Blogging

Been Working on My Home Page Design

I have spent a great deal of time getting an acceptable Home page designed and functional. It is kind of crude at the moment, but this is the first time I have been able to work with XHTML and CSS on a web server rather than my desktop. Nonetheless, I built the html & css from scratch (based on some example files provided by Head First Labs), and the result is OK for now. I will be making many mods in the future, now that I am armed and dangerous :-). I found the Head First book below to be an excellent beginners book for XHTML and CSS. It is best used to look up an explanation of some sort of function, and the examples and sample code from their web site were very helpful. It isn’t a quick reference though. I use the Wrox book as a quick reference for syntax and samples.

I also built some rather basic navigation to get back and forth from the blog to the home page - see the page links in upper left of the sidebar.

Feel free to comment and provide feedback.

Have a great weekend!
