We got served by Kai Loon recently on XHTML Challenge, a website that lets you compare your website’s validation and code markup with other folks out there. Thanks for the head’s up, buddy! Head to Kai Loon’s blog for some very useful tutorials on Photoshop and Illustrator and don’t forget to check out some of his self-styled comics. And for the record, WSMY validates!

gato says:
Hi Dani, good question. WSMY is using the XHTML 1.0 Strict doctype, but served with the text/html mime type. By right it should be served as application/xhtml+xml, but that combination won’t render well on older versions of IE browsers (IE6, IE5.5, etc). There’s been many discussions regarding this on the web for many years. Personally, we chose to use XHTML 1.0 Strict, but still serve it as text/html, for the simple reason that it’s both forward and backwards compatible. Cheers! :)

dear Gato, many thanks for your reply :)
browser compatibility, so we really need a web standard! :D
Suffian says:
Yeah dani, web standards is the way to go. =)
