pmsumner at 12:52am on 26/04/2002It appears that a lot has changed since I started writing HTML. What happened to things being nice and easy? What happened to the easiness of the <font> tag, or the <strike> tags? Now it's all CSS and tags being deprecated here there and everywhere...
While I understand only too well the idea of seperating content from style (and data from methods), it's frustrating to find that using CSS is actually nowhere near as simple as writing HTML tags. It's far from complex, but it's just... I don't know, it doesn't seem right.
I must be getting old and stuck in my ways!
Though I really like the <ins> and <del> tags - how come I never knew that they existed??
I'm reading the W3 page on HTML 4.01 which can be found here: W3 HTML 4.01 Definition
