A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Accessible XHTML and CSS Web Sites

Problem – Design – Solution

This book teaches anyone who already knows about creating Web pages in HTML how to bring their skills up to date and take advantage of XHTML and CSS to create attractive sites that also meet accessibility laws and guidelines.

By looking at how to update an example site written in HTML, you will learn how the latest Web standards allow you to create Web pages that will last longer and work in more browsers. You′ll be introduced to a series of common situations, explore possible solutions, and learn to implement the best choice.

First, you will learn how to write XHTML markup. Then, you will see how to control the presentation and layout of your pages using CSS. And finally, you will learn how to meet accessibility requirements.
