Early in 2006, I decided to get myself seriously into website designing. I read some articles about web design standards. Since I used to work in a development infrastructure and architecture team, I was used to finding standards before starting to do things. In Thailand I did a lot of research and created the development standards that the developers would follow. That is what I think I am very good at. I surf so many websites every day and I know which style of website I personally like and which I don’t.

I began with reading many articles and books. I discovered that today people talk a lot about XHTML and CSS. I already knew about CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) and have been using it for a long time. The idea of CSS is to separate the style from the content. I also like the idea of using XHTML because it makes for well-formed HTML and it is really not difficult to learn the rules of XHTML. As Jeffrey Zeldman said in his article, Better Living Through XHTML “You can learn the rule of XHTML faster than Domino’s delivers a medium pizza with black olives and fresh mushrooms.” I also agree with him that the easiest way to code valid XHTML documents is to write them from scratch.

This website is designed to the XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS2.1 specifications as defined by the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium). Before I publish any page I validate the XHTML through http://validator.w3.org and CSS through http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator. These validations will at least ensure that your web page has cross-browser compatibility. The more valid your HTML coding is, the more people will be able to view it correctly.
