Module 3: WWW Standards - optional ‘standards’ task 2:

W3C VALIDATION
W3C hmmm?

I tested my Metal Chicks Unite! page on the W3C validation page and it had 35 errors so failed validation.

I went through the errors listed and they were all related to formatting - what was standard code for font colour etc raised red flags in the W3C validation. This would cause a display issue which in turn would affect usability of the page.


LEGAL ISSUES
The images I've used on my website are referenced back to the original source which was the owner's requirement for use. This usage does not contravene copyright laws.

The words I've used on my website are my own or referenced if appropriate. I've linked to appropriate Wikipedia pages within the document but have not referenced the links. This should be ok, but a reference stating that the links are to Wikipedia would ensure that this was ok.

Placing the Curtin logo on the page would not comply with the branding guidelines of the university. My site is not affiliated with the university and placement of their logo on this site would suggest that they accept and condone all information on the page.

If the Curtin logo were to be used, it would require agreement by the University's branding regulators and use of a disclaimer.
