Web Standards, Accessibility & More

Here are some recent blog articles that are a must read for any web developer (especially front-end coders).

• Internet Explorer 8 and Acid2: A Milestone – Microsoft folks are claiming that IE8 will be standards-compliant.
• A Preview of HTML 5 – Wazzup with the next version of HTML?
• Add and Remove Elements with JavaScript (reprise) – very powerful code for implementing your unobtrusive JavaScript.
• Secure and Accessible Contact Form v3 – from Mike Cherim’s Beast-Blog, a great standards-friendly and accessible contact form (using PHP).

“Don’t be an Internet Fool” is a great article from Mike Cherim at Beast-Blog. It’s about all the email scams out there, and how conniving and sometimes silly they are (hopefully you haven’t fallen for any of those listed). It’s quite the amusing read.
