If I've tested my pages in most major browsers, why would I need to maintain a validated code? I want to use box-shadows and corner radius if they're supported in WebKit browsers and Firefox. I don't care if they don't show up on Internet Explorer. But I keep my HTTP requests down by not including images instead. Are there are advantage...

When I receive XML data (via a Twitter API call, in this instance), I imagine it's best practice to somehow validate it before I begin working with it? My app has had a lot of untractable issues lately, and I want to rule out bad XML data. Does XML ever go "bad" somehow? Would an overloaded server like Twitter's ever spit out just half ...
Is there any event like OnValidate in LINQ where I can add my business validation rules so that they are ALWAYS called whenever I use Add() or Update()? If not: What do you suggest to do?

Then the user is returned a message based on this error and told the object was not updated.

I am working with a vendor applet, The applet works fine with JRE 1.4.2_X and 1.6.X but fails on every version of 1.5.X. Running with 1.6 is not an option due to another application conflict that does not play nice with Java 6. The issue I believe is that the DTD is not being validated. This is causing the "not declared" problem and the...
