Course Description

To attract good traffic to a website, software engineers use a combination of both functional HTML and designer CSS code together. Building the website’s foundation with HTML is a start, but the true quality of any good website comes from its defined CSS design. This course will dive into what designer functionality you can add to your websites to give them a truly polished appearance.

In this advanced course, you will learn Dreamweaver features that allow you to work more efficiently with HTML and CSS pages. You will work with Cascading Style Sheets and the CSS Designer to stylize text, graphics, and layouts. You will learn two different strategies for working with responsive designs that work on tablets and mobile devices. You will learn how to set up Dreamweaver to work with code more efficiently, how to add comments to your code, and how to save code that you use often so that you don’t have to type it each time. You also will create animations and transitions and object effects on your pages, and incorporate interactive elements, such as slideshows and tabbed content. You will set up preferences and learn about previewing and publishing your site.
