You will explore the practicalities of building sophisticated sites in a browser and platform independent manner, learn the advantages gained from a standards compliant approach and focus on working with style sheets to deliver layout and design. This is a two day hands-on course utilising a range of practical real-world exercises. The content of this course is constantly revised to take advantage of new web developments.
