The toughest Web user interface challenges

Abstract

THE CHALLENGE: DESIGNING FOR THE WEB User interfaces on the Web are different from typical interfaces. Rapidly changing technology, the Hyper-Text Markup Language (HTML), the related tools, and a lack of robust widgets can constrain a designer. Thus, many web user-interface design problems may not be easily solved. Clearly, current design solutions are less than optimal. In a workshop setting participants will spend most of their day active in developing solutions and designing actual prototypes to web interface challenges proposed by participants prior to the start of the workshop.
