LuKreme, Exactly what is your problem, sir?
I tried to do a good thing by sharing my discovery regarding Balthisar Tidy with other BBEdit users here, and you are purposely making a mountain out of a mole hill, and being a real nitpicker. Do you just like to argue and debate over minutia just for the sake of arguing? If so, I am sorry, sir, but I am not interested in entertaining you. Furthermore, you have obviously misunderstood what I wrote. The phrase that I used in my previous message was "CODE STRUCTURE", meaning the actual structure of one's HTML code; that is, proper syntax, opening and closing tags, etc. I said NOTHING about FORMAT. You are the one who brought that up in your original retort, which in fact detracted from what my original message was primarily about. I fully understand that spiders such as Googlebot ignore white space, line breaks, etc. I also know that is why a lot of folks like to minimize their HTML code. However, if your actual HTML code -- THE CODE STRUCTURE -- is broken in a serious way, it is my understanding that Google will penalize the page. They will do the same thing for excessive misspelled words. There is a clear and obvious reason regarding why there are W3C specifications for HTML documents. To suggest that they are not important, or that spiders such as Googlebot will ignore web pages which seriously break those specifications, is ludicrous, in my view. You may agree or disagree as you like sir; but when someone does a good deed, as I have done here, please don't try to find fault with it. Thank you. We are done here.
