In Bulletproof Web Design, author and Web designer Dan Cederholm outlines standards-based strategies for building designs that provide flexibility, readability, and user control - key components of every successful site.
Each chapter starts out with an example of an unbulletproof site - one that employs a traditional HTML-based approach - which Dan then deconstructs, pointing out its limitations. He then gives the site a make-over using XHTML and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), so you can see how to replace bloated code with lean markup and CSS for fast-loading sites that are accessible to all users.
Finally, he pieces together all of the page components discussed in prior chapters into a single-page template.
