W3C Releases Drafts For DOM L2 And More

Posted by timothy on from the standards-to-choose-from dept.

TobiasSodergren writes "People at W3C seem to have had a busy Friday, according to their website. They have released no less than 4 working drafts (Web Ontology Language (OWL) Guide, the QA Working group - Introduction, Process and Operational Guidelines, Specification Guidelines) and 2 proposed recommendations: XML-Signature XPath Filter 2.0 and HTML DOM 2. Does the this mean that one can expect browsers to behave in a predictable manner when playing around with HTML documents? Hope is the last thing to leave optimistic people, right?"

    You're forgetting the tags that are the basis of strong web design, like marquee, blink, bgsound, etc. Script tags are also very useful, for scrolling status bars, alerts that tell you how cool the page is, text that follows your cursor, and anything else you can copy/paste from annoyinghtmlforaolers.com
