There are also a number of validation tools available to help you check the syntax of the documents you have created. See the Resource Guide below for links to some useful pages. The same document will appear differently when viewed on each type of platform.

Retain high levels of screen design for the home page and for other key screens which present a project image. Structure new documents in small chunks and rework existing text documents on this basis. Give all documents meaningful titles. For maximum compatability between PC and UNIX systems, limit file and directory names to 8 characters, with up to 3 characters for filename extensions. By default, .htm for PCs and .html for UNIX systems are used as the filename extensions for HTML documents.
