Description

The web page style for the web site generated by Anakia/Velocity (http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/docs/anakia.html) confounds the concepts of page title and initial section heading. There is no facility for providing a brief title-like description of the contents of the entire page (aside from the very ignorable html page title displayed in the browser window title bar). In practice, therefore, we are forced to use the initial section heading for this purpose. This has a number of consequences:

There is no graphical distinction between other sections headings and the page title.
There is no way to label the content of the initial section.
The number of available levels of section headings is effectively reduced from 2 to 1 plus a fraction.
There is a gapingly empty piece of real estate at the top of the page next to the logo.
It looks and feels unbalanced and awkward .
It bugs me.
