what this site got wrong is just "remember jquery ?", this was a modern thing back then and almost nobody used. Would make more sense "remember tables for everything ?"

Yep, and 1x1 gifs for sizing certain unsize-able elements.

I'm building a web site currently, after a looong break from web development. It's almost unbelievable how much cleaner HTML, DOM and JS have gotten. It's more of a pleasure (only relatively to the previous eras) building pages and you actually don't need frameworks.
