The Jason Kottke’s Portfolio is an XHTML page that position its content side by side, at the same distance, using the foundamental (for the horizontal way , but not only) CSS float property. This content is composed (except the last three text-only divs) by equally width & height boxes divided in a description part (a […]
Like the two previous CSS design from CZG, the text colums that contains the demostrative sections are putted in the template with an absolute position. 1/2 difference: the distance of this colums from the top of page (few pixels for the even ones, about half of the page’s height for the odd). 2/2 difference is […]
Unbury from the Web Archive limbo, the nDroid could be one of the first sites with horizontal layout ever appaired (the Archive shows 2000’s pages). The pixel-build fantasy of its creator illustrates a in a panoramic context – a very strange wide house – an harlequin mix of text and images that let ask ourself: […]
As we saw in the photographic example, an horizontal layout could be an original way to create a design portfolio. It’s the case of the guys of Sonido, who use an old nested table to place a very wide image where the transition from a section of a page to an other is very pleasant. […]
The second (CSS, naturally) extract from the CZG. There aren’t so much layout differents from the previous: the sbs colums – that uses a CSS position:absolute property – this time are more thin and the last section is wider then the others to be tall as the others. A big image, tall as the page, […]
Eolo Perfido is a good example of how the horizontal layouting can help photography to show its best in the web world. Portfolio’s pages displays a series of equal height and equal width phographaps inserted side by side in table layout, and includes a simple menu on the left to switch over the other horizontal […]
The Dmitry Kirsanov Studio’s website – horizontal version born in 2002 – represents its contents with an old nested table layout divided horizontally in two parts: in the part below a title and image represent several projects, in the part above a small text completes the description. In some page, like “Our offer†these paragraphs […]
A fast return into the old nested table layout. Modular People plays for me the ideal horizontal way: a low quantity of text and a big images. Interesting are the vertical menu -tall as the page- at the end/right of the site, with internal links that carry to the sections; these are composed by a […]
The first CSS site presented in this blog is the first of 8 horizontal design featured in the legendary CSS Zen Garden (from now CZG). One of the caratheristic of this project is that the text, only demonstrative, never will be changed and so there aren’t problems with the growth of DIVs height as with […]
A very long collection of interesting web design resources, subvided in chapters. The code (composed by frames, table layout, not standard list) must be traduct from scratch in XHTML + CSS, but the alternation of titles and lists, that are disposed in multi-colums way, is interesting as the fixed footer for the site menu and […]
