Ahhh....

Can we make these accessible and standardizeed please

Lowercase Tags
No style tags e.g. Font. These have been outdated for years, and years and years. CSS is used now
No style attributes e.g. Align. Again outdated. CSS is used now
Get some semantics in there. is not the same as . strong is a strong emphasis and em is a slight emphasis. b and i are outdated.
To be really accessible and standardised, the target attribute is non existant.

alan86 · 07-29-2006

ok, i thought that em and strong were the same as i and b...
just a question, if I leave them adding that they are deprecated, is ok?
because much people doesn't know css and so they still use FONT tag for example.

could you please take a look at the other tags on my website and tell me which others are deprecated?
thanks.

Jamie · 07-29-2006

Right...in worl atm so I wont register until I get home but guessing:

All background tags are depreciated
All frame tags are depreicated.
All style attributes e.g. align etc are gone.
Form tags are very structured now. You need fieldset and legend before starting the labels, input and textareas.
Dont forget that some tags and <hr/> need to be self closing. e.g. NOT

Are you kidding? Font tags are the best things SINCE css. Hello css, I want to have a quick colour change for my text, I dont want to have to create a whole new class just for one colour change or one font change.

FONT tags are STILL a great tool. I cant seem to understand why people cant accept this. More so, a lot of new people or people who dont know how to use CSS will WANT to use font tags. Its like me saying we arent going to give pencils to primary school children anymore because pens and white out are far more seperior.

abhisar · 07-30-2006

bgcolors

<body bgcolor="#000000">
<body bgcolor="rgb(0,0,0)">
<body bgcolor="black">
To know code of any color pm me.

bgimages
<body background="clouds.gif">
<body background="http://abhisar.wen.ru/logo.gif">
Note: If you want to use a background image, you should keep in mind:
Will the background image increase the loading time too much?
Will the background image look good with other images on the page?
Will the background image look good with the text colors on the page?
Will the background image look good when it is repeated on the page?
Will the background image take away the focus from the text?

Um...No. Font tags are extremly outdated. They cloudup the markup and create inaccessible areas. If you are changing the colour of your text then there must be a reason. This reason should be semantically marked up adnd not just coourfully marked up. If for example the colour change was to emphasis it more then a strong or em tag should be used. A style can then be applied to this later on.

All font tags do it physically changed the markup, and the problem with that is that markup needs to be semantic and not physical in nature, this is to ensure that both humans and computers can understand the markup, and to ensure that the markup can be transferred across several different kinds of computers, operating systems, browsers etc.

If the web is ever going to become better that it is then semantic markup must grow, although more people and machines to access and understand the content.
