First of all, my intention wasn't to start a flame on Jake. Yes, I was a little upset by Jakes statement. My main concern about that is the following: Newcomers come along, read this and say to themselves: "Yeah, I always knew that, HTML sucks, who cares" and then they start doing the craziest things like using tables for layout, div-soup, inaccessible, obtrusive JavaScript and so on instead of thinking about the best possible way of how to do things. Although HTML has been there for years now, people still do not get it right and there's still the need to promote best-practice. Besides, without HTML we wouldn't be discussing jQuery here, I'm pretty sure. -- Klaus _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
