Compliant with the web standards, no deprecated tags such as <FONT> anymore
Does your online html editor still use deprecated tags such as <FONT>? Cute
Editor will help you build sites that adhere to the latest HTML standards, generates
clean HTML/XHTML code with no deprecated tags. Why use web standards?
There are many benefits to learning and using web standards. A few examples:
- Better search engine rankings: The separation of content and presentation
makes the content represent a larger part of the total file size. Combined with
semantic markup this will improve search engine rankings.
- Faster download and rendering of web pages: Less HTML results in smaller
file sizes and quicker downloads. Modern web browsers render pages faster when they
are in their standards mode than when they are in their backwards compatible mode.
- Compatibility with future web browsers: When you use defined standards and
valid code you future-proof your documents by reducing the risk of future web browsers
not being able to understand the code you have used.
- Simpler development and maintenance: Using more semantic and structured HTML
makes it easier and quicker to understand code created by somebody else.
- Better accessibility: Semantic HTML, where structure is separated from presentation,
makes it easier for screen readers and alternative browsing devices to interpret
the content.
- Simpler adaptation: A semantically marked up document can be easily adapted
to print and alternative browsing devices, like handheld computers and cellular
phones, just by linking to a different CSS file. You can also make site-wide changes
to presentation by editing a single file.
