All of you insane W3C Standards people will literally kill the internet. I don't give a shit about the importance of standards when I am making a page... All I care about is that it works. I write a little HTML, I open it, oh it looks ok? Done. I don't want to have to write in catches for every possible retarded standard and case. If you had it your way pages that weren't W3C compatible wouldn't be allowed to be uploaded. The problem? There goes the possibility for just anyone to go and put something up and share on the internet. W3C is internet poison. This is just like how W3C pushed the HTML standard to eliminate the <font> tag and several other tags like it. Oh we're supposed to use CSS stylesheets? Yeah that makes so much more sense to someone who just wants to make a little home page than <FONT>, WHEN THEY WANT TO CHANGE THE FONT. RAGE RAGE RAGE...


**WARNING: Sarcasm follows**

Agreed. Standardization of web standards is the bane of the Internet. Who cares about being able to carry content cross-platform? Or accessibility? Fuck blind people. They should learn to read, assholes. I want everyone to be able to read the website I made about my pet hamster in Dreamweaver 3, and here's the W3C making web standards that cause it to look God-awful, saying I can't use the blink tag wherever I please. Hey, got epilepsy? Stop doing drugs.

Man, next thing you know, stuff won't compile when I forget a curly brace or when I leave out a semicolon somewhere. That's ridiculous. Then how will the average Joe have their say? It's like Universities, only for elitists. Only the people who know how to spell, use grammar, and in-depth knowledge of the topic are allowed to speak. What if I don't want my doctor telling me I've got cancer when I think it's a cold? I don't get my say because they call me "unqualified," bunch of jerks.

**End of the SARCASM STORM**

Acid3 is meant to show how stringently a browser follows the standards, from markup to scripting. If you don't understand (X)HTML/CSS/Javascript, get a good, standards compliant WYSIWYG editor and move on.

If you do not understand why the <FONT> element (and other presentational elements/attributes) were phased out, use a transitional DOCTYPE or, better yet, learn.


No. Seriously. No.
