            Challenges And Issues Facing The Organization
Practitioners in the web design profession face certain challenges that are related to
the nature of the job, but also to the evolving technology surrounding web page
development. Writers in the technology field express different views about the factors
that challenge web designers in their profession. There are four factors that make it
difficult for web designer to create web applications:


1) Abundance of technologies and standards

2) Inadequate technologies and integration between technologies
3) Inconsistent implementation of standards

4) Differences in end user platforms


Organizations face similar difficulties related to web design introduction and adoption
as they are also faced with challenges that are related to the technology itself. There
are three groups of factors to adopting web technology in the organization:


1) Technology related

2) Project related

3) Application related




                                          53

The challenges that web designers face and the roadblocks that impede the
introduction of web technology in organizations are usually cascaded into the
curriculum of web design also. A difficulty that web designers face in the adoption of
new technology because of the changes of standards in the technology. The difficulty
in selecting a new software tool requires not only learning the new features of the
program, but also overcoming the associated difficulties with adopting the new
technology. Difficulties such as incompatibility issues must be addressed when
upgrading from one version to another or when choosing one application versus
another.

Web designers know that the industry involves plenty of change, and continuous
adaption and development of skills is required in order to stay up to date. In the past
few years, one of the biggest areas of change has been the amount of Internet users
who are accessing websites via phones and mobile devices. As a result, Web
designers of the organization have to work in this area and ready to design 47
websites that accommodate this audience. Because designing websites for mobile
devices brings some unique situations and challenges into play, the subject requires
a strategic approach from the designer and developer.

The Issue of Standards
The slow pace of developing standards for web design and the effect it has on the
quality of web page development. The multiplicity of applications involved in a
particular web page may complicate the issue of standards further, but a brief history
on the development of standards in web design may shed some light for the “slow
pace” of development. Web pages are initially developed for informational purposes.
A web page is originally used for the purpose of displaying information. There is no
reason for separating the code and the format of the data; instead everything is saved
in one file. There are no uniform standards that are followed for the site. Instead one
page used certain formats and others used different formats depending on the designer
or the purpose of the page.                         54

Differences in End User Platforms

“End user platforms” may mean different things to different people. It may reference
hardware, software, communication media or other platforms. End user platforms may
also represent different versions of software and associated plug-ins.

End User platform includes any of the following:

- Browsers and versions of browsers

- Platform plug-ins

- Screen sizes and resolution

- Network platform

- Client configuration
The magnitude of browser issues and their effect on web design profession may be
understood by looking at the number of browsers that can be used to display web
pages. Simply put, there are too many browsers that can be used to display web pages.
Furthermore, the variety in the display among these browsers is significant.
