Online CSS Course - 6/10/2003 11:37:56   
Here is a link to a free online 5-day course on CSS. I haven' t taken it, so this is not a recommendation, but it looks to be interesting.

The virtual University have one also. I have not seen the content of it but their courses are generally extremely good:

http://vu.org/calendar.html

While there have a look at their new course - Tips and Tricks for Webmasters - which includes sections on how to install Perl and PHP scripts.

They are not free - but you could do both courses and another one for good measure for $15 - which is as near to free as it gets!

Dan,

Same thing here, I signed up for class 6/10 still only received 1st lesson that was promised . Not sure what deal is is them sending them.

However if you go here you can request LOST lessons.

Seems there should be better way to do this.

Erin & Dan:
I had signed up for this course over a month ago, and had no trouble recieving the courses, as well as their xhtml course. I recieved all lessons on the days that they stated that they would come. Last year I had even taken their html course. So I' m sure that most likely they are having some problems on their end because they are faitful with their mailings. :)

RE: Online CSS Course - 6/14/2003 20:38:42   
Just finished up the course.

Since I knew nothing about CSS (not anymore!) this was a great course for me. It went over the very basics, with examples. Each days worth of courses were fast reading (I actually did all five courses in a single sitting. And, I got two of the courses ahead of time, per my request) and easy to understand. I now feel comfortable with the general understanding and ability to read CSS.

Now I just have to write some myself and try it out.

Anyone know of a good site on CSS syntax, FAQs, tips and tricks or something like that. Any recommendations?

Thanks again Nancy!

About the " About" CSS Tutorial.
I just finished Lesson 4.
In Lesson three, two of her links did not work.
The first one got the " page could not be found" message.
The second on went to the wrong page.

In Lesson 4 she was explaining Absolute Positioning.
She gave no examples of code, so went to View Source.

quote:

<p>
Absolute positioning allows you to position an object precisely where you want
it to be. This gives you a huge amount of control over your Web site. Even if
the browser window is smaller than your page requires.
</p>

<p>
Scroll to the left to see my image, positioned 500 pixels from the left.
<div style=" position: relative; left: 500; top: 20;" >
<img
src=" http://a1028.g.akamai.net/6/1028/968/cdeaebfc020917/images.about.com/sites/guidepics/html.gif"
width=" 50" height=" 50" border=" 0" >
</div>
</p>


She used relative positioning.
Correct me if I' m wrong.

She also used a lot of Tables.
