@Just wished they could handle fonts with a little more options!!!

If you need "non standard" fonts

http://facelift.mawhorter.net/

or as pure js:

http://cufon.shoqolate.com/generate/
and/or:
http://typeface.neocracy.org/

or (the big weapon, a cms):

use a cms like typo3 with graphical headers....

  Hi Matthias


  An earlier link you sent suggested that HTML5 was still under development too.


  I need to be safe and fast so I guess the client is stuck with HTML4 for now. 
Just wished they could handle fonts with a little more options!!! No matter, 
the site is robust on all browsers so far so that too points at staying with V4.


  Which leaves me having to sort the style on every page ..... I better get 
started I guess. 


  Thank you


  Neil Cooke

  Hi Neil,

  HTML5 is still in development, if I'm right ;-)

  Maybe have a look here:
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5

  and/or google for "HTML5 browser support"
  or something like this.

  I'm using this site:
  http://www.webhits.de/deutsch/index.shtml?/deutsch/webstats.html

  to get some information for "browsers in use", too.

  If you have old websites "XHTML + CSS" is ok in my opinion.

  The basic idea behind HTML+CSS is to separate
  content and layout. One of the most important ideas behind this
  is to get "accessible" websites.
  If you like to play around with upcoming "markup languages",
  have a closer look at CSS3, too.
  But if you need a "working website" look for XHTML and CSS2.

  My 5 cents.

  Matthias

    Thanks Matthias and Amir,

    Just graphics .... no customer response, SQL, etc.

    I was thinking of upgrading a client website to CSS, however on second 
thoughts I need to get their new product data online immediately so the CSS 
with my need to get up to speed with it, will need to be a later effort. 

    HTML5 at a very brief look, seems more like it's involved with xml and 
developments like that rather than graphic style so I think eventually, once 
the latest promotion urgency is sorted I think CSS will need to be brought into 
the studio. 

    I will try a free download of the 2010 version of the editor I am familiar 
with at that time I think and see how I go.. I currently use CoffeeCup ... old 
HTML4 .... robust but clunky in it's graphics.

    Thanks again

    Neil Cooke

      Nope,
      should be "not very hard".

      Do you need it as a "professional" ?

        Hi List


        Opinions please ......


        .... is it a huge learning curve to upskill from a basic HTML4 
skillset? 

        No Java or C* skills. Would take HTML5 onboard at the same time. 

        It's all in an editor app of course but I do like to understand the 
coding. 

        TIA 


        Neil Cooke
