Artists - make a living in the 21st century.

This sounds oh so familar.

I’m a firm believer that the new age of the internets will destroy record  companies as we know them, prove that movies need theatres,
and people will start making their living online. It’s possible, it’s happening, and it’s going to get bigger and better as time goes on.

So work
has deemed it necessary for ATG Training. Having played with it prior albeit, not for it’s intended e-commerce perspective, I’m looking forward to delving into the power behind the platform - especially it’s customizable components and personalization. This could potentially be my main focus for the next year or so - mastering ATG in the front and back (I’m a ‘tweener, after all).

Thankfully, Andrea Hill reminded me of the seldom known/used XML validation for ATG:

<dsp:page xml=”true”>

That’s right, that one line is the difference in getting that little green check mark in firefox. It’s crazy how hard it was to find that out, but it helps make ATG just a little bit more valid in our standards obsessed world-wide-web.
