false 259072 3 Standards, argues Jeffrey Zeldman in <I>Designing With Web Standards</I>, are our only hope for breaking out of the endless cycle of testing that plagues designers hoping to support all possible clients. In this book, he explains how designers can best use standards--primarily XHTML and CSS, plus ECMAScript and the standard Document Object Model (DOM)--to increase their personal productivity and maximize the availability of their creations. Zeldman's approach is detailed, authoritative, and rich with historical context, as he is quick to explain how features of standards evolved. It's a fantastic education that any design professional will appreciate.<p> Zeldman is an idealist who devotes some of his book to explaining how much easier life would be if browser developers would just support standards properly (he's done a lot toward this goal in real life, as well). He is also a pragmatist, who recognizes that browsers implement standards differently (or partially, or not at all) and that it is the job of the Web designer to make pages work anyway. Thus, his book includes lots of explicit and tightly focused tips (with code) that have to do with bamboozling non-compliant browsers into behaving as they should, without tripping up more compliant browsers. There's lots of coverage of design and testing tools that can aid in the creation of good-looking, standards-abiding documents. <I>--David Wall</I><p> <B>Topics covered</B>: Why Web standards (such as XHTML, CSS, ECMAScript, and DOM) are good for everyone, and why site designers and browser makers should move towards standards compliance. 251102 24 5 2003 Designing with Web Standards total:213|5:83|4:96|3:27|2:6|1:1| 213 893 348 24 5 1 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Tue Jan 22 19:24:41 -0800 2008 Tue Jan 22 19:26:33 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Thu Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Sun Nov 18 21:58:21 -0800 2007 Sun Nov 18 22:27:32 -0800 2007
