WHAT IS W3C?
The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) is an international consortium where Member organizations, a full-time staff, and the public work together to develop Web standards. W3C's mission is:
To lead the World Wide Web to its full potential by developing protocols and guidelines that ensure long-term growth for the Web.
Excerpt from the W3C:
W3C COMPLIANT WEBSITES
Our sites are developed in accordance with W3C's guidelines. By using the standards set by these organizations it ensures that your site will be compatible with future developments in the fast moving world of the web.
Valid HTML code is a first step toward more compatibility with browsers and better rendering on the latest ones. Using only strict HTML (that is, the Strict HTML DTD) makes the site easier to maintain and evolve.
