Hmmm. I think I prefer blakem's plain text approach. On my browser, epoptai's page produces a font size that requires a magnifying glass to view. Thankfully my browser includes one, but pressing it increases all the text on the page and I had to press it a couple of times to get back to my default "regular" text size-- which is the size I expect most of the text on a page to be in. That's why that size is the default. Then he's gone and used form inputs as display elements. I suppose form elements can be seen as graphic widgets, but I have a tendency to expect them to do something.So maybe our opinions differ about what is good web design, but blakem's code is solid Perl and that gives it a decent foundation upon which to build and add embellishments and prettifications. But as I said, I like it the way it is. :)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
