Self-taught coder I am currently focused on web development - CSS, (x)HTML, Javascript and PHP. [email protected] (warning: I may ignore any questions that should be posted on to the site instead) Also sometimes do poetry: I stare at the nearly blank screen empty lines waiting to be populated xhtml syntax is so nice and clean so different and yet so much the same slowly it took shape and got ready for fame what started as a first step back in 89 the web flew free an amazing 20 years ago four prior years of development and then it was a go just a title, content entry and a page was fine by the end of the year 500 sites were live now there are 630 million 741 thousand 855 and the web is continuing to grow in leaps and bounds it has evolved far far from its meager start growth has been so fast it wants a logarithmic chart no longer one almost plain text language now to write a page I must choose which of the many doctypes will be best to use I’ll want RDFA if I am integrating with social media no longer just html version one learning each new language is just so much fun some languages have died and been superseded they live on in carefully maintained archives they linger on in forgotten dust coat hard drives indeed CERN has resurrected the very first public website I always use two languages at least css can make everything a visual feast while html provides the bones I always follow the standards the doctypes supply I treat the the IETF RFCs like gods up on high I’ve got the w3c validators on my bookmarks toolbar I code freehand just me and the code Nothing that might obfuscate any node Gives me power and control I`m no good at French but hey I`m fluent in xml html javascript tescript css one two and three the awesomeness that is php One day I`ll learn French but for today I`m happy to play with sql tables they are fun just like good fables Profile ©
