Thanks these are very useful.

I've put many of my beginner level lessons for HTML, CSS and Flash online at www.bravemouse.com

I am very busy at the moment, but as soon as I have time I'll be putting up an Intro to Actionscript

The site can be used either by individual users teaching themselves, or by anyone teaching a class.

Do you use delicious? I find it such a fabulous way to share links.

Useful

BlogHer rocks

Wow, thanks so much for the positive feedback! BlogHer rocks! I just got started and already the experience has been beyond what I imagined it would be. Very positive and exciting! I'm very grateful. I've learned things already. I'm very serious about my quest to learn more, becoming more tech savvy, and developing my creative/arstistic blog. Already have met some intelligent and very interesting women. I'm soooo excited about all this!!!

Y'all rock!

I saw this post early and said "You must go answer!" and then I got busy and just now got back to it... and here are two great CEs jumping in to talk to you.

I love these women and I'm so glad you're taking the time to try new things and ask questions.

Awesome!

Essential HTML...

unachicana — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 12:44:47 -0500

Thank you thank you thank you! I will read your article. My experience here at BlogHer has already been great, beyond what I imagined it would be, so soon.

I have learned so much already, here and from Bloggingbasics101 (which led me here), and I think a year from now I will be so much more informed/educated. I'm going to teach myself HTML, (think I'll check if City College has a course, that couldn't hurt), learn everything and anything I need to know, so I can develop this creative/artistic blog idea. I'm really excited, working on this project.

rich text and html

unachicana — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 11:56:42 -0500

Thank you so much! Yep, I had a feeling Rich-Text had some relationship to HTML. Yes, I understand. Rich-Text, then, nullifies HTML, clashes with it, so you have to clear it, i.e. "disable Rich-Text", to use HTML.

I'm glad I found this site. I'm glad I found Bloggingbasics101 which led me to this site. I've already learned a few things I need/want to know. This excites me. If I have learned this much so far, a year from today, whoa, watch out!

When you disable rich text you can use full HTML, which means you can copy code to embed video, Flickr images, and other neat stuff for your post. You can also use HTML tags for things like links and lists.

Here's an article I wrote a while back about Essential HTML for BlogHer Posts.

Yep, It Does Have to Do With HTML

Gena Haskett — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 07:48:45 -0500

There are better people to explain but BlogHer rich text is kinda like word processing, there is hidden code in the background that helps folks do hyperlinks and other stuff.

For those of us that upload video that rich text makes placing the embed video code go nutsy. By switching to Disable Rich-Text and then selecting full HTML we can copy and paste the code directly (do not hit the preview button) and then upload.

The text and video appear correctly.

I added examples using the "#" for IDs as well. Thanks for bringing this to my attention!

Why the class?

krystyn.heide — Thu, 09 Aug 2007 10:08:52 -0500

Thanks Virginia, sorry you couldn't attend.

The examples were for discussing the syntax of the properties and values really, the selector was just for placement. I believe all of the examples on the site would work for ID elements as well, you would just swap the "." out for a "#"

Hope that clarifies.

Interesting stuff

I wasn't able to attend your session so I was very interested in seeing the material you posted. Since I didn't hear what you had to say, I'm wondering why you presented all your CSS rule suggestions as a class? Each example was
.element {some rule;}

Why the class?
