THE SEAHAWKS WON!!!
lol, sorry Whistler ... although the Seahawks did play a good game, it wasn't worthy of a separate post so I had to stick my victory dance someplace

Can we try to be a little bit more careful with the code posted here people?

Alright...I’ll explain why it’s important to mind your code.

I’ve corrected seven bad code comments just today. A few the other day. The problem is among the regulars and it is getting worse.

I can’t even correct Anna’s above comment. In the admin board, the comments normally have a clickable link should the need to edit arise. Anna’s comment, however, has a blank space for some reason. With nothing to click, there are two options: leave it alone or erase it. I’ve only ever seen this situation one time before with this blogging software and that was earlier today on one of Joel’s comments. His comment ended up screwing the entire page up. I’m sure all of you have seen this happen before. Since I couldn’t edit it, I had no choice but to delete it. (Luckily for him, his entire comment was blank, so I didn’t end up erasing anything.) Hence, my warning.

I don’t mind correcting the code, but after seeing two comments today that leave the admins with the very limited choices as explained above, I figured a public warning was in order. I don’t want to be forced to erase comments. Just be careful and mind your p’s and q’s.

I have no clue why my link posted like that. When I did a preview it was normal ... but maybe my normal isn’t somebody else’s normal.
I will admit coding to blogs is new to me so maybe (I know, hard to believe huh?), but maybe I mistakenly wrote the code for something I am more used to coding for.
likwidshoe, please feel free to delete it if you need to and thank you for taking the time to point it out

Your comment is fine Anna. It isn’t messing the page up or anything.

You yourself can see what you did wrong if you look at the page source. You started off with an image tag that you never closed which then went directly into a center tag that was never closed which then went into a proper image tag (the dancing guy) which then went into a link that didn’t even really start.

That’s a lot of messed up code in a little space. It’s so messed up that if we translated it into English, it would be analogous to a retarded person stuttering really fast.

But no biggie.
