What's all that stuff in the source code? Pierre Jelenc 08-25-2004

I've been asked to do a favor to a friend and fix the site at
http://www.cwrpartners.com/

I'm totally baffled by the amount of rubbish in the header section; is
that the kind of coding that Microsoft Publisher does in real life? I've
always written my code by hand with a text editor, so I have no idea
what's going on there.

(Not surprisingly, it is not valid HTML or CSS!)

Thanks,

Pierre

All Microsoft Office products produce web pages like this. It's an elaborate
layout and data definition language. The proprietary attributes are ignored
by conforming browsers, and the non-HTML, non-CSS declarations and so on are
commented out so that non-IE browsers won't see them.

Oy. Thanks; I think I'll beg off the project, I can feel too many
arguments coming!

Just start from scratch? Re-write the thing, it wouldn't take too long, i'd
imagine.

Feel free to snag this sample, which took me about 10 minutes of copy
and paste of your page's text.

Approximately 5KB for page and style sheet.
