- The new look of the site :
- After having built my pages brutally (one writes and one passes to the next line with "BR"), I tested cutting with the Frames.
- I find the system practical because each framework is independant, but the formatting, inside each framework, left something to be desired !
- Then I launched out in the programming of the tables. I drew my pages under Excel (not problem, all is visual).
- But when it is necessary to pass to programming HTML of tables, it is necessary to make play imagination (one has under the nose of the beacons "TABLE" "TR" "TD" and the result should be imagined !)
- One will say to me : use a generator WebExpert style. It is true but where is the pleasure ? I seek can be the complication but the pleasure of admiring the result, the foot !
- Then, for the moment, the site is built with tables inside Frames (all the pages are not rebuilt yet. Example, the page which you have under the eyes).
- The futur :
- It will be necessary to replace Frames by tables, because certains Browsers do not appreciate.
- Moreover it seems that the search engines do not admit the pages made up of Frames.
- But to obtain a valid look (positioning of the menu, posting of the current events, etc) it will be necessary to handle some small images in the shape of lines and colums.
- Then, go in a few months.

- The result (at 10/10/2000) :
- You have under the eyes, the new look of the site, with its tables, and without the frames.
- The search engines will be content !
- The total operation of the pages is different ; before one made ravel a text without the remainder of the page not moving
(favours of frames), whereas now, all the page ravels. It is not more practical, but all the professional sites use this system, then...
- An advantage of the tables : one can modify the contents of part of a page, without touching with the program of this page : for example, the current events are stored in an independent file, and are posted thanks to a very small program in Javascript. Thus the maintenance of the site is some facilitated.
- For the moment, only this zone ACTUS is programmed thanks to Javascript, but, in the long term, all the contents of the site should post this way (when the look is solidified, or almost !).

- A new experiment (at 10/17/2000) :
- After the removal of frames, here absolute positioning !
- Look the Reception page.
- This page was built by positioning zones on the page. Beacon "DIV" makes it possible to give the coordinates, with the pixel meadows, of each zone to be placed.
- This method makes it possible to be freed from the complexity of the tables. I used tables inside some all the same zones, like the central zone, for example.
- The advantage : one can position images or texts anywhere on the screen, without undergoing the constraint of the tables and the system line-colums.
- A good result (at 01/31/2001) :
- All the pages are finally programmed in absolute positionning. I benefitted from it to put all the menus and the Infos in small Javascript files, to facilitate maintenance.
- For those which use Netscape, this marvellous... navigator does not appreciate much absolute positioning, with beacons DIV. It places certain menus at odd places on the page (with version 4.70).
- But I all the same succeeded in making it admit the files in Javascript...
- Good surprises (at the date of 02/14/2001) :
- My last tests with Netscape version 6 (version known as final), seem promising !!!
- Beacons DIV seem accepted better. The blocks in Javascript are posted, them also, and them scroll bars of Netscape function.
- The images are posted with little meadows at the deisred place !!! In short, this new version seems to have a behavior more logical, but all the same irregular (the posting of the tables still leaves dreamer !).
- On the other hand, I carried out some tests with Netscape 4.75 : it is a true catastrophe ! Nothing goes. Even not the general menu, programmed in Javascript, and recognized well by Netscape 6.
- And after all that, one criticizes IE5, et Microsoft !!!
