Where possible, externally linked resources (images, CSS, downloads) have been minimised
DEECD Requirement
DEECD Guideline
Each resource on a page, including each stylesheet and each image, requires a separate trip to the server to download. This adds to the time to view the page and the cost of the transmission and reduces the user experience.
Requirement
Where possible, externally linked resources (images, CSS, downloads) have been minimised
Recommendation
Review the number of images on a page to ensure they all contribute to providing required and valuable informaton to the user. Place all style information into a single stylesheet.
Checking Tool
Review the source code of the page for occurrences of more than one stylesheet and preview the page in a browser to check of the usefulness of the images displayed.
