1st, I never said I was any authority about anything :)
I'm just building the weber sites as a hobby...
Hobby or not, when you publish information on the web without a big
message saying "I have no frickin' idea what I'm talking about", you are
presenting yourself as an authority on the subject. And when you answer
questions on a mailing list with links to your site you are re-enforcing
that point.
2nd, I beg to disagree. Validation has allot to do with how
pages look. In many cases, if you have differences between
browsers, or if things don't look like you expect, validating
the page solves the problem.
That's as may be, but it doesn't mean validation guarantees it'll render
"correctly", or even as you expect.

I think we are a bit OT here :)
I was looking to replace my article system and it looks like
many people prefer to see the one that I have now.
I'll look at the feedback people post here and decide what
to do.
Thanks to everyone on the input.

Not sure why it's not working with FF. the page passes validation at

Validation has never and will never mean it looks right. And it worries me
that someone presenting themselves as an authority on web development would
think so.

This is interesting.
I wonder if more people feel the same.
Compare the articles on weberdev.com (my site) :
Example : http://www.weberdev.com/ViewArticle/486
Completely un-usable on Firefox 1.5.0.5 with current Gentoo Linux.
I've got a full-width blue screen of death, and then a 1-inch (?)
column of text (unreaedable) off screen to the right.
I *would* like this better, if the layout actually worked.
To the articles on devarticles.com for example.
http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/Java/Getting-Started-with-Java-2D/
There's an article on that page?
Where?
:-)
Honestly, I can almost always find the same content on a site with
much lower ad density, and will always choose a cleaner simple site
over something that cluttered/messy.
