OK I've done more changes/improvements. It's now a fluid layout. Since no one except Dave had suggestions on what to I went with his idea of two (mostly equal) columns. In this case the left is fluid the right is fixed.
I also removed everything except the latest release information. For the simple reason that more than that make the page unnecessarily long. After all anything older than the latest version isn't "Latest News". http://redshift-software.com/~grafik/boost/index.htm
I just glanced at the layout and strongly suggest to move the navigation bar to the left side. The webpage is adhering to W3C standards and should follow usability standards, too. At least I don't know many websites with a right-handed navigation bar?
I'm actually starting to wonder if a 3 column arrangement might be better. Some of the key links would be grouped on the left -- search can be pushed to the right -- news in the center. A really radical design would be to hotlink library docs from the left column. See http://www.w3.org/ for an example of this sort of layout -- just brainstorming here... Jeff
