[WSG] first steps towards a valid html/css site

[commie coder]

hi all

i was introduced to this group by james ellis at a sydney php user group 
meeting a few weeks ago and have been lurking on this mailing list for 
the last week. i'm encouraged by what i've seen so far - lots of help 
and useful information, both on the website and the mailing list.

i maintain http://www.socialist-alliance.org and am making the first 
tentative steps toward making it a standards compliant site. i'm about a 
third of the way through making it a php-mysql site. my first no-tables 
page is here: http://www.socialist-alliance.org/css/notables_draft.html.

we are going to launch a new site for a new publication of ours over the 
next couple of weeks, and i'd like to make it standards compliant from 
the beginning. i'm new to doing css *the right way* (as you can see from 
my site), so any comments on what i've done so far would be welcome.

apologies if this is too vague.

cheers

justin
