Website Design and Content
This website was designed by Ben Grosser. The text content was written by various people, including Grosser and other members of Laurel Prussing's campaign team. All photographs are taken in the city of Urbana by Grosser, with the exception of the portraits of Laurel Prussing and Laurel with City Clerk Phyllis Clark taken by Dan Peterson. The photograph at right was taken by Grosser on top of the downtown parking deck, looking through the glass stairwell enclosure towards Jumers.

Web Standards and CSS/XHTML Validation
This website is designed in accordance with current web standards. The
code is validated XHTML 1.0 Transitional, and the CSS is validated by the W3C.
What this means is that it conforms to current standards and is therefore
likely to persist with a minimum of error and to view as expected in your
browser. Extreme care has been taken to ensure that this code indeed works
in all browsers. If you have any problems, please let me know.
Each page's footer provides links to W3C code validators, and you are welcome to run the code through them. I have also taken care to make the site accessible to everyone, with the use of alternate text links for all images, labels for form fields, etc, so that screen readers and other devices can access the information with a minimum of trouble.
Finally, I owe a tip of the hat to Jeffrey Zeldman and Dan Cederholm, the authors of Designing with Web Standards, and Web Standards Solutions, respectively. I also took some ideas from Stopdesign.com.
