Re: [WSG] Compliant tree menu
There are some great examples here: http://www.gazingus.org/ esp. the drop down menu Gav Jackie Reid wrote: Hi everyone... in dire straits here... I am desperately looking for an exploding/folding tree menu that remembers the last state of the menu when you refresh or go back to a page. Have tried all the ones that seem to be available on line but they either dont do what i want, or do what i want and wont validate. Is there anything out there or should i be looking for a java script writer of my own? Is this OT.. if it is ...sorry... maybe you could just email me direct if you have an answer.

[WSG] QA practices
HI, Just wanted to say hi - i have just joined this group and noticed that a lot of you are from Australia!.. are there ppl from elsewhere? I have been involved with web standards for about 6 months now and am a major advocate - I would like to know what Quality Assurance procedures/practices people have in place to make sure ur sites adhere to web standards. I am in the process of drawing up some documents so I can assess sites on compliance of web standards (i.e validation, accessibility,compatibility) Does anyone else have the same? or any good examples of this? thought i'd share some of the sites i view daily Oh and the best css app is topstyle (http://www.bradsoft.com/topstyle/index.asp) web standards resources I use are: www.accessify.com www.sitepoint.com www.alistapart.com http://digital-web.com/new/ standards/css (blog) sites I like: www.alistapart.com www.andybudd.com/blog www.simplebits.com www.stopdesign.com www.hicksdesign.co.uk www.mezzoblue.com www.csszengarden.com Gavin Thomas Web Developer University of the West of England I.T.
