[Bf-webcontent] What I've been doing..

[Bart Veldhuizen]

Hi Doug,

are you using Internet Explorer? I haven't been able to test the code 
for that.

About your remark: my idea is that we do not only use these blocks for 
e-shop products, but also for content-related stuff such as 'related 
links' or 'action links' such as the download link at the top-right of 
most Mozilla.org pages like http://www.mozilla.org/products/camino/

I do feel that placing these blocks inside the content as opposed to 
inside the header (which I quite like by the way; it would be a waste 
to paste a banner in it) would be much more effective in grabbing the 
reader's attention, wouldn't you?
