  1. Teach yourself Microsoft Word in 24hrs, Microsoft Windows for dumbies and such like? :P
  2. The majority of games will still use the standard joystick for movement :roll: Or are you too much of a Sony / Xbox sackrider to understand that? And take a trip down to an arcade, a lot of successful systems there use similar functionality, although not quite to the extreme that Nintendo has made available.
  3. That's the price you pay when you didn't accept it when everyone else did. Almost everyone anyways. There is only half a dozen countries (or there abouts) who still officially use the Imperial system. Edit: And other countries seemed to have had no trouble converting. But I agree cost, given the size of America, could be a problem. But considering your current expenses, it'd be pocket change.
  4. The only reason I know how tall I am in imperial is because I get asked to convert it so often I have it memorized. I find the Imperial method of measurement somewhat, odd. 12 inches to a ft, how ever many ft to a mile, etc. Metric, piece of cake, the bigger you want to go, move the decimal point one to a left and you're in the next biggest measurement. Want to go smaller, to the right. \ Edit: In a logical world, we'd be measuring temperature in Kelvin (absolute zero being at 0); which kind of makes sense. But the Celcuis scale tends to have a better feel to it.
  5. In for metric system love :3>
  6. Best of Blur :D Now, for a cd cover of my own :( Edit: sorry for delay, kept botching it up :x
  7. 1. Actually, conforms is an assumption (although I believe the page does validate against HTML 4.01 Transitional). The Doctype declartion only stipulates what standard the document is going to validate to. If it doesn't, the author needs to fix the indicated errors (use of the HTML Validator is recommended). 2. W3School is not affiliated with the W3C in anyway. They are not an interchangable term. If you did not mean it like that, I suggest you reword your sentence to 'There is bunches of information at....' 1. Depending on the defined Doctype, tags are not required to be closed in order to be valid markup. However, it is generally bad coding practices to not close them just because you don't have to. Most tags have an opening and closing pair; however there are others, like img, br, link, and others, that are self closing, that is instead of a full closing tag, like ..., they are written as <... />. 2. Tags define structure of the html document, never the content. CSS should always be used for presentation and layout. in-line styling is getting less and less accepted as XHTML slowly renders the HTML standards set obsolete.
  8. haha, righteo. I'll break it down for you then... MySQL - free Structured Query Language database management system. WYSIWYG - acronym: What you see is what you get. Generally used in reference to programs where you make a product using a visual representation, like web pages. Syntax highlighting - a language (like php, html, asp, etc) have tags, keywords, and such which determine how the script/file/whatever operates. Syntax highlighting essentially colours these items to make the source code more readable. eg: HTML - With syntax highlighting HTML - Without syntax highlighting Extreme example and a rather bad one at that. Yea, that tends to happen a lot in this forum. HTML is Hypertext markup language, it is the prefered language to make websites in. Basically it is a set of standards that a web browser renders into a more readable form. Coding is a slang term which refers to the act of writing code (html, php, C++, etc).
  9. You can drown in 1cm of water....
  10. Perhaps, but when you're making dynamic pages, you can't really use a WYSIWYG editor on a single page with multiple results. It causes too much fussing around with an additional "build" page and other junk. Especially when you're writing templating systems, php and such. No benifit to a WYSIWYG editor there since it can't render php code into a visual representation. I never limited my debate to just HTML. I know a lot of people who only use WYSIWYG editors, who couldn't write HTML by hand to get the same result. It's just drag-drop, drag-drop and whatever. Unless you actively make the effort to see what your HTML does, you aren't learning anything and it'll make it a lot harder to bug test. But if you're writing your own HTML from the start, you'll know when you've made a mistake. And you aren't getting the bloat markup that a lot of WYSIWYG editors throw in. Nothing is not legitimate proof to justifty that. And being poor has nothing to do with it. DreamWeaver, while good, isn't the best choice available. You don't need to spend a lot of, if any, money to have a good editor. EditPlus 2 NotePad++ XStandard TopStyle For example... But to make it simple: A good WYSIWYG editor + text editor > * But in many cases, just the text editor > * You have to make sure it renders correctly in browsers eventually - might as well do it while you build.
  11. There are limits to a wysiwyg editor. Once you understand the basic concepts of HTML they lose their benifit. And it doesn't take long to get to that point either.
  12. So you're actually saying that I'm [developmentally delayed]ed because I don't require a [cabbage] graphical representation of what I'm doing in order to make it work? Right.
  13. I want to upgrade to that phone. My current one (got it about November last year) is a Sony Ericsson T610
  14. Please tell me you are joking? You are joking right? No? Just... out of this thread =;
  15. To and From addresses removed for security reasons. Edit the 'click here' link actually goes to a subdomain on the user69.com TLD :lol:
  16. I haven't owned a pair of thongs since I was a kid. The feel weird now... kinda disturbing really. The aussie in me is dying :(

    How about you tell us about said guy, and at least then we'll have some kind of idea as to what could work rather than taking stabs in the dark? That said, and taking a complete guess - just give him the money.

    Since you've given no explination as to what one one is.... What is a shoe/sneaker head?
  19. I don't wear trainers anymore. Although if I did, it'd be a pair of these: http://www.columbia.com/Product.aspx?to ... &prod=1092 But for now, I wear these: http://www.columbia.com/Product.aspx?to ... &prod=1079
