hehe, I know what you mean, but I use editplus2 and that highlights all the code, so it does not bother me that much, as editplus2 does not bother whether it is all upper or lowercase, in fact it could be a mixture of both, it still does not care.
but I do know what you mean

I fancy myself as somewhat of a decent web designer and I always use tables where tables work, CSS positional stuff can be nasty with cross browser compatibility being a big issue!

Perhaps he doesn't want his website to be XHTML (which should be in upper case) compliant

Re: [Merged] Promote your own website
Positioning can be tricky with css but it is possible to pull off and it is good it have css only sites. The only problem I have had with different browsers is that IE 6 has crap support for alpha layers in png files. But with MS forcing IE 7 onto so many computers it should be fine.

Re: [Merged] Promote your own website
It is easy enough to get stuff to position correctly although I always seem to have a few issues with Safari which is supposed to be 100% standards compliant.
Well done on changing the code IK whilst is is a way to xhtml it's more for neatness. If I was being completly anal I would have suggested code indentation :S lol

I mostly do code indentation, its easier to read, but at lease I know my code.
one other thing about the case of code.....
the doctype had to be in uppercase to be valid HTML!!! using the http://validator.w3.org
but keeping this line as it is, the rest of my code is valid HTML 4.0, with the exception of 2 links that are for multimaps, and the embeded videos, other than the links they give out, its all valid.
oh and my CSS passes with the exception of the body, as I have changed the scrollbar, and I knew that would not pass. pity all browsers not support this feature, hehe
I was going to use the wee image on my site, but not sure who actually really likes seeing them

Re: [Merged] Promote your own website
ok, I think I might list my ones
This is my interaction design site:
Interaction Design
Just a Uni Project, had to research technology and such.
Visual Communication
Again, A Uni Project about art and such. I prefer making the sites than the writing.
and a flash portfolio which I have linked to before:
Christine Almond Portfolio
I have pages taking, briefly, about each of these here:
Damien O'Neill
Should be adding a PHP/MySQL site soon and a ASP site. So any recommendations on those before I start would be cool, including what kind of site would be good to make using these (doing it to learn)

Re: [Merged] Promote your own website
PHP & MySQL is a great combination, I'm starting to dabble in Ajax at the moment which is also a brilliant technology!

Re: [Merged] Promote your own website
Ajax is the above + Javascript isnt it? Does it have its own frameworks/librarys?

AJAX is Asynchronous Javascript and XML and is used to create nice interactive web applications. A simple implementation could be to update certain areas of a page without doing a page refresh/postback etc.

Re: [Merged] Promote your own website
Well, Thats what I mean. Does AJAX actually contain anything new or is it simply a new name for a certain combination of existing tech?
