Taking a Web Development class is something that I have always wanted to do and this class did not disapoint. As I mentioned on my home page, I have been working with HTML for a long time now and I have to say I had a lot of fun and this class has been my fovorite class that I have ever taken. My favorite part of this class has to be chapters 7 and 8. Learning forms and CSS has changed the way I look at web pages.

Did you have an "Ah Hah!" moment, if so what was it?

Yes, my “Ah Hah!” moment came in the form of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Now implemented through out this web site. I had seen and worked around them before, but I never knew how or what they were doing on a web page. I only knew that some codes did not work without them. Now having the understanding required to create and properly work with a syle.css document has changed everything for me. I love putting so many tags into the CSS file. This saves time, easly implements uniformity through out your web site, and allows easy changes to be made as well. For instance, this is prety much what my body tags looked like before this class:

< Body Background="Images/BG-Bar3e.jpg" Text="#FFFFFF" Link="#6495ED" Alink="#DC143C" Vlink="#6495ED" Leftmargin="0" Topmargin="0">

< Body>

< Body class="Bar">

What did you like about the class?

I love web development which made this class a lot of fun. I liked making the case projects at the end of each chapter. It made me really want to work a head. Forms were another amazing part of this class. I have never made a E-Mail form before and learning about "Radio Buttons," "Checkboxes," and "Drop down menus" was a blast. I found forms alot easier than I had imagined It was going to be, I had them built up on a pedestal and there were was nothing to it. Like I previously stated Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) has changed everything for me. I could not believe how easy they are and the power behind using it. Being able to change the stlye of your whole web site in 2 clicks, it almost felt like cheating. I enjoyed this class being online because it made it easier to go fishing. However, I like the "in class" instruction better then "online" intruction, I will try to have "in class" courses in the future.
