Hello,
I've been lurking/reading in awe for the past few weeks, and have a very
basic question. I've been hesitant to ask, hoping to see someone else
ask it (or unintentionally answer it), so I wouldn't have to...
I'm still very new to web design, and only just learned how to do some
basic work with tables, when I learned about using CSS for layout
(!@#$%?!). I was vaguely familiar with using CSS for styles, and had
done some basic stuff with it, but nothing like what you guys are
discussing for fine-grained layout control...
It was the post referencing the Layout Gala site that prompted this
message, because I learn from working examples *much* faster (as I guess
most do), and now I have a starting point.
Anyway - where can I go to learn the entry level basics about CSS -
like, for example, the question prompting this email - the difference
between embedded CSS (is that the term?) - I mean, CSS that is
included/defined in the .html document itself, as opposed to external
CSS, where the .css files are external to the html document - and which
is more appropriate for which circumstances?
Thanks to everyone for being here - I'm sure I'll have a bunch of
questions over the next few months, but want to spend some time
familiarizing myself with the basics first, and would prefer some good
starter doc pointers from the brains here.
Obviously, one of the main benefits I'm hoping to achieve is to learn
web development right the first time, as opposed to learning a bunch of
bad habits that I later have to unlearn.
:)
Best regards,
Charles
