Thanks

July 12th, 2002

Thanks to those who wrote about fixes and improvement to the style guide. We have updated the Tips section on authoring XHTML with DreamWeaver.

Thanks to David Perini for the link to the DreamWeaver extension that converts your pages into XHTML. Note that this is a zip file, not a Web page. I have tested it on a few pages and like it. Remember that you still have to validate your pages and check your work. I suggest that you back up files that you intend to convert. What if something goes wrong, terribly wrong?

Thanks to William of styrofirm.com for the tip on configuring DreamWeaver to close non-closing elements. If you are comfortable with JavaScript, it is quite easy to customize the software so that it writes <hr /> instead of <hr>, <br />, instead of <br> and so on. Full details await you in the Guide.

Thanks to JZ for the CSS validation fix. The problem was that the system identifier was pointing to a relative destination. Once we added the correct URI to the DTD, we were set. If that is too much to think about, just copy and paste.
