GBdirect Technical BriefingsWhen time allows we publish technical briefings here. Most of these briefings are `hands-on' style `HOWTOs', in which our staff explain exactly how they implement various ecommerce technologies. Occasionally, we also publish background technical briefings which explain the key features of such technologies, e.g. the basic concepts which underly the technology or the key elements in a system.

CSS/XSLT/XHTML Design at The RegisterGBdirect staff recently completed an overhaul of the content management system (CMS) and website design for The Register. Every user should notice the aesthetic improvements, but we hope that most will also experience significant improvements in usability and performance as a result of the shift to open standards compliant HTML, CSS and XSLT. A brief description of the technologies involved is available and you may be interested in this rather approving account from The Web Standards Project. Journalists and editors are already noticing a dramatic improvement in the usability of the content management system. If you are interested in a similarly high usability, standards compliant, website design please contact our development team at development@gbdirect.co.uk. If you would like to learn how to do something similar yourself, take a look at our website design training course and our Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) training course. |
