The W3C QA Library

Informal discussions, short articles, shared techniques, opinions, findings: all these are now on the Q&A Weblog.

Please see the QA Toolbox for a similar list of tools hosted, maintained, or related to QA at W3C.

This is the (almost) authoritative list for documents, texts, and documentation published in the QA webspace at W3C.

Among the documents below, those for which translations are welcome are explicitely marked as such with "[translation welcome]"; see also the W3C Policy regarding translations.

• Tutorials at W3C [TUTORIALS] : A list of tutorials about W3C technologies provided on the W3C website.

The following documents are for Web designers, Webmasters, or their managers, and address the quality of Web Sites and how to improve it.

• My Web site is standard! And yours? [WEB-QUALITY] : Easy, painless techniques and ideas to improve your Web site quality and make your Web site valid. [translation welcome]

• Ampersands, PHP Sessions and Valid HTML [PHP-SESSION] : Why using PHP sessions causes invalid HTML and XHTML to be generated by default, and how to fix it. [translation welcome]

Some of the articles written by the QA Team are published in other on-line publications to reach a wider audience.
