I found some "Power" on the power search page. I had failed to maximize the window or scroll to the bottom, (very far down). I would think the last thing you would want to be moved from the top to bottom when a window goes from maximized to not maximized, is the key functions of the page.

Don, Like the tab impl. It looks nice and does improve the usability very much. What Joachim said is correct: Use putty.exe (or whatever your SSH client is) to ssh into crosswire. Then cd to your sandbox and update it with everyone else's commited changes: cd ~sword/html/biblen

I concur with Andrew on all his observations and with those who commented on the color scheme. The colors were never intended to be permanent. My main concern was to create semantically marked up HTML so that we could do all the style through the external CSS. I took a few minutes this morning to

Possibly make more of a contrasting color scheme. The top menus are a muted blue on a blue background. I agree. It would be good if those menu items acted as tabs and the tab for the page you are on would be different from the rest. See how Google does it, http://www.google.com/ . Also take a
