Standards we employ
XHTML & Stylesheets
An organisation called the W3C defines standards for building websites. One of the latest of these is XHTML 1.0 Strict This is a language which is used to build web pages and which will dovetail with future forthcoming XML presentations enabling a whole range of opportunities for website functionality and added features!
In conjunction with XHTML stylesheets (CSS) is a very powerful combination. With just one stylesheet a whole site can be styled. For example,the font for the whole site can be changed in seconds with this technology rather than having to trawl through each page indivdually. Each page is much smaller in code terms resulting in faster download times.
We don't use the old 'table' hack for creating page layout. We do this all by properly by CSS.
We Validate All Pages
It is so important to build pages without errors in them if they are to look consistently good. Before any of our pages are published they are first validated through the W3C validation service.
Cross Browser Compatibly
We extensively test our sites on several browsers including;
W3C Accessibility Guidelines
In order to make the WWW available for all we adhere to principles to comply with W3C suggested standards.
