Sorry, I was looking for a reliable starting point to review my
practices. It's something I have always done, review, reevaluate,
adjust. In past lives I had to make decisions that impacted many
people. I could make those decisions, knowing they were the "best"
decision based on the information available at the time. Einstein's
fourth dimension, time. The decisions I make today, don't make
yesterday's decisions wrong, just outdated. Obviously my web design
isn't so critical, but old habits are hard to break. Besides, I really
hate being wrong. <g>
I have seen a lot of discussion on html semantics, and though the
semantics of a page advertising an event, are different than those of a
curriculum vitae, I thought I should investigate a more semantic
approach in general. Unfortunately it seems that like so many things,
anyone who can spell HTML, and has an opinion, has published it
(actually blogs even remove the HTML requirement). HTML semantics are
either the future of the web (of course that's what they said about
xhtml a few years back), or another fad.
Thanks for your time. Trust that if and when I uncover any "concrete
problems", that (hopefully) haven't been addressed here dozens of times,
I will ask more specific questions. As I said, I do already pick up new
ways of looking at things here.
You know, when I first started, I didn't find this forum very useful.
It seemed to be a predecessor to today's blogs, a good place to publish
opinions, but opinions are like a certain body part, everyone has one.
Now I find it invaluable. Do you think it's because the forum is that
much better, I am that much smarter, or a combination of both?
