I've been adding in a few jQuery additions to this site recently, and will be adding a few more. Nothing will stop working if you don't run JavaScript, I'm not that ignorant ;) You'll just notice that on the sidebar on the right, some of the lists are now 'closed', click on the plus/minus sign to open them up. Also on the single posts the comment form has been hidden and if you click on 'Leave a Comment' it will appear (I wonder how many comments I don't get now with people not realising it's there…?!).

I've still got a bit of playing to do, but just so you're aware, a few things may change. Hopefully for the better :D

Any thoughts on the comment form though? I like having it out of the way until it's needed but obviously don't want people to think that the form has gone. Time to have a bit of a think I guess. All opinions/thoughts welcome :)

    The scrolling action works great in FF3.

    Personally, I'd leave the comment form in view as it serves as a visual prompt to the reader that your posts are open to comments.

    Hiding the form and putting up the extra barrier (of an extra click) would only make things harder for genuine visitors who might want to leave a comment.

    Point taken :) Will remove it in the morning.
