This lesson covers the general techniques for working with HTML text within Dreamweaver. Using an exercise from our textbook, students are first introduced to basic concepts for structuring text using paragraphs, headings, and list. In doing so, they start to learn the relationship between the design view and code side of a web page. Later in the lesson, they are introduced to how CSS can be applied and edited using Dreamweaver CS3 for styling text as well.
Since the early days of the web, the only reliable way to get movement on your site was through Flash, or more recently, Javascript. But now, with WebKit and Mozilla leading the way, transformations and transitions can be done with pure CSS, even on mobile devices. And for those in need of even more movement, CSS3 provides for keyframe-based animations. In this session, we’ll take a look at all of the possibilities and explore what works and where - from the simplest effects, to creative usability enhancements including the combination of CSS with mobile Javascript frameworks.

Throughout the years, the Swiss Army Knife has been the trusted companion of scouts and explorers alike, and for front-end developers, CSS has been a trusty, if sometimes frustrating, companion. And just as blades, scissors and sundry tools have been added to the Swiss Army Knife, with CSS3, we have new tools and implements of creativity, and some tried and true tools have been honed and sharpened. Of course the key to success is knowing which of the many tools to use and how to wield them in a given situation. Join Stephanie Rewis as she explores some shiny enhancements to favorite old tools like backgrounds and borders, as well as slices and dices with new tools like CSS masks and more!
