Alert: Validation wanker
I was to chicken to post this on the WSG mailing list, so I thought I'd point you:
This is such an abuse of the "Validator" link, IMO. Although the site's code validates it is so "bad" on so many levels. For example:
- inaccessible text in the image
- a description in the 'keywords' meta element
- HTML comments before HTML is declared
- horizontal scroll at 800x600
- presentation in html (#ffffff on body - which could be shorted to #FFF)
- extraneous divs (<div id="form">)
- inline JavaScript
- no form validation (even on the server side)
- a form that alerts the user it worked even before it did
- <br> tag for spacing
I'm sure there is more.
The RSS validation link even fails.
Please do not flame me for this post. I know that my sites are not perfect (always trying) but this brings "validation wanking" to a new level.
