Worked from home again today. My eye is better almost completely. I wanted to stay home one more day to make certain I wasn't contagious anymore. Continued working on the problem from Friday. Now all pages served to older browsers include header links and breadcrumbs links. Also, older browsers now show "skip navigation links" to provide for greater accessibility, e.g., to screen readers. Left navigation is not yet done and doesn't show up at all on older browser pages—I'm workin' on it. DOCTYPEs and A NAME tags versus A ID tags are also resolved; I wrote a function to handle the differences. We're now validating on most pages with XHTML 1.0 Transitional on a true (rather than faked) basis. A productive day's work. Stayed up late writing code to import the Campus Calendar into our own site at /pharmd/events/. It works (!), and I threw in a few preg_replace() functions so that their invalid code would validate properly in our site.
