About this ebook
In Upgrade Your HTML IV, HTML and CSS optimizer Jens Oliver Meiert takes 10 more examples of HTML from actual websites in order to analyze, explain, and improve the respective markup.
Apart from discussing the appropriate use and the subtleties of HTML elements, this edition covers general topics like conformance, maintainability, and the balancing of optimization vectors. It also covers topics like attribute minimization, void elements, metadata, table buttons and button links, and even CSS art.
“Optimizing and minimizing HTML and checking if there are more appropriate elements or attributes to use is a helpful exercise, because it can improve accessibility while you learn about new features.”—Simon Pieters
→ This is the book if you enjoy the intricacies of working with HTML.

About the author
Jens Oliver Meiert is a German engineering leader and author who lives in Galicia, Spain. He’s the architect of various large-scale websites (e.g., for GMX/United Internet, Aperto/IBM iX, and Google), a contributor to web standards (like HTML, CSS, WCAG), and a reviewer and writer for technical publishers (O’Reilly, Frontend Dogma). Jens works with the tension between aspiration and curiosity, between mastering things but also just trying them—which is why he writes about topics other than web development, and also publishes independently.
