bja888, sorry to tell you: There's not one person here who thinks favorably of your arrogant flaunting of ignorance because of your need to feel superior. You have become simply enough an object for our amusment, stop now, or forever be an a**..

Why are all of you avoiding the question?? Can it be done, yes or no? You keep insesting that html works but you wont answer yes.

DaWei almost had me 30 min after I posted the thread. Someone finish his work. You can do it! I have faith in you guys!

OK, it's midnight, I'm tired, and the thread I wanted to rant in has been closed. Anyway, let's play with this:

I cleaned up your code a lot, but all I added were the float: left and float: right attributes.

By the way, I would suggest you back up your arguments with fact as opposed to an opinion which seems to be grounded in an alternate reality.

I'm glad you guys are trying now but I wanted content in the middle of the two side boxes.

Ooble your code does look more visually appealing. That�s not how the browser would read it though so you don't need all those spaces. Remember the browser has to load every space, tab and break.
I'm used to freeing up empty space so my html runs together.

I'm still deciding if you are a real person or not.

Your obliviousness is making it a difficult decision

Your argument for obfuscating your code is to save microseconds in download and rendering time? C'mon, man...

bja888 · Oct 14th, 2005, 7:33 PM

when you run 56K (or less) every second matters

Polyphemus_ · Oct 15th, 2005, 4:18 AM

so in your opinion, code has to be unreadable...

@bja888: You want DaWei to prove to us that you are a fool? He doesn't have to, you are doing a prime job yourself. Now you just have to realize that you are a fool, and then you can begin the path to recovery.
