I'm trying to recycle the existing guide.xsl but much of it will have to be changed to fit the new layout. I have the main index.xml working if anyone wants to look at it. The style sheet needs to be tweeked a little though. http://curtis119.no-ip.org Some of the other pages work but the formatting isn't fixed. About, Get Gentoo and Social Contract(I added this to the jumppad). I'll be working on this all week and I'll give an update as it comes together. I have the handbook working a little but it's on a different virtual server. I'll try to integrate it into the main one by the end of this week so everyone can look (It's not very nice to look at at the moment). Aaron, are you planning on making this cascading stylesheet with multi .css files permanent? I think it would be easier if we consolidate it into one style sheet. Making a seperate style sheet for things like "about" and "socialcontract" and "docs" and "news" would make things to complicated when we could have one single css file that controlled every page. A seperate one for "print" may be OK though.
