Introduction to HTML/CSS

This class will run for four nights:
Monday, June 3 - 6:30PM-9:00PM
Wednesday, June 5 - 6:30PM-9:00PM
Monday, June 10 - 6:30PM-9:00PM
Wednesday, June 12 - 6:30PM-9:00PM

Learn to build your own website! Learn how to better control the one you've already got! No prior web design experience necessary. You will leave this class with a simple website, built with HTML5 and CSS3.

Tech Requirements:

• Your laptop.
• A modern browser with either Chrome (https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/) and the WebDeveloper (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/web-developer/bfbameneiokkgbdmiekhjnmfkcnldhhm?utm_source=gmail) extension or Firefox (http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/) and Firebug (http://getfirebug.com/) installed.
• A text editor. We recommend Komodo Edit (http://www.activestate.com/komodo-edit/downloads). (It's free and available for both Mac and PC, don't download Komodo IDE - it's different!).

• The $75 entrance fee covers all four nights. This is the SAME as our first class (from April 13 and 20), back again by popular demand!
