Re: [WSG] content type etc
Thanks a lot for the answer, Lachlan. The reason I asked you this is that I normally send two different content-type according to the browser. That is. If you access my personal site using IE you will notice that I use a meta tag to declare the mime-type, and in the case of IE it would be text/html, whereas if you access using any other browser the page will be served as XML, using a xml declaration, without any meta-tag to declare the mime-type. Now, even though the all thing validates as XHTML1.0 Strict, I was wondering whether that would be the correct practice. This the link to my personal page: www.noblocodenotas.com Best regards. Paolo Dodet Huston, we've got a problem! :D ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
Re: [WSG] @media 2006 , London, 15th-16th June
The @media conference returns in 2006 So, who's going, guys? ;) I'd really like to be there!!! I'm italian, so I have to decide yet. I'm also not a professionist: i love web standards but I'm a geometrician and I work as it. Jeffrey, Joe, why aren't you there this year too?!? Crying. :D :D :D ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **

Re: [WSG] Fully compliant sample site
One of the best fully compliant sites I have seen is:http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbsite/ There is a detailed tutorial here:http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail51.html Fantastic!!! :D
[WSG] A web culture
Why there is not any movie, song or books (novels) that deal about web? I mean, it's an instrument that have changed our live (and it will change it again). It seams like art isn't interested in. Why? Why do not exist a web culture?
[WSG] Alistapart vs Digital-Web
Alistapart is a leader in wd on-line magazine. But what do you think about www.digital-web.com? It's growing everyday, maybe the best navigation-system on the web, a nice approach to web design, simple and complete. So: what do you think about? :) P.S. Logically, I still love ala.
[WSG] New site, same question: opinion?
The url is www.immaginecreativa.it/unipn (it's not complete yet). The concept was: standard compliant; accessibility. What do you think about? Thanks, Piero. P.S. There's one page with a couple of code errors: find it out! (I'll fix it soon, don't worry :)
Re: [WSG] CSS Document layout/structure
I think it's a very intresting question! :) We always talk about clear coding in xhtml, but which is the best way to write a css? I think this could be a starting point discussion.
Re: [WSG] CSS Document layout/structure
And what about the properties order? Generally I use to do something like this:
a {
font:1em sans-serif; color:#333; font-weight:bold;
text-decoration:none;
margin:1em; padding:0.5em;
background:#ddd; border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;
}
First I set the font and text properties, than the margin-padding and -
when used - the width-height properties. Than I go with background and
border.
Where can I put floats, positioning or clears?
I agree with a separation in more than one css, but not so separate! :)
Maybe smal, medium and large could be joined in an only one file.

[WSG] Crazy IE: background images
Hi everybody, how are things? In these days I came up with a really strange IE problem. Let me explain. If you visit www.immaginecreativa.it/unipn with Firefox (Mozilla, Netscape, Opera, Safari or other GOOD browser) you can see beautiful pictures on the top of the page, under the principal navigation menu. If you visit that site with IE, those images won't be loaded! The first time I thought: I forget some hack for the baby!. Not at all. If you click on one of the button on the very bottom of the page, you'll reach the help section: wow, the picture is loaded! What's this??? Did I make mistakes in the css (www.immaginecreativa.it/unipn/src/css/layout.css)?

[WSG] =?ISO-8859-1?Q?WCAG_1.0_=A710.5?=
Does anybody know why Bobby doesn't consider this structure valid (WCAG 1.0 ยง10.5)? dl dtBlog/dt dda href=#01/a/dd dda href=#02/a/dd dda href=#03/a/dd /dl It tells me that those links are not separated. But in a UL structure they are! Why? Could it be because of the printed point of the li (I hope not! :)?

=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Re:_[WSG]_WCAG_1.0_=A710.5?=
Someone told me that it doesn't consider those links separated because of the the printed point of the li element. That someone says that in the guideline - at the point 10.5 - they speak about separate adiacent links with PRINTED character: this is true, but I can't believe that is a printed character problem and not a structure problem. Logically, aren't they separated in a DL structure?

Re: [WSG] XML Declaration
Yes, I agree. XML Declaration must be (when used) the very first element in the document. ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
