Web standards - more than just 'table-free sites' The term web standards can mean different things to different people. For some, it is 'table-free sites', for others it is 'using valid code'. However, web standards are much broader than that. A site built to web standards should adhere to standards (HTML, XHTML, XML, CSS, XSLT, DOM, MathML, SVG etc) and pursue best practices (valid code, accessible code, semantically correct code, user-friendly URLs etc). In other words, a site built to web standards should ideally be lean, clean, CSS-based, accessible, usable and search engine friendly.

Web accessibility denotes inclusive practice of creating websites that are usable by people of every disabilities and abilities. On the developing, designing and editing of sites, all the users are provided equal access to functionality and information. It is basically the activity of creating websites and web applications that are inclusive and user-friendly by people of all ability and disability levels.
