WCAG 1.0 vs WCAG 2.0

[Andy Dingley]

Where by ecma is not a w3c standard.

To be pedantic to that level, none of the W3C recommendations are
"standards".

 

[Jan C. Faerber]

To be pedantic to that level, none of the W3C recommendations are
"standards".

the layers of website:

dynamic: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Javascript, DOM
layout _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ CSS
structure _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (X)HTML
content _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ MySQL, XML
business logic _ _ _ _ PHP, ASP, JAVA

now the guys (only the good ones) always tell to seperate
content from layout. (tables for table data and css for layout)
So you should use the standards as they were intended.
Don't block access to the content and prefer clear css instead of
"cascading inner tags" (that expression does not exist - sorry)

W3C standards (big and more important than spagetti):
SVG, XML, CSS, (X)HTML, MathML, WCAG

non-w3c standards (still not enough of those):
swf, XMLHttpRequest, innerHTML, ecma-Script

they use RFC1766 for language code
<!ENTITY % LanguageCode "NAME"

Why do I have to use a text editor on a PC with Windows to open this
file?

The mime type is "text/plain", so why can't I just open it in my
browser, or anorher editor?
