No. HTML pages are HTML pages. XHTML pages are more like XML. But ultimately, the only thing that is XML is XML.
You really aren't lsitening to me. My site is "non std compliant" because I made it that way. There's absolutely no sense in taking the extra time and expense to fill a gap that doesn't exist. And that is exactly the mentality behind the zealot mindset. They cower at the foot of "compliance" without ever even asking themselves, is there any need for such extra time, work and expense? I need to drive a nail. But we want to hold meetings on whether I should use the roofing hammer that I already have on hand, or wait until a suitable sledge hammer can be developed. You code to meet the need of the user, not to meet the standards of the tool you just WANT to use. I don't go out and buy tools and then try to figure out what I can build. I decide on what I want to build and I use ANY tool that lets me do it, and the one I'll use is the one that does the job in the quickest and most efficient manner. For a specific example that you've cited: my site (so you think anyway) would not be easily scalable in size. But it was known from the beginning that it will never grow beyond it's current size. Not ever. Not under any circumstance. The whole thing was written, start to finish, in one evening, to meet the needs of one specific group of people. And that ain't FireFox users. Government works the way you think. And we see the results of that group-think. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Firebug" group.
