Course Synopsis

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for design, layout and development of Web pages has dramatically changed the way developers and designers build web sites. Creating Web standards-compliant (X)HTML for content and using CSS for design, layout and presentation requires today's developers to "think" CSS as they design and code websites.THINKBIG'S two-day CSS course is designed to introduce CSS concepts and teach website design using (X)HTML and CSS.

Who Should Attend:

Web professionals who are seeking to create a more accessible and flexible page design structure using Cascading Style Sheets.

Prerequisites:

We recommend working with the application tutorial before coming to the course. Students should be relatively well-versed in the basics of HTML and web coding as well as familiarity with web terminology. It is suggested that students have basic knowledge of (X)HTML tags.

What You Will Learn

how to make the switch from table-based Web page design to design and layout using CSS

Provide an overview of authoring websites using CSS

Introduce the major concepts required to code Web standards-compliant (X)HTML using CSS for presentation

Introduce the concepts, techniques, properties, and values of CSS

(Three phases for this 2 day course)

Phase 1:

Students will be introduced to:

Web Standards compliance

CSS and (X)HTML: Separating content from presentation

Creating pages using semantically correct (X)HTML code

The Box Model

CSS syntax

Phase 2:

   Students will do hands-on exercises designed to familiarize them with the
   properties and values of CSS. These exercises are meant to build on each
   other and demonstrate how the property/value design rules affect the
   appearance of the pages. These exercises will cover color, typography, the
   "layout/design" styles and finally, special techniques for customizing forms,
   link styles and lists.

Phase 3:

   Students will be given two or three (time permitting) (X)HTML pages with
   content coded. They will then take these pages and write stylesheets and
   apply styles to the (X)HTML to match a specific design/layout.

   Students will be able to work on their projects from within the Dreamweaver
   interface using the visual editor to author the stylesheets or you can work
   with a text editor, whichever you are comfortable with. You will be
   modifying stylesheets and (X)HTML documents, coding the styles and
   applying those styles to the (X)HTML pages.

Time

Class time is 8:30 a.m.- 3:30 p.m. Breaks are scheduled throughout the day and lunch is typically scheduled 12-1. Students provide their own lunch.
