CSS style sheet

CSS Style Sheet is the essential tool for web design, it's like the main structure with a web, as long as a web designer understand CSS Style Sheet, he/she can complete the whole web site.

Learning CSS Style Sheet

In David's Class, we used one morning, more precisely, we used 4 hours around to learn CSS Style Sheet.

Most of the students in class aren't familiar with CSS Style Sheet, but the module requires us to understand this roughly in a couple of hours.

To be honestly, I remembered I spent several times after class to practise CSS Style Sheet, every time I spent couple of hours, so several times altogether should be more than 20 hours.

I think to understand CSS Style Sheet is more than important to remember the process.

In fact, the more I immerse myself in Dreamweaver, the more I discovered that if you understand what this particular language is talking about, it isn't difficult to remember it, because it comes naturally.

If you don't understand

I always got stuck during practice, and the troubles're spreaded into different procedures. I realise that computer language is the same as other languages.

If you practise more of this kind of programme, you will be very quickly to grab the tool.

For instance, it's like if you practise more about a particular composer's music pieces, like Mozart, Beethoven, you'll understand what kind of character/style this particular musician possesses.

So in this case, knowing a range of softwares, such as Photoshop,Indesign,Final Cut Pro, etc, these all will help to understand Dreamweaver.

My online report

the report I write to David about my online learning, I'm kind of saying learning CSS in one morning isn't enough.

Indeed what I mean is if he could spend more time to explain other things, such as creating flash button/text/formatting text etc, that will be great.

To create a website, the web design is essential, if the course contribute more training about design, that will be more helpful.

Making Flash Video, Problematic!!

One procedure is wrong, the whole process is ruined, probablly now I understand why people spend couple and couple of hours in front of computer! my past years are rarely having such kind of experience!

Don't be afraid to change your direction in life (Fortune Cookies). the saying is fit my brief here.

Asking help from friends

I called Chris and Laura during my uploading. God, where's the problem, tried so many times, what the hell, why the video isn't come out?

Anyway, I have to solve the problem, Chris and Laura should be very familiar with the process, really need help from friends.

Both of them are podcaster in our websites, londonAlternative and LondonOutLoud Alternatively.

Problem Solving Process

Oh, I see!! here is the reason why I can't upload my video. Before inserting flash video into dreamweaver, I need to produce two files from flash, one is fla, the other is flv.

The one to upload is flv. So during producing flash video process, I need to go to Stream From Flash Video Streaming Service. then after couple of "Next", the consequence will be coming out 2 files, one is fla, the other is flv.

Again meeting trouble

I just feel the problem will be solved finally, can't imagine that after inserting flash video into dreamweaver, the video still didn't come out.

Only couple of days later, I realised the process is absolutely right after Laura's instruction, just because my pc is blocked all of the strange elements, so I just need to close the block.
