for anything good to spread in a network it takes lots of small voices, 
not one big one. Nice one Trovester, (though don't forget to sniff for 
other (not windows) OS's)

If you were discussing how you implemented your website to be XHTML

But as you can see it's pretty thin at the moment.
I have added my favourite extensions, with links and short
descriptions to the customise section, and links to other resources
in the links section (funny that!).
I am looking for some help in writing some motivational words in the
about and why sections. I have outlined some sections I would like
in the why section but I would like some help writing it.
Also, send me information on more articles and favourite 
extensions/themes etc.

If anyone can help, you can either email me personally or keep it on 
the list.
Thanks
Trevor Morris

Not to sound like a party pooper, but...why not spend energy
contributing to the official http://www.spreadfirefox.com,
rather than fragmenting the landscape with a separate new site?
I'm all for diversity and variety, but I think what we need is
a concerted, focussed, single-minded effort rather than lots of
small competing ones...
IMHO, of course.

Re: [WSG] Semantics of Breadcrumb you are here links

2004-10-20 Thread Sean Naden
er, maybe it's my 'listless' disposition but why would you put a  
breadcrumb in a list? The usual gt; seperators seem ideal, and if you  
disable styles it is still a breadcrumb; what is the obsession with  
putting everything in a list?

Hi all,
Apologies if this has been asked on WSG before, but I was wondering
the general opinion on the most correct semantic way of coding
breadcrumb trails.
There's many webpages dealing with this:
http://www.simplebits.com/notebook/2004/02/23/sqxii_conclusion.html
http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=mozclientie=utf-8oe=utf 
-8q=semantic+breadcrumb

I've seen arguements for:
1. ul list
2. Nested ul list
Several lists nested (seems like a bit of a pain to me)
ul
 lia href=/Home/a
  ul
   lia href=/articles/Articles/a
ul
 lia href=/articles/file.htmlTitle/a/li
/ul
   /li
  /ul
 /li
/ul
3. ol ordered list
I suppose if it's a list at all, it's an ordered list?
4. dl definition list
such as used in this page http://www.baekdal.com/example.asp
(actually this is a good example of using dls for everything)
At the moment i've been just putting them in a p class=breadcrumb
or div class=breadcrumb and putting a / or  etc between each
link. This is not perfect, i know.
So what do you think? How do you do your breadcrumbs?
