[thelist] HTML validators(off topic)

[George Donnelly]

I use the w3c one and bobby religiously and i attempt to make my pages
conform to them. http://www.cyklotron.com/ is my most compliant site; xhtml
1 strict, css, accesibility. not perfect yet though

one thing i wont do is add a little d next to my images and link this to
their long descriptions. bobby wants you to do this since the longdesc
attribute is not widely supported.

otherwise, i want my pages to be perfectly coded and accessible. i respect
the w3c and i want the browsers to conform to their standards. period.
