Thank you for remedying my ignorance; I was in fact mistaken. It's too late to edit my comment, but I won't repeat my invalidated claim again.

That said, I will continue to resent and distrust and disparage w3schools because of their shady past. The only reason they cleaned up their act was the concerted efforts of w3fools, Paul Irish et al -- which efforts were only ever expended bc w3schools had succeeded in pwning SEO/SERPs and it was such a distraction and blight on our profession.

It's like a politician gaining office via election fraud / ballot-stuffing, then proposing legislation to improve voter rights; they shouldn't be in office.
