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.

Juicy Studio: Form Help without Popups

Gez Lemon over at Juicy Studios provides a very neat JavaScript that will show help tips next to a form element on request from the user without resorting to a popup window. The help section is built using divs and the JavaScript then positions the div next to the corresponding form element when called (via a button, image or whatever). No JavaScript? Then the help section is displayed, in full, at the bottom of the page.
