Frequently Asked Questions:
What is a Cascading Style Sheet?
A Cascading Style Sheet or CSS allows fine control over the layout of a website independent of the sites content. The actual HTML of this page is almost entirely without layout specifications. See this page without any stylesheet applied (please note this is a separate file and not part of the "cookie" options.) On this page, users can choose between 3 different layouts. A (javascript) cookie enables the user choice to be stored, allowing their preferrence to be remebered thoughout the site and on susequent visits. This site uses CSS as a fun way to look at layout, however, CSS can be used to increase accessiblity to users with disabilities by having a text only version or having a large text version. For more information see CSS at W3C.
What does the name Paige mean?
Paige originally referred to a "page," or young attendant to a Lord and was usually a young boy. It started to become popular as a girl's name in the late 20th century.
How do I change the text size on this page?
Because this page is formatted with CSS (see above) you can change the text size using your browser's settings. For example in Internet Explorer, go to View -->Text Size. If you are designing a site, CSS is a great way to offer text-size options to users. For a great example, see Wired News.
Do you have a Blog?
YES! Not one to be left on the sidelines I have dipped my toe into the quickly moving stream of web logs (wow, count those metaphors). My Blog is called Sophista, check it out!
