Comment Abides by HTML standards, not W3C (Score 3, Funny) 624
I've read many of the comments on here, and man am I feeling like a heel. I know I'm not the only web developer that doesn't give a hoot about that little W3C compliant icon. As long as the site operates properly in Firefox, Safari, Opera, and IE ( as I've designed it to operate ), then that suites me fine. After 5 years of developing the same site, the only complaints I receive on it are ones about my poor design.
This brings to mind the software developers that howl about their Interface Standards ( I can't even remember the acronym they use for these standards ) I've supported the development of software for the past 3 years, and have yet to look at these Interface Standards.
I focus on the end-users eyeballs. If some developer comes along and wants to complain about my syntatical correctness - they can either copy/past my HTML to make it better - or provide a patch for my software. The regular users are quite satisfied.
