Determining CSS-compliance

Back to NewCo Rebranding

Use this page to establish if your web site or application is considered Brand-compliant (also known as CSS-, Standards-, or Presentation Code-compliant).

You can check compliance visually or by evaluating the code.

Visual

Generally speaking, you can determine compliance by the visual layout of the page.

YES - compliant

Chances are your site is compliant if it looks something like one of the below pages, or follows its visual grid.

Examples: Sprint PCS Shopping, Sprint Business, Sprint site map, Sprint Wholesale, Sprint PCS What's New, Sprint PCS Text Messaging

NOTE: This listing merely shows examples, and is not meant to be an exhaustive list of all visually-compliant Sprint sites.

NO - not considered compliant

The following are examples of pages not using current Brand-compliant CSS.

Examples: Sprint Local, About Sprint, Rates and Conditions, Sprint Long Distance

''CSS-compliant''
