In FF the code lines don't wrap... they just run right off into the black on the right (making them invisible, of course). As for the ideal line length, check out these links: [url=http://www.maxdesign.com.au/presentation/em/]Ideal line length for content[/url] [url=http://www.rightreading.com/typehead/measure.htm]Measure for Measure[/url] [url=http://psychology.wichita.edu/surl/usabilitynews/42/text_length.htm]The Effects of Line Length on Children and Adults? Online Reading Performance[/url] (long, but interesting) Those are just a few that I found. I don't really have a problem with the line length here (which appears to be about eight to ten words), but I wonder about the decision to fully justify the text. When you have lines this short, word spacing is going to be quite erratic with fully justified text. Line length is not the only thing you need to consider--you also need to think about consistency in word spacing. I wonder what the text would like left justified (ragged right). Let me do a quick experiment. [quote] In the example above you have a good deal of verbosity, but at the same time if you end up wanting to make a change to the display of your bakegoods template you will most likely have to open 3 different files to figure out where to make the change. The template names are really long but they are not actually very descriptive as to their functionality. A better option would be something along the lines of. [/quote] That's a sample paragraph from the website (I hope you don't mind) done ragged right. I don't think it looks that bad. You might want to try out ragged right and see what you think. Just an idea. All that being said, I don't find the text too difficult to read. I've just never been a fan of fully justified text, that's all.
