Talk:Comparison of layout engines (Non-standard HTML)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

How about adding a column or another section that shows what standard HTML/CSS code can be used to achieve the same effect as these non-standard tags?

[edit] XMP

I removed the assertion that XMP is equivalent to the PRE tag as it is simply not true. XMP does not render any of the tags that are inside it, while PRE will. Itsdannyg 17:08, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

There is a w3C document with a different definition of the xmp and listing elements. Should this be noted somehow in the article? --Execvator (talk) 14:31, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
The LISTING element is portrayed so that at least 132 characters will fit on a line.
The XMP elementis portrayed in a font so that at least 80 characters will fit on a line but is otherwise identical to LISTING.
How about to make this in an extra article (similiar to blink and marquee) and then give here a very short explanation?!? Mabdul (talk) 14:46, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
Would it be notable enough to have its own article? Blink and marquee are "widely" known because of their usability and accessibility issues while xmp appears to be pretty unknown. I was thinking more about just adding a short footnote, if it should be mentioned. --Execvator (talk) 18:37, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
mmh, why not making for all html-tags its own article? a real wiki (specialised for programmers) --> with a cool navbox? why not? ok, it would to much work, but both (footnote and article) are great...Mabdul (talk) 22:49, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] to-do list

  • more yes/no's
  • more versionnumber seeking

* MSIE Proprietary attributes (source: http://victor.transformadora.com/Oreilly/wdesign/wdesign/appd_01.htm )

  • rename of the article
