Page style survey

I need some advice here:

Nowadays most sites like this present their main page in "blog" style, like http://aplawrence.com/Blog/fullstyle.html

Should the index page here (http://aplawrence.com) be presented that way?

I kind of prefer that way, but I think you need to make a visible difference between each post; for example, maybe make the title have a different color background, so it is easy to see where the next post begins/ends...

On my Treo 650 (Palm based PDA), I get an error on each page from Javascript: "Handler could not be removed". Any chance of making a PDA friendly stylesheet?

Thanks,

Bruce

Oh, I hate this stuff :-)

What page? Any page, or just some pages?

Seems like every page - must be a global. Sorry about this. It is very nice to be able to bring up the site to do searches from the phone though.

And is it all style sheets? Have you tried switching to plain, etc.?

When I click on another style, it does not do anything on the PDA - it looks like it is going to do something, then it just sits there, not loading anything, or switching to another style. I do not think the web browser is 100 standards compliant.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them. I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.

Specific links that take you to pages that allow you to purchase the item I reviewed are very likely to pay me a commission. Many of the books I review were given to me by the publishers specifically for the purpose of writing a review. These gifts and referral fees do not affect my opinions; I often give bad reviews anyway.
