hi daniel

whenever you feel that a post might be a bit offtopic (and a rant often
qualifies), please include a web development tip

hold on there, sonny, them's fightin words

some of your fellow listees fall into that category and we wouldn't want a
flame war, now, would we?


in any case, webpagesthatsuck.com (note correct domain name) isn't anywhere
close to being as awful as you suggest -- and there's no denying that his
*concept* (pointing out design mistakes) is a good one


<tip>
tables will validate xhtml strict -- you can't use many attributes, though
(luckily, width="xx%" is still okay)
</tip>

<tip>
watch out for <table width="100%"> inside a div to which you have applied
margin or padding -- some browsers will make the table as wide as the
window, and thus slop over outside your div
