RE: FN-FORUM Why Hand Code Anyway?

"Secondly, you can then get rid of those horrible tags that so
many college taught developers always use. They only teach you that so that
you can tell the difference between
TAGS and text."

ummm ... no. I've been hand-coding since 94 (currently use UltraEdit on win
and various editors on Linux) but the tags were/are because
older browsers would not accept tags and mis-represent them or
ignore them altogether. Just as I too design with speech readers in mind
(ALT tags) I'm also aware of the range of browsers out there. Safety first!
(and no, wasn't taught it at college - no web then, just Arpanet!)

Personally, I'm sticking with upper for HTML and DHTML and lowercase for
XML.
