Title: North Korean Website
Post by: Quigibo on August 17, 2010, 07:23:43 pm
OMG this is hilarious! ;D View the page source near the bottom, make sure you have word-wrapping on. In firefox, you can go to veiw->page source and then view->wrap long lines.  Offical website. (http://www.korea-dpr.com/)

What's with all the <strong>'s and </strong>'s? What do they do?

I don't remember, its been a while since I did HTML, but it is very, very redundant.

Ya, just a "little" :P From just looking at a quick reference guide it is apparently just another way to bold the letters or to give emphasis to them.

From the looks of this source, I assume nesting 9000 <strong>s won't do much?

LOL I actually noticed that a few months ago when I randomly searched for "North Korea government site" because I was wondering if they actually had a website. Apparently, yes, and they love using outdated editors :)

EDIT: <strong> is basically bolding IIRC.

oh wow, lol.

Also, <strong> and <b> (bold) are similar but different. Both render the text as bold but <b> is visual and <strong> is visual-auditory. For people who are blind or have very poor vision, there are softwares that will read aloud the contents of a screen. Such softwares would read "a <b>bad</b> day" with constant intonation and put emphasis on "bad" in "a <strong>bad</strong> day". This also holds true with <i> and <em> in the same respect.

At least, that's how it's supposed to work. :P

Yeah you can use some HTML tags but they are more limited for non-admins (for security reasons)

Uh...what are supposed to be seeing?  I can't find any of the <strong>'s anywhere.

Odd, they seem to have removed it. It used to be like a HUGE block of <strong></strong>.

Yeah I remember it. It was insane o.o. I think there are still screenshots of the source, though, somewhere.

Well, it got a major facelift ... and sadly enough, the new site looks slightly better than http://www.usa.gov/ O.O

Lol wow, what about the code, though? :P

Also on an off-topic note, but still related to North Korea, I just found this about the movie called 2012:

I'm glad it isn't PHP where we can't see the code client-side, though, because then we never know what might be hidden in there to harvest as many info from us. :P
