Yeah good point, what do you think about W3C Valisation service?

[mlwebco]

@ErcanWorld I never validate my sites. What I focus on is just making sure my site doesn't break across all Grade A browsers (meaning the top browsers that most people still use).

Ehh I dont think I agree with a lot of what you just said. The point of using certain programs and methods of coding is to allow ease of going back and making changes. If you slop some code together with inline styles and tabular layouts It makes it extremely hard to go back and edit. When I build a site I build it for the client and other possible developers in my team.

@Hollen949B You should check out the debate I had on my blog regarding this topic. Good stuff.

Tables tend to be bad for accessibility like screen readers, but at the end of the day it's how well it's made, however it's done that matters. You could use all div's and not a single table and still have it less reader friendly than someone elses site made entirely with tables, but done well.

@TalesOfWar Exactly!

@mlwebco I am Defiantly the kind of person that is willing to do something like that, Would never judge a song on how many views it has, But depending on where and what sort of crowd I'm playing too, Those sort of things defiantly come into consideration.
