Please check UNC-Chapel Hill Computing History

If you have time, please give me suggestions for improving the UNC-Chapel Hill Computing History at http://ibiblio.org/comphist/

Since the November 6 meeting, I've changed the theme to Clean (from http://drupal.org/project/Themes), added a clip-art favicon, and updated the instructions in Help.

I like the theme "Clean" for the site except for one thing (so far)... vertical spacing. There's no spacing between content types in "Add information." Also, in list items, it changes <p> to <br>. I used [newline]&nbsp; [newline]<p> to get a blank line, for example, in http://www.ibiblio.org/comphist/help#add-content "Formatting options." There seems to be some difference in browsers. It looks like Google Chrome puts one more blank line in there than other browsers, but at least there is a break. And one other thing, it doesn't recognize HTML in content type descriptions. I tried putting &nbsp; at the end of a description trying to get a blank line and it just becomes part of the text. Similarly, I tried to put in a link to Help and the HTML code became part of the text.

Modules?

Hi Judy,

Looks like it's coming along. I'm curious as to which modules you have installed beyond core modules.

Are those Primary Links across the top suckerfish (drop down) menus?

With regard to the formatting issues, Julia might be a good person to talk to about the fickleness of code and browsers. I have run into very similar problems across browsers.
