This is a short little video comparing the difference between HTML and CSS to the difference of black/white or color photographs. The pictures are from a vacation to Sanibel Island, Florida and the West River in Guilford, CT.
This is a web hosting company I've used for the past six years or so. It used to be called Catalog.com. I give it a decent rating. The administrative control panel interface is easy. Hosting packages provide for MS SQL Server, wordpress installations, metrics, spam sharks, email, ecommerce, php and fairly speedy support help. One annoyance: Webhero is constantly changing its price structure every 6 months or so. Sometimes hosting is free, then it costs a little, then it is free again. Economic survival online is an art these days, (I work for a newspaper) so I can't blame them too much. I currently own three domain names, and all of them are registered with this company.
After an afternoon of attempting to figure out CSS, I think I've got a basic understanding. I think the (Oprah) aha! moment happened. I used the site/page I created in the first set of challenges to create this navigation bar. The bar also features a rollover.
Though the assignment was to publish a three-page site, I got a little carried away and added more. This is just a fun site dedicated to (some) U.S. Presidents' favorite foods. From the home page, you can link to Obama, Clinton, Bush 41, Reagan, and Kennedy -- and back home again. Bon Appetit!
Here is my updated recipe page; CSS version. This new one has a gray background for the main page and white to make the actual recipe stand out. The main title stands out against the other headers by color and size. All headers are in a sans-serif font while body text is a serif. Also, the links have a rollover feature and are a differnt color than the body text.
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!
