Uh, I can't do that, because I know jack about PHP, but I can help write or customize a DTD if we go XML.
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Admittedly the idea was the spawn of an especially tedious day-long tech briefing with 200 word powerpoint slides, but really -- it would ease the difference between a standard page, a fuck-work page, a work-paranoid page and a threadsuck page, neh?
My XSLT is pretty limited, but it does need to improve.

I'm looking at the PHP XSLT engine, and it shouldn't be too bad ... we could start out small, with just the posts in XML and transformed.
I think.
But the whole page should be possible.
I think.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Well, if I've time, that's something I can work on.
Though my eyes may bleed.

How does using XML change our compatibity with various browsers?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The XSLT can spit out exactly the same HTML as we're using now -- it'll just make switching "skins" easier.

I'm just wondering where this fits on the priorities list, since it will make some things easier but take time away from other things.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I'll be scanning in the pic of the Petrie Sprog and the Thank You card, today. To whom do I send the files for upload to the server so everyine can see them?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Or you can send them to me and I'll put them next to the Jossnote.
