This has to be the least usable/performant site I've ever seen.... and it looks like it's from 1995. I'm honestly terrified to inspect the markup/implementation.
Based entirely on this alone, I wouldn't touch this thing with a ten foot pole.
UPDATE: Holy shit, I inspected the page. This madman is using calc functions inline on every single element to handle scrolling. Because we can't trust the browser to vertically scroll through this basic web 1.0 layout. And that's the very LEAST of what's going on in there. This has to be an April Fool's joke, right? Some kind of elaborate Andy Kaufman-esque prank?
- lpghatguy 3y agoThere's nothing on this site using calc as part of scrolling the content. It looks like the background image is fixed in place with some JS, which is probably the source of the performance issues. The questionable stuff is definitely that everything is a table and that the links on the bottom of the page are divs with onclick handlers... and that selection is turned off?

- lpghatguy 3y agoThis has nothing to do with scrolling. They're fixed CSS rules. They remind me of the tricks we used to have to use for vertically centering things. It seems like these rules are from the site's page load animation. You can see it if you refresh the page part way down. It's not a great way to achieve that effect.
