        <description><![CDATA[That is really funny. Actually I have been with developing web applications for over 15 years. Currently I specialize in JavaScript development along with the REST and SOAP web services. I am fluent in PHP JavaScript,Java, Railo CFML, CSS .NET,  SQL and a variety of other languages and Frameworks. I use it Eclipse almost exclusively and I develop all my applications with a text editor. The only time I use Dreamweaver is for UI/JS development because it is the best tool for the job  What kills me is that you have written a couple of web sites using a text editor and you think you are an expert on the subject. I have been written Enterprise applications for over 15 years using a text editor only. I keep current with what is happened in the web development field and write web applications day in and day out so when you tell me that I don't know what I am doing I can only chuckle and think... what an f-ing idot.Again, You are so stupid/ignorant that you think I'm stupid.]]></description>

With the number of organisations now dumping Flash it seems that my decision was very soundly based and ahead of its time.]]></description>

A lot of it has been depreciated. But browsers support it so not to break old sites.&gt;&gt;As to the AJAX you seem to love, since you raised the subject I've had people send me some links to sites using AJAX and each was a very crappy mashup pushing more ads than any form of data and everyone had spyware or malware on them.Techrepublic uses AJAX  as does Yahoo, Google, Facebook, Gmail, Google Maps, USPS etc. as well as most modern websites. In fact this very web page itself uses AJAX to submit posts.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[the only site with naked females I visit (domai) uses plain html for the bulk of the site and Perl for the shopping cart area that collects data from you.The last two infections that tried to install on my system came from legit regional or local US news sites that were heavy with Flash - however my security settings you often say are draconian caught them and blocked them. They started to run because they were embedded in the Flash code and when the Flash item they were in started up they immediately had the same security permission as the item they were buried, which was nothing on my system.As to the AJAX you seem to love, since you raised the subject I've had people send me some links to sites using AJAX and each was a very crappy mashup pushing more ads than any form of data and everyone had spyware or malware on them.BTW basic html1 or 2 code works just as well in html 5 as well - that's why it's BASIC HTML code as it's in them all as the base code.]]></description>

It really was very useful.&gt;&gt;proprietary software rubbish that is easily infested with malware You do know that websites cannot write to your hard drive unless there is a security hole? Also you do know that if you stopped going to pr0n sites, down loading wares and going to nefarious websites you would not have issues with malware?]]></description>
