Dreamweaver CS5 (Part 2): An Introduction to CSS
(Academic)
This hands-on short course is designed for those who would like to build or update a web site using Adobe Dreamweaver for a project at Virginia Tech. Participants in this session will use Dreamweaver, work with CSS, and focus on incorporating VT design elements into a web site. With CSS, you can decide how headings and other elements of a web site should look without having to rebuild those elements on every page within a site. Changing the CSS in a header, for instance, will result in those changes being reflected in all associated web pages. In short, CSS is an incredible time saver for those maintaining web sites and makes it easier to control layout across browsers and platforms. In this course, we will focus on using CSS "divs" to structure the layout of web content, practicing adherence to Web 2.0 standards and approaches associated with web accessibility. Participants will also be provided with university branded images and an overview of the university color palette for use on their departmental/center websites. This course is open to all faculty, staff and graduate students.
Previous experience is not required, however taking the Dreamweaver Part 1 course or having an understanding of HTML coding is highly recommended. More information...
