For me there is not so much difference except that wxcode-notfixed.css 
works correctly with all browser while wxcode.css sometimes does not... 
so the wxcode.css was introduced to keep the site "compatible" with the 
old one as Otto asked me.
I understand that it's not feasible to continously change the stylesheet 
from the menu so tomorrow I'll create a cookie which autoselects the 
favourite stylesheet of the user....

well, the problem is that in any case the "pseudo-frame" (a "block" in 
CSS terminology) in the top part of the page will always react badly to 
character-size change in the browser of the user: I changed the 
"topframe" CSS style from height: 19% to height: 10em; and as you can 
see browsing the site there is not much difference.

I called the alternative style "wxcode-notfixed.css" because it does not 
have those "position:fixed;" CSS attributes which makes wxcode.css look 
like a frame-based site ;-)

That would be great !
Please do your tests and let me know...

Thanks ;-)
I hope that all wxCode developers will update their components ASAP to 
reflect the new site changes...
