Why are so many designers and developers ignoring W3C standards? The W3C created these standards so the Web would work better for everyone, and yet a majority of sites today still don't validate.
I was browsing through this months .net magazine and looking at the section at the beginning of the magazine called readers' sites a showcase for their best work. What a disappointment, all three sites advertised fail to validate.
It makes be laugh when I read that the designer or developer having 5 years, 8 years or even 10 years experience and the site they've developed having some 180 errors.
