HTML - Tutorial/book Reconmendation.
Hi guys, I'm a University student in scotland who has avoided the HTML side of group projects for 2 years now so i feel it is time to catch up.
For 3rd year i need to learn some JSP so i feel i should learn the basics and a bit more of HTML. Enough for me to understand syntax of Javascript/JSP implementation. I was wondering if there was a book out there where i could learn HTML/CSS in like say in a time scale of a month. With like an hour or two working on it per day. I can give or take few hours/days. If theres a book in PDF format you can reconmend or some online tutorial please do. As i want to be fluent in the basics of HTML by like 30-40 days time. Much appreciated Thanks James Similar TutorialsHello! I would like to learn HTML for work and was wondering if anyone could recommend a DVD Tutorial Program (preferably) or a book for someone who knows nothing about HTML. Thank you! Jeff I've been trying to find a good book to learn HTML from the beginning, I can't learn from online tutorials because I like having a book infront of me. My only worry is that all books I find were made 5+ years ago and I fear that the language may have changed since then and that I'll be learning things that are invalid now. Are there any recent books or even books that have been made years ago but are still very valid now? What are your top 5 recommended books for beginners? Thanks a lot. What's the best book to learn web design please? I was leaning towards the Head First Web Design book but don't like most of the reviews on it even though I love the other Head First books, is this the best book on web design or is there any other[s] that's better? Hello, Could someone recommend a couple of books for me? I'm interested in upping my skills in html/xml/css/javascript etc but am unsure what to purchase. I have: Advanced knowledge of html Moderate knowledge of css Basic knowledge of javascript VERY Basic knowledge of Actionscript 3.0 I was looking into Lynda and Friends of Ed. Thoughts? Anyone know of an inexpensive and SEO friendly way to display book pages in an online html reader? I am developing a bookstore website where people can read the entire book online before buying, and the option of using an online flash-based PDF reader doesn't work for SEO. In the html format, the books would have to be displayed page by page so people couldn't steal and distribute the entire book easily. Is the only way to do this by programming every page or is there a program, script or compiler that is good for SEO and will do the job cheaply? There are many online libraries that have hundreds of thousands of pages readable online, so how do they do it cheaply? Thanks. Hey, this is my first post here in a while and I'm a little rusty on my HTML and CSS, so... I wanted to make a website showcasing a book I am writing. I want it to be interactive, with music playing on different pages and sounds that can plat when certain words are hovered over. I don't want to use flash and want to use minimal Javascript/PHP (none if possible) I won't mind using a service like Scribd, if it allows that kind of customization... I don't need anything fancy, like page turning animations, just the text to appear when the next page is clicked (though it would be nice to keep the user on the same page and the page turn just loads new text...) Is this possible? Are there resources you can point me to? Are there any services that already offer this? Thanks in advance! Hello guys, i was wondering if any of you knows of :Some sort of book with html tests.

(not HTML, I want to learn more about XHTML) Thanks Converting RSS to HTML involves translating RSS XML files from a specified link into HTML or Javascript code, so that the XML data can be rendered for display on a web browser. An expert programmer would be able to do this by developing functions in Javascript and AJAX or Asynchronus Javascript XML, PHP or ASP.NET. Alternatively, there is a wide selection of third-party software that can offer this solution. This article will describe how to install and convert RSS to HTML using a free PHP package from FeedForAll called RSS2HTML. # 1 Point your browser to the FeedForAll download website. The URL link is provided in the References section below. Next to the heading "RSS2HTML" right-click on the download button, and select "Save Target As...". Save rss2html.zip to your desktop. # 2 Create a directory C:\rss2html on your personal computer, and extract the following four files from rss2html.zip into C:\rss2html: FeedForAll_XMLParser.inc.php Rss2html.php rss2html-docs.txt sample-template.html # 3 Using FTP software, upload the four files to your Internet website in the root directory. # 4 If your website domain name is mysite.com, point your browser to the URL mysite.com/rss2html?buildURL. Note that "buildURL" is case-sensitive. # 5 Under "URL for the XML file:" enter the following URL for the Yahoo! Internet newsfeed: rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/internet. Under "URL for the template file:", enter the URL location of the sample-template.html file, for example, mysite.com/sample-template.html. In "Maximum items" enter 10, so that only the latest 10 entries are displayed. Then click "submit." # 6 Wait for the page to refresh, then click on the "test" link to make sure that the latest 10 items in the Yahoo! Internet newsfeed are displayed. Copy the URL location of the link and save it in a text editor. It would look something like http://www.mysite.com/rss2html.php?X...ml&MAXITEMS=10. # 7 Open C:\rss2html\sample-template.html using a text editor, and enter the following code between the </HEAD> and the <BODY> tags <table width=100% border=1 cellspacing=0> <tr> <td valign=top width=60%> Welcome to my web site </td> <td valign=top> # 8 Toward the bottom of the file, enter the following code between the </TABLE> and the </BODY> tags </td> </tr> </html> Then save C:\rss2html\sample-template.html and upload it to the root directory of your website, overwriting the earlier version. # 9 Create a blank text document in C:\rss2html called mypage.html, and enter the following code into mypage.html. Replace the long url address with the one saved in Step 6: <html> <head> <meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url= http://www.mysite.com/rss2html.php?XMLFILE=http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/internet&TEMPLATE=http://www.mysite.com/sample-template.html&MAXITEMS=10"> </head> <body> </body> </html> # 10 Upload C:\rss2html\mypage.html to the root directory of your website. Point your browser to mypage.html on your web site. It will redirect the browser to the long URL. The browser should now display the Yahoo! Internet newsfeed in a separate panel to the right. You can edit the HTML code in sample-template.html to add your own web content and alter the display, color and font settings according to your preference. Which site will be the best html tutorial?

Can anyone help me with a HTML tutorial? I need a little bit advanced tutorial. Thanks in advance. The tutorials on this site are geared toward the newcomer. However, the reference guide provides useful information that would be useful to anyone. http://www.halshtmlschool.com/ I've tried searching on google but I always come across a lot of sites where you have to pay for stuff. Ok, here's my thing... I'm not a professional web designer or anything. I only do websites for myself and friends if they need. I'm more old school with it, meaning I type out the HTML codes myself mostly. I learned about webdesigning back in like 1997 when I first got on the internet. So now i either make very basic websites in photoshop or I use templates. I see soo many nice websites being created now and i really want to learn alot of the advanced stuff that people are using to design their websites now, especialy these fan made websites for these singers and actors. Examples: http://www.amerieweb.com http://www.a-peet.org http://www.brittany-charm.org Anyway, do any of you know good tutorial sites? Do I need Dreamweaver and other programs to design like these sites? Thanks in advance. Hi Friends, Can anyone guide me that How to open html tutorial.pdf file ? Please help me ASAP. Regards, Tom Hello, I'm following this tutorial but I'm having some trouble grasping exactly how the mouse-position scrolling script works and can't make it work for my site. The only thing I want thats different from the original tutorial, is multiple lists in a row rather than a single horizontal list. Here is the page in question. So far, I can get it to work by changing the ul.sc_menu width attribute to something very high as in the tutorial, but it pushes all the other lists off-screen. how can I have all my lists close together with the scrolling functionality? Thank you so much for any help!!! |
