Still reading CSS Mastery. Very rich. It's much smaller (thinner) than the Head First book on XHTML+CSS I read earlier this year (only 250 pages vs 650), yet reads more slowly, because it contains much food-for-thought (regarding styling techniques).On nearly...
Andy Budd's CSS Mastery Book Really That Good? Initial Impressions + Web 2.0tag:blogs.radified.com,2007://1.852007-12-05T18:33:44Z2011-01-08T05:53:45Z
Back in August, when I was researching the best book to learn CSS, I was suspicious of all the glowing comments at Amazon.com for CSS Mastery.I mean, they sounded too good to be true. I'm especially suspicious of reviewers who...
Continuing to Enhance Web Master Skill Set (XHTML, CSS, Dreamweaver)tag:blogs.radified.com,2007://1.772007-11-14T23:38:44Z2007-11-18T02:56:03Z
Learning lots about (X)HTML, CSS. & Dreamweaver. For example, I finished reading the Head First book (cover-to-cover, all 650 pages). Currently half-way thru the Lynda.com Essential training video for Dreamweaver CS3 (Creative Suite 3). Also reading the Missing Manual on Dreaweaver (~1,000 pages), which goes into more detail than the video. All great stuff.
Was surprised to read over at Coding Horror that the average programmer reads less than 1 (technical) book per year.
Exercise, Bizarre Dreams & Advanced Web Constructiontag:blogs.radified.com,2007://1.492007-08-11T17:46:14Z2007-08-15T06:40:09Z
Remarkable how much better I feel whenever I work-out. I even feel better about myself (psychologically).
Shirts fit more snugly (in chest & shoulders). Arms hang a bit heavier. Each step flows more easily, propelled by stronger legs ("wheels").
Mid-way Review of Head First XHTML/CSS Booktag:blogs.radified.com,2007://1.422007-07-26T07:19:28Z2007-07-27T01:08:27Z
Half-way thru new (650-page) Head First XHTML/CSS book. Completed first 7 chapters, which cover all things pertaining to HTML/XHTML (the *structure* of a web page, such as setting up » headings, paragraphs, images, links).
Chapter 8 (« 3-MB PDF), which I'm starting now, begins discussion of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), which is cooler than (X)HTML, cuz it deals with *presentation* (as separated from structure).
Upgrading Web Master Skills | New Technologies Presenting Challengestag:blogs.radified.com,2007://1.332007-06-26T14:13:04Z2007-07-02T05:22:04Z
Been upgrading my web master skills recently, to include proficiency with HTML, XHTML, CSS & Dreamweaver. I'd also like to become familiar with JavaScript, PHP & SQL-based databases, such as MySQL.
Like most people, I learn best by doing .. by having a project to which I can apply my new skills.
I'm finding these newfangled XHTML/CSS pages significantly more complicated to work with than the old (simple) HTML ones I used with the original Rad Ghost guide.
