...and this was what i was talking about,
http://huw41.tripod.com/navbox/test

- after innumerable problems, which eventually came down to about 3 screw ups in the coding (one of which i blame on my deciding to do half of this after getting back from the pub last night : ) ), finally making the thing do what i wanted it to, to the point where i just need to adjust the color (must get used to u.s. spelling!) scheme, add links and tidy up images, for the thing to be ready for my site.

Sorry, just had to bathe in the smug feeling of having done it. : )

The thing that made me go into web designing was the fact that the company that my dad used to work for wanted a website, so I looked into it. Then, I found out that I enjoyed it. So I started fidling around with scripts and stuff and taught myself how to use it just by fiddling around. Then I found HTML Goodies, and learnt from there.

Yeah yeah yeah...

Actually, the dynamic menu for WebTech worked first time, until I decided to make it "better" :)

(if i get to the original question,)
I had an idea that i wanted to put on the web. I got hold of a cheap wysiwyg package, which didin't work right, and here i am.
I stayed because i love the mix of artistic creation and building something with code, and for the buzz of making something work for the first time.

Maybe you should actually build one with flashy 3D crap and give him the 56K treatment. It's for his own good.
