> Cats are about 2 feet that means six times there height would be about 12 feet. That would be a very terrifying cat Yes it would. There's something wonderful about the paths that a mind that hasn't been fully toned the way society wants it to explores. Well done.
This site rules :)
I taught young girls to code (founder of nonprofit Girls Code Lincoln, based in Nebraska USA) for the past few years - I love this! A few resources that you may be interested in sharing with her, age appropriate for her:
Youtube series that we did where our students interviewed women in STEM - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-32uv45Ln4VJGhVr_jr6...

I love this. Her little site really takes me back to the age of the internet I often miss. Back in the 90s, fresh out of art school I knew I needed to create a portfolio website of some sort. I went to a Borders Books and got a book about 4 or 5 inches think about HTML and how to craft a site using a tool built into Netscape Navigator. Over the course of a week or so I created a site very similar in function to the o…
Great speed scores, reasonable SEO and best-practices scores, a few accessibility-related nitpicks but none critical. So, better than most professionals. https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis/https-naya-lol/tkn3le4d53

It is almost a shame modern browsers no longer support all the fun layout patterns of ol' FRAMESET. There was a layout tool to cut your teeth on (possibly literally the way it was made out of browser chrome).

My controversial (?) opinion is that browsers should literally never break anything that was once a part of the web platform unless there's simply no other choice. If the size of it is getting too big... first, stop adding more shit. (And then maybe, implement some old features in terms of some newer ones. Not really "web platf…

Tables aren't even deprecated. IMO you're better off keeping the tables than transforming it into soup. 20 years ago you'd hear it shouted from the rooftops: "Tables for layout are not semantic!". Guess what? s are never semantic. Just use tables if it suits you.

Good one
Very cute! I did something similar with my dad when I was a kid. First basic HTML then Dreamweaver. A couple years down the road and I’m working at a SaaS company. Beware.
I just had a visceral reaction to reading Dreamweaver... god those were not the days haha
