This is what's great about the web. Not only is the code in plain text and freely shared, but when you give it away, everyone just complains about it.

- jay_kyburz 16y agoBut surly the whole point of commenting on a post is to share our collective wisdom about whether or not code (or advice) is good. The function of a HTML reset file is to ensure browsers on all systems behave the same way, but in this instance it appears to me that the author hasn't tested his own page on windows or perhaps just in Chrome, which would suggest that it might not good advice to use his reset file.
- jeberle 16y agoYeah, you're probably right, and it is a pretty ugly page.
- CoryMathews 16y ago"everyone just complains about it" Everyone complains when its awful code. Everyone enjoys good code.
- pbhjpbhj 16y agoThey did sort of say - let us know what's bad. It's a start, others will no doubt be doing their own bare template for HTML - I did my first proper HTML5 page yesterday, using JQuery too. One thing I've just followed through is to merge my print styles (which tend to be minimal, turn off fancy images, remove some formatting) into my main CSS file - it was a Google page optimisation recommendation. I'm also using a reset based on YUI but without the non-standards IE hack; copy pasted to avoid a linked file as it's a single page "tool".
