CMX JumpStart: Brasilia
What better role model for a layout than the planned city of Brasilia, Brazil that has a place for everything and everything in its place? You'll feel that way, too, when you develop a web site with the latest CMX JumpStart, CMX JumpStart Brasilia.
CMX JumpStart Brasilia is fluid, both in its outer and inner DIVs. The outer DIVs are completely fluid and conform to the width of the viewport. The inner DIVs are fluid, but with max width to keep reading lines comfortable, and min width to keep the layout from collapsing in narrow windows. There are styles for two or three column options that can be controlled from a single CSS file. The first tier tabbed navigation uses the popular Sliding Door technique, and the second tier navigation uses an unordered list for greater accessibility. Both navigation schemes provide for a current page marker.
There is a "fat" header that allows your company to showcase important content and/or branding. The PNG allows for the editing of the images in the monitor screens if you wish to stick to the computer theme. In lieu of images, you could also put text in either the right or left floated areas of the header for a real "above the fold" showcasing of your message.
The package includes documentation, an extension, tutorials, various style sheets, three PNG documents for branding the graphics, and a starter page. Of course CMX JumpStart Brasilia meets the W3C standards for CSS and XHTML, as well as the WAI accessibility requirements, too.
CMX JumpStart Brasilia is available for $29.95 to non-members, but is absolutely free to CMX subscribers. Read more about how to make it yours.
