Web Group
- Reviewed the latest code from Jon and Paul.
- We like what Jon has, but the height of the header and footer could be reduced to allow for more display of the view windows. Especially for Mobile. Possibly shrink the size of the TSSG logo to squeeze the height of the header/navbar.
- Paul had something that eliminated the flashing between pages, but only ran on a few browsers (not Edge). We'd need to include a polyfill library to implement code for most browsers. This idea needs work before it is useful for release.
- Lora suggests: To anyone who has not yet browsed thru the PDF of the book "don't make me think" by Steve Krug, it is worth doing.
