Minor website tweaks

Last week, I performed some minor work on my website. About the only visible change is to the formatting of the Date and Title of each weblog entry. The Date is now grey in colour, and the Title gets underlined with a green bar. Thus, multiple entries on a single day will be clearly delimited. (Okay, I admit I don’t make multiple entries very often, but it does happen!) I have been aware of the need to distinguish between the Date and Title for a while now, but I didn’t have the idea of how to do it (design-wise). I ended up borrowing the design from Chris Dunphy’s nerdsyndrome.com.

In addition to the above, I fixed the titles for each of the sub-pages under my website. This involved tweaking the Python script that I use to compile the pages. And each time I make a new weblog entry, the appropriate archive page gets updated too. So basically, I revised a lot of the glue that I use to put this site together.

And finally, as a minor detail of major importance, I replaced all link references to tea.math.ualberta.ca so they point to the current site www.madphilosopher.ca. The former doesn’t exist anymore, and this was necessary so that any graphics in my past entries will display properly.

With that, I’m hoping that the warts are mostly gone and that it all works now.
