Stuff

20:19 < ttf> I've got a common requirement.. I want to have a navigation bar on the left and want to display different content on the right
             side of the navigation bar based on which item I click on in the navigation bar. I discarded the idea of using an iframe for that
             after reading how evil they are..
20:19 < ttf> I looked at lightbox and thickbox but they don't suit me well..
20:20 < Wolfman2000> Two column CSS table?

20:22 < ttf> not sure. my further requirement is that I want to have an item in the navi bar which displays a page with a foto and a
             left/right arrow on the sides which will switch to the next/previous foto.

20:22 < ttf> can this be done with CSS only?
20:23 < ttf> wouldn't that mean calling a new page which also contains the navi bar every time I click on an item in the navi bar?
20:24 < Wolfman2000> You only want the content page to reload?

20:26 < ttf> not neceassarilly - but it seems that I would duplicate code (and have people download more) if I open up a new page which
             contain the navi bar every time I click on one of the items on the navi bar...
20:26 < ttf> I'm not having a personal preference here
20:26 < ttf> I'm just trying to do it "the best way" :)
20:28 < ttf> looking at other peoples sites who try to avoid frames, they seem to do have things like www.foo.com/news.html
             www.foo.com/pictures1.html which includes the navi bar - is this still considered good coding?
