What do I care
how a browser deals with markup? They could use the algorithm for gamma rays for all it matters. The point is browsers correctly show the DL elements without site-based CSS.
[quote author="Colin Williams" date="1222007496"]Also, the fact that you said a DL-based structure "looks" better already hints that you are thinking of these elements visually and not semantically. [/quote]
Semantics was built for design - not design for semantics. If I destroy a perfect browser-indestructible design because I am worried that I am nearing the "gray" area of a specific semantic ideal - then I am defeating the whole point.
Kind of like government. Government is for the people - not people for the the government. Of course Government
and semantics are important - but they aren't the ultimate goal - people and
designs that work are.
Quote:You know what also "looks" better without CSS rules? Table-based layouts.
Not true, the most beautiful (CSS-less) pages I have every seen do not use tables - or images for that matter
