I've been validating code again all day. My obsession with valid coding has only been obsessive since I started using MT and discovered how beautifully MT plugins can format the text. It's made me conscious of my own coding standards. Hence, every page is XHTML valid.
I plan to set it up for RSS feeds when I start to upload the webmaster resource pages. That shouldn't be too far down the track, because all the top level pages are finished. It might work out a little tricky getting some of the pages validated, there's lots of javascript code that the validator doesn't like. I've discovered the //<![CDATA[ tag. Until I started the new design, I'd never come across it, so you see, YOU LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY.
You place the tag right after the script tag, and a closing (//]]>) tag right before the closing script tag. XML parsers don't read anything between the CDATA tags so it's all XHTML valid!! Pretty cool.
