Revision as of 16:50, 1 September 2008

This article or section is currently under construction

In principle, someone is working on it and there should be a better version in a not so distant future.
If you want to modify this page, please discuss it with the person working on it (see the "history")

Page is under reconstruction. Probably lots of broken links - Daniel K. Schneider 11:06, 1 September 2008 (UTC).

XHTML documents are XML documents and you should start coding in XHTML (this page needs some tutorials on XHTML, but since there are so many indexes, you'll have to wait maybe forever).
