Their current front page is 32985 bytes, while mine is 17844, plus another 5392 in the (cacheable) linked style sheet. This works out to a net savings of 9749 bytes (29%) on the initial page load, and 15141 (46%) for subsequent hits. Oh, did I mention that "the Yahoo! global network of properties increased to an average of 1.62 billion page views per day as of December 2001"? <http://docs.yahoo.com/info/pr/faq.html#yusq> Staggering. BTW, I went ahead & changed the header per Tom's request and implemented the inline lists, which sorta wrecked the layout in Netscape 4. To compensate somewhat, I added list-style-type:none;color:#bbb to the UL, which causes NN4 to display grey ?'s instead of black bullets. Not as pretty, but it's still usable. -- kevin c smith http://centricle.com
