Re: [WSG] Web Standards Charter - An Open Letter To WaSP

2005-10-04 Thread Kazuhito Kidachi
Vlad,

I don't know how many WaSPs are in this list, but I send your
proposal's URI to another mailing list, so that we all WaSPs can share
your voice. I do not represent WaSP here at all, but I thank you for
your suggestion.

Best,

Kazuhito , WaSP in Japan

Re: [WSG] WE05

2005/10/3, Andreas Boehmer [Addictive Media] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 However, using a h1 for an entire header (top area of a page) I think is a
 misuse of the tag. h1 is meant for headings, not headers. A heading, to
 my understanding, is the title of a piece of content and there will be
 generally one individual heading per page. A header is the top area of a
 website and actually a markup of layout, not content.

I agree. Also, we have * only * 6 levels of headings w/(X)HTML specs.
I prefer to save level for contents' future expansion/update. From
such a view point. I don't want to use h1 at header in each web page -
mostly I mark up site logo as h1 on top page of site.

Re: [WSG] IE7 b1 :/

 I think IE 7 will be a bit of a disapointment to the web developer
 crowd.

I think we should wait for next beta version of IE7. I do understand
what many web developers feel about Beta 1, but it's still far from
final product, as Dean said at IEBlog. Molly wrapped up about current
situation about IE7:

Re: [WSG] web standards detection - is it possible?

 I seem to recall Doug Bowman saying something similar about the Wired
 redesign at Web Essentials last year.

He talked the story at @media 2005:

BTW, I love his story anyway.

Re: [WSG] WSG Meetings for the rest of us

2005-06-08 Thread Kazuhito Kidachi
2005/6/9, Cole Kuryakin - x7m [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 Man, oh man, would I love to attend some (pretty much all) of the meetings,
 seminars and discussions being hosted/held by WSG - but they seem to all be
 in Sydney. 

Me too. I'm in Japan and I can understand what you feel. So, if some
resources like slides or short minutes are available for each meeting,
all of the rest of us would be happy, I believe.

BTW, now some people living in Tokyo are thinking about planning local
meeting as a part of WSG. So my question is, how to setup such a local
meeting. Is it only inputting time/place info on the WSG site?

Australia, Philippines and Japan are located in almost same time zone.
In future, we may share the same experience at the same time. It's
just my thought.

Re: [WSG] Web Standards in Estonia

Hi Rene,

2005/4/27, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 There is a not-so-short writing about it at:
 http://triin.net/2005/04/27/Web_Standards_in_Estonia

The report is quite interesting to me. Now that you've opened the tool
you used to the public, so I may try to execute similar survey here in
Japan.

Thank you.

Re: [WSG] markup readability (was: newspaper format)

2005-04-17 Thread Kazuhito Kidachi
2005/4/18, Richard Czeiger [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 Maybe we can formalise this list so that it becomes a
 'see-if-any-of-these-are-relevant-first' list of values that people can use.
 If what they need is not on the list then they can make up their own...

I agree this point. I think it should be useful especially for
beginners, and it may prevent them from using presentational names.
The list could be a kind of good dictionary, I guess.

But, every site has its own name space controlled by its original
naming rule. The list you're suggesting has its own rule, I guess. So,
my suggestion is the list should be given with the rule so that users
can customize the rule and make their own name space.

It's just my thought.

Re: [WSG] Main Content won't Center Align in IE

2005-03-31 Thread Kazuhito Kidachi
Hi,

I think your question is a kind of FAQ, and the solution is adding
text-align:center; style to the body element, I guess.

 My problem is the main content area on the homepage is left justified in
 IE, but center aligned in FF and Opera, which is correct. The following is
 a snippet from my CSS file, which controls the main content area:
 
 #container
 {position: relative;
  width: 760px;
  margin: 15px auto;
  font: 12px verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;
  text-align: justify;
  line-height: 16pt;
  color: #000;
  padding: 10px;}
 
 I want it to center align in IE too therefore what am I doing wrong?
 Here's the URL for the test file: http://www.waltermortgage.com/index1.stm
