Question about xHTML validation...

[Ohiosweetheart]

uh yeah. lol I installed it through the Fantastico in my cPanel. That was easy enough. Customizing it is a whole nuther story. To me, Joomla is difficult to master. Perhaps I'm just getting old. There are sections, and categories have to go in sections, then there's modules that have to go in the categories that go in the sections, and then there's lists, and menus - I'm too old for this stuff.

The template you see there is just the default template. Pretty attractive, eh? I'm going to try a free one that I like and see what happens.

Well, when you get the setup you like let me know and we can see if we can do it again.

[Ohiosweetheart]

LOL will do! And to think... that setup validates!

I've used Joomla, but over the coming months I'll be purchasing ContentTeller then completely redesigning it. I think Joomla is pretty easy, and is very flexible.

Boofo, if you want to see some sites with Joomla up and running, visit the Joomla forums, since they have a showcase forum

Thanks for your input Jason. That url would be www.joomla.org, Boofo.

Joomla is very flexible, but couldn't agree on the "easy"

[Boofo]

Already been there.

Jason, you were supposed to get ahold of me when you installed Joomla.

[Ohiosweetheart]

I always try to pay attention to XHTML validation, and the vast majority of minor modifications I end up creating are XHTML 1.0 Transitional valid (except the old AOL video one). I also end up having to fix a ton of modifications installed which seem like the authors don't care less about validation, and their updates often say to revert templates when the only difference is my last edited version is valid and their most modern version isn't...

Once you've used it for a while, you will find it very easy

Yes, I was thinking of installing Joomla then completely redesigning it, however I am now going with ContentTeller.

What is it you wish to do with Joomla, Boofo? Are you having trouble installing, integrating, it ect.?

Anyway, my main focus is Shift Linux -- just joined the dev team

everyone should try to make their forums as compiant as possible. Spiders love compliant code and not only that, but theres tons of other benefits to having compliant code.

If you run adsense, their spider delivers better ads, for better coded sites
