Web Design and all stuff related to it!

So all of us who have worked on websites before, or even have just browsed the net, have come across something called CSS. If youre familiar with HTML at all, youve definitely heard the term. With the way that the internet works, theres always a new update to the way that websites are coded and structured. CSS is a fairly new addition to website programmers tool box. Today we will be going over the language the history of and the pros of using CSS.

What is CSS?

Cascading Style Sheets, CSS, is a coding language used to describe the presentation of a document written in a markup language such as HTML. CSS is used by both the authors of web pages to control colors, fonts, layout, and other web page properties. It is used mainly to separate website structure from website content. This improves accessibility, flexibility and control of content presentation.

CSS History

Style sheets have existed since the beginnings of SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language) in the 70s. Cascading Style Sheets were developed for creating a consistent approach to providing visual presentation information for web documents. As HTML developed over time, it evolved to include a variety of stylistic capabilities for web developers. This gave designers more control over site appearance but also made HTML more complex to write and maintain. Web browser variations made consistency difficult, and web surfers had barely any control over how web pages were displayed.

The W3C began working on a new way to control visual presentation of web content. Out of 9 different proposed style sheet languages, CSS grew from two of the 9, Cascading HTML Style Sheets (CHSS) and Stream-based Style Sheet Proposal (SSP). As work was done on the development of these two languages, CHSS took over, and eventually the H was dropped as these style sheets could be used with other markup languages. CSS1 specification was completed in 1996 and Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 3 was released with limited support for CSS. In 2000, IE 5 was released, with full CSS support. Right now, most browsers support CSS; Including Mozilla FireFox, Internet Explorer, and Netscape Navigator. There are a few discrepancies in how each browser interprets certain CSS properties, but these have been solved with CSS hacks, workarounds, and CSS filters in order to obtain consistent results across web browsers.

Pros some of the advantages of using CSS are:

Visual presentation information for an entire website can be held in one CSS file, which allows for changes to be made cross-site quickly. Different users can have different style sheets. The documents code is reduced in size, since it does not need to contain any code pertaining to the visual presentation of content.

Pages using CSS are easier to edit in the future.

By no means is this a full explanation of CSS, as that would take many articles to fully explain. But I hope that this article explains a little bit about CSS, how it has developed, and some of the pros of using it.

World Wide Web has offered a new platform of business. In the past, hardly a number of business concerns could trade globally. But, with the introduction of web there has been a drastic revolution in the market trends. Today, business companies make websites to reach to the millions across the world.

Ways to make an e commerce web design usable

Business cannot grow if it fails to satisfy the needs and desires of the prospective consumers. An e commerce website must offer easy accessibility to its customers. Some guidelines to design a usable e commerce website design.

“Bill of Rights”: The company must have ready information about the fact that it is working in conformity with the laws of the trade. It is extremely essential to provide the prospective consumers with details that the website has been designed only to meet their needs.

Easy navigation: It becomes essential that an e commerce web design must offer the prospective users the liberty to easily navigate through the web pages. An e commerce websites contains numerous products of sale. The web designers must design according to the needs of the customers.

With increased competition, web designs are constructed to provide the consumers with state- of – the – art facilities to be more at ease. A usable e commerce website design is more attractive to the consumers and the most successful one.

Take a moment to examine this Web page. Everything in your browser window–the blue-and-yellow color scheme, the twelve-point Verdana bold font, and the stock image of the Web-browsing brunette–is a decision under the control of a Web designer. On the technical side, Web developers create and maintain the databases behind some sites and design sites so that search engines could bring you here. If you have a head for code and an eye for design, a career in Web design and development may offer the perfect opportunity to put your skills to work.

A career for the digital age, Web design and development involves the design, construction, and maintenance of Web sites–as well as the files that keep them online. Web designers combine text, photography, animation, and sound to create an intuitive interface–also identifying problems through testing and user feedback. Because Web designers and developers work in a digital medium, their profession combines the creative disciplines of art and design with the technical aspects of computer science and computer system design.

The Final Frontier: Web Design and Development

If you’re interested in a Web design career, you couldn’t have picked a better time. With the dot-com bust now almost ten years behind us, the next generation of Web pioneers is forging a new frontier. Over the next decade, continued growth in the online community is expected to expand job prospects for Web designers and developers by 14 to 20 percent–faster than the average for all occupations. Computer systems design and related services (a sector of the economy that includes Web designers and developers) is expected to add 489,000 new jobs during the decade between 2006 and 2016.

