The new design of tri-star-technologies.com features a simplified navigation and design backed by a rigorous foundation of Web Standards as established by the W3C. We've improved accessibility and usability, made the site easier to maintain, and through smaller page sizes significantly improved download time at any connection speed.
The markup language we chose, XHTML
1.0 Strict, enables compatibility with all browsers - past, present, and future.
Use of tables and transparent spacer GIFs for layout has been eliminated;
tables are used only to display tabular data. Deprecated elements such as
the <FONT> tag have been eliminated, significantly decreasing
the volume of markup rendered by the browser.
XHTML is a strict form of the familiar markup language utilized to design websites. It acts as a intermediary toward future extensibility through XML. Adopting XHTML opens the site to be accessible by screen-reading software and many non-traditional browsing platforms such as PDAs.
We use CSS to separately control the layout and design based on how the pages have been marked up by XHTML. Through this separation of style from content we can control the rendering of all fonts, colors, borders, white space, and position of elements.
Because the site's advanced CSS is hidden from older and non-compliant browsers, content is still viewable and very usable - even in the earliest of browsers. So visitors with recent browsers will see the polished site as it was designed, while older browsers will view a raw-text version of the same pages. For example, all page titles, subtitles, paragraphs, and tabular data will be organized in a logical flow.
We hope you find the site useful. Feel free to send us feedback about the site if you have any questions or concerns.
