Synopsis

Keep your HTML5 and CSS3 skills up to date by getting the latest edition of this book. Check out Murach's HTML5 and CSS3, 4th Edition today!

Murach's HTML5 and CSS3, 3rd Edition begins with an 8-chapter hands-on course that teaches you HTML5 and CSS3 from scratch, showing you how you can't use one without the other nowadays. This quick-start course ends with a chapter that teaches you how to use Responsive Web Design (RWD) so your pages will look good and work right on any screen, from phone to tablet to desktop and beyond. In fact, you will learn more about RWD in this one chapter than you can in many full books on the subject!

After that, you can go on to any other chapter in the book to learn new skills whenever you need them. For example, you can learn how to enhance a site with audio and video clips, forms with HTML5 data validation, or CSS3 transitions and animations. You can see how to use JavaScript and jQuery to add features like accordions, tabs, and slide shows to a page, or to create a mobile site when a responsive site is impractical. You can learn the principles of web design, as well as how to deploy your finished sites. And no matter what, you can use the book as a time-saving reference whenever you have a question about HTML and CSS.

His development and teaching skills have come together in the technical books he's written in the past 15 years.

He's a busy guy!

Review:

Until now, my websites looked great but have been coded with what seems like 'duct-tape and bubble-gum' methods, just for appearances and not for professionalism nor compliance. This book taught me all [that is] possible with simple HTML5 and CSS3 coding... What a game changer! --Amazon reviewer
