I found these XHTML Jokes at Photo Matt though they’re originally from HTML Dog. I’m guessing that only standards-aware web developers will get these, but I found some of them rather amusing:
Q: Why did the XHTML actress turn down an Oscar?
A: Because she refused to be involved in the presentation.Q: Why was the font tag an orphan?
A: Because it didn’t have a font-family.Q: Why do CSS designers have too many children?
A: Because they employ lots of child selectors.Q: Why was IE5’s 3-metre wide cell in the insane asylum smaller than IE6’s 3-metre wide cell?
A: Because the width of the cell included the padding…Q: Why was the XHTML bird an invalid?
A: Because it wasn’t nested properly.
I think the XHTML/Oscar one may be my favorite, though I liked the IE/cell-width one as well. And considering geeks’ general penchant for tech humor, I’m almost surprised that these jokes have only come about now. In any case, they brightened my day a bit :).
