HTML Essentials Course
Upcoming Classes | Course Outline
Course Description
All web pages are produced with some form of HTML, which lets you format type, add graphics, sound etc. and save it in a format that any computer can read.
Having an understanding of (X)HTML & CSS is greatly advantageous before leaping into Dreamweaver or any other web authoring program.
The 1 day HTML course is ideal as a precursor to the 2 day Dreamweaver CS3 course. Following is a course breakdown.

What you will learn
When you use WYSIWYG programs such as Dreamweaver, Frontpage etc, these programs automatically generate your XHTML for you in most instances. If you want to get up to speed quickly when learning any of the above programs, then having a solid understanding of XHTML will enable that. Another significant reason to learn XHTML is for troubleshooting purposes. Some times in these WYSIWYG programs, it is necessary to work with the HTML code directly to fix your problems and to create better, ‘cleaner’ sites. See the course outline below for more details.
