Website standardization
Anyone who slaps a »this page is best viewed with Browser X« label on a Web page appears to be yearning for the bad old days, before the Web, when you had very little chance of reading a document written on another computer, another word processor, or another network.
— Tim Berners-Lee in Technology Review, July 1996
Website standardization of existing or new homepages/websites can be performed according to all major recommendations and standards by World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), The Web Standards Project, ERCIM, Web Standards Group, and The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). The scope of development includes character encoding (e.g., UTF-8), markup language (HTML/XHTML), style sheet (CSS), scripts (e.g., JavaScript), objects (e.g., Flash), metadata (DC, RDF, etc.), and news feeds (Atom or RSS). Resolution and browser independence are also included with interoperability, eliminated version targeting, backward/forward compatibility, and functionality considerations. WCAG/Sec 508 accessibility is provided upon request.
