Table-less Web Designing: by Pseudo Technology
In the previous article “Basic Types and Requirements for Web Designing: PSEUDO TECHNOLOGY” we have discussed about the various techniques of web designing process. But we left the topic of table-less web designing because this topic in itself is a matter of discussion. The first thing you should be aware is that this site is not built using these techniques. The Web Design site on About (and all About sites) is built using tables, and until browsers that support CSS Positioning are more widely used, will be for the foreseeable future. The most important function of table-less web designs is the fact that it greatly facilitates the improvement of accessibility. However they face a bit of difficulty as browser support is minimal.
Browser Support:
CSS Positioning (CSS-P) is the only way to create standards based Web pages using XHTML. Why? Because XHTML requires that tables only be used to define tabular data, and not be used for layout. The problem is, until recently, most browsers only had sketchy support of CSS-P. But now, the following browsers and versions, have minimal to good support of CSS-P, among others:
• Microsoft Internet Explorer 6
• Microsoft Internet Explorer 5
• Netscape Navigator 7
• Netscape Navigator 6
• Opera 6
• Opera 5
• Mozilla 1
• Konqueror 3
• Konqueror 2
Rethinking How You Build a Page:
When you build a site using tables, you have to think in a “tabular” format. In other words, you’re thinking in terms of cells and rows and columns. And your Web pages will reflect that. When you move to a CSS-P web designing, you’ll start thinking of your pages in terms of the content.
For example, the page for this article can be considered to have five content parts:
1. The header
this is where my photo is, the top banner ad, and basic navigation.
2. The left navigation
this is the left side of the page, with the subjects and essentials.
3. The right navigation
this is where the tower ads and other information is.
4. The content
the text of this article.
5. The footer
the bottom navigation, copyright information, lower banner ad, and so on.
Rather than putting those elements in a table, I can use the <div></div> tag to define the different portions of the content, and then use CSS-P to place the content elements on the page. For the sake of this article, I’m going to pretend there are just three columns on the page, and ignore the header and footer.
Identifying Your Sections
Once you’ve defined the different content areas of your site, you need to write them in your HTML. While you can, generally, place your sections in any order, it’s a good idea to place first items you’d like less advanced browsers to see first.
For my three column layout, I’m going to have three sections:
1.leftnavigation
2. rightnavigation
3. content
These will be defined using div tags with the id attribute. Remember, when you use the id attribute, you need to have a unique name for each id.
1.<div id=”leftnavigation”></div>
2. <div id=”rightnavigation”></div>
3.<div id=”content”></div>
Positioning
This is the fun part. Using CSS you can define the position for your id’ed divs. Store your position information in a style call like this:
#content { } Content within a div tag will take up as much space as it can, namely 100% of the width of the current location, or the page. So, to affect the location of a section without forcing it to a fixed width, you can change the padding or the margin elements. For this layout, I set the two navigation columns to fixed widths and then set their position absolute, so that they wouldn’t be impacted by where they are found in the HTML. While the page won’t look wonderful in non-CSS-P browsers, as you can see, it is possible to define how your page will look without any table tags.
The term web designing simply refers to fine art of designing websites that are available on the World Wide Web and are used consistently by individuals. Designers are a very significant part of developing a website as they are responsible for providing color to the external appearance of the website. Therefore, they are vital in providing a lasting impression upon the user, enhancing the popularity of the site. There are various factors and methods that need to be borne in mind when it comes to web designing a website. Websites are filled with written content as well as images and they need to conform to certain forms like JPEG, PNG, GIF and HTML, XHTML etc for written content. One of the methods of designing is known as table-less web design.
