About

That Standards Guy is the online persona of Karl Dawson, a web developer living and working in Ipswich, England.

I'm a member of the Guild of Accessible Web Designers and the Web Standards Group and team member at Accessites—an awards site to recognise accessible and usable websites.

I specialise as a front-end developer and worry about the minutae of semantic (X)HTML and CSS, accessibility, microformats, typographic rhythm and grid design. I also care about the user experience and remind myself constantly of visitor site goals when working with clients and their aims.

That Standards Guy is proudly powered by WordPress using my own “StrictlyTSG v3.0” theme. Site Policies.

Using Dust-Me Selectors Plugin to find unused CSS selectors

Klaus Komenda as a good write up about using the Dust-Me Selectors Plugin. This is a Firefox plugin that scours your CSS files to find unused selectors so that you can shave some more bytes off the file size (as well as help maintainability). Version 2.0 of the plugin, written by SitePoint, now has a spider to do the crawling for you so combined with a sitemap.xml file this should be relatively tedium-free.
