Yes, both the front and history page are updated.

I think this layout makes unreasonable assumptions about the browser window width, and looks terrible when viewed in a slightly less wide browser window. Here's an example screenshot: http://www.xs4all.nl/~weegen/ss.png Note that this does not just affect people who use 800x600 or smaller resolutions. It also affects people who don't maximize their browser window to fill the entire screen. For example, people (like me) who use tiled window managers often split their screen up into two equal-sized side-by-side windows (each containing one application such as a browser). Personally I find it extremely annoying when websites make me scroll horizontally for no good reason (this is especially the case on the version_history page). As for the links, I agree with Victor; changing link formatting is yet another symptom of overly eager webdesigners' trying to control every last pixel on the screen because their precious design "depends" on it, while breaking usability for users who use a less common configuration. The website should just provide structured content and leave it up to the user's browser and preferences to do the final formatting. Eelis
