After an exhausting day of multi-website programming debugging, I just have one question.
Whose bright idea was it to regularly use FIVE totally different but mutually interacting programming languages to create any given modern web page?
1. HTML
2. CSS (Cascading Stylesheets)
3. JavaScript (aka ECMAScript)
4. PHP (or Perl)
5. SQL (Structured Query Language)
And of course each one is implemented imperfectly or inconsistently, so properly-written code doesn't actually run properly everywhere it's supposed to.
