The X-Philes<\/a> grow ever larger. It’s become clear that I need to make some clarifications in how the tests work — that I have to state a couple of things explicitly, and that I might need to tighten up the rules to close some loopholes. In the meantime, we muddle through, as we must. Of particular interest in the latest batch: James Graham<\/a>, a UK physics student who is embedding MathML<\/a> in certain pages on his site. (Click to advance through the slides on the MathML page.) Also we must give due respect to St. Raphael Academy<\/a>, which might very well be the most techologically advanced secondary school website ever<\/em>. Certainly it beats the pants off of my<\/em> alma mater’s site, which has lovely bordered frames, scrolling headline text courtesy of the <marquee><\/code> tag, and no DOCTYPE, presumably to spare us all from the horror. Of course it is<\/em> a cash-starved California public school. I blame Gray Davis personally<\/em>.1<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

I’ve also added a “Useful Reading” list to the Markup<\/a> section. This list constitutes a small fraction of the external articles and documents that have been instrumental in shaping my thinking on XHTML<\/acronym> and web standards. Of course I can’t begin to list all the articles I’ve read, nor can I provide access to all the personal emails and comments I’ve received of late. My thinking on this issue is still evolving. Still pulling things together. More to come. <\/p>\n
