Thanks for thinkin' of us old clodhoppers, but you can experiment and try out different things if you want. My favorite rule of thumb is simple - would you be proud to show it to your parents?

And if you did show it to them, would they say "Oh.... how... nice"? That barometer is not just for younger programmers like Shea and Kye-U, it's for everybody, even me at nearly 60 years of age. Sure, my folks have passed on, but I still think like that, and that's what counts. Plus, if you're really into making your site accessible (I'm preaching to the whole crowd now, not anyone in particular.), then try The Bobby - that will give you a fair idea of what people from other walks of life think of your site.

Also, while I'm on the soapbox right now (and wouldn't you know it, Jak just snuck up behind me with a box of matches and a can o' gasoline - hmmm. ), Any Browser is a good starting place to find tools that check your pages for cross-browser compatiblity. If you start at the main page, it looks like your have to pay - not so. Surf directly to Site Viewer to see what your pages look like in other browsers, for free. And while you're there, they have a free HTML validity checker at Code Checker. Net Mechanic also does HTML code validation.

And if you're Jor or TEggHead, you can always check for XML validity with the W3C page on that, available at the World Wide Wackos.

OK, that's about it for now. Say, anybody seen the fire extinguisher?.... that Jak, you just can't take him anywhere, can you? :o <_< [lol]
