Designing Websites with CSS

Training Provided by Digital Training & Designs Our CSS training provides you with the right training solutions to help you learn CSS for creating web pages. Check our schedule for class dates and prices for CSS training in Dallas, Texas or call us for private training at your site. In this course, you will be introduced to the concepts, techniques, properties, and values of CSS in a sequence that reflects a typical building up of design rules. You will begin with colors, since in many cases the colors used for a site project are dictated by the organization's existing color scheme. Color is also the simplest part of CSS, so it's a great place to start. Then you will learn how to control typography using text and font properties. Next, you'll explore the layout-oriented styles of CSS, including margins, padding, and absolute and relative positioning. Once you have established your layout, you can apply the finishing touches on your design, which might include customizing cursors, links, and forms, creating alternate style sheets, and many other techniques.
