It's far better than advertising in your email signature.

Actually, the way to solve annoyance 4 is to change your attitude.
Telling someone to change their e-mail client is like telling someone
to change their browser, and we all know you can't expect that to
work. Besides, Gmail may be fancy but I doubt it is very accessible.

Your message implied that the message from Marvin was a disguise and
that his true intention was to advertise some service.

FIY, webmails like Yahoo, hotmail, MSN and many others auto insert 
advertisement at the bottom of the email and Marvin was using hotmail
- there is nothing he could do about the advertisement accept unsub
from hotmail. If it bugs you, you have the following options"  1)
unsub; 2) make a  complaint to WSG admin, have them block members who
use yahoo, msn, hotmail and so on - let's pray god that your voice is
heard and your existence at WSG is essential to the WSG existence so
that it makes certain your compliant be heard and action be taken 
accordingly by WSG admin; or 3) be tolerate; nobody steps on your toes.

And I would like to ask, which one annoys you most:
1) people who use html email with his/her big company logo and listed
20 lines of the service he/she offers 
2) people who didn't turn off vacation notice
3) people who don't trim their messages in reply
4) people who uses hotmail or other webmail services and is innocent
like Marvin but being accused by you

Everyone should use Gmail, it would solve annoyances 1 to 4.


but then we get a new annoyance, invariably.  people who post two or 
three times because they're not seeing their initial message from gMail. 
   I vote for "just be tolerant".

Almost - it is designed to group collections of form elements together,
usually because they are related to aid comprehension of the form.

[WSG] Petition (Particularly for UK members)

2006-11-25 Thread Rob Kirton

As an advocate of web standards, and following the introduction of the
Disability Discrimination Act in the UK, I believe that UK Government should
at least adhere to the standards which they in theory enforce.

If in agreement and you wish to endorse a petition to remind them of their
obligations, please visit

But a form IS a block-level element. The more accurate answer would  
be "because that's what the DTD says".


It's certainly not as arbitrary as that. The form element is a  
container for form controls and as such has nothing to do with  
presentation. All it indicates is "treat the enclosed controls as  
inputs for the script at X."