While your career prospects are bright, your potential to earn a competitive living may prove even more attractive. According to a 2007 Salary Guide released by Robert Half International, annual salaries for Web designers range from $47,500 to $69,500. For Web developers, annual salaries ranged from $54, 750 to $81,500. Senior Web developers enjoyed even more competitive earnings, with salaries ranging from $71,000 to $102,000.

Education for Web Design and Development

If you aspire to the income of today’s most senior Web design and development pioneers, postsecondary education is an important stepping stone. Although you can find entry-level Web design or Web development work with an associate’s degree or certificate, employers generally prefer applicants with a bachelor’s degree and professional experience. Thankfully, you can gain education and relevant experience through a number of college degree programs.

Design coursework can provide you with a solid aesthetic foundation in typography, color theory, and writing for interactive media–while courses in scripting language, content management systems, digital media, Web page scripting, scalable vector graphics, interactive motion scripting, and interface design can help prepare you for the more tech-heavy responsibilities of a Web design career. Additionally, college degrees for Web designers and developers often include elective courses in project management, argument and debate, English composition, and mathematics to round out your professional skill set.

Between the attractive compensation, expanding job opportunities, and the wide availability of education for careers in Web design and development, you have ample reason to check out degree programs at local colleges and universities, or even online programs. Don’t wait, though–after all, the final frontier won’t wait for you!

In our house, we have lots of motion picture discs. Purchasing a DVD, when it comes out on sale, is a lot cheaper than taking the entire family to the theater. Although we have quite a collection, from several different genres, some sit on the shelf and collect dust. The others are played until they start skipping scenes or get stuck. A disc cleaner and polisher helps, but eventually the best of our selection will cease to work, and the store will no longer have that particular disc for sale. Therefore, learning how to copy a protected DVD movie can ensure a backup copy will always be available.

There are many families like ours ? with huge collections of favorite DVDs, which become scratched and useless. Quick fixes like cleaners and polishers can help but they do not solve the problem. Purchasing multiple copies of the same DVD is too costly. But what about Nero? Have you heard about it?

It is very unpleasant that you have to break the protection codes of DVDs if you want to make a copy of it. But it is quite logical that there will be protection codes. It can?t be the other way, when so many people are making tons of pirated copies and this hurts recording studios. Of course, recording studios will take the measures to protect themselves!

My idea is that making spare copies for personal use is OK. I see that many people share this belief and the good news is that there are talented programmers (and even whole companies), who know how to break the protection codes. As a result there are several good programs, which can help you copy a protected DVD to your hard drive and from there – to a blank DVD.

If you are not familiar with the process of copying DVDs, you might wonder why you can?t copy the DVD directly to a blank disk. The reason is that you need to compress the DVD first and then copy it because if you don?t compress it (and remove all the junk), it will not fit on the blank disk.

But if you use Nero to copy your protected DVDs, you can forget about all these concerns. Just a few clicks are required to copy your precious DVD. And what is more important ? the copy will be as good as the original and you can watch it whenever you want and as many times as you like because you will have peace of mind that if you damage one disk, you have a backup.

Copying a protected DVD might seem too much of a hassle but it isn?t because if you don?t do it, the only alternative is to lose that movie. This doesn?t sound very exciting, right? Isn?t it much better when you can watch your favorite movie over and over again and not worry about damaging it?

I originally taught myself HTML 4.0 a few years ago, but I found it difficult to make the transition to using xHTML with CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). However, due to being involved with a small website I was forced to make sense of it. In this article I will run through the practical implications of switching between the two, in other words what you will need to do to make your HTML work with stylesheets.

I’m not going to go over the history of xHTML here, but you should take note that there are many ‘tags’ that have been deprecated and should be avoided in when using xHTML.

The first important difference in xHTML comes in the form of its syntax. The language is case sensitive, so it is all written in lowercase, no more use of caps! Secondly, ‘tags’, or elements to be technical, are now classified into two types: those that ‘contain’ data, and those that are ‘empty’. An example of the former might be a paragraph element, which has a closing tag. That which is in between these two tags is the ‘contained data’. For instance, a sentence is understood to be data. An example of an empty tag could be a line break, and is written slightly differently than in HTML 4.0, instead of having a forward-slash just after the opening bracket the forward-slash must be written just before the closing bracket and must be preceded by a space. Other ‘empty’ types include the image element and the horizontal rule element .

Another point to bear in mind is that because xHTML is supposed to be compatible across various devices, all images must have alternative descriptions (which means you have to make use of the ‘alt’ attribute in image elements, it’s no longer just an option). Similarly, you’ll be making extensive use of the ‘id’ attribute in xHTML (similar to the ‘name’ attribute, but used differently – see below).

