Class 4 - Resources

Here is a Presentation on CSS

Basic Style Demonstration files:

CSS in Blogs?

Here is a normal large Heading:

Here it is with style!

The normal Code:
<div align="center"><em><strong><span >Here is a normal large Heading:</span></strong></em></div>

The Styled Code:
<div style = "border:thick black solid; background-color:silver;text-align:center;padding: 10px; font-size:280%;"><em><strong>Here it is with style!</strong></em></div>

The Main problem is that each time you view the preview or post, blogger changes the code to "their"standard. It looks the same but may be more complicated.

Thanks to Ben Suter for the character converter. Check out his other tools.

Class 3 - Materials

A few quick shots:

To change the background image for a whole document:

To change the font for a whole document put this line after the body tag:

A font-family is a prioritized list of font family names and/or generic family names . The browser will use the first value it recognizes so be sure to include enough description.
There are two types of font-family values:
family-name: The name of a font-family, like "times", "courier", "arial"
generic-family: The name of a generic-family, like "serif", "sans-serif", "cursive", "fantasy", "monospace".
Always offer a generic-family name as the last alternative.
Note: If a family-name contains white-space, it should be single-quoted.
<div style="FONT-family: ‘Comic Sans MS’,cursive; font-size:18pt;color:white;">
The line above will display Comic Sans or another cursive font if it is not available

To set the color and behavior of links in HTML

EXAMPLE:

In the head of your page put code like this to get white links, no underline and a change when the mouse is over them. When visited the link will turn red and when hovering the link will turn green. It will turn white after you click before the new page loads.

<Head>

a:link {color:White;text-decoration:none;}

a:visited {color:red;text-decoration:none;}

a:hover {color: green;text-decoration:none;}

a:active {color:white;text-decoration:none;}

</style>

So Why The Same Graphic Twice?

Yesterday I posted an image that was made with ButtonShop3. When I got to class last night it didn't show up. Why? I'm not sure. The computers in the classroom were Macs. The format of the graphic in yesterday's post was png, i.e. portable network graphic. This one is a simple jpg.

Can you see the difference? The jpg is 4 kb and the png is 24 kb, is the png file six times better. I won't use png's any more.

Assignment 3:

Using FireFtp with FireFox

Glossary of Terms (PowerPoint, not used in class)

Lots of web resources specifically for this course: http://faculty.stritch.edu/jmsklar/533

We will be doing ftp, file transfer protoco, during this course. You will need an ftp client for your computer. If you don't already use one, i.e you are not a complete geek, I have created a portable ftp client setup for you. You can download it now and install it to your USB or Pen drive or wait and do it in class. A pen drive will be useful.

Go to this link: http://faculty.stritch.edu/ced/533/FZ/

IMPORTANT: Right click on the installfilezilla.txt file and select save Target As...

Change the filename to installfilezilla.exe (be sure you know where it is saved!)

All you need to do is double-click on this file and follow the directions.

So why do we need to do this filename dance? Because the server won't let us download an executable file.
