what am i copying sir?

I forwarded a copy of the class rules all the way up to the top, so that offenders may be rightfully punished.

I have forwarded the starting course material to your box. i dunno what is wrong with my web host.
My website is currently not available. I will sort that out later.
And by the way, the starting course material is my "Learn HTML 2009" ebook i wrote earlier in Jan.

Anybody interested should just send me a mail - see my profile for my email.

The next book is am likely to release is - a teach yourself javascript in 7 days - a crashcourse stuff -
continuation of the "learn html stuff", in fact a continuation.

And i will say this, that i got alot of thank you's for that learnhtml - which means it was easy to follow.
There are millions of books on the www on these topics, everyone just shares their own point of view
so what i am releasing is based on my own personal experience.

Then, i will continue with jquery, which is going to be used in my dhtml project - starting next week

So now, back to the class. . .we shall resume shortly.
Failure to do your assignment is flogging! and 1 week suspension from the class.

Thanks, sir

Mail seen

already studying

If you have any questions, just ask them. After this, we go to CSS then javascript. . .

I see that this class is for few privileged and power people, LOL

Increase font size:
<div style="font:40px verdana">Increase font size</div>

Some other examples are:
H1 { font-size: large }
P { font-size: 12pt }
LI { font-size: 90% }
STRONG { font-size: larger }


Adjust paragraph (i am not completely sure):
<p style="line-height:5mm">
Line 1<br>
Line 2<br>
Line 3<br>
</p>

<p style="line-height:15mm">
Line 1<br>
Line 2<br>
Line 3<br>
</p>

<p style="letter-spacing: 1px;">
Line 1<br>
Line 2<br>
Line 3<br>
</p>

<p style="letter-spacing: 6px;">
Line 1<br>
Line 2<br>
Line 3<br>
</p>



Font case:

font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 10px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 1px;


<div style="text-transform: uppercase">dHtMl</div>
<div style="text-transform: lowercase">dHtMl</div>


@bandely, welcome to the class - i have sent the course materials
@phemour, i also sent some other materials.

The HTMLRef contains css stuffs too like text-transform. . .

@nitation, welcome.

@other students, you are welcome to join. Just request for course materials to start - that is free!

Phemour, i am awaiting your next question - since you started the thread

dhtml take

How do I break colour (add more colour different from background colour)?

fx

*dhtml:

Increase font size:   
<div style="font:40px verdana">Increase font size</div>

Some other examples are:
H1     { font-size: large }
P      { font-size: 12pt }
LI     { font-size: 90% }
STRONG { font-size: larger }


Adjust paragraph (i am not completely sure):   
<p style="line-height:5mm">
Line 1<br>
Line 2<br>
Line 3<br>
</p>

<p style="line-height:15mm">
Line 1<br>
Line 2<br>
Line 3<br>
</p>

<p style="letter-spacing: 1px;">
Line 1<br>
Line 2<br>
Line 3<br>
</p>

<p style="letter-spacing: 6px;">
Line 1<br>
Line 2<br>
Line 3<br>
</p>



Font case:

font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 10px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 1px;


<div style="text-transform: uppercase">dHtMl</div>
<div style="text-transform: lowercase">dHtMl</div>

Thanks, I got the materials.
Already started learning.

You've not buy form from class monitor (Phemour)

You'll be sent out if you do not so

Fx

P { font-size: 12pt }

Always refrain from using "pt" for font size as this is suitable for print media (books, etc). Use "px", "em" or "%".

Sir am i late for the class?

lol, my daddy said he has no money!
He said he will give me the money when the month ends!
Can I be in Class till then?

I will resend the course materials later tonight. Somehow they are having problems opening on some PCs especially vista.
Meanwhile i am about to revamp my site, should be complete by next month, i will convert all course materials to HTML ebooks.

Meanwhile, the other webmaster teachers: yawatide, webdezzi, qadrillo and others, please you are welcome to contribute
and other students should try to subscribe as well.

Meanwhile, any question in the regular dHtml langs are welcome: (x)html, css, jscript, php, mysql, xml ::: jquery. . .
Just try not to distract the thread

I found something on the Internet while searching call, xhtml. According to the source xhtml is similar to HTML 4.1 and it says the HTML 4.1 is the latest/future version.

Can you enlighten us more about these stuffs?

HTML 4.1 is old news. XHTML is the future. It's code structure ensures that pages (in theory) will be displayed similarly across all browsers. Unlike HTML where you could get away without closing tags, for instance, XHTML isn't as forgiving.

If you are new to the game and are wondering where to start, go straight to XHTML.

I hope this helps. Good luck!

Thanks, I appreciate the response.

Thanks yawa for the response.

@bandely, you will notice that i said x(html) above, it means either html/xhtml - sometimes people write it like that.
I will sort out those materials shortly. . .i am working on some updates for my site

@OP, for breaking colors:

<body bgcolor="blue"> or <body style="background:blue">

then, you can change invididual colors of elements with something like:

<div style="background:red">
Red background
</div>

<div style="background:red">
Red background
</div>

for colors: just use
<div style="color:blue">Blue</div> of <font color="blue">Blue</font>

You can combine like this:
<div style="background:blue;color:red">
Red text on blue background = oshi
</div>

Next - that background can also be re-written properly as background-color ie style="background-color:red"

I would go a step further, for the purposes of readability and maintenance to rewrite the above like so:

<style>
#textBgColor { color: #f00; background-color: #00f; }
</style>

<div id="textBgColor">Hello World</div>

1) FONT tag is deprecated in XHTML

2) Always use the hex codes for colors and not the words, in case you meet some browser out there that doesn't interpret the words.

3) My way might seem "complex" but tis best, from personal experience, to delve into the deep end of the pool at once, as opposed to skirting around the fringes. Tis best to know the proper standards up-front than to memorize the bad ways and then re-orient yourself to the good.

Good luck!

Okay, I get you.

Thanks again yawa, and by the way, students, you can download kolorgenerate, i am not sure of where
it is on the web, you can point to any object on your pc, and it will give you the hex color codes.
My connection is slow at the moment, so i cannot locate the link online, but if you cant find it, i can send
it to you later if you request through mail

no problem, dhtml.

Alternatively, if you use firefox, you can get the colorzilla add-on:
