Web Design and Usability Resources

I am reviewing the proposed web-site structure and navigation. There are a few items I am concerned about, including:

• Use of popup windows and dialog boxes


• Support for outdated browsers (IE 5.0 and Netscape 4.74)


• HitBox script is embedded in every page

Here are a few resources on this subject:

• Research-Based Web Design & Usability Guidelines
• All Things Web
• Jeffrey Zeldman: Designing with Web Standards
