good on you, Keith, your learning style and communication is inspirational<br><br>Great diagram on page 2 explaining the div structure<br><br>Fascinating how you went about selecting the colours<br><br>Impressed that you checked against so many different browsers
<br><br>I use HTML-Kit too but have found that it doesn't render correctly in it's Preview screen, I need to edit in HTML-Kit but load in the browser - I still like the editing capabilities for both XHTML and CSS provided by HTML-Kit but their poor Preview is an annoyance
<br><br><a href="http://www.ilovejackdaniels.com/cheat-sheets/css-cheat-sheet">http://www.ilovejackdaniels.com/cheat-sheets/css-cheat-sheet</a><br>is a very useful css cheat sheet<br><br>I think css is both artistic and also would get students engaged in some of the fiddly things required for programming - as well as being the modern and "correct" way of doing web pages - disability access and all that - thanks for getting me interested in it again - I hope others follow your example and give it a go - as you say, you do have to do it to get it
<br><br>I've done some further css upgrades on my intro page here but it still needs more work<br><a href="http://users.tpg.com.au/billkerr/">http://users.tpg.com.au/billkerr/</a><br><br>-- <br>Bill Kerr<br><a href="http://billkerr.blogspot.com/">

Hi all.<br>I have published a five page story of the making of the 3in6-2006<br>website based on css and html.<br>It can be downloaded from:<br><a href="http://3in6.openlab.net.au/resources/2006/W01-Developing-a-CSS-and-HTML-Based-Website.doc">
http://3in6.openlab.net.au/resources/2006/W01-Developing-a-CSS-and-HTML-Based-Website.doc</a><br><br>Why write it?<br>It took me three years to pluck up enough courage to break new ground<br>(new to me that is) and try to use css.
<br>Two teachers finally gave me the push - Brett Davies who has created<br>some wonderful css sites in Victoria was most encouraging and a fund of<br>excellent practical advice, and Des Hardy who presented an outstanding
<br>session at the 2005 VITTA Conference called "Web Standards".<br>After Brett and Des I felt that my excuses were groundless, but still I<br>had to actually do it. Perhaps this short story will give others the
<br>inspiration to try css for themselves too. That is why I have written<br>and published it.<br><br>All the best for an exciting and satisfying 2006.<br><br>Regards, Keith<br>Keith Richardson<br>IPM List Moderator<br>Head of ICT, Leibler Yavneh College
