Browser Compatibility
Internet Explorer, created by Microsoft has been the most popular web browser for many years. But the gap is shrinking with the release of Mozilla Firefox, by an open source community.
At the last count it is said that there are 64 million Firefox users on the Internet. Growing in massive numbers by the day. So, the issue with browser compatibility is at its highest importance. The way browsers are constructed; they can show a web page slightly differently. For instance, the IFRAME tag shows perfectly in Internet Explorer but does not show in Firefox. This is only one of many instances of none browser compatibility.
Therefore, webmasters should be making sure their web page is viewable in both Internet explorer and Firefox equally. If it doesn't, then they risk loosing a large percentage of web users. There is nothing worse than surfing a web site and not being able to see it properly in a particular browser. The solution for webmasters is to make all their pages XHTML transitional. Web sites that validate to this have a higher chance of being viewed correctly in all major browsers.
XHTML is the next generation web language, and is said to replace HTML eventually. XHTML was released in January 2000.
XHTML is not a difficult language to learn, it is basically identical to HTML but the main difference is that tags in XHTML always have an end tag. For example, a IMG SRC tag in HTML has no end tag. In XHTML the IMG SRC tag has the end tag of />
TDTSolutions Web Standards Policy
TDTSolutions takes website validation seriously. Yes.. I'll be the first to admit we've made websites that don't correspond to Web Standards but it is now our policy to make all new and old websites developed by TDTSolutions to meet all requirements and standards. If you find that one of our portfolio pieces does not meet standards, its only because this policy is new and we are working hard to make all of our websites comply with Web Standards.
This little button on the left here... well.. if you press it... you will see that this page complies with today's XHTML web standards! Go ahead, and give it a try. I dare you!
TDTSolutions uses Firefox
TDTSolutions fully supports Firefox and uses this browser everyday. As much of a challenge multiple browsers pose to a webmaster and how a user will view it, we do our best to make every effort to compensate for the differences each browser has. If you look at this website in both Firefox and Internet Explorer, you will notice on the front page when you see the little astronaut pop up he looks quite different in Internet Explorer than Firefox. The reason for this is because Internet Explorer doesn't fully support images that are PNG, however, Firefox fully supports PNG image files and you will see a transparent background.
