On one hand, I agree with most of you that W3School isn't accurate or up-to-date or is riled with example that have security holes but on the other I am really thankful for them for getting me into web development. Back then there weren't much options, W3School was the easiest and the best we had. I remember sitting late nights learning to build simple web apps by referencing W3School every few minutes. Getting someone interested into something is very hard, to get a kid interested in sports, you don't start with a ruleset, instead you give him a start and correct him as he makes mistakes. That start was what W3School was for me.
Although I have been defending it, I think they should expire/update w3school. Times have changed and there are better resources to take its place.
I did want to know where it redirects to. I was happy that my curiosity didn't lead me to goatse or the like.
I wonder if anyone's made a Reddit bot or something of the sort to do just that automatically?
