I don't know, ignorance I could claim. Was unaware that this site or list
even existed until doing a wee bit on investigating.
I'm so glad I happened across you'all (Texas talk) however. Smile
I belong to another forum with some great folks who have helped me
tremendously in the past year to get past and move into the surreal realm
of CSS and Validation etc.
It took me quite a bit to absorb the concept! Now it appears that I have
been labeled the compliance stickler on that forum. I am often asked "why",
my response in "Because I can".
My site (personal) serves as my testing grounds. My pet peeve is, stuff not
validating............go figure. I love the FF Web Developers tool bar and
the tidy addon, whatever it is called! Great tool! That way I get to see
which sites validate and which do not. (giggle, even standards sites show if
not errors, warnings).
PetPeeve:
I wanted a guestbook, found one, installed it, then found out the darned old
php code was fraught with invalidations. Not knowing a thing about php, I
crossed my fingers, jumped in and fixed it! Took me days and days. I made
several mistakes!
My question is this, why oh why can't one who knows how to do those things,
build them to validate before they release them for public consumption?
How darn hard is it to specify the php to write out alt tags for images, or
table summaries in tables and so on? Excuse me whilst I growl,
grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
So in short, I am glad to be here, where I am not only folk, to whom it
matters.
Onward and upwards!
Now if someone or the WC3 would find a valid alternative for the "Onresize"
attribute! I would be a happy camper. BIG SMILE
I don't know how to get smiles in an email, forgive me.
