To simplify maintenance and usage, there are only three templates in this release...
...furthermore, there is only one layout for the home page - not the multi-layout left/right choice of the previous template.
The reason for this is simple... there are no tables. The old templates were based on tables, so changing the layout of a page was a major upheaval - completely affecting the order in which content appeared in the html. The new template uses css so layout is more or less independent of ‘source order’. Flexibility is built in - we don’t need to provide it as an option.
There are clearly defined content areas for each of the pages and the code structure is far simpler to follow than the previous template. Most content variations have been catered for - legacy classes etc. - but there will be some that have been missed. Please provide feedback to web-info@unimelb.edu.au about html content that doesn’t style correctly so that we can consider adding those styles to the central style sheet.
