Summary: | "No matter how visually appealing or content-packed a Web site may be, if it doesn't reach the widest possible audience, it isn't truly successful. In Bulletproof Web Design, Second Edition, author and Web designer Dan Cederholm outlines standards-based strategies for building designs that can accommodate the myriad ways users choose to view the content. Each chapter starts out with an example of an unbulletproof approach - one that employs traditional HTML-based techniques - which Dan then deconstructs, pointing out its limitations. He then gives the example a makeover using XHTML and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), so you can see how to replace bloated code with lean markup and CSS for fast-loading sites that are accessible to all users. Finally; he assembles all of the page components discussed in prior chapters into a single-page template. This new edition brings the book's content up to speed with Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 and adds several more examples using ems, including elastic layouts."--Jacket |
