Web Standards and the Browser Upgrade Initiative

The Hodder Literature website has been designed to take advantage of the current best practices in Web Standards.

You may have been referred to this page because you are currently using a browser version that does not take advantage of the latest browser design and security features available. We suggest upgrading your browser if you have the ability to do so.

Upgrading your browser will give you a higher level of security in transactions and better protect your personal information. In addition, it will improve your web experience, enabling you to use and view sites as their creators intended.

How can I upgrade?

Downloading and installing a new browser is easy. You will be able to follow simple directions when you download the browser. Please follow the link below to the Browser Upgrade Initiative, which will give you information on the safest browsers to use (these browsers support the newest web standards including CSS and XHTML):

The Browser Upgrade Initiative

If you are on a slow dial-up modem and cannot download a new browser, many computer magazines come with a CD which usually includes the latest browsers.

Web Standards

Web Standards were created by the World Wide Web Consortium - a governing body of the people who invented the web itself.

The W3C created these standards so the web would work better for everyone. New browsers generally support these standards; older browsers generally don't.
