Why I now Hate embed codes!

Yes you read it right, I hate embed codes! Why, you ask? Because 99% of them aren’t XHTML Compliant. Since my blog redesign Rosana Made sure it would be XHTML and CSS Compliant (yeah the buttons on the bottom of the page actually mean something now) click them and see what it says:


So now it’s my job to keep it that way, Rosana gave me some tips on doing that. So whats the problem? Well if I want to insert for ex. a CNETTV video my Blog ain’t compliant anymore and that sucks, same with Flickr if I say to Flickr, ‘post this image on my blog’ it will post something that isn’t compliant. Why can’t big companies just make sure that everything is web standards compliant? Is it so hard to make a webstandards compliant embed? or for that matter a webstandards compliant browser?
