Day 3 Of The Workbook

1 September 2003

This morning, I used tips from some emails to produce Day 3 of the XHTML workbook. To my great surprise the page called Day 3 validated as XHTML 1.0 Transitional.

Going back to edit the Introduction and Day 2, I wasn’t so lucky. The changes I made to those did not cause them to validate. The changes also hosed up the way the sub-heading and document heading appear on the rendered page. I guess my markup is now correct, but something else has to be done to make it look decent.

I also didn’t strip out all of the [br /] tags which I’ve been using to narrow the width of the column of text. There’s something about that being non-semantic or unsemantic or flawed semantics or some other semantics about semantics. More tomorrow. For now – ENOUGH!

My respect for Mark Pilgrim’s ability to produce a book on line in thirty days has soared. I can’t produce a valid paragraph and he used daily entries to create an online reference guide about Accessibility. It was all valid, accessible, looked good and provided great navigational links between subjects, pages, sections, etc.
