Valid XHTML 1.0!

phew, i’ve switched this page from conforming to the HTML 4.01 standard to conforming to the XHTML 1.0 standard. it should look exactly the same to you. if it doesn’t let me know.

my archives are highly unlikely to validate because i’m not currently prepared to go and sort all the mismatched tags in my weblog entries out. i’ll have enough of a job keeping them straight in the future to keep up the XHTML compliance.

i’ll be switching the rest of the site over soon. the main changes i need to make to move from one standard to the next are:

  • every damn paragraph tag must have a closing tag
  • every tag that doesn’t need a closing tag must close itself (ie
    must become

  • all tags must be in lower case
