This book was born out of the frustration of reading other texts on HTML and Web design and being told
repeatedly that one had to perform one set of tasks in order for a site to look good in the Internet
Explorer browser and one other set of tasks for the site to be viewed in the Navigator browser. Surely, it
wasn't necessary for designers to go to those lengths simply to produce a functional and effective Web
site, was it?
After much rumination and quite a bit of experimentation, I brought together techniques that obviated
the need for such client-dependent authoring. The result is known as the cross-compatibility concept.
Cross-compatibility relies on two basic principles: A valid document is exponentially more likely to
perform as the author intended than an invalid document. When a browser can't handle something in a
valid document, perhaps because it's an older browser faced with new-yet-valid content, the result shall
be a graceful degradation of the intended result or, at worst, simply passing the element content through
in its original state to the browser.
By subscribing to the cross-compatibility concept, Web authors will rarely, if ever, need to provide
browser-specific versions of their Web sites or exclude users who don't have a certain browser. That, of
course, is the essence of Effective Web Design.
