Moodle1.6
Which areas in Moodle have changed?
The semantic structure of Moodle pages
For better orientation of non visual Moodle users it is important to build a semantic structure for all Moodle pages. The skeleton are the headers h1 to h3. Details follow...
The header
For the semantic structure of the Moodle pages the "headermain" area is no longer built with a div but with a "h1" element. (See header.html)
A link to the relevant Moodle Docs page is added. (See footer.html)
The "breadcrumb"
For better accessibility and more flexible visual design, the xhtml structure of the navbar (called breadcrumb) has been changed to an unordered list.

What is new in the Moodle 1.6 standard theme?
The following pages give you an overview of the changes in the header, footer and the CSS files from the actual 1.5.x to 1.6. When you open the linked pages you will see all changes made in that file.
You can add these changes to your theme header, footer and CSS files to update them for Moodle 1.6.
These html pages show only those parts of the files which are different, not the whole file. The line numbers of the 1.5 and 1.6 files will help you locate the areas. If you need to apply the changes to completely different files, you may search for the old (1.5) property in your files and replace it with the new/changed one.
I will update these files with any changes regularly (every day when possible) until Moodle 1.6 is released.
