WEB LAYOUT AND DESIGN WITH CSS (WEEK TWO)

This class served to be very informative as well. We put into practice things learnt from the previous week. There was also a tutorial that gave in depth information as well in regards to how to effectively and efficiently use the elements. There was also a lot of interaction with several elements and as we practiced how to PROPERLY use them.

WEB PAGE LAYOUT & DESIGN WITH CSS (WEEK ONE)

On the first week of class, we were introduced (or reintroduced for some) to the terms HTML- Hyper text Mark-Up Language and CSS- Cascading Style Sheets. With only basic knowledge of the mentioned topics prior, the class proved to be very informative. HTML is used for structure whereas CSS is used for styling and layout. We were also introduced to elements such as Opening and Closing Tags-where there is an opening tag there must be a closing tag. HTML has a head and a body.

We also discussed attributes and values and how to differentiate between the two. An Attribute is followed by an equal sign (=) and the value is found between quotation marks (" "). Attributes and values are used for special commands such as assigning an id, changing the colour of text, highlighting a specific paragraph etc. On the first week of school we also learnt how to use such elements.
