Bad Ideas of Web Design

Words by Daniel Aleksandersen on 2006-05-31

Christian Montoya has a great article about Bad Ideas of Web Design.

Let's talk about bad ideas. Not the bad ideas we all know about, like using Flash for navigation, making sites JavaScript-dependent or using inaccessible techniques like layout tables and captchas. I'm talking about the bad ideas that get in the minds of standards-based developers.

His articles covers eight important subjects:

  • Display-on-hover Content
  • SIFRed links
  • Tiny Text
  • Low Contrast
  • Slow Loading
  • Image Dependence
  • Resolution Dependence
  • Flexible Layouts Without max-width

Read up on Christian's thoughts in his article Bad Ideas of Web Design.
