Recently I had the chance (volunteer work) to do some web development from the ground up. That’s not part of my everyday work, where I do mostly maintenance on existing web applications. I approached this project with several objectives:
- HTML/CSS standards compliant
- No Table layout
- Attractive, functional layout for screen sizes 800×600 and higher
- Javascript DHTML menus which support a good experience in a No Script environment
- Support the visually impaired by using resizeable fonts
- Provide a good print layout through use of CSS @media selector
- Strong use of CSS
Its still a work in progress! I’m not quite there with 1 and 2 above. I need to continue my quest in those areas. However, I’m quite pleased with other aspects of the objectives above. More later. Here’s a view of my work: http://www.whitebarncondo.com
