Is HTML that hard to write?
- wensing 17y agoIf you don't use something like TextMate snippets (or some other auto-completion), then it's definitely overly-time-consuming IMHO.
- olegk 17y agoGood HTML is hard to write. Look up HTML source of several major websites, and you will see how badly indented it is. 95% of them won't validate. Look at this page. It doesn't even have a doctype.
- wensing 17y agoThat's largely because it's hard to care. Browsers don't halt when fed less-than-good HTML the same way an interpreter/compiler dies when fed bad syntax.
- showell 17y agoThe movitation behind SHPAML isn't necessarily just to make the markup easier to write; it also tries to make it easier to read.
