Jan,
Thanks for taking a look especially since the thread on the mail list got
hijacked by Sherry's question.

A fine example of the question of why standards. On the one hand the page
renders in Opera, Mozilla and IE. But the code is a mess: no opening html
but 2 /html tags, spans which close but never open. Deprecated font and
b all over the place. Table elements with a wide array of varying
attributes.
Okay, time for another one of my world famous dopey questions: What does it mean
for a tag to be deprected? I've heard this term many times before and have
been hoping to figure it out through contextual cues. I've met with a stunning
lack of success using this approach so it's time to ask
render it to be
considered standard
That's my interpretation, so w3c.org for a better one.

Do you think there's a list on the w3c site of deprecated tags? Seems as if
there should be... Do you suppose I would find it under the term deprecated
tags?

Hi Sherry,

...only in the latest versions of HTML. If you stick with an HTML 3.2 or
4.01 doctype, you can use b all you like (and CSS as well, if you like).
Golden rule for choosing a doctype: Use the earliest version that meets your
Oh lord, Jon, I'm so flattered you think I'm adept enough to even select a
version. Well, maybe I did in a sort of a way. At least I tried to make things
legal or commonly accepted. I used DW 3.0 which (one would hope) has selected
a version for the user although one would also hope they would
Du-uh. The cold must be affecting my brain. I did, of course, mean the br tag.
Not deprecated? Phew. mops brow
Thank you.

Well, first, the b tag is for bold. And it is not necessarily deprecated.
The br is the line break, and it is NOT deprecated.
Not sure if there is

Mark,
Thank you, Mark. Very helpful.
Phew. The only one (I think) I've used is the font tag and I know I can replace that
by using CSS and H1, H2, etc. tags. I'm working on drumming up my nerve to redoing
the site with CSS.
In that vein, I do have a question: Can I do that conversion a page at

Ali,
I'm actually quite good about closing my tags, if I do say so myself. It fits
right into my obsessive nature. Also, it's something that requires absolutely no
talent or brains just, well, obsessiveness. In short, it's something even I can
do so I cling to it as a drowning man to a life
Perry,
Well you've just answered another of my dopey questions. Alas, I'd already sent
it out before I read your response. Yeah, br IS a standalone tag. I know that
when I use it but hadn't pieced it together when I thought of it in a more
academic fashion. So, bold is replaced by strong in

Thanks for the referral to the classes. My understanding is there are only three
tags I can use with NN 4.7X and that's a good place to start. I'm filing your
e-mail in the new css folder I just created in my e-mail.
