There doesn't seem much seriously wrong here, but here's some best practice issues for whatever they're worth: * Provide textual equivalents for the logo and tag line in the site banner. Ensure the information doesn't disappear when the users' color choices are enforced and/or background images are not displayed. IMG with ALT is generally preferable to using "background-image"-based text replacement for this reason: http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#text-equiv (The tag line should probably just be straight text.) * Specify color, background-color, and (optionally) background-image all together, in order not to conflict with user's chosen color defaults: http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10-CSS-TECHS/#style-color-contrast * Indicate language with lang="en" on "html": http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-lang-why * Explicitly specify the encoding in your HTTP header (Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1) to discourage user agents trying to guess (HTTP headers take precedence over "http-equiv" markup, though the later is used when a document is loaded locally). http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/charset.html#h-5.2.2 * Move <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> to be the first child of "head", since it could affect how later content is interpreted: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/charset.html#h-5.2.2 * If this page is meant to attract search traffic, link text beginning with "Back to" seems odd (non-optimal for users and SEO). * It's a small and debatable point, but I think hyphenated-class-names have the slight edge over camelCaseClassNames of matching microformat conventions and compressing very slightly better: http://microformats.org/ http://www.websiteoptimization.com/speed/tweak/lowercase/ -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
