Jason plays tag with mom.

I read the latest Foxtrot comic strip, and couldn't help giving a few pointers:

  1. 'Nuff said.
  2. Macromedia has a short and sweet explanation for using <strong> and <em> instead of <b> and <i> respectively: While the latter tags are not yet deprecated, they only achieve a visual effect. The former tags make more sense to screen readers which will read the text out more loudly. A W3C workshop on accessibility says: the use of EM and STRONG elements is superior in the sense that they describe the content without committing it to a specific format.
  3. Jason isn't always polite, but he should try to mind his </p>s and </q>s.
