My kind of HTML
2010-01-16 @ 14:29What is wrong with todays HTML?
I’ve created a lot of websites during the years as a web developer and I don’t think HTML is perfect.
How can we change it?
- Instead of doctypes and other information, just add ”type” to the html tag.
- Why is title not a meta tag? Make it a meta tag.
- Why write ”text/javascript” and not just ”javascript”?
- Instead of <div id=”">, write the tag name directly and maybe add an ID
- Make every tag have the same attributes as far as possible.
- Add href to all elements to make them clickable.
