<WARNING a="Robert Haris Coffee" t="Warm and friendly - contains attempted
humour">
Some days you wake up and just feel like shouting at the rain don't you?!
Today is just one of those days... if you're sick of my rants already then
add a filter to your plonk list and move on...
</warning> (Those with case sensietiv linxu browers please upgrade to
something more standard)
(Those programmers with issue about my spelling get busy and start writting
a plug in for your oss mail reader that spell checks incomming mail
automaticalllly - how hard can that be? - I've yet to see one)
============================================================
<RANT a="JVC Mini Equipment" w=="Read with care, don't consume to much
Maccona while reading. Laughter makes you choke and gives away to your boss
that you're not infact working but reading CLUG posts.... AGAIN!">
Ok, you read this far you must want it both barrels!
<b><font size = "Please refree to attached CSS" class="Should be in school"
id="is there where I put my credit card number?">Use frames if you want
to!</font></b>
<!>I love iframes.<!> They mean I can make simple object like pages that
all get plugged together to show up as one page.
I can't say that I notice the frames downloading any faster or slower across
my Telstra connection than my Telecom one.
If you have a problem with my views then put your Nike's on and go for a
birl on your Trango mountian bike! (Don't forget to grab a bottle of Coke
on your way out the door becuase you'll get thirsty, put your Versus on
because to much sun hurts your eyes and coppertone will keep your skin silky
and smooth!) Take your Vodafone mobile with you so you can call home (or
the AA) if you get a flat tire.
Now... as for the person who had a rant about the problems of frames and
ads... Go have a look at www.australianit.com.au and you'll see they put
all their ads in frames. Why you might ask? Because it lets geeks like us
filter them out.
If you want me to promote Cisco 827 routers to the world then just come and
ask! Give me one to play with, I'll promote it... I'll bitch about it
untill everyone goes and gets one to try just to prove what an idiot I am!
After than I'll go and flick on my new Sony TV with the kewl software I just
downloaded for my Sony PDA that turns my SONY pda into a remote control and
watch the latest James Bond movie (btw where do I get one of those kewl
BMW's).
CCS was simply invented to make websites more data entensive than ever if
you ask me.
It also completely takes user control away.
If you want a world where one size fits all then why don't we all just
upgrade to windows 95 (with the standard gray colour scheme) and be done
with it?!?!
TABLES
The best websites I've ever seen are done with nothing more than a bunch of
tables. Problem with tables is most people don't know how to use them.
Most developers seem to have no idea how a computer actually works ("that's
the guys in 'infrestructures' job to know")
