There are no tables in this website. All are done by CSS.
I started this website in 2009. Those days the recommended width is 960. Over the years, the width of websites are getting wider due to the increase in screen resolution and bootstrap is in vogue. However in 2019, I decrease the width to 900.
Body Font was
font:13px Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #333333
During those days, you are limited to just a few fonts and Verdana is my fav. However, now you can chose any fonts you like.
What makes this site slightly easier to read is this
line-height: 15px;
I hate the default bullets so I followed what BBC did.
line-height: 1.3em; background:transparent url(/img/v3/arrow.gif) no-repeat 8px 8px; padding:4px 0pt 4px 18px;
The rollover colour is not the default boring blue but some sort of crimson.
a:hover {color: #900;}
The blue colour scheme is following Skype's. I like it ever since I developed Skype's Singapore website when I was working for "a local ISP" which was their partner then.
