I've now more or less settled on the style I want (implementation may
need more polish).
If anyone is interested the link is:

The first three page links are valid, as are all the music links. The
entries are *supposed* to be centred, but only Opera an IE7 do that
correctly as far as I know, and IE7 gets the vertical distances wrong
- I don't know if it actually does the span text at all.
Firefox and all the other geko based browsers seem to get everything
right except the centreing.
w3c validates as 100% html, and almost as good css - there are a couple
of webkit links which may or may not work!
Comments welcome.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
A general plea to web designers everywhere:
Either do ALL of your
layout (inc. colours) in CSS, and use HTML tags ONLY according to
their semantic meaning - or commit to doing as much layout in HTML as
you can, and only adding trimmings in CSS. Because if your webpage is
unreadable without CSS, it's unreadable.
This is what I'm trying to work towards. However, it's a steep learning
curve, and ultimately I simply want a website that is easy to maintain,
and looks reasonable on most browsers.
This test page is already dramatically better than the rest of my site,
but there will come a point of diminishing returns, and I'd rather make
music that websites :)
