Okay, I'm wrong, but I'm not a Troll. Sheesh. I just got to turn my attention to the standards again since the last time I digested them. What the heck is XHTML anyway? I'll check that out as well as getting more in depth with CSS.
Web Developers should be paid tons of money just to keep up with all these constant changes in the world of technology.
I glanced at AppleScript and the next thing I knew, W3C made XHTML and CSS the standard. Eh, there aren't enough hours in the day.
Why are Table layouts evil? I'm sorry, but I'm pro-Table and anti-CSS. I guess I missing out but CSS seems to be everyone's solution and I still can't fathom why you can't build the same webpage using Tables. Except for creating "fake scrollbars" what else does CSS do that a Table can't?
Yes, a web developer should only have to wonder about the big ones which today is IE 6.x on Windows, Mozilla 1.x on Windows, Safari 1.x on Macintosh, and AOL 9.x on both of those systems. But the fact is that that isn't good enough when a client has a complaint about an user that can't view the website on Netscape Navigator 3.0.
A web browser should only process what is the standard for Internet processing which is the W3C standards for processing webpages. No CSS. No Plugins. No extensions. Just HTML. If you can't do it with HTML 4.0 or whatever we are up to, then it shouldn't be done unless you browser can handle it. And that is where browser identification code comes in. But at least make your code work before moving beyond.
And I'm not a Troll. I'm just a coder speaking the truth,
Whoa we are talking web browsers not multi-functional super encoding-decoding super machines.
Those post-HTML standards are extensions just like a plug in. They are not included because they are beyond what is needed. "We're not there yet, but there's progress toward some really useful goals" and maybe they will become standard when they ARE considered the standard by the W3C.
This is the world wide web not "the cutting edge", maybe "will be beta test".
Program a webpage so that is functions at least for all browsers even if it doesn't show all the content that it is supposed to but program for the worst then work up from there.
Yeah it has gotten my knees cut off a couple times but other times people agreed with me when I said that a website should load quick and not keep someone waiting with the greatest and bestest Flash animation in VRML.
It's not about us bleeding edge people, and yes I'm on the bleeding edge because I have cut myself a bunch of times, but the people who actually use the web but don't know about upgrading their os or their browser or plugins everyday.
I want IE dead with the rest of the dead browsers just like the next/. poster but the fact isn't lying in the web browser but the web developer. Stop jumping on the latest and the "greatest" but just create a webpage that I can visit on any browser. Yes, this means programming for Lynx, the text based browser.
I thought Safari was the best until I ran into a new website using Flash 7.0 which I wasn't prompted for nor asked to download and it wasn't until I tried it on my Win2000 machine that I figured out what was wrong.
Just stop it. Just stop moving forward until the rest of us catch up before you deploy the next level of interactivity to the web.
IE is dead in the water if you listen to the government. Too bad the entire world isn't listening to the American Government.
Gotacha. But knowledge is what keeps you in your position. Older people might have the degrees but they might not understand today's experience.
Anyway, I faked my way into many a position without a degree because I could talk the talk but I guess this is the new information age where a piece of paper might be the main reason one is interviewed or not.
But in the end of all employment, you just have to know what you are talking about before going further in your ability to satisfy clients.
I know it's not a directly the same but knowledge is knowledge whether you learn it in a classroom or the working world. Doesn't work experience and actual application of knowledge whether learned online or in the classroom make any employeer happy?
If this becomes common place, why would one spend tons of money going to the college or university if they can just teach themselves via free online coirse materials?
Going to classes for material that I can better teach myself has kept me from going back to college in the first place.
I guess more people still feel better going to classes to learn than just teaching themselves the material.
Why are 13 year old players cowering in fear? Most young adults have been around computers much more than me. a 25 year old computer programmer. The next generation is going to be much much more equiped than the rest of us for computers and technology. Watch your jobs, they are coming to take them away.
You know what? It's too early in the morning to care what you think about that site. So screw you, Mr. Anonymous Coward. ThatWeasel.com rocks. And this post is crap. Convert Inches to Meters properly by using the back of a Marble Notebook.
It would be interesting if they just used GPS for it's location device. Then they could track the people who buy the doll all the way home...... okay that could get scary quick.
Found this tip on a forum. Don't know if it works but I'm probably going to end up booting up my Playstation soon enough.
The thing with this tip has Tifa dying but I have to wonder about the final cut scene. Isn't she the one who grabs Cloud's hand?
TIP: "First you HAVE tobe mean to Tifa Example: when you get the Flower from Aeris *sniff* give it to Marlene not Tifa (that will accomplish two things barret will be 'nicer' to you and Tifa will get mad) here are two more examples one is et it so that Aeris is picked by Don corneo and when you see Tifa at the top of the stairs after you get out of the room with the 'girl-crazy' weirdos say lets go find Aeris *sniff* and Tifa will be SOOOOOOO Pissed off at you the last example is kinda funny in the flashback in Kalm you know how when you go into Tifa's house she say "Cloud you went in my house?" and if you go upstairs she does basically the same thing? well if you go into her room, and you click O on her dresser she'll say "Cloud you took my UNDERWEAR?!?!?!?!" and she won't talk to you for a while. ok but to do most of the things you have to have Tifa in your party ESPECIALLY when you go to where Aeris is supposed to die then Tifa will Jump infront of Aeris and die instead I'd rather Tifa die than Aeris"

The web wasn't built for all these crazy extensions or streaming media.
Build and deploy us a better Internet before added to the pile of restless options.
Everyone wants newer, better, faster, but what happened to just coding a site or webpage using HTML 2.0 or less?
I have my webpages render perfectly just using TABLE tags. What is wrong with these people?

Exactly. These errors are more just fudging over details than actual errors.

Good, cheaters should be put in their place, and not be able to play the game at all. It ruins it for the rest of the gamers and us. I hate cheaters!

Fuck, even in the future nothing works. Did you Make Out Today?
If you can't access RvB's servers you can hit up a Halo Movie Mirror
Or you can get their entire first season from an HBO mirror.
I mean, look at all those hits I got. I almost had a heart attack not to mention my webserver, which is on a residential DSL line, getting hammered.
Oh wait, I'm not complaining. I got /.ed. This is the happiest moment in my life. Yeah, sad... ain't it?

Hummm... I would have thought Wally would have been the first one to "die" if the coffee was switched to Decaf. Eh... Go Wally for surviving. Wooo!
I think it's: Dell is the U.S. leader in PC sales and IBM is the international/world leader.
Put out the product... Patch it later... and it still doesn't work... just like Windows ME...
