I was disappointed your pages didn't validate. You need to select an
xhtml doctype:
!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional/EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"



It looked like a template because there's a lot of coding that I don't
think you're actually using. You still should have the correct doctype.


I didn't code them myself - simply used a template.
(And I don't believe in validation for the point of it. You can write
perfectly valid W3C code that will not work in every (or sometimes even any)
browser (writing code that gets through the W3C validator AND has complex
layout AND renders correctly in every browser is virtually impossible, from
what my slightly more experienced web designing friends have said), and you
can write code that will work in every browser under the sun and yet is
riddled with errors. I prefer the latter, myself.


That's so wrong. Valid markup will work in virtually every browser
except for problems in IE, and that hopefully will be rectified with IE7.

Valid markup will not be riddled with errors.

And if I can work out how to modify the blog engine I'm using to add one, I
will. Then I'll have 200 XHTML errors. Wonderful.

I doubt it will be fixed with IE7, and I believe I've seen "valid" markup
break in Opera. If I used FireFox, I probably would have seen it there as
well.

That's because the definition of "valid" is that it does not have "errors".

I still assert that writing code that works in all browsers (particularly
target browsers) is more important than writing code that complies with W3C
standards.

Ok, Opera has quirks. But if you write for Firefox first and then hack
for IE & maybe Opera if you need it, you'll have valid code that works
in all browsers (not real old ones of course).

But I'm not really a standards evangelist so I'll just say - each to
their own and that's enough of this. Your stuff looks perfect.
