Faster Pussycat Productions strongly advocates the use of Web Standards.

We just knew there must be a better approach to web design and development.

One that made sense financially, morally and technically. The nineties practice of using every “hack” available (nested tables, frames, spacer gifs, bad javascript etc.) to create websites just caused further hacks to be needed, unnecessarily increasing the complexity and messiness of the resulting error-ridden HTML code. It was kind of like the proverbial pussycat chasing its tail.

Thankfully all this is behind us, right?

Is it? It should be! In actuality however, it’s an astonishing fact that easily 97% (yes that many) of so-called professional web developers still use these bad practices to build your sites! Why? Because they will avoid learning modern techniques for as long as they can find clients who will pay for obsolete websites. It really is as simple as that.

Seven years on from the end of the nineties, the modern techniques that businesses should be demanding for their money are known as Web Standards, as recommended by the clever people at the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium).

“Web Standards” is the term for a group of specific technologies which, when used in a knowledgeable way, create an easily accessible site which looks great and performs amazingly well on all fronts due to the use of “best practices”. Hack-free and meaningful code (valid XHTML) is used to embed the content. The visual design of the site is completely handled by CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), a simple but powerful technology developed especially for this use. Added functionality and magic is added using modern JavaScript (which has been through rehab, matured, and completely changed its ways since the nineties).

Faster Pussycat Productions brings this to your attention as a public service announcement, if you will, and encourages everyone involved with making website decisions to look into, and demand the use of, Web Standards. This is a subject that we are passionate about and we would love to help you learn more about it. Please don't hesitate to contact us to discuss the benefits of Web Standards further.
