Well, according to konqueror developers the design is really buggy, and it's
the site's fault, but they will try to workaround the bugs to get it
displayed properly.

Has anybody ever dared contacting slashdot to encourage them to make their
site valid (X)HTML? www.w3.org contains megabytes of argumentation in favor
of good design..

Well they obviously don't like people trying to validate their html..

I think that's a mistake. The slashdot.org site maintainers are the
ones who made these errors, it is up to them to fix them.

We can rule out "ignorance" on their part, so it's either apathy or
arrogance.

For information, there's a discussion about the new slashdot design bug in
kde-devel mailing list.

Odd, Opera 8.51 gave me "This page is not Valid HTML 4.01
Strict!" and listed three errors.

This merits a slashdot on its own. I will convey that information.
Did you know that a large part of the huge browser code is just
error-correction for this kind of buggy sites? This way, we'll never be able
to read slashdot on a mobile phone.

I don't exactly what happens (I will try without javascript)
but opera sends a non-existent html-page to the validator. The message of the
validator is:
Result: Passed validation
File: default.htm
Encoding:iso-8859-1
Doctype:HTML 4.01 Strict

If you go back to slashdot and look for a file
http://slashdot.org/default.htm you get a 404

Perhaps opera is just giving a random name to the file it uploads to the W3C
validator.

But validome.org reports valid HTML (as of 8 June) and the source code seems
to be the slashdot homepage.

BTW, I tried with konqueror and it did not crash today.

Best,

Rigo

It seems to be valid HTML now, but the CSS still has some errors:

Errors

Line: 176

Invalid number : min-width Property min-width doesn't exist : 0
