  1. Was that just an example, or is that how it is here at the W3Schools forum?
    It's just natural that's how it would work, isn't it? Like aspnetguy said, it's a built-in feature of the IPB software. It's not the people behind w3schools who rate people, they don't have time or good position to do that. The people with the best ability to rate fairly are the people who frequent this forum, the members. Any member can rate another member. I'm not sure if you can rate through the common board interface, because we mods don't see that option at least, but I know it's possible for everyone to rate people through viewing their profile, clicking on any number of stars beneath their name.
  2. Well, w3schools is about teaching the basics of the languages. Different hacks and tricks with css are quite advanced really, and I don't think they should start giving tutorials on how to make pages, as people should really figure that out themselves. There's too large a chance that people will just copy and paste the finished code and not have to learn how to code a page from scratch themselves. What we can do, however, is make a topic in the CSS section similar to the one in for example the XSLT forum, dealing with common problems. Anyone willing to put together such a topic?

  3. I'd say it's easier and (possibly) faster. Learning time isn't set in stone, it depends on the individual. At least with your own computer and the net you can go at your own pace, and not worry about falling behind and not getting time to catch up with the rest of a potential class. If you get it quickly, you can go faster and learn as you see fit, instead of following a set curriculum you may experience as slow and trite. Of course, if you're a slow learner, it can be good to have a tutor or lecturer to help explain it further. Then again, if you're having trouble, programming may not be your destiny. You can still make good websites of course, as html and css are a lot simpler. However logical and structural they may be, they just don't require quite the same as Programming/OOP. Good question. :)And just reading won't get you anywhere. You need to get it into your fingers as well. It's just as with learning a written language, you have to practise beyond getting the words into your brain, you also need to write and learn how to use the words for communicating different things.

  4. Jonas:I didn't mean just you, but the W3Schools...hehe. Sorry for making this 'error' hehe :)
    Exclude me from that, and you're right. I'm not a part of w3schools (or RefsnesData, the company behind w3schools.com), nor are any of the other mods. We're just volunteers. :)
  5. But the Google ads here, is that something you own Jonas, or is it invisionzone? Do you or Invisionzone get money when people click at them?
    Mine? :blink: Where in the world would you get that idea? :) Of course they're not mine. Nor do I think they're Invisionzone's. Notice here in this post how I continually refer to "they" and "them" making money? I guess the decision whether to have the ads or not lies with the administrator(s). Of course, I can see why the ads are there, to create revenue for keeping the forum up. Servercosts and what-not, you know... :)
    Jonas? I would bet my life not.
    Would you really? Don't be too eager to put your life on the line... :ph34r: :)
  6. What can they do? They can't force people to look at banners. Some people see them and click them, other people don't. That's just fact, no changing that. If someone clicks the banners, they make some money on the banners, and that's incentive to have them there. People looking at banners won't make them any money either way. I learned to ignore banners a long time ago. Never needed ad-blockers. Before the browsers came with pop-up blockers though, those were a necessity for happy browsing.

  7. block level elements are centered with margin:0 auto, not text-align: center.
    Actually, they are centered with text-align: center; on the parent element for browsers IE LTE 6 (don't know about IE 7). Opera, Firefox and Safari on the other hand support the correct margin: 0 auto;:)
  8. Then why don't you put a class on a p and make it "act" like you want it to? Or simply use CSS' selectors to target only specific "p"s you want?
    Really.<tagger>content</tagger><p_class="a">content</p>Counting the space, that's ten potentially superfluous bytes when using tagger, just like when using p. And you can make your pages search engine-, and thus user-, friendly.And your signature makes no sense:
    I haven't used XHTML since I began doing webpages in 1999, don't tell me to start using it now.
    If you started making websites in 1999, XHTML wasn't even a standard or recommendation back then. XHTML 1.0 was announced a recommendation on January 26 2000.http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xhtml1-20000126/Of course, no one can force you. It really just comes down to whether or not you want to keep up with the times and help the web grow to its full potential.
