Bollocks to your bollocks. You're reading comprehension must be very low.
"HTML is a mark-up language for documents. Its simplicity has enabled the spread of the web. In addition it provided a means for some semantic marking BLAH BLAH BLAH."
You are repeating what he says in his blog. Maybe you read the wrong blog?
"CSS was the answer to presentational issues."
Yes, but it's not a good answer. It is possible to criticize something not as reflection of a person's own deficiencies, but because it is works poorly.
"Most important this separation enables easier indexing of web pages which is next to impossible to index with graphical based systems."
He never said the separation of content and layout is bad. He said they way that it is implemented is "POOP" Any sane person is for the seperation of content and layout.
- yannis 17y agoIf you think that it works poorly you are welcome to improve it:) The testimony of the web provides the answer to the fact that HTML and CSS works. You can read Håkon Wium Lie's PhD thesis as to the reasoning behind CSS. http://people.opera.com/howcome/2006/phd/ http://people.opera.com/howcome/2006/phd/ and make your own mind if it is POOP or not. IMHO it has a very good basis and also provides an architecture for improvements. Pretty much similar to Knuth's TeX. I personally find no difficulty in using CSS! I think it is the smallest of the head-aches that a web developer faces. really a non-issue.
