2. How to Avoid Bad HTML
------------------------
   Here are some things to avoid in your web pages. 

    - Browser specific HTML 
    - Too many animated GIFs. 
    - Complex backgrounds with hard to read text. 
    - Images without ALT text.
    - Images without height and width tags load slowly.
    - All images should always have a text version.
    - Keep images small
    - No under construction! 
    - Frames - just say no. Use CF and tables instead in most cases. 
    - Links with no description - tell your users what to expect when they click. 
    - All fluff, no content. Content and functionality are more important than appearance.
