I know a lot of desingers who practice standards on a front end, but not when designing private administration systems. The point of standards is they are future proof, hense I try to make sure everything is compliant.

Terry, thanks for the comment. When I first got into standards I used to check sites all the time but got away from it. Lots of sites I go to are blogs and sometimes CMS’s get screwy with valid code.

This site isn’t valid at this point either because of things I’ve added over the past few months. But I’m not concerned with it much anymore since I am working on a redesign.

Thank you!!

Standards always matter, in everything!

I am really only a novice, but I am continually reading about standards and accessibility. I do two things whenever I visit any website:

1. See how many errors and warning there are and check to see if there is a doctype.

2. Resize the text to very large to see how far I can go before the site breaks.

Your site is excellent by the way.
