Web Development Tutorials
Now that the blog has its new look, I will be moving onto some tutorials myself. I would like to cover CSS/jQuery/XHTML topics as it is what I do on a daily basis in my job. If you would like me to cover any specific subject that you are having problems with or just starting out, then drop me a line and I will see what I can come up with.
Please leave comments on any subjects you would like me to cover. If I haven’t done what anyone asks before, it will give me a good excuse to learn how and then do a tutorial on it :D
I hope to emulate Mike’s informative and awesome approach to video tutorials ;)
Thanks
John.

@impersonation The correct way to do CSS is basically to adhere to the guidelines given out by W3C (http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/) as much as possible. I find that as long as it validates then its ok.
I could maybe do some “Getting Started” tutorials if that would help people to get into Web Development.
As for IDE’s, I have started to use Espresso for Mac and also use Adobe Dreamweaver at work purely for syntax highlighting.
Are you using Mac or Windows?
Thanks
John

@John I’m using a Mac.
A couple of “Getting Started” tutorials would be great.
Thanx

@impersonation Cool, so what I am thinking is a series of tutorials based on creating a web page from a simple Photoshop design. How I go about setting out the CSS/XHTML etc. Maybe add some jQuery features along the way.
I will make a start on a simple design layout we can use.
Thanks
John

Hey John. Love the new blog look. Very clean and minimalistic. I’ve never caught on to the web development scene primarily because I find CSS so complex. Its not that its tough, its just one of those standards that has too many ways of doing one thing.
Can you suggest some places to start for basic CSS/XHTML/jQuery – the correct way (is there a correct way :p)??? Can you also suggest some complete IDEs?
