One of the problems Kzu points out is the massive code blocks bloggers add to their feeds which here are added to a mainfeed that you mainly see. This can get very annoying and is mostly unnecessarily because the blogger ripped it out of a sample or a book that all of us own anyway. That is a whole other topic though. If you want to add a code block to you blog entry, I suggest this post to hide the code for most browsers/aggregators and the reader can toggle its visibility. Check it out and jump on the bandwagon.
It's rewarding to see other bloggers using the same approach I've been using for quite a while for collapsing code regions that maybe be of interest of those who want a closer look at what you've done, but not to all readers, specially on the aggregated site.
If we could just get everyone else using the same, the main page would be much more pleasant. If you want to join this crusade, start using the following for your collapsible HTML regions:
+ Expandable Code Example Here
<![CDATA[<div>
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: white; background-color: blue; cursor: pointer"
onclick="var div=document.getElementById('YourCodeListingDivId');if(div.style.display=='none'){div.style.display='block';this.innerHTML=' - ';}else{div.style.display='none';this.innerHTML='+';}">+</span>
<!-- Some text next to the +|- "link" explaining what's on the hidden region -->
Expand for some cool code.
<div id="YourCodeListingDivId" style="display:none">
...your code...
</div>
</div>]]>
