Getting Started with XHTML and CSS

The first step in learning the fundamentals of web design is getting past acronyms like XHTML and CSS. In this user-friendly workshop, author and trainer Chad Chelius demystifies XHTML code, showing you the building blocks of a web page’s content, and explains the role that cascading style sheets (CSS) play in building web pages. You’ll learn how to gain complete control over the appearance of your web pages and how to work with links, graphics, and alt text. Finally, you’ll see how to upload your files to a server, add meta tags, and test your website, and you’ll even get a glimpse of the future of the web: HTML5 and CSS3.
