AIM code conversation


Tuesday_0:36

Joel and I had an interesting conversation while trying to code this site to be complient with XHTML 1.0 and CSS 2 standards (it validated - grin).

joeldicky: who’s yer daddy?

joeldicky: #splash {

position: absolute;

background : #C60;

margin:100px 25px 10px 25px;

text-align : center;

color: #fff;

bottom : -15px;

schaapy: BODY {

color: #000;

background: #C60;

background-image: url(index.gif);

background-position: center;

background-position: bottom;

background-repeat: no-repeat;

}

joeldicky: no!!!!!!

schaapy:mwhahahaha

add on:

Just alittle more information to let you all know what happened there. Joel and I were trying to write this small piece of code to place this graphic on the bottom of a site we’re working on. The thing was - we didn’t want to use any TABLES in the site.

It’s alot harder than one would think but after a couple minutes we both came up with some code that took care of this. My code just happen to work alittle better and didn’t require any code to be put into the BODY tags. So what you saw when viewing the code for the site was nothing ;-)

I’ll understand if you all hate this post - I just found it hilarious.
