    "XML, HTML, Javascript, Web and CGI" + CSS?

    I think that the name of this forum topic should include CSS. There are alot of questions about it and a growing trend. I think that some may browse this site and not think that there is a css question where they could get "sufficient" answers...

    Just a thought

    I think (HTML, Javascript) implies that people around here know CSS also
    So it's not really necessary

    It may not be "necessary" but could it hurt?

    3 more characters in the database wont cause the site to crumble...

    That category has a lot of things it 'could' include, but need not.

    XHTML, Css, DHTML, AJAX, ColdFusion, Flash, CGI, Perl.

    I think it's long enough as it is, and many of the ones mentioned above are interwined and related to each other, the current title sufficiently implies all of them. Unless you're a rocket scientist

    PS: Web implies all of that. And more. Maybe even Ruby.

    XHTML, Css, DHTML, AJAX, ColdFusion, Flash, CGI, Perl, Web Services, Javascript, ....

    why not just call it "Web Technologies"

    I agree, I was thinking that a while ago. "Web Technologies" or "General Web" or something along those lines. Maybe it could be moved next to the PHP forum as well, rather than having C/C++ and Java in between.

    And then the individual langauges can go in the description. Something like "Discuss web technologies such as XML, HTML, CSS, Javascript, CGI, Perl, ColdFusion here, ASP.NET, ASP&VBScript and PHP have their own forums".

    I agree with that
    it's the best idea so far

    CSS is more important than CGI in today's world (in my opinion), so I've tweaked the title a little bit for now.
