News, on my site? Preposterous! Anyhow, thought I'd add a bit o' text to make myself an outline of what I want to do. I need to finish relearning CSS positioning and add some more polish to the site. I think it'd make a good start page for me if I could get myself going. I also wanted to add the MLS scores from their tiny form on their front page to mine, and the wowfixclient I have floating around for a small bit of warcrack news. I suppose I could turn this into a blog-like thing, but I doubt I will. If I sit here and type out text like this it'll be more for me than anyone on the internet. Reminds me, add a link/image for portableapps, scite and a few other places I like.
I did spend quite a bit of time getting this thing recoded and xhtml 1.1/css level 2 valid. Although, a lot of html writers seem to not like xhtml. I don't care for the xml bits, but closing all tags makes it easier to read and look cleaner. And following the strict validation makes it even better looking. I think, though, it'd be even better if more people followed the semantic outline thing, which is why everthing is in heading tags and I have css to reformat it since I don't want to use it for emphasis, but for outlines. Follow the xhtml validation link and hit advanced options and choose outline, then check out the semantic one and you'll see how the headers allow it to crawl through and output everything in an outline. Granted, this is not the way the headers are supposed to be used. I'm working on getting the same outline but using the header tags properly too...
If anyone besides myself sees the page, I used SciTE to code this (and to do anything text/html/etc related). Yes, I do it all by hand, with a little copypasta occasionally. Again, I like to make it look as nice in the code as it does on the page, though I think my code looks better than the page right now. At least I finally got the colours changed from white/black to this.
One such copypasta is:
I got this from xhtml.com to make it so that good browsers load this page as xhtml with application/xhtml+xml and iexplode load it as text/html. Use < and > for the angle brackets.
