About My Pages

The following are some of my opitions of writting Web pages:

Why NO Best View Announcement?

In fact, I am now using Netscape 2.0 for Web surfing. Of course, my pages will be best viewed with Netscape 2.0. However, The purpose of the World Wide Web is to make documents available to as many as possible, no matter what kind of computer is being used. From character-based terminals to high-end graphics workstations. Is it a bit strange to to ask people to watch your homepage with a particular WWW browser?

Why says can be viewed in ANY size?

Do you think that every one is as rich as you have nice, big 21" monitor? Do you never feel annoying when watch a big page which need to moving both hroztical and vertical scrolling bar frequrently? I know a smallest size limit should exist. But I will try make it as smaller as possible.

Why FEW Netscape Eanhanceded Tags?

Base on the philosophy of World Wide Web which I stated in the first question, I would know my the contents of my homepages can be read clearly with ANY WWW browser. Although it is said that over 80% of internet citizens using Netscape, do you want Netscape be the only one WWW browser in the furture? I hates Micro$oft because I don't want its only one software company, same as Netscape.

Why your pages STILL have Netscape Eanhanceded Tags?

I am not an anti-netscape-ism. I think everything can be abused. Some thing is good or not is depend on how you use it. I would like the outlook of my pages better but won't crash others WWW Browser. Therefore, I will only use some harmless Netscape-ism Tags.

Why your pages still crash in my WWW Browser?

Really? Oh, sorry! Now, I can only check my pages with Netscape 2.0, Lynx 2.3 and NCSA Mosaic. I really don't know what will happen when they are viewed with other Browser but I will try my best to correct the problem. If you find any difficulty on read the Content of the pages, please tell me!

Why Chinese?

I am a Chinese.

Why NOT ALL pages in bilingual?

I am not well in ANY REAL languages. I can't translate everything in both languages. Besides, some local thing can only be written in one of the two languages.

Why NO <BLINK> tags?

Do you know how annoying is it!? Please talk care about the health of others' eyes!!!!!

Why NO Title Animation & Fade-ins?

Oh, that so called auto-refresh(client pull) invented by Netscape and the bug of Netscape 1.2? Do you think every one can download your huge Title page in that few secounds and view your animation smoothly? It is only wasting the bandwidth of other people.

Why NO JavaScript tickers?

It seems that many people think that JavaScript tickers (Some text scrolling on the status bar of Netscape) is very cool. However, IMHO, it is really as annoying as the <BLINK> tags. It makes people fail to reading the information which displayed on that status bar. e.g. the percentage of transfering and the URL of links.
