Web, HTML, & CSS Workshop

Although there are many web development programs available today that require very little (if any) knowledge of HTML coding (including FrontPage and Dreamweaver), most web developers will find it much easier to work with those programs if they have at least some background experience with HTML, such as this workshop provides.

The workshop starts with web fundamentals, beginning with the basics of web and Internet structure and organization, and how web browsers and web servers interact. Most of our time, however, will be spent creating and modifying "web pages" with the HTML you'll learn, including formatting text (headings, lists, etc.), and creating links of several types: internal (to other pages in your web site); external (to other web sites); and even "bookmark" links (to specific places on a web page).  You'll also add images to your web page (which could be from a digital camera or elsewhere), wrap text around those images, and even make images into links, linking to either other pages, or to larger versions of the same image.

Finally, we'll introduce the concept of "Cascading Style Sheets" (CSS), and see why it's the preferred technique for giving web pages a standard appearance, and in helping address accessibility issues.  You'll use CSS rules to control the format and appearance of your web pages, including text, page, and link colors; fonts; page backgrounds; and even links that change appearance when the mouse moves over them.
