Getting somewhere…
May 27, 2009
I finally started learning about CSS, and it wasn’t as difficult as I thought it would be. Even if I don’t know how to do everything at the moment, it at least makes sense to me, and I can just look up how to do it. Since I don’t have Dreamweaver, or anything similar, and can’t be bothered to use the uni computers, I’m doing everything in notepad. I think this makes me learn a lot more, which is probably beneficial.
Here is what I have so far:
I guess it doesn’t look like much, but I’ve already had a lot of difficulties. Like getting things to center! I thought that would be one of the easiest things, but I couldn’t find how to do it at all in the text book. And getting some of the text centered on top of an image, but not let its background go behind the image, was kind of hard, but I found out about the z-index and all was good. Getting it to this stage was probably the easy stuff, so… I don’t know how I’m going to go with everything else.
I haven’t attempted the menu yet, I guess that’s the next step. Also, I haven’t tried it in a different browser. I don’t know much about how different browsers affect stuff, so I should check that and see if it gets completely destroyed. Especially since it is supposed to display properly in Firefox 2+.
