This is how you do HTML: <body><puppies><kittens>Paragraph text</kittens></puppies></body>

@cskyes XML, you mean
-
@cskyes No, seriously, XML is designed to let you make up crap like that.
-
@redenchilada I make all my own tags and insert them in the page in random places to confuse my web design teacher.
-
@cskyes No, dude, the proper way to aggrivate web design teachers is to spam <marquee> and <blink> everywhere, or if you wanna be fancy, use CSS3 animations to make things spin and stuff.
-
@redenchilada He's already told us that marquee used anywhere would cause us to fail any assignment we used it on. Because everyone knows marquee is marquee-tier.
-
@redenchilada For bonus points, apply @minti's web 2.0 versions of marquee and blink to those elements with CSS3, so that even new browsers get the Full Experience™.
-
@cskyes Sounds exactly like my teacher.
-
A certain friend put "69" in binary on a web page for a web design class. Obscurity is the way to go.
-
@bitshift I rather like the idea of making things spin around in circles using CSS3 animations, personally.
-
@redenchilada We also made a really crappy search engine as a joke, lemme see if I got a pic. Used CSS3 to make the background appear to be having a seizure with colors. http://ur1.ca/afouv
RedEnchilada (notice the lack of a space) likes this. -
@redenchilada But using <marquee> means even @nlghtmaremoon's old revived computer gets to join in on the fun. :D
-
@cskyes I want to make Yahoogle Bingjeeves my default search engine pls
-
@bitshift "I found this really cool HTML tag called marquee" http://ur1.ca/afouy

@cskyes You're lucky to have one who actually teaches markup. Mine didn't even know what CSS was. I had to teach myself everything because that class turned out to only be trying to teach Dreamweaver. I found out that this was because Macromedia (this was before Adobe bought them) was literally paying their salaries and forcing them to teach it and not teach anything actually useful.
-
@redenchilada We actually made it search google, but only if you could get past the hover effect on the search buttons as seen here http://ur1.ca/afov1
-
@toksyuryel Lol seriously? How can you teach high school web design and not know how to write CSS?
-
@toksyuryel My web teacher was the coolest. Taught us a bit of JS and everything, too. Her only flaw was that she had us use IE.
-
@cskyes This was over 10 years ago.
-
@toksyuryel Oh, whoops.
-
@redenchilada Not me though, I kept firefawks on my flash drive.
-
@cskyes You were right that it was a high school class though ☺
-
@cskyes She gave us a snippest of improperly-written JS once that only worked when combined with IE's weird handling of it. :c
-
@redenchilada I'd have loved to use Firefox but back then it was still called Phoenix. Everyone knew IE sucked but this was before viable alternatives existed.
-
@redenchilada Like multiplying 2 negative numbers... makes a positive each time
-
@toksyuryel And even that didn't exist at the time I took that class. It was during a different class the next year that I learned of it.
-
@toksyuryel ...I guess it really wasn't that long ago, was it? Man does technology fly.
-
@eaglehooves 10 years is pretty long. Firefox, as "Phoenix", first appeared in September 2002.
-
@cskyes Um...
-
@toksyuryel I dunno.
-
@cskyes Multiplying two negative numbers together DOES make a positive every time... that's like, one of the rules.
-
@toksyuryel True, but it wasn't viable for a little while.
-
@toksyuryel But what about two ~imaginary~ numbers?
-
@redenchilada That's more complicated. Complex, you might even say.
-
@redenchilada xi * yi = -(x * y)
