Webdesigners - Are You Or Are You Not!

[yahia]

And I say webDesigner, not webDeveloper, e.g. php, asp...
The web is primarily HTML
;D

I'm a mix really so I can't vote.

I create validating layouts, sometimes by hand and I use tables with some css where I feel necessary. What would that fall into?

[yahia]

do you know when you validate an html without an encoding set on the w3 validator?
well, let's just say that would fall into web tentatively designer ;D

When I want to make a site, I just use dreamweaver.

[Spartan Erik]

A mix of the 3rd and 4th option. I do CSS and HTML, but I don't care about validation (as long as it works, that's all that matters)

But hey, at least I organize my code unlike many people out there who are extremely unorganized.

[Zenax]

I have the same oppinion as Spartan Erik here! As long as my code works then thats all that matters to me.

However one problem is that I use IE so it doesnt always work in other browsers!

[yahia]

yeah, "as long as it works"...
you're the kind of people that complain about non-IE browsers who do not show "correctly" (like on IE) your webpage?

[kryptonyte]

I kinda mix the 2nd and 4th options. I use dreamweaver to create the initial site and then recode the majority using CSS. After that I run the entire site through a W3C checker fixing whatever shows up error or warning. Once I'm done with the HTML layout I add in PHP coding to make the site dynamic and easier to keep updated. Thats pretty much it.

@Zenax: If you keep your site 100% W3C compliant you will never have that problem. ;)

[Zenax]

I find that slightly insulting.....


Yes I do test my code in other browsers to make sure it works, and my code is fgairly organized, however if it works in most browsers, then im ok with it.

What I do is testing in both mozilla's and opera.
when it's OK, I go check IE with no surprises to fix the mess he makes ; )
