At p-ahlqvist.com the intention that the Internet should be experienced in the best way possible is the primary guideline. And in order to to achieve this one needs among other things a good webbrowser. Most of those that browse the Internet, do this by using Internet Explorer, but few are aware what they missed out on, and that they are putting themselfs in harms way.
Firefox is a webbrowser that looks and feels exactly like Internet Explorer BUT with a string of improvements that enhances the experience of the Internet. Firefox is free, and it takes only minutes to download and install.
Below follows a some pro's with Firefox visavi Internet Explorer:
Safety
Firefox makes your Internet experience safer, thus most attacks are aimed at safetyholes in Internet Explorer. Thats why you can reduce the risks by using Firefox. You should of course always use a firewall and antivirussoftware aswell.
Experience
Firefox is built on a more qualitative rendering engine. This shows websites more correct than Internet Explorer. The fact that this rendering engine uses webstandards that should apply on the Internet gives you greater possibilities to create better websites, and in this way makes Internet a better experience for all involved.
Tabs
Firefox simplifys the browsing with tabs. Instead of opening a lot of new windows, all links opens ups in tabs in one singel window. This makes it easier to overlook, and simpler changing between sites. Of course, this feature is possible to disable, and get the links to open up like it was Internet Explorer.
Popup-blocking
Firefox has a built-in "pop-up blocking" so that you might get rid of annoying adverts and unwanted material that usually pops up using Internet Explorer. Thow such an blocked pop-up, is of course, possible with a single mouse click. And also disable the function totally.
find what you're looking for, instantly
In Firefox, there is a unique Google-search function that acts like a "formfiller", types suggestions based on your input. This making you find what you're looking for fast, and without having to go to Googles website.
A simple webbrowser
In Firefox, there isn't lots of menu buttons, but only the buttons you actually use. If you have bookmarks in Internet Explorer you can import them into Firefox with a single mouse click when installing. Firefox is made to be simple, and those of you that are able to operate Internet Explorer will most definitivly be able to operate Firefox.

As there are som taste issues regarding which side to keep the navigation, I made the charcoal theme with a left hand navigation aswell.
Both template packs have also been updated with some administration area styling, and some edited code that do validate inside the administration area. If you're interested you could go have a looksie here or go straight to download here

Finally, I think I'm done. Here's the first 1.6 sNews template from p-ahlqvist.com. This is a modded version, so NOT the default minimal package which is provided by solucija.com.
This modded version is a variation of Keyrocks enhanced version. I have only added some MOD's to that, and sort of enhanced the enhanced version a tad. Atleast I thought I did, since I added the MOD's I find useful, and they are (including Keyrocks MOD's):
