What is the standard way of developing website.

see anurag... there are lot of standards available in developing the websites.. the adoption of standards will vary according the type and teh purpose of website that you are going create. if the site is going to be blog kind of stuff,, there is no much special standards.. you can go for CMS. when you use CMS, automatically you are adopted to some standards. if the site is going to be to portal, first you have to identify what kind of site is, who is the client, who is visiting, who is going to be targeted, what it is going to address, what is type of content it will contain, etc., etc., that brings you the some standards when you are clear & plan in the above said. if the site is for shopping, then it has some standards that needs to be followed.. you can browse the ecommerce website like amazon, it has some standards. if you asking for coding standards. try to make a template of website and bring the contents from DB... so that you can reuse the templates for multiple sites. use some editors, it will beautify your code. get some open source scripts, find the standards they have used. and try to follow the one which you can do. happy developing!!!
