City Stages Redesign
Citystages
Late Friday afternoon Kinetic Communications launched the redesigned website for City Stages, Birmingham’s World Class Music Festival.
The biggest step taken by this redesign is moving the site away from table-based layouts to a more flexible CSS-controlled layout. XHTML 1.0 Transitional was the markup of choice, and all pages are valid, sans the flash app for “Recent News” and some as-of-yet to be cleaned up markup in the database from content added before the redesign.
Another new addition to the site is an XML feed for the latest news items. The Flash app under latest news also pulls content in from an XML file. Be sure to subscribe to the XML feed if you are interested in attending the festival and want to keep up with the newest acts as they are added.
