Should you need some special fonts you have sIFR or Facelift (I recommend Facelift as it produces images, not flash content).
As a JS framework, I recommend jQuery (as it is small and easy to use). Also, if you need something like Lightbox, I recommend using Fancybox (looks better, is smaller and acts better).
For HTML and SEO, I always forget to put some meta tags and stuff, so I made myself a default HTML scheme (which to use for any website):
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 | <!-- My HTML v1.000 --> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <base href="http://www.example.com/" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/> <!-- No Cache --> <meta http-equiv="PRAGMA" content="NO-CACHE"/> <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="Mon, 04 Dec 1999 21:29:02 GMT"/> <!-- End No Cache --> <link href="css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/> <title>Example HTML</title> <!-- SEO --> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="ro" /> <meta name="Robots" content="index,follow" /> <meta name="revisit-after" content="2 weeks" /> <meta name="Description" content="example description goes here" /> <meta name="Keywords" content="example,keywords" /> <!-- End SEO --> <!-- JS --> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/main.js"></script> <!-- End JS --> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="ico/favicon.ico"> </head> <body> <!-- Content goes here --> </body> </html> |
Also, sometimes, if you cannot fix some IE CSS bugs or you just don’t have the time simply add the IE conditional tags. I usually use (if necessary):
33 34 35 36 37 38 | <!--[if IE 7]> <link href="css/ie7.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/> <![endif]--> <!--[if IE 6]> <link href="css/ie6.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/> <![endif]--> |
