About

That Standards Guy is the online persona of Karl Dawson, a web developer living and working in Ipswich, England.

I'm a member of the Guild of Accessible Web Designers and the Web Standards Group and team member at Accessites—an awards site to recognise accessible and usable websites.

I specialise as a front-end developer and worry about the minutae of semantic (X)HTML and CSS, accessibility, microformats, typographic rhythm and grid design. I also care about the user experience and remind myself constantly of visitor site goals when working with clients and their aims.

That Standards Guy is proudly powered by WordPress using my own “StrictlyTSG v3.0” theme. Site Policies.

Site Info

Privacy

Nobody likes spammers, not even their mothers. Rest assured that the information this website holds about you - your Internet Protocol (IP) address, email address and anything else you may share with me when you contact me or post a comment stay right there - in the system. It would probably take me a while to dig it out afterwards because everything is held in a secure database. I will never sell or pass on that information to anyone.

Copyright

The weblog is powered by WordPress using my own theme for the look and feel. You can see these claims at the bottom of every page. My articles are also subject to copyright as they take an age to research and write. Please either link directly to anything I write or contact me for an offline copy. I’m very unlikely to say “no” so give me some feel-good factor if you find anything particularly useful for your projects.
