In case my quiz went over *that* badly, here is a zodiac sign-teller for back-up points. Thank goodness for online resources and programming books. Well, enjoy!

For anyone who attempts the guestbook challenges, this tutorial looks like it will offer some solid guidance. Thank goodness for those kind-hearted programmers who do what they can to help the simpletons. :)

CSS resources and tutorials for web designers and web developers. When creating my horizontal nav bar for challenge 2-f, I found the "Listamatic" sections of this site to be useful.

This site answers your most basic and simple beginner questions such as, "What Does HTML stand for"? If you have no experience building web pages this site will be a helpful start.

This column offers a helpful "cheat" for programmers seeking to have a vertical background color extend all the way down the page. A quirk in CSS sometimes results in making it difficult for columns to extend the full length. The solution is to create a vertically tiled background image that "forces" vertical columns to extend all the way.

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.

Review of Yahoo! Web Hosting

Throughout this course, I seem to always visit this page for different topics. I find it to be written in everyday language, even when explaining Javascript. I've looked over the site, and it "works" for me to help understand the language.

I came across this site, from the same provide that I found some good stuff for HTML. This is a great tutorial set up to help beginners like myself get a better idea for 'STYLE'

Hi, everyone. This is the very first page I have ever created: my introduction.

Ooops, didn't know we could do HTML in these things. What I said is that for future challenges you should replace >br< with >br /< .

Third time's the charm: for future challenges you should replace <br> with <br />

Here is a 4 page site I made for upcoming Connecticut concerts for the month of February. I included a splash page that includes links to Toad's Place, Mohegan Sun, and The Webster. On each of the 3 venue pages, I included links to the venues' official website as well. Then, I included text about upcoming concerts. I purposely didn't link back to the splash page, thinking that once the user is into the venue sites, it wasn't necessary to return there.

I have found myself over the years Googling part of a HTML code to make sureI get it written correctly. Most of the time I will type in something like " just as a starting point. I think this site will help elimiate the need for many different sites. This looks to be a one stop shop for any common, and even some obscure HML coding.

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.

This is a great website for accessing video tutorials for just about any aspect of web design. The video screencasts are great quality and easy to follow along. #47 is a CSS Shorthand video that most people in the class will find helpful.

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.

Getting columnated is a little tricky for beginners like myself. In lecture 2-3: Columnated, I added a comment with a link to a site that lays out the fundamentals of the language used. I think this would be especially helpful to someone who aspires to be a web producer because a producer needs to speak in html and css language. The link is http://css.maxdesign.com.au/floatutorial/definitions.htm

There is a comment and link on the third video, second module for challenge 2-b. It may be found at 1:24. Thanks.

Made a few comments regarding photoshop and other aspects to the 2-column layout. Long lecture, but helpful in understanding the layout neccessities.

This is a tasty almond twist to the traditional 7-up cake. It is a perfect party dessert. Hint - For those of you who don't like almond you can substitute a different flavor of extract for the taste you prefer. Enjoy!

This site simplified my webpage and asked me to take out certain tags. After doing so, the page was still readable however, XHTML approved.

I have published a page that is up to XHTML standard. I used my recipe for peach daquiris for this validator service. I had nine errors when I first typed it in and after following the directions I was told that my document was successfully checked as XHTML 1.0 transitional.

At first, I was messing this up, but I think I caught on by the end. I think its is very much like Diigo, but for videos. Very easy to use once I realized that what I was doing was incorrect and not what the site was giving me back as wrong.At first, I was messing this up, but I think I caught on by the end.
