aanand: Sean: I am replacing some floated divs with a table. Cool? Cool.
Sean: why?
Sean: jpalardy: what kind of shit are you trying to pull?
aanand: Because the event calendar on the homepage *is* a table. I will admit I withheld this information in the hope that you would have a nervous breakdown.
Sean: yes, thats a table.
jpalardy: tables!
Sean: (cap lock)
Sean: PAGINATION IS NOT FUCKING TABULAR
jpalardy: if they created a new tag … let's say <awesome> … which did EXACTLY what <table> does … it would be awesome
jpalardy: without the stigma of <table>, of course
jpalardy: inline (as opposed to block), vertical-centering that works … too good to be true?
aanand: You'd need new <tr> and <td> elements too.
aanand: Like <holyshit> and <fuckyeah>.
jpalardy: I was going for <yeah> and <baby> … but that works too
aanand: That might work better. I like the idea of seeing a whole load of <baby>...</baby> tags.
jpalardy: <yeah><baby><img src="spacer.gif"/></baby></yeah>
jpalardy: (1x1 pixel gif, of course --- caps lock?)
Sean: gfhjfdghjcfgjgfhjg
aanand: Actually <awesome> should instead be named after some other lyrical cliché. Like <cmon>. Then your (non-)table code would look even more like the words to some classic funk number.
aanand: Swapping <yeah> and <baby> would help with this too. Then it'd start with <cmon><baby><yeah> and end with </yeah></baby></cmon>.
webmat: LOL
aanand: Well I know what I'm doing with my next bit of 20% time.
aanand: `mkdir vendor/plugins/cmon`
