This book will teach you how to build hand-crafted web pages the Web Standardistas way: using well-structured XHTML for content and CSS for presentation.
By embracing a web standards approach, you will hold the key to creating web sites that not only look great in all modern browsers, but also are accessible to a wide variety of audiences across a range of platforms―from those browsing on everyday computers, to those accessing the Web on the latest emerging mobile devices.
Even if you're an absolute beginner in web design, this book will teach you how to build future-proof web pages the right way using easy-to-master tools which are, in most cases, free. Through 14 easy-to-follow chapters, we introduce you to the fundamentals of contemporary web design practice. Step by step we'll assemble well-structured XHTML webpages, which we'll then style using handcrafted CSS.
By the end of the book, you'll have a firm knowledge of the essentials of web design: everything you need to know to move forward in your lifelong journey as a Web Standardista.
To equip you on this noble quest, we've included enjoyable practical assignments at the end of each chapter. Embracing these challenges will not only teach you how to create great looking web sites that are the envy of your peers, but also equip you with an unrivaled knowledge of monkeys that journeyed to space and apes that starred in the movies―the real stars of this book.
On completion of this book not only will you be able to create well-crafted web sites, but you will have earned the badge of a Web Standardista, proving your worth as a good citizen of the Web.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Why did we choose to write this book? We re both extremely busy lecturing bachelor s degree and master s degree interactive design students, maintaining our own practice wo- ing for clients, and furthering our established careers as artists exhibiting internationally so the idea of a how to book for would-be web designers wasn t arrived at lightly. That said, we felt the time was right for this sort of book. There are a lot of excellent books that we point our students toward: Dan Cederholm s inspiring Web Standards Solutions; Paul Haine s meticulous HTML Mastery; and Andy Budd, Cameron Moll, and Simon Collison s indispensable CS Mastery, to name but a few. All are fantastic books and we urge our s- dents to buy every one; however, none of them seemed to cover everything our students needed to embark on a well-grounded, web standards based approach in one package: namely, a solid foundation in well-structured XHTML coupled with a comprehensive int- duction to CS. Cue Web Standardistas. Seller Inventory # CIN1430216069G
