Denver, CO (PRWEB) August 15, 2004
“We regard this as an important initiative. We wanted to encourage our members, most of whom are involved or interested in web development in some form, to help to solve the problem of what are arguably the biggest hurdles for web developers: browser bugs and poor support for W3C standards.” said Karen Bellamy, publisher and founder of the 5thavenuewoman.com web site. “Our goal is not to promote the browser from one company over the other: however, now that there’s a choice of several browsers that do support most of the standards, it’s time.” she added.
“Our site is optimized for the latest, standards-compliant browsers. We try to avoid non-valid markup as much as possible. Our site is somewhere in between going all-out by relying on CSS only for representation, and using lots of heavy handed backwards-compatible workarounds. There’s not a “font” tag to be seen in our markup, nor a JavaScript error message.” noted Bellamy.
“A significant portion of our web site readers are not that experienced in web development. We felt that this was a good opportunity to educate our readers about this issue, as well as show them a living example of how it can be possible to built a site that “works” without bending over backwards to deal with browser bugs” she said.
In order to make the point in a gentle manner, starting today all pages on the 5thavenuewoman.com will include a small reminder to upgrade their browsers. The message will only appear in version 4.x and earlier graphical, JavaScript capable browsers.
Originally conceived as a companion site for a thriving mailing list, 5thavenuewoman.com has grown rapidly from an average of 1,000 hits per day to more than 15,000 per day since its launch in June 2004.
