Spyware Safety Quiz

Rating: Safety Guru

"You laugh in the face of spyware and adware. Your practically clairvoyant knowledge of the Web allows you to distinguish between safe sites and those that pose potential danger. (We suspect that you may also know which soda machines might steal your money before you drop a quarter.) Our hats off to you."

Take the quiz yourself.

My version of my schools website is now 100% valid code. The only thing left to be done is to decide what to do with the content that was the marquee. At the moment, it is just a list in a <div> called "news". I'll figure something to do with it.

I need to get to writing my paper that is due tomorrow.

JamesCassell.com

I bought JamesCassell.com. I am moving this blog to use that address. Right now, only the index is there. The archives aren't yet. Anyway, I need to get some sleep.

My version of my school's website is now 90% valid markup, and is about half the size of the original. All the original information is still there, though. It gets 9 validation errors with the marquee commented out. The original got 171 errors as HTML 4.01 Strict. Now, I need to make it completely validate, then make a new style sheet.

I have been messing with a copy of my school's website on my server. I have been attempting to make the current invalid markup and the use of tables so that it adheres to web standards, and uses semantic markup. I'm editing the current Mountain View web site on my own server. I have no authorization to be doing this, but may ask if the school wants to use my design if I come up with a good one.
