Hello friends and Jerome, Thanks for the response. So the reason i am using javascript, is because although media queries handle viewport changes, its adaptation is does not completely work in some scenarios. Eg. the sidebar scrolling area (for when there's a lot of things on that topic), would require a fix height to get the overflow to work (or else it will stretch along and will no longer be a "fixed sidebar"). However, if we have a fixed height, during viewport size change it would cause an issue (of it no longer being a fixed sidebar since it's longer than the viewport). i think there is a couple other issue that prevented me from using straight up html/css, but I can't think of it at the moment. Let me know if you have a better suggestion! Additionally, I want the sidebar to be resizable at least a desktop/tablet level where there is a good amount of width so that if you're more concern on reading the additional info, you can get more space for it. The great thing (or the idea behind) the sidebar was to allow supplemental info to be viewed along with the content (think Microsoft SmartGlass if you've learned about that aha). But the issue is that the size of a sidebar is not always optimal for reading long contents, so i want it to be resizable to accommodate. So this resizing thing will also be done via jQuery. In any regards, I have been to resolve most of the issue and it seems to work well atm (let me know any bugs that i missed). Again you can check out the working demo that i'm working on at: http://jssolichin.com/xwiki . Unfortunately the code behind is a bit ugly right now, and need to be cleaned up. My next step is to finish up the navigation (the mouse over event revealing different sections and the icons indicating content on each section) and making it look like the mock up. Most of use are using either OSX or Linux. Are you following I am. Which distro? and oracle or openjdk for java? What module are you trying to build exactly ? Most of the times you don't I'm trying to build your Lyrebird (from its source) to learn about creating VMs. I think I am able to build it now actually. I am going into the lyrebird directory and running "mvn clean install -Phsqldb,jetty" to build it. But I am still not sure what to do next? Can you point me in the right direction? Thank you again!
