Should you redesign your site or are HTML tables still a standard in Web Design? Let’s discuss this important topic!
Is XHTML or HTML best for me?
To be able to really benefit from using XHTML, you should understand the main differences between one and the other.
Programmers no longer recommend HTML tables for layout by current web standards. The markup language of XHTML can be considered the next generation of HTML. If your site was designed on a basis of HTML using a table layout, then you should starts thinking about a redesign.
Currently, programmers and designers recommend a CSS-based layout for web design. This will make your web site fully compatible with all technologies, current and future. Â CSS layouts are search engine friendlier, and this will obviously help your web site have a much better ranking. Â CSS layouts will make your web site much easier to redesign in the future, Â if needed.
You also need to assure your web site has full compatibility with all the recommended standards. Your web site should be XHMTL compliant; assuring your site will be compatible. It should also be accessible to disabled people according to the web accessibility guidelines.
Summarizing:
To prepare your documents for the future, you should use a Strict doctype, which matters much more than if you choose to use XHTML or HTML.
Last, but not least take a look at how your web site has its graphic design made, if it looks outdated, not trendy and in synch with the current times you should consider having your web site redesigned.
