Working together for standards The Web Standards Project


As we code, we must make the pledge that we shall always code for the future. We cannot turn back. There are those who are asking the devotees of web standards, "When will you be satisfied?"

We can never be satisfied as long as our pages cannot avail themselves of child selectors. We can never be satisfied as long as our bodys, burdened by excessive spacer graphics and font tags, are inaccessible on even the least deserving handheld device. We can never be satisfied as long as trunks are locked, and ties smeared with ketchup. No, no, we are not satisfied and we will not be satisfied until DOCTYPEs roll down like waters and validation like a mighty stream.

The time is now. Rise up, and march for web standards.

(With apologies to the great Dr. King)
