RE: [WSG] staff page vallidation

2010-01-20 Thread Rick Faircloth
How would the list implement "standards development and implementation
through education and outreach"

if not by educating coders in developing standardized coding practices via
outreach through the list?

 

If not the above, then what form would the "education and outreach" that you
were looking take?

Hi list

Actually, accessibility aside - Marvin looks as if he is a CIT student doing
an assignment ... and while I'm all for helping a guy out with an
accessibility issue, doing someone's homework for them is a little different
when they have an entire learning facility and faculty available to help
them. That said - Marvin - this list is a great place to lurk and learn.
*smile*

>From reading his validation output, I must say I'm a little concerned that
CIT is pushing XHTML 1.0 transitional in a 2010 Certificate IV course...
*frown*

Prehaps the list can advise me though - I joined thinking it would be a
group focused on standards development and implementation through education
and outreach. However, all of the posts to the list since I've joined have
just been "please help me, my code doesn't work". Do I have the wrong idea
about the list? (Don't get me wrong - I'm staying subscribed - quite happy
to help people in that sense *smile*)

Cheers

Chris