The biggest hurdle for myself personally was learning the syntax of CSS. There are actually three ways of using CSS, of which one is to create a separate document with a .css extension. This file will contain all the styling attributes of the elements in your xHTML code. You can also place CSS in the ‘head’ element (using ’style’ as an element), or you can embed it into an element anywhere in your code (for this you would use the ‘style’ attribute). Using an external file can be useful as changes made to this one document cascade throughout your entire website, hence eliminating the need to change the code on each page. The syntax basically consists of a ’selector’, which can either be an ‘id’ selector, a class selector or a generic class selector . So, for instance, I’ve given an ‘img’ element the id “MyImg”, then I go to my css section/file and create the selector #MyImg {}. Here’s where the syntax comes in. the # symbol means that I’ve created an id selector, so what follows in the curly brackets will apply to all elements with the id “MyImg”. An example might look something like this:

#MyImg {

width: 200px;

height: 100px;

border: 0px

}

Notice that I use a colon in place of the equals sign to assign values. If you fail to do this your styles will not be applied. Also, each attribute is followed by a semicolon which separates them. If you do not follow this syntax when using CSS your styling will not come into effect. The last thing you need to know to get started is how to link your external CSS document to your xHTML document. Just nest a element in your ‘head’ element and you’re ready to go. There are plenty of new ways to perform tasks such as positioning in CSS. Have fun playing around with these new possibilities!

The author resource box is a key element for any successful article submission. That’s the spot where you give your name, a brief author bio, a reason to click-through to your website, and also that vital link through to your website.

Usually you’ll have two formats to choose from when submitting a resource box:

- You can submit a plain text one, where the URL is written out as a website address

- Many publishers such as article directories also give you the opportunity of submitting a resource box containing some HTML code.

With the HTML format, you can take things up a few notches by specifying “anchor text” that you’d like to hyperlink to lead back to your website.

Your anchor text should be your keywords. By hyperlinking your keywords (rather than just hyperlinking a URL), you are able to send a more powerful message to Google about the keywords they should associate with your article and your website.

It sounds technical, but it really isn’t that difficult to create an HTML resource box–pretty much anyone can create one if they keep the following guidelines in mind:

1) What are your keywords?

This is the step that many folks skip, but it’s really not optional if you want to go the HTML route.

The whole point after all is to use your keywords as anchor text for the link back to your website. It goes without saying that in order to hyperlink your keywords, you need to know what they are!

If you’re not sure what your keywords are, it pays to do some research, since all of your marketing efforts will involve an awareness of what your keywords are.

Some of the more popular keyword researching tools are:

Google Keywords Tool (free): https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

WordTracker (fee based, but has a free trial): http://www.wordtracker.com/

2) Hyperlink your keywords (rather than your name, your business name)

I see this a lot–an author has taken the time to anchor link his or her anchor text, but rather than linking keywords, they’ve decided to link their name or business name.

Now, a keyword would be something that a searcher would be typing into Google in hopes of reaching a website like yours. They don’t know enough to type in your exact name, but they know the general topic or question to search for.

So, it’s kind of pointless to hyperlink your name, as that is likely not a keyword term that anyone would be searching for.

What you’re going for is a high ranking for your keyword terms, so be certain that you’re hyerlinking your keywords rather than your name.

3) Try to limit your anchor text to 3 words or less.

This is just a general guideline to remind you that there is no need to hyperlink the entire contents of your resource box or entire sentences. Again, the only text you need to link is your keyword term. It is a good rule of thumb to limit your anchor text to 3 words or less, as some publishers don’t like seeing more than 3 words linked.

4) Remember to include an author bio.

At it’s heart, a resource box is an author bio. Its purpose is to give a little information about the author. Tell the readers your name and then a little about your business and why you’re an authority on the topic you’ve just written about.

It is not just about inserting your link–you should state your name, give some author bio info, give a link to your website and give the reader a reason why they should click through to your website.

5) Use a single link (rather than multiple links).

Most publishers will have a limit on the number of characters you can include in your resource box (usually 450 words or less). Since you have such a limited amount of space in your resource box, spend your time persuading the reader to go to just one site. A resource box peppered with links is distracting, and when you include multiple links you actually decrease your odds that the reader will click on any of them.

The next time you write an article, take some extra time crafting your HTML resource box and follow these guidelines. Your effort and restraint will be rewarded!

