I have tried it, and it isn't standard. Try p-ing it instead.

Well, I used it in my site, and it gave errors. Maybe I'm wrong!

Sorry, but...how did you try it? How did you arrive at the conclusion
that it isn't standard? It's perfectly valid (even up to XHTML 1.1)!
ul
liimg src=... alt=a good alt text //li

Thanks guys.
It now validates. :)
Another question, is there a float:middle or center?

XHTML Validation is showing 5 errors only.
3 of them can be fixed by adding 'alt' attributes to these files:
img src=http://troidus.com/wp-images/who.png; /
img src=http://troidus.com/wp-images/blogroll.png; /
img src=http://troidus.com/wp-images/other.png; /
The other two can be fixed by fixing the proper nesting of your tags. 
You have

p
ul
li/li
/ul
/p
...which you can't do. Close the p before starting the ul:
p/p
ul
li/li
/ul
...and you should be fine.

give it an a href= id=one and style appropriately. Hopefully it 
will work.

Thanks. That's all I needed. I cleared my CSS. But my XHTML validation
says something weird about the ul tags. Can you say what I need.
Thanks

Is it possible to have an img tag imediately after a ul tag.

  
  
No it's not  valid code

 If not,
  
  
what are the alternatives?

  
  
I'm not sure why you're using an image instead of sytled text here
(though it's perfectly  fine to do so and looks good, if it's text
though, styling it is usually the prefered method)

 Why are  you using an unordered list without any list items?  unless
it's for the indent?  If that's the case,  I would suggest either
putting the text  in a division instead with appropriate padding or
put  into the class mentext.


  
  
Is it possible to have more than on float right, float left tags, and
are there any alternatives.

  
  
Could you please explain this question?  You can use as many floats as
you wish to, though you'll probably have to use some clearing divs if
you have multiple divs with floats in them.  Not sure if that's what
you were asking though.
  
  
  
Is the display:block-inline supported?

  
  
Yes it is.  There was an interesting article on it's use to fix the
sliding doors issue on IE5 Mac a couple of months ago 
http://emps.l-c-n.com/articles/70/stuff-and-things

  
  
Can you guys comment on the design of troidus.com

  
  
Nice design,  looks good, doesn't validate though mostly because of
the ul's without list items, but also because you have a ul inside
another ul tag also.  and missing alt tags in images.   It's a
pleasing design, though personally I think the top graphic a little
too big since I often have my windows not full size, and the footer
still needs a little work.

Re: [WSG] RE: digest for wsg@webstandardsgroup.org

Hi,
just do this. Send an email from your subscribed account to 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] with set mode digest wsg (no quotes) as 
the BODY (not subject) and it will be so. And you will just receive one 
email every few days or so containing every mail.

WEB STANDARDS GROUP MAIL LIST DIGEST

If you have suddenly been thrown into digest mode and don't know why, it's
because your address was bouncing for at least 5 posts.
To revert to a standard subscription, please send a message to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] with Set mode standard wsg (no quotes) in
the body of the message.
To unsubscribe, please log into the website and select Unsubscribe from the

You can reach Russ and Peter the list managers at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more 
specific than WSG Digest

There are some problems with the Digest version. Our apologies for this. It
is the way that SmarterMail handles it so that HTML email and attachments
are not put into the digest as source code. We are talking with the software
developers about this.
