I've only recently joined this group and I find this an interesting
discussion because it is a daily challenge for designers who are
desperately trying to do the right thing. I'm sure we would all love to
see the back of the cowboys in the industry who throw a Frontpage site
together with no doctype and proprietary styles for $200 to the
unsuspecting and naive client.
The question is, how many designers include icons and links on their
sites back to W3C for XHTML and CSS? How many include an icon for
Accessibility? Personally, I don't have all my sites Triple A
compliant, but they do pass automated validation and I include a
Statement to this effect on sites.
I feel that by exposing clients and their visitors to such icons that it
spreads the word about standards. It makes more people aware that they
actually exist and I would encourage all designers to include such icons
on their sites.
Kind regards,
Ric
