Frameworks

The website I'm working with (www.imdb.com) has one of the simplest framework one can use; and that is the 960 Grid System. Basically this type of framework uses a grid system based on a width of 960 pixels, and all the information will be put in that area. With this method the content won't be responsive to the window, that means if the size of the window is changed the content will stay in the same place, it won't move regardless the size of the window.

Probably this kind of framework is used because of the kind of content the website has; videos, images, lists, and text, so all these won't change its place, because it might not make sense.

A framework that I found is the CodeIgniter Rocks. It is a framework that when the size of the window is changed, the content of the website will change its position in a way that the website still looks elegant.

This type of framework may be applied to the IMDB website because as I said before when the size of the window is changed the content still be kept in an elegant position.
