As people who hang out here regularly know, we get a lot of the same questions asked repeatedly. Not that people don't deserve help, they do. But people like me tend to get bored and stop answering.

The solution: A funny CSS question contest.

Let me start by asking mine:

Is it ok if I want to design an entire site without using <table>, <div>, <ul>, <li>, etc, and instead use only <dl>, <dt>, and <dd> for my structure? I was just wondering, because if it doesn't pass validation, I am going to throw my monitor through the wall...

ROFL !!
I suppose it would be possible to build an entire site based on a DL, but it would crazy.

wth is a dl? dt? and dd?

Can I style a table-based layout to look like a CSS-based layout?

Can I just not use CSS and make a flash site? And if I do will it be ten times easier to optimize?

Can I style a table-based layout to look like a CSS-based layout?

Yes, but even better is to make a table-based layout that looks like a CSS-based layout that acts like an LI based layout but using DLs to imitate tables.

Can I forget about CSS and not bother to validate my HTML, it all seems such a waste of effort

If I can't make tables OR divs work, do you think LEGOS will work? Are legos WC3 compliant?

of course, just remember that a LEGO is always a block element.

Is it possible to make a CSS layout that uninstalls IE?

No that has to be done with JavaScript.

What about unconditional comments that make IE surrender unconditionally?

Maybe that will be a part of HTML 5

You mean there is no IE destructor?

<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css">
body{display: none;}
</style>
<![endif]-->

Add a link href to your favorite javascript file in place of the style above.

Oh, the temptation....
