Media Perfection LC

One of my New Year’s resolutions is to more faithfully keep a blog.  I currently work as a web site designer and developer.  I also teach website design and development at Bridgerland Applied Technology College.  Between these two activities I come across a lot of valuable websites, services and information.   I’ve also been telling my students for the past year that they need to each keep a blog.  So it’s time for me to set the example.  I’ll be posting class notes and resources covered in my classes as a specific resource for my students and anyone else who is interested.  I’ll also post links to helpful websites, services, programming techniques and other website related information I come across.  Welcome 2009.

Here is what we covered our first night:

• How to write CSS rules.
• Where to place CSS. Inline, Internal & External.
• CSS Zen Garden
• Assignment: Read CSS Basics at W3Schools.com

External Stylesheet:
<link href=”external.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” />

Inline CSS:
<p style=”color:blue; font-size:30px;”>This is inline css</p>
