I tend to go the high compatibility route on website design. For instance, the fixed position property is great, but doesn't work on IE. If I do want to use that, I generally have it as an additional style sheet to the normal one. That way, I can give the user a link which, when clicked, tells the PHP to add that style sheet to the user's list (stored in a session) and add links in the header for future page requests.
Gosh... I'm tired. Hope that made sense.  |
Me too.
But seriously, keep it as simple as you can, and so that if I turn off style sheets and disable javascript, I still can use your page. Keep images to a minimum and use as much CSS to replace effects (like mouseovers) as you can to keep things looking pretty.
I'm working on this little portfolio page for myself, and while Javascript is used, everything works perfectly if you turn off Javascript. Don't let no javascript mean that things don't work!
