A formatting question that may sound strange to you

[satyr]

Well, I really don't know if this is the right section, but I couldn't find a better one. Anyways, I must also confess that this thread is most probably the "result" of my obsessive pedantry, and the result of me being a kind of a "formatting maniac" ...


For instance, consider my software.html page. As you can see, in all cases where I link to some program's website, I use the colon character after the "strong" closing/ending tag. But the thing is that on the very same page, I also use it the other way, i.e. use the colon char before the closing tag so that it's itself bold too.


The example of one such program's link:

... <strong>BartPE</strong>: <a href="http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder" onclick="target='_blank';">http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder</a> ...

The example of one such navigational text:

<strong>My various blogs:</strong>

<strong>TinyURL:</strong>

<strong>Disclaimer 1:</strong>

So since I am a "formatting maniac" (i.e. I like things to be "consistent" through the whole site/page), I've decided to use the same formatting in both cases (i.e. in case of programs and these navigational etc. texts), therefore I am curious: by various written or un-written design standards, which option from the two is better, and which one would you prefer personally.


thanks in advance, satyr
