Tutorials
I will say staight-off that I am a tyro in the web designing game, and I am stuck with a relatively limited knowledge of all the techniques and languages that COULD be used to achieve a particular objective. So in the tutorials presented here, I will be quite parochial in my outlook.
I will try to explain some of the things that were incomprehensible until I took the time to study the available material, and translate it into simpler words. One thing I learned in my teaching career is that you never REALLY learn something well until you can explain it to somebody else. I guess that's one of the reasons for sharing what I have learned -- it helps to cement the ideas in my own brain.
If any of you out there have information of which I am unaware, have a constructive criticism of these tutorials, or suggestions for future tutorials, PLEASE let me know via the Contact Page. If I decide to use your ideas, I will certainly give you credit for your insight.
In the design of websites for my clients, I use HTML, CSS, Javascript, Perl and recently PHP. I try to make sure that my web pages look good in the two major browsers: Internet Explorer and Firefox. I am not too concerned about optimizing my code for other less-popular browsers, since my time is limited and my major goal is to design a website that looks good to the majority of viewers. I feel that anyone who is using a browser other than the top ones is probably used to seeing some things differently anyway.
( In particular, Safari seems to have no interest in web designers who don't own an Apple. I have found it impossible to debug one of my clients' websites in that browser, since I don't have an Apple with which to view it. And after repeated attempts to contact Apple about the problem, I have given up trying to fix the "problem". Life is too short to worry overlong about two viewers / month! )
