Another area on the main page that could really use this is the shortcuts menu. There should be a "more" link with a new popup with ~5 additional shortcuts there. These menus keep growing but they clutter the site so keeping them hidden behind a "more" link is a good compromise and is used by other large websites with lots of secondary pages to link to (e.g., google.com "more" link for other search properties) Things like the artwork page are far too minor to be represented in any way on the main page, but it is nice to link to the handbook, ports page, and other important second level pages more directly with these javascript menus. - Murray On Sun, Jul 5, 2009 at 2:34 PM, Giorgos Keramidas wrote: > On Sun, 05 Jul 2009 12:09:20 +0200, Daniel Gerzo wro= te: >> I also tested with latest Safari on OS X Leopard where it works okay.
