Test comment. November 30, 2004. Using Firefox on my computer at home - laptop monitor set to 800x600 resolution. On a small monitor I get a horizontal scroll bar. When I am scrolled to the left to read the main column I can still see most of the right column. I don't think I miss any text or links but I sometimes need to scroll to the right to see all the text on some of the right column entries. The right column shows up in the right place. Comment registration works. All good.

Test comment 2, November 30. Still at home, using laptop. Using IE this time. Both columns appear, side by each. Navigation fine. Comment registration seems to work.

A couple of little things. In IE the column borders and the horizontal borders - between posts on the main page, between the post, the trackback section and comment section on the Individual page - appear as a dashed line. In Ff is see a dotted line. Curious, not a problem. In IE the there is a button for the Bloglines feed. In Firefox, there is a text link.

I looked at the main page in Firefox with Sage and all three RSS feeds showed up. Comment - the buttons are centered in the right column. Is that the look you want. The orange xml feed buttons don't say which is RSS 1 and RSS 2. But someone who uses RSS regularly will figure that out fast or their aggregator will pick up the compatible feed.

Correction to last comment re RSS feed buttons etc. In both browers there is a bloglet link - no button or graphic. Then in FF there is a blank space - nothing for Bloglines. In IE there is a Bloglines button graphic. Then in both browers there are two orange buttons. One says XML summaries and one says XML. Being new to RSS I am not sure what each one means. As I said Sage identifies Atom, RSS 1 and RSS 2 feeds and they all seem to have the same posts, same content.

Test comment four for November 30. Viewing and commenting from work. Looks good at 1024x768 on a 17 inch monitor under Firefox.
