Shoot! If only the creator of Hammerhead read this mailing list. Oh, wait... Hammerhead works fine in FF 3.x. I use it daily. Several people have had problems...
I know one of the top performance recommendations is to reduce the number of web requests. I use the YUI compressor to compress css and js into single files...
Bill, Some thoughts..... The problem as I see it is that it is an optimization problem of minimizing network time (transfer of the smaller per page resources) ...

I'd only recommend this if you want your first page to load as fast as possible (when a users's cache is completely empty). After that, external references...

Unfortunately, it's not always that easy to move code down below, but i agree, that better handling of JavaScript is a good idea for many open source projects...
Hi again, Interesting development (and solution to the strange login redirect). It turned out that a plugin (which shall remaion nameless) was causing the...
Hi, the JSLint tool in YSlow doesn't work for me. It just displays a (Untitled) page with the content "undefined". - Tried it on several (quite different)...
