This page is just a basic intro/course description for an HTML class taught at UC Berkeley. It's really just a few sentences, but it's one of those short on words/long on meaning pieces of text that I admire because it gets to the meat of what HTML is all about in a very intelligent way. What struck me, though, was the line that states: "... it's valuable to know HTML even if your day job involves working with a content management system... " I work with a CMS all day! As I've mentioned before, I work for CNN.com and mainly produce interactive features and such, yet I know shockingly little about them there Internets! This course will hopefully help me bridge that gap between the material I am comfortable with, and that which intimidates me.

WordPress is one of the most popular blogging platforms available today. And a fair amount of people really like it. It's powerful enough to be a complete Content Management System, it has every feature/function a blogger could ever dream of (either built in or available via plugins or custom func

New and improved CSS version. Also found a menu bar template, fiddled with it a bit, and made comments as part of understanding how it works. Attempting to satisfy webprog-2-d and webprog-2-f.

Very nice! If you stick the code for the menu bar *inside* the "wrap" div, I have a feeling it will work out better. Right now, when you maximize on a big screen, the menu goes a bit wonky. (Don't need to fix for the purposes of this assignment, but just so you know.)

Thank you! I've been going a little nuts with a few things. :) The menu bar was easy to place in Firefox, but wouldn't position properly at all in IE. I managed to do some fudging, but don't like the result, as I later gave up margins:auto to pin things down. After all that, the two browser renditions still look a little different. Much to learn.

Some people collect coins or stamps. Imelda Marcos collected shoes. I collect domain names and have been registering different ones for over a decade. No, I'm not a squatter, but I did take KerryEdwards.org 18 months before there was a Kerry-Edwards ticket. They didn't offer to buy it. But I did sell TheFrequency.com to some guy for $15K; he hasn't done anything with it. I've used Network Solutions, Register.com, GoDaddy and Yahoo! Domains. If I'm maintaining a site myself, I usually stick to Yahoo! because it's dumbed down and easy to use. I have a Web Hosting Starter account there for my personal site www.ahoving.com. It takes a few extra clicks to get where I need to go to manage the files, but I haven't had too much trouble with it. You can upload files directly (no other FTP client needed). And there's none of that DNS stuff I sometimes run into that totally confuses me.
