I had too much free time in this one-week holiday, so I took advantage of changing my blog's template. Most of the changes are in background, you won't notice any difference with the layout presentation though. Well this means I do code cleanup, which further means I check for unclosed HTML tags and so on. Scratching head? Never mind, geek language. Basically, in layman's term, what I do is I validate the blog's source code and see whether the codes confirm to standard derived by W3C. W3C is a body that comes out with the standards for HTML, WML, XHTML and so on. And yet this standard is not followed strictly by some, including our big company Microsoft with its Internet Explorer browser hehe. This is why you’ll sometimes see some website looks great in Internet Explorer but when viewing using Firefox or Opera or other rebellious (LOL!) browser, it looks funny.
As for this blog, the most outstanding change you may notify is that I put Recent Comments part on the left side. Just to facilitate me in knowing if someone posted some comments on my blog, that's all. And the other one is I've reversed the Archives part sorting, so that it'll sort latest post first. Validation result: 89 errors. Most of them are errors caused by element properties like height, width, src and others. I'm too lazy to include everything inside style tag. Errors should decrease a lot if I change everything into style tag and don't use strict validation. For those of you interested in validating your blog/website, head over to W3C validation site here and put your blog/website address in the textbox.
Later!
