XHTML for Future-proofing your Web Site
Writing XHTML starts with the same basics as used to create ordinary HTML pages. These are:
- Know your visitor and what these visitors want to do
- Design the structure of the site first
- Apply the skills of design, writing, technical know-how and sales to the project, even if this is a one-person project
- Chunk individual information into ideas, chunk data into meaning (Constructivist Approach)
- Show relationships of information, and link related information
- Keep the design simple and consistent
- Design each page with care
- Keep the focus of the design “Visitor-Centered”, rather than designing for school district or organization administration
- Focus more on visitor outcomes than upon visitor's experience of graphics and state-of-the-art technologies
