Web design for the woefully ignorant

Note to self: Do not begin XHTML validation process without a copious amount of free time.

Golly folks, turns out I had a thing or two to learn about XHTML 1.0 Transitional. The good news is that with the help of this site I was able to decrease the number of errors on my sight from 150+ to 11. Those last 11 are kind of pesky, since they are all contained in blogger code that I have no control over, i.e. that stupid banner add.

The good news was that my brand-spanking new CSS code was flawless. At least by that site's standards.

Apparently IE 6 for WinXP has a different opinion. Here I've spent several hours tweaking the look of this site, even going so far as to use a CSS Editor. When I was over at my girlfriend's house, I checked my blog, as I often do during the day. I must have refreshed that page a dozen times and it seemed like I got something different each time. If this site looks really funky to you, please email me or leave a comment with a screenshot.

It's weird, the only problem I've had is with that browser with that operating system. Perhaps I'll just add the following to the top of this page - "This site is best viewed with any browser other than Internet Explorer."

In other news, I'm just a few days away from being reviewed over at The Weblog Review, hence the constant tweaking of the site as of late. Expect more sucking up in the next few days.

Finally, Blog Madness 2003 is still accepting submissions if you want to get in on the act. I hope to see you there.
