W3C Standards?

Jade · Post #1 (**permalink**) 10-30-2006, 04:00 PM

I have never heard of this until the other week. I normally buy templates and just put the content on the site.

How can I check if my sites are up to the 'W3C Standards'? Or is there no way to check this?

Everything you should need, free and from the source.

If you want to learn more about what the wc3 standards ARE, and not if your site meets them, head over to www.htmldog.com and read the tutorials.

Thanks guys for the links. I just ran my site through the validator and it looks like I have got some work to do!

Great more on my work load, I wish I new about this earlier!

Thank you!

Need some help. My pages are XHTML 1.1 anyone know how to add Imagemapping so it passes the XHTML 1.1 validation?

Thanks however it doesn't meet W3C's Standard in a XHTML 1.1 File. I'm guessing the only way is CSS Imagemap.

Using web standards and separating structure from presentation is going to benefit you today & tomorrow so follow the set of standardization.

No but you always have the satisfaction if you comply with them that your design won't differ on other web-browsers and screen resolutions

If you're a perfectionist like I am you comply with them: P
