This one day Web usability testing training course provides delegates with practical examples, comprehensive notes, guidelines and sources of reference.
Gary Robson from North East digital company Industrial Strength, outlined some of the possibilities and difficulties of using HTML5 from a web developer’s point of view.
“We haven’t really used it in any of our projects yet because the browser support simply isn’t wide enough yet (usually down to Internet Explorer)”, he said.
“One of the frustrations of web development is that we usually end up standardising on yesterday’s technology in order to ensure a wide potential userbase and that we aren’t cutting off a large share of possible site visitors to a clients site through compatibility.”
