Trackback from Wiki : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geocities

Yahoo! GeoCities is a web hosting service founded by David Bohnett and John Rezner in late 1994 as Beverly Hills Internet (BHI).

In its original form, site users selected a "city" in which to place their web pages. The "cities" were named after real cities or regions according to their content—for example, computer-related sites were placed in "SiliconValley" and those dealing with entertainment were assigned to "Hollywood"—hence the name of the site. This feature has since been abandoned; however, a number of older sites using the original "city" system still exist.

In April 2009, Yahoo announced that it will close down GeoCities later in the year. The site is no longer accepting new registrations.

Actually tw and cn geocities was closed before 2009. Geocities.jp will be the only survivour after this year. If you compare their performence. You will find out Geocities.jp has much better services than others. They pay much effort than other countries. Even the service and the design layout. Geocities.com is still remain 2000s' performance before it closed...

Div Layout:Width,Padding

For those beginners for building div, non table html structure. We will easily get some errors on the padding and width setting. The main problems is caused of our 2 main browsers: Firefox and IE. They read div width and padding in a totally different way. In Firefox side, if you build a 600px width and 20px paddding div. You will get 640px width inside the div. But in IE side. If you make a same condition. You finally will get 600px width inside the div. But the div will extend to 560px. I will not go on discuss which side is right and wrong. Cause of IE 6 and firefox still are main browser in the internet. That is no sense which we igonre one of it. I suggested you to make one div for controlling the padding. Although this is a stupid setting. <div style="width:600px"> <div style="padding:20px"> Your contents here </div> </div> But it would be easy and fastest way for solving those 2 different browsers problems. Those problems are not only appear at div. Some of table td setting may be crashed too. Article:i-web-design|web design
