00:02.26TD-Linuxyou can't have a pure CSS layout :)
00:02.33TD-Linuxit still has to have HTML tags
00:02.37a_meteoriteyou can have a pure semantic layout styled via CSS
00:02.38blast007TD-Linux: his point was pushing the presentational portion of a webpage into CSS instead of using tables as a crutch
00:02.50a_meteoriteWinny: hop in
00:03.02Winnytables were NOT meant to be used as a layout device
00:03.16blast007Winny: put your left foot in, put your left foot out, put your left foot in, and shake it all about
00:03.19a_meteoritepresentational and style inherently make sense to be separate
00:03.25TD-Linuxyou end up including layout in HTML no matter what anyway
00:03.30Winnyit is one million times easier (yes, one million) to make a proper layout using divs, spans, etc
00:03.34a_meteoritethen you're doing it wrong
00:03.47a_meteoriteHTML should be nothing more than a semantic hook and anchor for your CSS
00:04.04blast007a_meteorite: so you're saying that if you turned off CSS on a webpage you had, it would have absoutely no layout?
00:04.11blast007you made*
00:04.41Winnyif you think CSS doesn't offer enough benefits to move from tables, you need to do some research
00:04.43Winnyseriously
00:04.50a_meteoriteif would have layout, according to the default styles of the semantic HTML you use
00:08.12Constitution~dict semantic
00:08.30a_meteoriteHTML elements of themselves have semantics, tables do not, since they are meant for tabular data.
00:08.44a_meteoritethe only semantics they carry is when they are used for their intended purpose.
00:09.41Constitution"HTML elements"... as in span and div?
00:09.57a_meteoriteyou are thinking of div/span-itis
00:10.26a_meteoritethere are other elements which make sense in certain places such as <hx>, <strong>, <ul>/<li> and even the id or class names themselves
00:10.38Winnydiv span, header, images, lists, links, etc
00:11.23ConstitutionI fail to see the semantic significance of <strong>
00:11.26a_meteoriteindeed
00:11.58a_meteoriteConstitution: a <strong>'s contents are inherently of something importance, or of other complimentary use
00:12.12a_meteoritefor example, possibly a date under a header

22:59.31spldartWhere does one go to find in Vista to add say a folder with a specific group of apps inside it to go in my 'start' menu?
23:00.23tj13820you want the folder for your start menu?
23:00.49spldartI gues that's what I want.. like in documents and settings user start menu
23:00.51spldartin xp
23:01.08tj13820right click on start and go to "Explore all users"
23:01.15spldartI'd like to organize a bit
23:01.17tj13820that's the same thing
23:02.04tj13820not everything will show up in that though, so you will have to go to "C:\Documents and Settings\name***\Start Menu\Programs"
23:02.13spldartAh! right click on "all programs" and click "explore all users"
23:02.28tj13820lol
23:02.48tj13820right, but also go to the other one, as not everything is in the "ALL USERS" folder
23:03.50spldartI'm not seeing a "documents and settings" in c: though I expect that in xp but I don't see it here
23:04.21me1vista? it's under \users\ iirc
23:04.54spldartC:\users\me\ what?
23:05.44me1c;\users\you\start menu
23:05.50me1if they didn't change that too
23:06.02spldartcan't find 'start menu'
23:06.03spldarthuh
23:06.06spldartwell
23:06.21spldartlet me try tj13820's first idea... see if that get's me what I want
23:06.50me1you can just right click on program files and hit 'explore' that'll give you _your_ start menu
23:07.14me1er, not program files, all programs
23:07.48spldartAh.. That was tj's idea...
23:08.12spldartStill getting used to modern 64 windoze.. I was stuck in the stone age for a few years.
