Plugging content into a website is the most monotonous part of web design. Most of the time its apple-c from word, apple-v to html, Rinse Repeat. One secret weapon though is to use a converter for the text so that all the garbled up entities from word don’t slip into your html.
This HTML UTF-8 Entity Encoder is what we use to make sure that our text is clean when we drop it in the HTML.
Just paste your text in, convert, copy the clean text and paste that in your html doc. That simple.
What good is a website if users can’t get from page to page? Even worse, what if search engines can’t get from page to page? It’s useless, and that’s the last thing you want. Essentially, if you want your website to be usable by everyday people, then it needs to be navigable by computers, and here are a few steps to do just that.

When we talk about topics such about CSS, JavaScript, and sometimes even certain image formats (png24, I’m looking at you), and how they render in a client’s browser, we always, or should always also consider cross-browser behavior. This behavior entails many things: CSS rendering, the availability of CSS specific attributes, whether or not the DOM interface will be the same, general JavaScript behavior — the list goes on and on. And, since most discussions about CSS and JavaScript (at least the ones that I am having) also concern this variable nature, I’m coining (maybe I’m the first) a new term to put all of this into a handy little phrase, “Cross-Browser Consistency,” or, in typical programmer fashion, simply, “XBC.”
Let’s take a brief moment to establish a more exact meaning for this phrase. As you may well be aware, the industry commonly talks about cross-browser support, so we’ll differentiate between support and consistency, as well as defining what cross-browser really means, and some other tidbits as to boot.