We are sure that this is one of the most important question which most companies find difficult to get answers to. Obviously, there are both advantages & disadvantages of designing a website on your own and getting it done by a professional, as it is said, “Every coin has two sides”. So here, we will discuss about the same.

Web Design Temple provides professional web designing services. Backed by the creative strength of our professionals, we are able to deliver creative & visually appealing websites, which rank higher on search engines and bring business for you.

Most of the people think that it is visual appearance that determines a site’s success or failure but in fact it is Usability that determines site’s faith no doubt that visual appearance does have involvement in site’s success but first thing is Utility. After all it’s all about user; finally a user has to use the site and has to decide everything. So, most of the designs we do see over different websites are user-centric. Before talking about principles of web design, first take a look at how user look or interact with a website and their basic patterns of behavior.

Visitors glance at every new page and scan some of the text and normally do click at something of their interest on a website and if they don’t find it of their interest then Back button is clicked and search is continued. In all this process there may be the large parts of text at which they even do not even look at. Overall users do appreciate quality content even if a page is filled with lots of advertisements and is not well-designed then too they don’t mind reading it. Second thing to notice about them is that they don’t read they just scan the whole thing and normally they are impatient i.e. they do return if they don’t find what they were searching for or if the page takes too much of time to load. They usually follow their intuition and want to have complete control.

After having a glance at user’s behavior let’s talk about the basic rules of web design now the principles of web design are:

Rule #1 Web Page must be obvious and self explanatory – Website’s navigation and architecture must be user friendly in all respects. A web designer’s basic objective must be to don’t let users think and eliminate question marks related with usability of the site.

Rule # 2 Keep user requirements minimal – Let user explore, discover and test your site and services without filling up long web forms and forcing them to share their private data.

Rule # 3 Attract users – Integrate images and web 2.0 elements in your website to make it more attractive. Make your website eye catching providing both static and dynamic content.

Rule # 4 Make uses of Modern web designs – Simple 1-2-3-done steps, large buttons with visual effects are definitely better as compared to simple web elements.

Rule # 5 Effective Writing – Fine-tune your writing approach to users’ preferences and browsing habits. Talk business; avoid company specific or unfamiliar technical names.

Rule # 6 Keep it simple – should be the fundamental objective of the site design. From the user point of view, the best site design option is to keep pure text without much advertisement in it.

Rule #7 Divide the content – into digestible pieces of information to reduce the load cognitive load for the visitors as complex structures are harder to read, scan and analyze and work with it.

Rule # 8 Express yourself effectively – Follow the visible language which has three basic fundamentals as organize i.e. provide user with a clear consistent structure, economize which includes elements like simplicity, clarity, emphasis and distinctiveness and communicate i.e. match your expression with user capabilities.

Rule # 9 Conventions are not always bad – Conventional designs doesn’t result in a boring website as they reduce the learning curve and can help you gain users’ assurance and belief.

Rule # 10 Test early Test often – This so called theory should be applied to every web design project. Testing is a repetitive process i.e. one must keep testing to produce useful results.

Modifying Fonts In Dreamweaver Using HTML & CSS

Like most WYSWYG (What You See Is What You Get) HTML editors, Dreamweaver has the ability to simply highlight text and change the font, color etc…

But there are two distinct ways that you can alter text: HTML and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets).

In Dreamweaver, these 2 methods get mixed together sometimes, and it can be a bit confusing as to which method you are using.

On the one hand, if you choose the CSS option, Dreamweaver will create some CSS definitions at the top of your webpage. The CSS definition at the top of the page might look like:

And the text that you highlight in the page might have code that looks like:

light blue text

There is also the option to use tradtional HTML to change fonts and colors:

The code that created the above text might look like:

Like this

So which one should you use and how should you choose whether to use HTML or CSS?

CSS is wonderful does have it’s uses, and some people may prefer to use it all the time, but I prefer to use it in select instances where it is decidedly the best option.

To change your HTML/CSS preferences, go to:

Edit > Preferences in Dreamweaver

And then check or uncheck the use CSS instead of HTML tags box depending on which option you want.

I also recommend using external CSS style sheets on your websites. Dreamweaver makes it easy, and using an external sheet, you can update the style of thousands of webpages in seconds.

Web Design:

The web design is an essential element of every website, the layout of a page, typography, color schemes, usability are some critical aspects that a designer or developer keeps in mind while making a website. A sloppy website may not be able to attract many visitors, as users tend to seek attractive and informative websites. Some well developed websites leave a strong impact on the visitor, and makes him visit it again. In the recent decades website industry have flourished well, as businesses preferred going online in order to reach global customers. This paved a path for new businesses to come online to form a bridge between the designers and clients facilitating them both. This concept is called Web Design Quote where the designers and businesses or clients interact with each other.

