Bill B's Advice

Always test-view your web designs with a text-only browser like LYNX. Ifyour webpage is not usable by this most basic of all browsers,you will also drive away or offend such users as: Google spider and others. Google is like a blind internet user!People with graphics turned off for speed (large number of users) The community of vision-impaired net users (using text/speech sw) People using VT-100 terminals in libraries People on inexpensive "freenet" accounts Low-income school kids using 286 machines and 2400b modems People who use LYNX for ultra-high speed Web exploration Users on UNIX shell accounts using Lynx for convenience (me!) Actually, it's a very good idea to develop all your pages with atext-based browser, then add necessary graphics later. This will forceyou to view your page as a provider of content, as is only right. Itforces you into a top-down design for browser compatibility. First youcreate the content, then add graphics, then add layout, then fancyfeatures. This gives your page "graceful degradation" when broswerincompatibility issues arise: some browsers can't see the fancy featuresbut everything else works. Others screw up the layout, but at least thegraphics and text content comes through. Some users won't see thegraphics, but all the text is still there. This is good design, and evenat worst it is still usable by nearly all browser software. Always include a webmaster's "mailto:" link at the bottom of every page. (or, to avoid spam, include a form which forwards email, or instead use aGIF or JPG graphic of your email address which spammer software can'tread.) That way if you accidentally screw something up on your page, somenice person MAY tell you about it eventually. If there's no obvious wayto contact the page owner, your embarrassing mistake might remain therefor ages. Always include a link to previous pages or to the top of your site. Large numbers of users come to your site through deep pages found byweb-search programs. If some tiny fourth-level submenu on your siteattracts lots of users, yet it doesn't point directly to the rest of yourvast and wonderful website, those users who find the subpage will have noclue that the rest of your site even exists.On the top page of your site, never use frames, image maps, animations,or gigantic gif/jpegs/audio files. You want to welcome ALL browser types,at least initially. If your top page contains specialized techniqueswhich aren't compatible with all browsers everywhere, then anyone who usessome slightly-incompatible software will immediately leave in disgust. Ifyou have to offend certain users with a frames-heavy, graphics-heavy site,at least hook them in with a good, fast-loading top page. Save the slowor incompatible stuff for deeper menu levels. Your top page should beintentionally text-only (with maybe a few small, fast graphics), and witha link to GRAPHICS VERSION and FRAMES VERSION. Not the other way around! http://amasci.com/mistake.htmlCreated and maintained by Bill Beaty. Mail me at: .
