Conquer Club

Does anyone know how to do HTML coding? I know how to do it... I just want to discuss HTML with other people who know how.

<BS>I'm quite good at it. I need a money order for $2500 before we talk though.</BS>

Ahaha...

<scam>What? I need to feed my kids man. I'm ready here for some legit Coding talk as soon as you fork over some cash.</scam>

I know how basically, but I need this first:

I'm working this side of the street Isaiah40.

That's okay, because I'm working THIS side of the street!!

but I faked. Er... offered to discuss HTML (not to be confused with binary) coding for money first.

You guys know nothing...

Fine if that's how you're going to be it's five large, or you can talk with Isaiah or the binary dummy.

HTML coding is sooooo boring.

I do it for a living ... fire away

Off Topic sort of since this is about Javascript, but this topic reminded me of a story I read on Scientific American:

...a New York City–based start-up called Codecademy is aiming to bring programming skills to the masses. During what the company is calling Code Year, students will get an interactive online lesson emailed to them once a week. The service is free, and by the end of the year the company says that students should have a solid working knowledge of JavaScript, a widely-used programming language.

So far over 300,000 people have signed up, proving that there’s a lot of interest in talking to technology on its own terms.

Have you ever tied HTML and XML in the same project?

GAH! I didn't mean to ruin your guy's cheerioes. I was j/k.

Yeah, I have from time to time - anything in particular you were wondering about that? I find it's alright - a lot of the time there's better ways of achieving things than via the XML route, but it certainly has it's place

I reckon it'd be alright as a first language, ya know. It's only really because it has a weird style of object orientation that people mess up with it. But you can get nice results from it fairly quickly (it's a hell of a lot nicer writing GUIs in HTML than it is in, say, C)

To be honest, I'm still getting the hang of HTML5 and CSS3, but so far have found it pretty nifty. I have already completed one web site, and in the process of doing a couple of others. I say that you can learn more by playing, and that is what I'm doing.

Yeah, definitely - I'm a huge fan of learning things 'the hard way' (ie typing everything out from scratch) - and I think the best way to do that is to mess around. I'd say 70% of my programming knowledge to date has come from making things with no practical use whatsoever
(then 20% from university and 10% from actual proper work - that's not to say that university isn't worthwhile, though - it's quite the opposite if you approach it in the right way [study hard when you need to, party hard when you don't ])

10: print "2dimes"
20: goto 10

Yeah, I agree. I have done one website... I could have made it better I would have had time to complete it. The thing that confused me a bit was <table>

You still are using tables to build a web site!! You don't need to use tables anymore. Here's an example of one site I'm working on now:

show

Yes it's a template that I am changing around a bit to fit my needs, as you see there are no tables in it, yet there are two distinct areas. The CSS file sets up the article content, navigation with a background picture, rounded corners on pictures etc. The web site is for C Schultz Media, if you want to see how it is laid out. It still a work in progress, but I should have it done in a couple of weeks. When finished this site will have imbedded video and audio so that you do not need any 3rd party plug-ins or flash, a js picture slider viwer a bunch of other things.

Yeah, the template I used required a JS menu bar that had tables.
