I tell my clients that the only way you can "measure" if your website
(code wise) is any good is by using the industrial standards set by the
W3 and the validators. This also means that if you can't maintain the
site anymore any semi skilled coder should be able to take over. Not
very likely with tag soup, huge scriptbased menus etc.
I'm aware that valid code is not the same as good (wellformed) code...
and just because you use standards doesn't mean the
usability/accessibility is any good.

Kim, I've tried that (they have no idea what the W3C is or validators or
why it matters and don't want to learn) and it doesn't get me anywhere.
I've talked about accessibility and that gets me further (with the
increase font-size bit).
The part about someone else being able to take it over more easily - i
haven't talked about that much. and maybe i could have more of a go
with that.
thanks for your thoughts.
