When the Web was new, designers and webmasters hacked together web sites using nested table layouts and tags ("spaghetti code"). Using XHTML, it's time to start designing your web sites using the new standards set up by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). Standards aren't about leaving users behind or adhering to inflexible rules. Standards are about building sophisticated, beautiful sites that will work as well tomorrow as they do today. You can't afford to design tomorrow's sites with yesterday's piecemeal methods. Join Mark Branom and Brian Young as they talk about ways to enhance your web site both for today and the future by using XHTML and the W3C standards.
