Hi all,
Not to change the subject from our other very enlightening thread, but I
could use a little input on a project I'm working on...
I developed an html tutorial a few years ago called HTML 4 Rookies. It was
fairly successful, but I got too busy to keep it current, and a buyer came
along a few weeks before what promised to be a very dismal Christmas for my
kids, so I sold it.
I've regretted that decision from the moment I signed the contract, and have
decided to create a new tutorial site.
Here's where I could use some help:
The old tutorial was written while 3.2 was the standard, and the sequence of
lessons was fairly obvious. I taught the basic structure of the html
document, followed by text manipulation tags, then hyperlinks and images,
and ended the whole sheebang with Tables.
But now, we have things like style sheets to deal with, and I have no idea
when I should introduce them. Should I teach style first, or somewhere in
the middle, or should I leave it for the end? If I teach them first, that
would eliminate the need for some of the older tags, but I'm afraid that
might be way too confusing for a novice.
I've been a member of this list for a few years now, and first learned HTML
by religiously studying every digest that showed up in my email. I trust
that the same people who taught me HTML can lead me into a better way to
teach it.
Thanks,
Larry Dozier