Web Design Quote:

A web design quote is the process using which the businesses can ask for prices for their dream new projects, or new B2B and B2C ventures before they commit any money to the venture itself. This gives them the liberty to get carefully tailored estimates for their new online ventures, without actually putting in any deposits because basically a web design quote is a free service being offered by almost all web design firms across the world. The basic idea of a Web Design Quote is that the businesses that are looking for professional web designers for their websites login and post their projects, the designers on the other hand, pick the projects of their choice and place their bids. The businesses then have an option of selecting the appropriate bid. In this way Web Design Price estimate gets beneficial for both the business clients and the designers.

Another great advantage of Web Design Service is that the businesses do not have to look out for a good developer in their area; they have an opportunity to get services of designers from all over the world, this enhances the quality of work. On the other hand the developers do not need to market themselves and look for projects of their choice; instead they can choose from a list of projects though Web Design Quote Request process.

Designers and businesses are not charged through Web Design price requests, rather they have to pay a minimal percentage from the transaction of the projects. This again varies from platform to platform and some platforms where you can request web design quotes do not have any fees for joining or bidding. In addition, the designers have the right to keep the client for life.

The process is simple, the businesses / developers register with Web Design Quote platform, fill in the form that requires basic information about the business or developer, mode of payment, experience (in case of developer), purpose etc. The profile is then created and the members are free to interact with the respective members throughout the world. Web Design Service Platforms offers different categories of developers and designers for businesses and different categories of projects for designers to choose from.

The idea of Web Design Quote became popular worldwide as it provided a cheaper and effective way for designers as well as businesses to interact with each other. With in the past few years, thousands of businesses and developers have benefited from it. Along with professional developers Web Design Platforms provide a wonderful opportunity for developers and students who just started their career.

E-Commerce Web Design Quote:

One type of Web Design Quote is called E-Commerce Web Design Quote, the difference being here is that instead of interacting with the developers, the businesses directly put their requirements on the websites that offer E-Commerce Web Design Quote, and they are offered the quoted rates according to their specifications.

Ecommerce Web Design Quote is specifically more suitable for businesses that have less web designing and web building requirements, all they need to do is to place their specifications and get the respective rates.

Content Management Web Design Prices:

Content Management Web Design is considered to be the future of web designing, since entrepreneurs don’t want to waste their time in running after web design companies for minor updates. Content Management Web Design provides the solution for such business owners, some of the key features of Content Management are listed below:

· Adding / removing /editing of pages

· Updating content within each page

· Addition of images where needed

· Updating contact information

· Showing updated listings

· Adding new tips on the industry everyday (The spawn of blogging).

· And many extra features

For some organizations hiring a permanent designer may be more expensive than hiring an outside company who takes care of the company’s website. A well implemented Content Management Web Design can enhance the role of a specialist. While some people claim that the designers and developers will suffer from Content Management Web Design, as it would make them idle. The statement is wrong, because more companies offering Content Management Web Design will open new opportunities for web designers and developers, as these companies would need them; hence in broader view point the final out come of Content Management is quiet promising.

The prices of Content Management Web Design vary from services to services that the companies offer, a business opting for more services is charged accordingly, but the outcome is worth it.

Simple Website Design Estimate:

No one can really tell the exact prices of Simple Web Designs, as the prices vary according to the specification and the requirements of the website. It might seem a little complicated, but usually designers and developers charge according to their skill and experience and the complexity of website; therefore there is no exact Website Design Estimate. However an average estimate can be drawn on the basis of the rates of many companies. They are given below:

Basic Simple Web Design $350 – $800 for homepage and $75 – $100 for each extra page

E-Commerce Web Sites $1300 – Up

Custom Application (ASP, Perl, PHP) $1200 – Up

JavaScript Programming $75 – $200 per Script

Flash $100 – $500

Database Development $1000 – Up

Search Engine Optimization $50 – $100 per page

Search Engine Submission $300 – $500 per 50 search engines.

Again, as mentioned above these rates may change from project to project and from designer to designer.

Flash Web Design Price Range:

Again there are no fix rates for Flash Web Design, as they vary from designer to designer and the complexity of the design, new designers may charge very cheap for simple projects, whereas professional and skilled designers may charge very high. Based on the analysis of rates offered by different websites for Flash Web Design, an estimated range of rates can be drawn.

Usually the Flash Web Design Price Range can be from $5 to $5000.
