DieselNet Business Pages

Size of the page

The standard page size is up to one letter format page, as determined when the page is printed. You can post more material at an additional fee for the extra pages.

The page can contain your logo and other graphics. Please keep the combined size of the page files (html + graphics) below 100 kB. Large pages load slowly, discouraging visitors from viewing them and defying their purpose.

Page format

The format is XHTML 1.0. To ensure clean, error-free code, your page must validate using the W3C consortium page validator, http://validator.w3.org/. Pages should be validated as XHTML 1.0, either Transitional or Strict.

The page should be easy to read, without the need to scroll horizontally, in the 1024×768 screen resolution.

Graphics can be included as .gif, .jpeg, or .png files. It is a good programming practice to optimize graphics files for size. For example, there is no need to use 256 color palette .gif if the image has only 16 colors.

You may use animated gif, but please do not use Flash, Java, scripts, or other embedded objects.

We encourage the use of cascading style sheets (CSS) for the formatting of your page. Please use the W3C CSS validation service at http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ to ensure correct CSS syntax.

Standard components

The page should include contact information - company name, mailing address, phone, email, etc., placed either at the left margin of the page, or at the bottom. You may provide that information with the page or, if you don't, we will add it to your page.

We will also add a standard reply form and a link to DieselNet.
