After
conquering the initial hurdles in creating webpages, users
usually get frustrated with the little control over page layout
offered by basic HTML. We will discuss here various options
for handling layout, as well as other effects and interactions
typically added to sites that have advanced beyond the beginnings.
Sensible
use of these techniques always has the user in mind and focuses
not on the visual effect, but foremost on the advantages in
usability these features bring for the site's visitor. Just
as large images will turn off most visitors due to their long
download times, no matter how pretty they may be, in the same
way e.g. a frames-layout that makes part of the text unreachable
for users with a large font preference is bad site design.
