Robert + CSS = true

Published on Wednesday, June 22nd, 2005

Vorsprung durch Webstandards has a nice collection where people declare their love to CSS. There’s also a short interview with yours truly there.

I like interviews. I always wish they were longer and really get inside people’s heads. Nonetheless, great to see you up there

Jeroen,

Thank you!

If interviews were longer, you’d just find flaws in my reasoning…

However, it has to be said, I pointed out to the Vorsprung webzine who I am and they thought I was suiting in their list.
I didn’t get the initial invitation as the rock stars of blogging got…

Quite interesting.
Hrm. I might have something for you soon, Robert. :-p

A-ha. Invited yourself, did you now. Sneaky!

Roger,

Yep!

Well, in my humble opinion, they forgot me and Faruk (probably amongst many others), so I asked and they agreed that I should be on that list.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Faruk on that list too, some time soon…

Robert,

As you know, being in love with someone (or something, as in this case) usually means that you do not see the bad sides of the one you’re in love with.

However, since I have observed your relationship with CSS in some projects, I know that you have passed the initial crush and now are more in a stage of mutual respect.

By the way, I’d very much like to read about how you see the marriage between DHTML pulldown menus and CSS, and how accessibility fits into that picture.

Oscar,

I do hope that CSS and I have reached a deeper level in our relationship, yes.

By the way, Iâ€™d very much like to read about how you see the marriage between DHTML pulldown menus and CSS, and how accessibility fits into that picture.

Oh my…
That’s not an easy question. Generally, I don’t really like them, I think and hope there are other ways around.

But there definitely is a vast difference between using them for public web sites and for intranet solutions. It depends on your target audience too.

A very good post about this is Usability and Fly-Out Menus by D. Keith Robinson.
