This site is from w3schools. It is detailed instructions and examples of how to change your fonts in CSS. Its important because it carefully explains how to change fonts in different parts of your body.

I'm always being asked to provide chart information for my business stories in the newspaper, but what if I could do it in CSS and make it pretty? That's what this programming tip provides, and it looks pretty cool, too.

I think CSS charts are one of my favorite thing :). I am sure, someday, they will be superseded by built-in charting tags, but for now, I love 'em.

Hi Dr. Halavais. How do I get a web host? I'm having trouble seeing if I have one.

I have a couple questions. They are highlighted within the sticky notes in the text regarding downloading problems also: When downloading Notepad++ do I need both the binary and the source files? When I attempted to download Jing I received the following error message: The NTVDM CPU has encountered illegal instruction. Can anyone tell me what this means and how to get around it?

Questions about web-view using TextWrangler

Ok I know what you are thinking...why is he bookmarking a flash reference site - flash in a web programming class? Well I decided it was important to bookmark the ActionScript reference page because the structure of ActionScript 3 is similar to javascript used in many webpages. No, you don't need javascript to create a webpage, but adding it can allow for additional site functionality. It is also important to know the potential of integrating flash into a website and allowing for variables to be passed form the webpage and communicated to the flash movie.

For anybody who has Celiac's Disease (or just wants to go gluten-free): Here is a recipe for GF pizza crust. It's a bit long, but it bakes and it should conform to the 1-f standards. Have fun.

Looks good. A couple of notes: bgcolor (in the body tag) should be all one word if you use it, though we'll be doing CSS which gives you more flexibility. Also, you make heavy use of br. BR has a specific place, and what you really should be doing is wrapping each of those paragraphs in p tags. That will make life much easier when it comes to validating your code.

This site is about how to make an HTML document. It provides information on tags and provides an example of a simple HTML document. It is useful because it is very simple and easy to understand.

This site is a lot "wordier" than others that I've seen...but what I personally like about it is the examples followed by a short description as to what it is I am looking at. I like that (and learn it easier)

Another great beginner's intro to the world of CSS mainly because it provides just as many examples as it does explanations. In addition, it encourages you to try out the code as you go along rather than simply expect to learn by osmosis (which is pretty much impossible with this subject anyway).

This links to the menu bar template I used in my Chicken Kiev restyle with CSS. I like it because it has a clean modern look that doesn't look "button heavy". There is a fair amount of code, but most of it is straightforward. I made comments in my CSS sheet to help me remember what was going on. For webprog-2-a.

I took my recipe html file and tried cleaning it up. After numerous attempts to fix my code myself, I clicked the "Clean up Markup with HTML Tidy" button. HTML Tidy basically truncated my table-specific CSS and aggregated it at the top. I suppose I'll learn how to do this myself when I begin on Module 2. Instead of changing the original file, I saved a new one to show to the code difference at http://marie.nfshost.com/recipe2.html

HTML Tidy is a lifesaver--as long as you look at the changes and can figure out why they have happened. (It also makes it prettier, if you use the "indents" feature.)

This is a good introduction that explains alot about the value of Javascript. It explains how it simplifies tasks that used to be server-intensive by placing some of the load on the user's local machine. It is more efficient, can be re-used and sends the server a simplified information set that is easily processed.

I created the map, but them started messing around and wanted to add the javascript aspect to it so it would have the hide/show. I tweeked my previous code so it would match up with this page and the body would appear on the click rather than the form in the previous bookmark.

This is web prog 5-g. It is about PHP basics. At first PHP can be confusing, but once you know what it is trying to do it isn't all that bad. It's just a getting the coding correct.

How do you close a PHP segment?

here's the 'home' for my 'rate my class' project. as of this posting, i've got the structure of the site all laid out, it just needs some cascadingly stylish touches. i didnt use any javascript on this yet either. i just wanted to get something posted in time for the class deadline. each class has its own php page, which pitches and catches to itself, and its own mysql table. the nav drop down links directly to each course. enjoy!

This is module 6-e. It was a little tricky to do, but what I found interesting was how there were a few ways to do it. You could connect to a database or you could do it through making individual files. This module is for Northeast sports. Enjoy!

webteacher.com has an excellent tutorial for learning JavaScript. It starts off saying that it is JavaScript for the non-Programmer and goes through step by step defining terms such as JavaScript, Object Oriented Programming (OOP), objects, methods, properties, events, functions, alerts, forms, buttons etc. It also has a great chapter on Loops (chapter 5). This site shows examples of code and slowly goes through step by step the structure and components of JavaScript.

This bookmark is a combination of 2-d and 2-f: it is my restyled recipe and horizontal menu for the CSS portion of the course. At first, I was a little hesitant / confused about learning the CSS formatting. Once I got used to the concept of the css formatting I found myself wiring code with ease. There was many back and forth between typing and viewing in the browser, but I got the hang of it. The one issue I had was with browser compatibility - the margin: auto; code did not render well in IE7, but had not bugs in firefox. The most difficult potion of the menu was hiding the attributes that the browser assumes should be included with a bulleted list and links hence why a css style sheet comes in handy.

Very nice. Should make it a habit to title your pages. But well done.

Is it a new trend now to have a little vertical "Feedback" tab on the left or right side of a web page? I've been noticing it all over in the past couple of weeks.

This adds the menu bar to the Recipe with CSS. I tried to include a comment in the code crediting the site where I found it.

Hadn't noticed it...
