Standards Compliance
XHTML 1.0 Strict
XHTML 1.0 Strict is the most recent version of the eXtensible Hypertext Markup Language. The Strict Doctype has been used instead of the Transitional Doctype to force appropriate use of CSS and ensure reliable interpretation of the HTML in a range of browsers.
Economical use of markup is useful to allow fast display of text content on slow connections. When image sizes are specified and CSS sheets used for styling the content, text can show up properly formatted in a short period of time.
CSS Level 2.0
In this site, CSS has been used both for layout and style. This is to properly separate content and layout and to enable easy rearrangement and alterations of the style of the site, should the need arise. Also, because CSS stylesheets are often cached, bandwidth and loading time are reduced.
