I've used the "Windows User Experience Interaction Guidelines" http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa511258.aspx. It is mainly for design principles, but it includes rules for documenting interface components. It's a downloadable PDF, and is almost 900 pages long. (!)

Hi all, My company is working on web-based applications. In the past, we've used the Microsoft Manual of Style for Technical Publications as our style guide for installed apps, but I'm looking for a source that includes more web app information. For example, what are the usage rules for screen, tab, page, link, log in, sign in, etc. Is there a style guide out there that anybody would recommend? Thanks! Amy
