I think half the people here haven't seen the ultimate crime: http://fabricland.co.uk/ The service in the shop is just as bad as the web site as well!

I think there is a trend in UK web design: http://www.lingscars.com/

Ling gave a good talk about it, you can watch it here http://www.besquare.me/session/the-future-of-digital-marketi...

even my non-programmer wife found this page to be hilarious

Wonderful! Usually when I find something hilarious, I share with my non-programmer friends who stare at me like I'm some sort of freak; and I am surprised every time.

Yeah I get this too. If you try to explain they go "No don't tell me, too much info!"

I think I felt my pulse quicken as I started to scroll. edit: Actually, it has a bunch of unclosed h3 and h2 tags.

yeah, reminds me of this other website: http://motherfuckingwebsite.com/ should we be hard-coding our styles into html and stop making stylesheets though? seems like a balance is needed

That's awesome - what framework did they use?

Renders perfectly in IE8.

Renders perfectly in IE4, too.

Seems like it's IE being a bit loose with the spec (the doctype is html 3.2 after all) or just catering for the likely hood of a rule for one element being used for another.

For headings, on http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html32#headings it says "You always need the start and end tags" but for block elements underneath it says that:

    

This is the first paragraph.

A wild tag appears, and it even has alternate behaviour! Haven't seen those in over a decade.
