very interesting reading.

How do you suggest having the menu stay in one place while the
content part scrolls?

is a technical answer.

reloading the mind-set, so a fixed position menu is no longer important
produces much better results.

In TOP, make your link like this:
<a href="javascriptarent.top2.location.href = 'location_top2.html';
parent.main.location.href = 'location_main.html' ">Link</a>

really?

but if you've got text or pics that are more than a page long, ppl will
have to scroll back to the top to then visit other pages on your site. And
remember that the vast majority of monitors are set in landscape, so you
don't really have much vertical space to work with.

Or are you suggesting that all pages should only be one page tall - at a
fairly small resolution - say, 600x800?

Or, perhaps repeating the menu over and over again all the way down the
side of the page? [I *was* thinking of only having one menu across the
top...]

I'm interested in what's considered the "proper" way to lay out a page.

TIA

That completely depends on who the page is for, and what they want to
accomplish with the page. Without that information, there is no way
anyone can say "this is the proper way".

how would the page builder know what constitutes "a page long" in the
browsing environment?

are they?

what effect does monitor orientation have on window shape?

While there are situations where such features are desirable, I suggest the
WWW is not one of them.

no idea what you mean by 'proper'. each page presents its own challenges
depending on its intended content and/or purpose.
