It's time once again to break the "professional examples only" rule and showcase yet another HTML WTF. A.S. discovered it when he copy-pasted the university bookstore's extended hours into an email to his students. The poor fellow updating the bookstore's web page found a rather unique way to avoid learning to use linebreak tags:
Extended Hours January 17 - 27, 2006
Wednesday, January 18 - 8:30am - 8:00pm aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Thursday, January 19 - 8:30am - 8:00pm aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Friday, January 20 - 8:30am - 6:00pm aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Monday, January 23 - 8:30am - 8:00pm aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Tuesday, January 24 - 8:30am - 8:00pm a aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Wednesday, January 25 - 8:30am - 8:00pm aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Thursday, January 26 - 8:30am - 8:00pm a aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Friday, January 27 8:30am - 6:00pm
Hint: hilight the text above. For a different view, here is the (formatted) HTML ...
